Some changes take place in the spectrum of fatty acid, cholesterol and individual phospholipids' composition in the rat liver, under E-hypovitaminosis, that can play a considerable role in the cell damage. The level of cysteinyl leucotriene decreases in the blood and liver under E-hypovitaminosis and it rises to the control level under vitamin E correction. This demonstrates the influence of tocopherol on 5-LO pathway arachidonic acid.

Vitamin D deficiency (i.e., hypovitaminosis D) is associated with increased insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion, and poorly controlled glucose homeostasis, and thus is correlated with the risk of metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

It is shown, that dietary deprivation of vitamins A and E leads to a sharp decrease in intensity of CoQ biosynthesis in rats' liver tissue and to its intracellular redistribution. Under these circumstances the observed decrease in the inclusion of labelled tyrosine in rats' liver CoQ under A,E-hypovitaminosis may be really caused by dietary deprivation of vitamin E.

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.

It has been found that the level of antioxidant activity in the homogeneous system of methyl oleate oxidation permits arranging the preparations studied in a series: ionol > distinol > dimethylsulphoxide. Distinol inhibits peroxidation of lipids in the liver homogenates of chicken most efficiently.
