[Medical and prophylactic properties lipids and antioxidants derived from sea hydrobionts]
Abstract:
Recent researches in the field of studying medical-preventive activity of lipids and natural antioxidants derived from sea hydrobionts at carbohydrate and lipid metabolic imbalances were analyzed. On experimental models of hyperlipidemia and a diabetes the optimum dozes and polyunsaturated fat acids omega-3/omega-6 in structure of phospho- and glycolipids derived from sea macrophytes Sargassum pallidum, Ulva fenestrata, Zostera marina, and also antioxidants-- polyhydroxynaphthoquinone a echinochrome. A derived from flat sea urchin Scaphechinus mirabilis and mixes of polyphenols from sea grass Zostera marina were determined. Prospective mechanisms of polar lipids, containing various polyunsaturated fat acids and specified above antioxidants are presented on the basis of the received results and the analysis of published data.
