We investigated the resistance of erythrocytes from rat brain venous blood to acid hemolysis in the dynamics of brain ischemic period (15, 30, 45 and 60 min), as well as in the early (5 min) and distant (24h) period of brain reperfusion. Brain ischemia-reperfusion was made in rats that received ecdysterone (standartized extract of Serratula coronata) within 18 days (per os, 1 mg/kg). Analysis of the kinetic curves of acid hemolysis showed a pronounced (60 times, from 1.

In experiments in vivo we studied the effect of chronic iron-contained drug (Urfuhem) supplemention on the level of hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood of aging rats. To establish the biochemical mechanisms of drug action it were determined the parameters of oxidative/nitrosative stress and the hydrogei sulfide level in plasma and erythrocytes, the level of non-heme iron in plasma and erythrocytes sensitivity to acid hemolysis. It was found that in aging rats the drug significantly increases the Hb content of red blood cells and reduces its resistance to acid hemolysis.

We studied the features of development of oxidative and nitrosative stress in otherwise healthy individuals under the influence of prolonged exercise of high volume and intensity. It is shown that young men who systematically performed muscular work have a high content of markers of different ways of generation of superoxide radical, a reactive oxygen species for products of lipid peroxidation and markers of nitrosative stress. The increase in the degree of adverse effects on the body intensive training and competitive loads is accompanied by pronounced adaptive changes in the hierarchy of oxidizing constitutive de novo synthesis of nitric oxide, as well as its nonoxide reutilization synthesis (in 3 times higher).

In the heart and heart mitochondria spontaneously hypertensive rats investigated the effect of physical exercise training (swimming in a moderate and excessive training mode) on the physiological indicators of cardiac hemodynamics and biochemical parameters that characterize the level of oxidative and nitrosative stress. The index of coupling Ca(2+)-dependent constitutive NO-synthases (cNOS = eNOS + nNOS) and biochemical index of dysfunction were calculated. It turned out that both modes of training is completely restored, and even exceed the reference values in untrained rats Wistar conjugate cNOS state and Ca(2+)-dependent synthesis of nitric oxide (NO).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of EMAP II on free radical state of the heart and blood vessels, to restore cNOS coupling and cardiac hemodynamics in spontaneously hypertensive rats. It was found that, due to the combined inhibition of oxidative and nitrosative stress, EMAP I quickly restores impaired in hypertension constitutive de novo synthesis of NO by restoring cNOS coupling. Restoration by EMAP II of constitutive de novo synthesis NO abolished cardiac and endothelial dysfunction in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
