ABSTRACT
Oxidative stress seen in bronchial asthma can dama-ge different kinds of biomolecules; this oxidant/antioxidant imbalance results from an increment in the production of oxygen reactive species. The utilization of exogenous antioxidant agents or promoters of endogenous antioxidants can be seen as an alternative therapy for asthma that is worth discussing.
