ABSTRACT
Gaseous transmitters contribution in blood oxygen transport function modification under the influence of the magnetic field was studied. It is found, that irradiation of the tail artery of rats for 10 days during 10 minutes increases p50 value, indicating a decrease in the hemoglobin affinity for oxygen and is accompanied by increased concentrations of nitrate/nitrite, and hydrogen sulfide. Administration of L-arginine and nitroglycerin during magnetic field action is accompanied by a decrease of hemoglobin affinity for oxygen, which is absent when NO-synthase enzyme inhibitor (L-NAME) is added. These data suggest an important role in the formation of blood oxygen transport function such gaseous transmitters as nitrogen monoxide and hydrogen sulfide.
