Abstract

Questions of the mechanism of autolysis of the corneal tissue were examined on 72 dog eye balls, which had been kept in a damp chamber for 3 hours, 2 days and 15 days. The method of chemoluminescence found especial importance here, because it made possible to analyse the state of the functioning cell membrane and to gain information of bio-energetic processes which take place in the lipoprotein complexes of the cells and their organelles in the corneal tissue. From the results obtained it can be assumed, that in the mechanisme of autolysis disturbances of the self-regulating oxidation of the lipoidstructure-elements are of great importance in the process of survival and the conservation of corneal tissue.

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
