The effects of hyperthyreosis on oxidative stress, state of glial intermediate filaments and memory were investigated. We observed a significant increase in lipid peroxidation products into both hippocampus and cortex and memory worsening. The changes of GFAP polypeptides was observed in hippocampus and cortex.

The results of immunobloting show similar composition of Fc-gamma-receptors extracted from apical and basolateral membranes.

The correlation between emotional activity and the level of GFAP has been found in the given structures of a brain. In immature animals, the activation of emotional component of behaviour was accompanied by decrease in polypeptide's soluble and insoluble fractions in brain stem by 16% and 18%, respectively (p<0.

Hypothyroidism was created by adding mercasolil (10 mg/kg) to the standard diet. At the end of experiment the level of thyrotropin and thyroxin in serum was defined with immunoenzyme method.

The content of fatty acids in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus was studied in an experiment on Wistar rats of the three age groups (5-weeks, puberal and old- 20-22 weeks) with an induced hypothyroidism (simulation was achieved by a 2 week prior supplement of L-thyroxin and final monitoring of thyroxin levels in serum). It was determined that the major variations of free fatty acids were noticed in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus among puberal rats, and somewhat lower shifts in premature (5 weeks) and old animals. The increase of free fatty acids in premature rats was registered in spectrum C17-C22.
