Evaluation of Lipid Peroxidation and Oxidative DNA Damage in Patients With Periodontitis and Hyperlipidemia

Abstract

In this study, serum MDA and 8-OHdG were found to be highest in the HLp group. The increased levels of MDA and 8-OHdG in HLp patients may be a result of a harmful oxidative status in association with hyperlipidemia and periodontitis.
