[Blood aggregation and the system of microcirculation in experimental atherosclerosis, its spontaneous regression and hemosorption]

Blood aggregate state and microcirculation were studied during development and spontaneous regression of experimental atherosclerosis and following hemosorption. It has been shown that experimental atherosclerosis is not only accompanied by changes in blood lipid composition, but also by disturbances in the structure and function of microcirculatory bed. Normalization of blood lipid composition and recovery of blood aggregate state and microcirculatory bed structure and function were not observed during spontaneous regression. Repeated hemosorption enhances atherosclerosis regression, normalizes lipid composition of blood and biological membranes and promotes the recovery of microcirculation.
