title: Role of lipid peroxidation in iron-induced cellular calcium overload.
abstract: Calcium overload is the common pathway leading to cell injury. The role of iron-induced lipid peroxidation in the modification of Ehrlich carcinoma cells calcium homeostasis has been studied. There is a lack of correlation between that modification and the value of lipid peroxidation. The stability characteristics of low-mol-weight iron complexes affect lipid peroxidation and, to a lesser extent, cellular calcium uptake. Lipid peroxidation appears not as a triggering factor of cellular calcium homeostasis modification, but as a concomitant phenomenon.
