Levels of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase were measured in the platelets of 30 patients, 10 of them affected by unstable angina, 10 of them reperfused after myocardial infarction and 10 matched healthy controls. The specific activities of both the enzymes were lowered in both group of patients. Glutathione reductase activity resulted markedly lowered.
