Abstract

The lipid peroxidation (LPO) of the lung tissue and the bronchoalveolar lavage in rats under the influence of immobilization has been investigated. The effects accompanying the development of oxidative stress in animals--an increase in the content of conjugated dienes and fluorescent LPO products in biological objects and a strong decrease in the content of vitamin E in the lung tissue were registered.
