Abstract

The results of morphofunctional investigation of native women in Mezensky, Pinega, Kargopolsky, Krasnoborsky and Ustyansky districts of Archangelsk region are presented. Altogether 327 women from 21 to 55 years old were studied. Morphological investigation has observed 7 constitutional types with the predominance of euriplastic, stenoplastic, subatletic and pyknic types. Biochemical homeostasis was estimated by concentration of low and medium molecular weight substances in supernatants of plasma, erythrocytes and urine by registration of the absorption spectrum in ultraviolet zone of spectrophotometer. Level of oligopeptides in supernatants was determined by the Lowry technique. Given criteria of homeostasis allow to estimate the rate of endotoxemia as an organism response to the adverse factors of environment. Constitutional differences in the content of medium molecular weight agents and oligopeptides were revealed. The largest differences were observed in the content of medium molecular weight substances in the red blood cells, the highest value was determined for women of stenoplastic type, while the lowest – for women of euriplastic type. Integral index of endotoxemia (index of intoxication) declined with age for women of stenoplastic type, while women of euriplastic and pyknic types had an increase of intoxication index. It indicates accumulation of medium molecular weight substances in the organism and lowering of blood detoxication function.
