Article Synopsis
- Recent research indicates a link between substance use disorder (SUD) and an imbalance in oxidative stress, with increased reactive oxygen species and decreased antioxidant defenses observed in affected individuals.
- A systematic review found individuals with SUD exhibit higher levels of oxidants (like malondialdehyde) and lower levels of antioxidants (such as superoxide dismutase) compared to healthy individuals.
- The study highlights that those with alcohol use disorder experience greater oxidative stress than those with stimulant use disorder, and that those undergoing abstinence have weaker antioxidant responses than those currently using substances.
