title: [The comparative efficacy of the membrane-protective action of piracetam and nikogamol in chronic stress].
abstract: It has been established that prophylactic doses of piracetam (500 mg/kg) and nicogamol (10 mg/kg) for 10 days prevent disorders in the morphofunctional status of membranes of brain mitochondria and erythrocytes due to stress. The membranoprotective effect which is more pronounced in nicogamol is shown by suppressing the activation of lipid peroxidation, nonspecific protection of the cell antioxidative system, by stabilizing the qualitative and quantitative relationships of structural components of a lipid matrix, and by subsequently normalizing the activity of membranous marker enzymes.
