Molecular mechanisms of the trauma stress of different origins in children to some extent is related to the quantitative changes of blood superoxide dismutase, catalase, ceruloplasmin, transferrin, cytochromes b5, b558III, b558IV and suprol. Non adequate changes of antioxidant (superoxide dismutase, catalase, ceruloplasmin, transferrin) and newly discovered prooxidant (cytochromes b5, b558III, b558IV, suprol) metalloproteins, as well as serum and erythrocyte cytochrome b5 depend on characteristic and duration of trauma stress caused by extremity fractures in children. This is due to the different mechanisms of adaptation to trauma stress.
