title: Peroxidative oxidation of lipids in slices of olfactory cortex of the rat brain during long-term potentiation.
abstract: The content of the products of the peroxidative oxidation of lipids (POL) in slices of olfactory cortex of the rat brain during long-term potentiation was investigated. The phasic character of the changes in the level of POL as a function of the duration of potentiation was demonstrated. The initial stages of potentiation (5 min) is characterized by an increase in POL; the stationary phase (15 min) is accompanied by inhibition of free-radical oxidation of lipids; the concluding phase of long-term potentiation (30 min) leads to the normalization of POL. The dynamics of the change in POL reflect the adaptive character of the development of potentiation in the slices.
