The mechanism of nickel-induced pathogenesis remains elusive.
To examine effects of nickel exposure on plasma oxidative and anti-oxidative biomarkers.
Biomarker data were collected from 154 workers with various levels of nickel exposure and from 73 controls. Correlations between nickel exposure and oxidative and anti-oxidative biomarkers were determined using linear regression models.
Workers with a exposure to high nickel levels had significantly lower levels of anti-oxidants (glutathione and catalase) than those with a lower exposure to nickel; however, only glutathione showed an independent association after multivariable adjustment.
Exposure to high levels of nickel may reduce serum anti-oxidative capacity.
镍诱导发病的机制仍不清楚。
研究镍暴露对血浆氧化和抗氧化生物标志物的影响。
收集了154名不同镍暴露水平工人和73名对照者的生物标志物数据。使用线性回归模型确定镍暴露与氧化和抗氧化生物标志物之间的相关性。
高镍暴露工人的抗氧化剂（谷胱甘肽和过氧化氢酶）水平显著低于低镍暴露工人；然而，多变量调整后只有谷胱甘肽显示出独立相关性。
高镍暴露可能会降低血清抗氧化能力。
