Özet

Objectives: Obesity is associated with oxidative stress due to the overproduction of free radicals in some accompanying states, such as hyperglycemia, elevated lipid levels and chronic inflammation. Free radical accumulation may modify the structure of human serum albumin, generating ischemia-modified albumin (IMA), and increased serum levels of IMA have been linked to obesity-related diseases and oxidative damage. The association of IMA levels with oxidative stress and insulin resistance (IR) has not been evaluated in the context of obesity. The aim of this study is to determine IMA levels in the context of obesity and their relationship with oxidative status and insulin resistance.
