Title: [Changes in the structural characteristics and ATPase activity of the erythrocyte membranes in angiographically verified coronary artery lesion]. Author: Artemova LG, Torkhovskaia TI, Khodzhakuliev BG, Rudenko TS, Kasatkina LV. Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1984 Aug; 98(8):230-3. PubMed ID: 6087959. Abstract: Structural characteristics and Na, K-ATPase activity of erythrocyte membranes were studied by the spin probe method in patients with an angiographically verified damage to the coronary arteries. The rise of the cholesterol/phospholipid ratio in patients with coronary heart disease was associated with the increased orderliness of the fatty acid chains of erythrocyte membrane lipids, leading to inhibition of Na, K-ATPase activity. The data point to the same line of changes in erythrocyte membranes and smooth muscle cells during the development of coronary heart disease.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
