[Activation of lipid peroxidation in the brain in cerebral hemorrhage]

The effect of intracerebral hemorrhage (injection of 0.15 ml of autogenic blood during 2 min in capsula interna) on lipid peroxidation in brain tissue was studied in rat experiments. Intracerebral hemorrhage resulted in a progressive increase of conjugated diene and malonic dialdehyde concentrations, and a decrease in the levels of cerebral lipids antiradical activity. This effect appeared by the 3-rd hour and was significantly manifest 24 hours after the blood injection into the brain.
