[Effect of vitamin E on the energy allowance of functional and plastic processes in the myocardium during ischemia and reoxygenation]. / Vliianie vitamina E na énergeticheskoe obespechenie funktsional'nykh i plasticheskikh protsessov v miokarde pri ishemii i reoksigenatsii.

It was found that preliminary (before ischemia) administration of vitamin E in a dose of 200 mg/kg to albino rats causes the changes in energy support of the ischemic myocardium leading to prolonged maintenance of synthesis processes: energy production, cGMP concentration, unsaturation of cell membrane lipids increase. The combination of all these factors probably determines the anti-ischemic effect of vitamin E providing adequate restoration of the myocardial function in the postischemic period.
