In the mice of the high leukemic strain, sick with natural lymphatic leukemia, the following parameters were determined on the 0 day, after 90, 180 and 270 days of observation: activity of the superoxide dismutase (SOD-EC1.15.1.1), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px-EC1.11.1.9) in the blood and catalase activity in erythrocytes. It was observed that the activity of all three enzymes during the development of the leukemic process decreased. This phenomenon indicates the disturbance of the protective role of these enzymes against free radicals in leucogenesis in mice.

D002374	Catalase	An oxidoreductase that catalyzes the conversion of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to water and oxygen. It is present in many animal cells. A deficiency of this enzyme results in ACATALASIA.	Catalase A,Catalase T,Manganese Catalase,Mn Catalase
D004912	Erythrocytes	Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
