Abstract: | Abstract Background The pathogenesis chronic urticaria (CU) hasn't been fully understood. In recent years, it has been shown that thiol-disulphide homoeostasis, as an antioxidant system, plays important roles in both healthy individuals and various diseases. In different ischaemia-reperfusion states, high oxidative stress causes ischaemia-modified albumin (IMA) generation. |
