Popis: Objective: This study compares biomarkers of oxidative stress and neurological in patients of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Diabetes Mellitus (DM) to evaluate mechanisms of oxidative stress and inflammation in the pathogenesis of AD. Methods: Serum concentrations of 3-nitrotyrosine, Isoprostane, Protein Carbonyl, Malondialdehyde, Nitric Oxide, Asymmetrical Dimethyl-L-Arginine, Glutathione, and Homocysteine (as oxidative stress markers); adiponectin, fetuin A, insulin, soluble receptor of advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), IGF-I and Amylin (Insulin Resistance (IR) markers), serum amyloidβ (Aβ) and S100B protein (as neurological markers) were measured in controls, Type 2DM with or without AD, patients with AD with or without DM. Results: Even though levels of Aβ-40 was significantly higher in DM -OAD+ AD patients than DM-OAD patients (p
