title: [Comparative characteristics of changes in the fatty acid spectrum of high density lipoproteins in male patients of various age with appendicitis].
abstract: The fatty acid spectrum, the content of cholesterol of total high-density lipoproteins (HDLP) and high-density lipoproteins3 as well as the activity of lecithin-cholesteryl-acyl-transferase (LCAT) were investigated in mature-age males (periods I and II) with appendicitis. The intensity of endogenous production of polyunsaturated fatty acids was concluded to be reducing in mature-age (periods I and II) males. As for the mature-age males of period I, the consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids was found to be increasing and the production of endogenous cholesterol was found to be decreasing in them. The transformation of HDLP3 into HDLP2 was found to be declerating in the mature-males of period II, while the cholesterol-acceptor ability of HDLP3 was going up in the males of latter category.
