The aim of this study was to examine both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant status in a select group of children with
juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
(
JRA
), living in Cairo, Egypt. The plasma concentrations of albumin,
ceruloplasmin
, vitamin C, vitamin E as well as erythrocyte superoxide dismutase and whole blood glutathione peroxidase activities were all significantly decreased in the presence of
JRA
compared to those without
JRA
. Unlike these antioxidant factors, vitamin A and its carrier (e.g. retinol binding protein), which have very little or no antioxidant property, remained unaffected by
JRA
. These results suggest that the children with
JRA
are subject to oxidative stress.
