[Erythrocyte membranes and antioxidant provision in experimental acute pancreatitis].

Experiments were conducted on rats with induced edematous and hemorrhagic forms of acute pancreatitis (AP) to study the parameters characterizing the state of the red cell membranes: hemolytic efficiency, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, extra-erythrocytic hemoglobin concentrations. The values characterizing the bio-antioxidative defense were also studied: superoxide dismutase activity and antioxidative property. The development of experimental AP is attended by injury to the red cell membranes among the causes of which is poor antioxidative provision.
