title: [Effect of visual cortex stimulation on lipid peroxidation in the rabbit retina].
abstract: Chronic experiments on rabbits have shown that visual cortex stimulation resulted in intensified lipid peroxidation in the retina with the parallel decrease of electroretinogram amplitude parameters. The transsection of the optic nerve resulting in the elimination of retinal corticofugal inputs diminished the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products in the rabbit retina during light adaptation. Preliminary insertion of antioxidants to animals (vitamin E and ionol) prevents the inhibitory effect of the cortex on the function of the retina. The data obtained are discussed in view of possible involvement of lipid peroxidation in the retina into the realization of the regulating influence of the cortex on the function of the retina.
