Looking for an appropriate model of accelerated aging in vivo we investigated the content of endogenous products of lipid peroxidation (LP) in the rat brain after single or 4 day-lasting intramuscular injection of complex-bind iron (ferum Hausman, 50 mg/kg body weight) like promoter of LP. We found that the single administration of this iron complex fails to induce endogenous LP; after 4 day-application of iron we observed significant increase in content of primary (lipid peroxides) and final (fluorescent) products of LP. Iron-promoted activation of endogenous LP could be abolished by animal pretreatment with the natural antioxidant alpha-tocopherol. The calcium antagonist nifedipine didn't affect the content of endogenous LP products neither alone nor in combination with alpha-tocopherol.
