Dysregulation of Phospholipid Metabolism in Synaptic Membranes and Their Role in Encephalopathy Forming After a Hemorrhagic Shock

摘要

Phospholipids (PLs) of neuronal membranes are active universal neuromodulators. They regulate many functions of the neurons, including receptors signaling, which during a hemorrhagic shock (HS) get damaged, leading to encephalopathy. An analysis of the data, presented in this review, suggests that the dysregulation of PL metabolism in synaptic membranes is a key mechanism of encephalopathy during HS. Stabilizing the PL composition of the neuronal membranes may become one of the most important treatment methods for shock-induced disorders of brain functions.
