[Quantitative composition and functional role of thyroid phospholipids in nodular hypothyroid goiter].
Correlations between change in the composition of thyroid nodal tissue individual phospholipids and intensity of oxidizing processes under the influence of various phospholipid liposomes were studied. The thyroid phospholipid fraction level was investigated in patients with nodular goiter. A decrease in the level of sphingomyelin and phosphatidylinositide by 54%, cardiolipin by 63%, phosphatidic acid by 70%, phosphatidylserine by 46%, phosphatidylcholine by 7% and a two-fold increase in the level of phosphatidylethanolamine as compared to the control one were shown. A study of a degree of reduction of oxidation metabolism by adding phospholipid liposomes to thyroid sections showed that the tissue of a node possessed weaker oxidizing activity as compared to the control one. O2 absorption and 14CO2 excretion up to 30% were lowered in a hyperthyroid node. An activating liposome effect was noted in thyroid nodal tissue, mostly in the presence of phosphatidylserine, cardiolipin and phosphatidylinositide; the weakest effect was produced by phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylserine.
