[THE INFLUENCE OF OPIOID PEPTIDES DSLET AND DAGO ON LIPID PEROXIDATION AND THE ACTIVITY OF ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMES IN THE LIVER TISSUE OF RATS IN THE STRESS OF DIFFERENT DURATION].

It was established that immobilization stress of different duration (3, 6 or 12 hours) causes the activation of lipid peroxidation in liver tissue of rats 39 hours after stressor action. Activation of lipid peroxidation within 7 days was observed in animals exposed to 6 or 12 hours stress. The activation of superoxide dismutase and catalase activity was revealed in rats after 3 hours immobility, but 12 hours stress was accompanied by superoxide dismutase inhibition. Agonists of different opioid receptors were shown to afford the antioxidant effects inhibiting the accumulation of malondialdehyde and acylhydroperoxides in the liver tissue and stimulating the antioxidant enzyme activity. Opioid peptides had a stimulatory effect on superoxide dismutase activity and less one on catalase activity in animal exposed to immobilization of different duration. A selective agonist of opioid delta-receptors DSLET manifested more expressed antioxidant effect, causing the inhibition of LPO metabolites production and the stimulation of superoxide dismutase and catalase activity.
