Морфофункціональні особливості та катехоламіндепонуюча функція еритроцитів у хворих на цирози печінки з анемією

Abstract

62 patients with cirrhosis of the liver were studied. In 42 patients the cirrhosis was complicated by anemia. 20 patients suffered from cirrhosis without anemia. In these cases the level of free radical lipid peroxidation was studied, which was increased in all groups of patients, more significant in the group with cirrhosis with anemia. The activity of free radical lipid peroxidation led to the deformability of the erythrocytes membranes and to the aggravation of rheological characteristics of erythrocytes. Changes of quality of erythrocyte membranes can lead to the changes in structure of the receptors and can influence on the level of the anemia in patients with cirrhosis.
