    Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a zoonotic disease being endemic in several parts of the world. In this studywe investigated the behavior of a panel of biomarkers of oxidative stress in 12 sick dogs naturally infectedby CanL before and at days 30 and 180 of a successful therapy with a standard treatment. The assays totaloxidant status (TOS), trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), ferric reducing ability of plasma(FRAP), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), serum thiol and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) wereincluded in the panel. In addition, correlations between biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammation(C-reactive protein (CRP) and ferritin) and urinary protein:creatinine ratio (UPC) were calculated. SerumCUPRAC, thiol and PON1 significantly increased after treatment and were negatively correlated with CRP,ferritin and UPC. This study demonstrates that biomarkers of oxidative stress, not previously studied inleishmaniosis such as CUPRAC and thiol, can change after a successful treatment for CanL showing apotential for use in monitoring the treatment of this disease
