[Role of phospholipids in functionally different cell membranes under conditions of antioxidant system disturbance].

Vitamin E deficiency in organism leads to microsome membrane phospholipid composition changes, oxidation, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity decrease, accompanied with the disorders of lung and liver tissues functional state which is connected with regulation of membrane penetration. The negative effect of E-hypovitaminosis more affects the liver than lung, which is caused by their different functional purposes, peculiarities of metabolic processes as well as by the content of biomembrane structural components. Vitamin E protects phospholipids from oxidation, regulates AOS condition, SOD-activity and promotes in such way the tissue functional disturbances correction of the animals tested.
