Synaptosomes were isolated from Yakutian ground squirrel brain cortex of summer and winter hibernating animals in active and torpor states. Synaptosomal membrane cholesterol and phospholipids were determined. The seasonal changes of synaptosomal lipid composition were found.

Lipid content of tissue and of fraction of microsomes in neocortex of Wistar rats was studies under artificial hypothermia, after X-ray irradiation in dose 8 Gy under conditions of normothermia and artificial hypothermia in 48 h. The condition of artificial hypothermia get by cooling of rats to 15-18 degrees C. It was shown, that in fraction of microsomes of hypothermia rats the content of phosphatidylinositol was decreased, and in 48 h after cooling of rats the amount of protein, total and individual phospholipids was increased.
