چکیده

This study investigates the effects of the defoliants butylcaptax and Dropp on the phospholipid composition and lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the liver mitochondria and microsomes of pregnant rats and their embryos. Experiments were conducted on Wistar rats exposed to 1/10 of the LD50 dose on gestation days 3, 13, and 19. The results demonstrated a decrease in phosphatidylethanolamine and total phospholipid content, along with an increase in phosphatidic acid, lysophospholipids, and the cholesterol/phospholipid ratio. A significant enhancement of both enzymatic and non-enzymatic LPO was observed in the mitochondria and microsomes, with more pronounced effects following butylcaptax exposure. Although embryonic tissues exhibited less marked alterations, similar trends were observed. The findings indicate the activation of lipid peroxidation processes and the disruption of membrane structures, which may contribute to embryotoxic effects.
