[The ceruloplasmin-transferrin antioxidant system during hyperbaric oxygenation in rats].

Antioxidant system ceruloplasmin-transferrin (Cp-Tr) and malonic dialdehyde (MDA) concentration changes were studied in the rat serum after the exposure to hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) at 4 atm for 25 min. 5 sessions of HBO led to an increase in serum MDA concentration. 5 HBO sessions were followed by the activation of Cp-Tr system. Afterwards MDA concentration began to decrease and by the 9th session even reached the initial levels. It is suggested that antioxidant system Cp-Tr takes part in the protection of the organism from toxic oxygen action.
