Exercise did not affect oxidative status in AA and SCA individuals. (a) Free ROS/RNS levels were significantly higher in SCA compared to healthy (AA) subjects but exercise did not affect free ROS/RNS levels. (b) Lipid peroxidation, represented by MDA concentration, and (c) total antioxidant capacity, represented by trolox equivalent capacity, were comparable between the groups and not affected by exercise. Data are mean ± s.d. of n = 8 AA and n = 8 SCA.
