INFLUENCE OF THE LIPID SPECTRUM ON THE ELECTRIC CHARGE VALUE OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC LESIONS

It was shown that the lipids of human arterial walls under the temperature of the internal habitat of the organism are found to be in liquid-crystalline state and demonstrate ferroelectric properties. The scope of this study is the calculation of electric charge value of atherosclerotic lesions’ lipid nucleus. The capacitance-voltage characteristics of arterial walls specimens were studied. The lipid spectrum was investigated by method of thin-layer chromatography. It was shown that atherosclerotic plateS are distinguished by lenghthwise content of cholesterol and its ethers. The abrupt change of C-V characteristics linear parts inclination was registered after their sharp growth in most cases. The maximum point was transformed to minimum point in the specimens with high level of cholesterol. The point of switch was absent in specimens with high level of cholesterol ethers in the range studied. It was revealed that electric charge value connect with lenghthwise content of cholesterol ethers, but cholesterol enlarge the range of electric charge value.
