title: [Lipid peroxidation changes in the brain in fetal alcohol syndrome].
abstract: The study was performed upon three groups of 12-week-old male rats. The first group of rats received ethanol/9 g/kg/day as 6% aqueous solution/during pregnancy and lactation, the second group received ethanol only during lactation and the third group, controls, received equicaloric sucrose solution. The concentrations of LPO products were determined in the homogenates of tissue from frontal cortex, striatum, hypothalamus, hippocamp and cerebellum. The concentration of fluorescent products in the brain structures of rats treated perinatally with ethanol was several-fold increased as compared with controls. The levels of diene conjugates were increased in most brain structures of rats with FAS. It should be pointed out that there was the same degree of increase of the levels of both fluorescent products and diene conjugates in two groups of rats with FAS. Having in mind that in the rat the increased growth of the brain occurs during the first 10 postnatal days, it might be assumed that this period is favorable for LPO.
