[The dependence of lipid peroxidation state and the antioxidant system of the myocardium from the thyroid status during short action of stressors].

In experiments at 78 adult white outbred male rats were demonstrated that experimental hypothyroidism (injection of 25 mg/kg merkazolil within 20 days) stimulates, while small doses of L-thyroxine (1.5-3.0 μg/kg within 28 days) limit the intensification of lipid peroxidation in the myocardium under short exposure to stressors of a different nature: physical (t 4-5 °C within 30 minutes), chemical (injection of 25% ethanol at a dose of 3.5 g/kg body weight), and emotional (free swimming of rats in the cage within 30 minutes) by influence on the activity of enzymatic (superoxide dismutase and catalase) and non-enzymatic (reduced glutathione) components of the antioxidant system.
