Özet

Objective: It has been suggested that regular, long-term exercise increases erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and antioxidant enzymatic activities. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether G6PD activity and antioxidant activities consisting of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and glutathione s transferase (GST) levels changed with a 12 week aerobic exercise program in basketball players.
