[Correction of metabolic disorders by magnetic-laser irradiation (experimental study)]

Five series of experiments were conducted on a model of hepatic insufficiency caused by obstructive jaundice to study the effect of semiconductor infrared laser in a range of 800-900 nm with a static magnetic field on some metabolic changes in the organism. Wistar rats weighing 200-250 g were used. The region of the liver was irradiated through an intact epilated skin. The results provide evidence that a definite role in the pathogenesis of hepatic insufficiency is played by intensification of LPO processes and diminution of antioxidant defence which leads, in turn, to reduction of the insulin-receptor interrelations and sharp decrease of hepatic cell metabolism.
