Increased oxidative stress as a result of excessive production of
lipid peroxidation and reactive nitrogen species in association
with disturbances in antioxidant defense system have been
implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases, most notably
oral cancer. Thus, estimation of oxidant antioxidant status in oral
squamous cell carcinoma patients could serve as a useful marker in
choosing the correct therapy and also to monitor the effectiveness
of such therapy and tumor recurrence. Also antioxidant therapy
might prove useful in preventing the adverse effects caused by
chemotherapy and radiotherapy.As free radicals are considered to be
involved in the development of pre-cancer, determination of
oxidant-antioxidant status in these patients may be helpful in
successful management, thereby arresting it in early stages and
avoiding the possible consequences of progression to malignancy.
