title: [Effect of alpha-tocopherol and phospholipids with omega-3 fatty acids on membrane properties].
abstract: As a result of the investigations conducted it was displayed, that alpha-tocopherol and phospholipids including into their composition omega-3-acids, differed in their influencing the composition of heart microsomes membranes lipids. The insufficient quantity of vitamin E in the animals ration was defined as leading to the cardiac microsomes lisophospholipids (lisophosphatidylcholin, lisophospatidylethanolamin), diphosphatidylglycerol increase as well as to the tendency to sphingomyeline and phosphatidylethanolamin decrease. While administrating both alpha-tocopherol and the complex of phospholipids with omega-3-fatty acids, the correction of the phospholipids composition microsomes membranes is observed as tending towards their stabilization, however the marine phospholipids complex is more active than alpha-tocopherol. Administration of phospholipids with omega-3-fatty acids during the period of 30 days provided for the increase of relationship: polyunsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids in the cardiac microsomal membranes, evidencing about increasing the unsaturated cellular membranes. While administrating the phospholipids, into the cardiac microsomes the eicozepentaenic acid was identified, failing to be in the norm, docozahexaenic acid content increased. The results obtained testify, that at the pathology there are changes in the quantitative relationship of membrane phospholipids and fatty acids, being a result of changing the biomembranes permeability as well as their functions disturbances. The adverse effect of E-deficiency to the membrane structure was revealed as capable to be regulated by the marine phospholipid complex, including omega-3-fatty acids.
