To study a dependence on lipid profile in plasma and erythrocytes and hereditary predisposition to essential hypertension (HPEH) 55 young patients with neurocirculatory distony (NCD) by hypertensive type (from 16 to 30 years) were observed. It was revealed the changes in concentration of cholesterol, fatty acids and phospholipids and increasing of relation of cholesterol/phospholipids in plasma and erythrocytes in the patients with NCD and (HPEH) in comparison with the same signs in the healthy males and in the patients with NCD without HPEH. It might show genotypic and phenotypic changes in lipid metabolism during development of essential hypertension.
