It was found that the blood serum level of reduced glutathione, which decreases in pathology, increased more significantly in patients receiving melaxen as compared to the group of patients receiving the standard treatment. More significant changes in the activity of caspase-1 and caspase-3, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase toward the control values were observed during the combination therapy. The correction in the melatonin level under the influence of melaxen apparently had a positive effect on the free-radical homeostasis in patients, which resulted in more pronounced changes in the investigated parameters towards the normal values as compared to the basic treatment.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Проведено сравнительное изучение активности каспаз-1 и -3, глутатионовой антиоксидантной системы и NADPH-генерирующих ферментов: глюкозо-6-фосфатдегидрогеназы и NADP-изоцитратдегидрогеназы, а также степени фрагментации ДНК в крови пациентов с хроническим алкогольным гепатитом при применении базового лечения и комбинированной терапии, включающей мелаксен. Установлено, что содержание восстановленного глутатиона в сыворотке крови больных, снижающееся при патологии, при приеме мелаксена возрастало в большей степени, чем у больных, получающих стандартное лечение. При проведении комбинированной терапии происходило более значительное изменение активностей каспаз-1 и -3, глутатионредуктазы, глутатионпероксидазы, глутатион-S-трансферазы, а также глюкозо-6-фосфатдегидрогеназы и NADP-изоцитратдегидрогеназы в сторону контрольных значений. Фрагментация ДНК, выделенной из лейкоцитов крови, после проведения лечения уменьшалась, причем в большей степени после приема мелаксена на фоне базисной терапии. Вместе с тем включение мелаксена в терапию способствовало более значительному восстановлению активности маркерных ферментов повреждения гепатоцитов: γ-глутамилтранспептидазы, аланинаминотрансферазы, аспартатаминотрансферазы. По-видимому, коррекция уровня мелатонина под действием мелаксена оказывала позитивное воздействие на свободнорадикальный гомеостаз организма больных, что приводило к более выраженному изменению исследуемых параметров по сравнению с базисным лечением.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>chronic alcoholic hepatitis</kwd><kwd>glutathione peroxidase</kwd><kwd>glutathione reductase</kwd><kwd>reduced glutathione</kwd><kwd>glutathione-S-transferase</kwd><kwd>caspases</kwd><kwd>melaxen</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>восстановленный глутатион</kwd><kwd>глутатионпероксидаза</kwd><kwd>глутатионредуктаза</kwd><kwd>глутатион-S-трансфераза</kwd><kwd>каспазы</kwd><kwd>мелаксен</kwd><kwd>фрагментация ДНК</kwd><kwd>хронический алкогольный гепатит</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>[1] Boyer J.L., Blum H.E., Maier K.P., Sauerbruch T ., Stalder G.A. // Liver cirrhosis and its development. // Dordrecht: Kluwer Acad.
