Abstract

The initial stages of nonischemic chronic heart failure in rats (model of oleothorax) were accompanied by the development of dyslipidemia. This state was characterized by an increase in total cholesterol concentration (due to the fraction of low-density lipoproteins) and atherogenicity index. The concentrations of plasma total cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins were shown to decrease in animals with severe course of nonischemic chronic heart failure. These changes were accompanied by a decrease in the atherogenicity index. Intragastric administration of cholesterol had little effect on the lipid composition of blood plasma in rats, irrespective of the severity of heart failure.
