[Relationship between morphometric indices of the capillary network and lipid peroxidation in visual structures of human brain during aging].
At late stages of ontogenesis the density of functionally active capillaries grows smaller, their contact surface area and capillary bed characteristics increase. These changes are in certain reciprocal relations with the fall of activity of neuronal succinate dehydrogenase, increase of the number of primary heptantophilic products of lipid and decrease of secondary isopropanol-soluble lipids. The changes named are most pronounced in the visual cortex and lateral geniculate bodies.
