[Peroxidation of erythrocyte lipids and levels of vitamin E in red blood cells in children with chronic renal insufficiency].
The tocopherol and malonyldialdeyde levels in the erythrocytes of 15 children affected by chronic renal failure, free of therapy, have been studied. Decreased levels of the former and increased of the latter were found. These data indicate red blood cell lipids peroxidation, responsible, at least in part, of the reduced red blood cell survival and of chronic anemia.
