[Changes in the physico-chemical characteristics of mouse liver lipids after administration of a mixture of unsaturated fatty acids].

The effects of a mixture of unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) on changes in the lipid oxidation substrate, a system of natural antioxidants and the functioning of a system controlling lipid peroxidation were studied. It was shown that arachidonate induces the incorporation of fatty acids into individual lipid fractions and the dilution of lipids by UFA esters, as a result of which the relative amount of natural antioxidants diminishes. Under these conditions, the oxidative capacity of lipids decreases, which manifests itself in a reduction of the rate of natural antioxidants utilization and an increase in their number. It was shown that purposeful modification of the lipid substrate does not interfere with the interaction between individual parameters of the system controlling lipid peroxidation.
