Oxidative stress markers in affective disorders
Marcin Siwek,Marcin Siwek,Magdalena Sowa-Kućma,Magdalena Sowa-Kućma,Dominika Dudek,Dominika Dudek,Krzysztof Styczeń,Bernadeta Szewczyk,Katarzyna Kotarska,Paulina Misztak,Agnieszka Pilc,Małgorzata Wolak,Małgorzata Wolak,Gabriel Nowak,Gabriel Nowak +14 more
TL;DR: Animal and human studies providing evidence that oxidative stress is implicated in the pathophysiology and treatment of depression and bipolar disorder are reviewed, introducing new potential targets for the development of therapeutic interventions based on antioxidant compounds.

TL;DR: Findings show that increased sIL-1RA, sTNF-R1, and TBARS levels may be trait markers of depression, while increased sil-6R Levels may be a state marker of melancholia and an acute phase of depression.
Zinc as a marker of affective disorders

TL;DR: It seems, however, that the measurement of the concentrations of zinc might be in the future a component of the battery of tests; of markers of immune activation and oxidative stress rather than itself alone.

Phospholipid-protein balance in affective disorders: Analysis of human blood serum using Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. A pilot study.
Joanna Depciuch,Magdalena Sowa-Kućma,Gabriel Nowak,Dominika Dudek,Marcin Siwek,Krzysztof Styczeń,Magdalena Parlinska-Wojtan +6 more
TL;DR: This study shows that Raman and infrared spectroscopies might be applied as a diagnostic tool to evaluate the balance between phospholipids and proteins in blood serum as a potential biomarker in depressive disorders.

Thiobarbituric Acid-Reactive Substances: Markers of an Acute Episode and a Late Stage of Bipolar Disorder.
Marcin Siwek,Magdalena Sowa-Kućma,Krzysztof Styczeń,Paulina Misztak,Bernadeta Szewczyk,Roman Topor-Madry,Gabriel Nowak,Dominika Dudek,Janusz K. Rybakowski +8 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that TBARS levels reflect the oxidative stress state which increases both in the acute phase of BD (mania/hypomania and depression) and with BD progression (stage).
