title: [Accumulation of lipid peroxidation products in cataractous lenses].
abstract: A study was made of the content of lipid peroxidation products (LPP) in the lenses extracted during operations for cataract as well as in transparent human lenses. In a mature cataract, the elevated content of primary, secondary and end products of lipid peroxidation (diene and triene conjugates, Schiff bases) was revealed. The content of LPP was identical in different clinical patterns of a mature cataract (senile, traumatic, complicated), which points to the universal role of lipid peroxidation in lenticular opacity.
