[The role of free radical processes and redox-signalization in adaptation of the organism to changes in oxygen level].

Data are presented on participation of free-radical oxygenation in development of the organism adaptation. The redox-signalization concept is discussed in the aspect of its responsibility for the initial stage of external signal transmission to the cell genetic apparatus. The pro- and antioxidant system ratio is noted as important for assessment of formation of the cell structure and the tissue resistance. A protective effect of periodic hyperoxia was shown as well as regularities of its development similar formation of adaptation to the periodic hyperoxia.
