[Effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of animal origin on changes in regulation of lipid peroxidation in patients with ischemic heart disease].

The study's results showed reliable decrease in lipid peroxidation activity according to value of general sum of light, induced by hydrogen peroxide of initiated hemoluminescence and malonic dialdehyde concentration (P<0.05). The activity of antioxidant enzymes in the second group as compared with the control one has changed as follows: catalase concentration of blood serum of patients with ischemic heart disease increased by 59.49% (P<0.05), superoxide dismutase concentration--decreased by 28.64% (P<0.05). The above mentioned changes show, that the treatment with Tecom medication, which consist of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of animal origin does not stress peroxid antioxidant system, does not affect cell membrane stability, does not lead to progression of ischemic heart disease course.
