Article Synopsis
- Oxidative stress arises when reactive free radicals accumulate in cells, and the MnSOD enzyme helps detoxify these harmful oxygen species.
- The study examined the role of the SOD2 (rs4880; p.Val16Ala) genetic variant in 254 children, including 127 with asthma (both atopic and non-atopic) and 127 healthy controls.
- Results showed that the SOD2*rs4880 variant is significantly linked to a reduced incidence of bronchial asthma in children, suggesting it may confer protective effects against the condition.
