| Abstract: | Lipid peroxidation and the antioxidant system of the heart, liver, and brain are studied in adult male Wistar rats with high
and low resistance to hypoxia tested by “raising” to an altitude of 11.5 km and in intact outbred rats. These parameters are
found to be the same in the brain of low- and high-resistance rats, while the brain content of lipid peroxidation products
is higher in both groups of Wistar rats compared with outbred rats. The heart and liver parameters are coupled to the resistance
to hypoxia. Antioxidant activity prevails over lipid peroxidation in the hearts and livers of high-resistance rats, confirming
that oxidation plays a major role in the damaging and lethal effects of acute hypoxia.
