Notes: All data presented as mean ± SD (n=147 for AD patients and n=160 for healthy controls). Student’s t-test used to evaluate statistically significant differences (P<0.05).
Abbreviations: GSH, glutathione; AD, Alzheimer’s disease; SD, standard deviation; SOD, superoxide dismutase; ALT, alamine aminotransferase; AST, asparate aminotransferase.
