Objectives: Oxidative stress is an important pathophysiological mechanism in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). We aimed to evaluate serum xanthine oxidase (XO) (as a generator of reactive oxygen species), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx), paraoxonase (PON1) activities, nitric oxide (NO) and thiol levels in patients with NASH.
