In order of estimating some regularities of ethanol direct (effectory) effect to transmembrane calcium metabolism in the myometrium the action of this substance on the energy-dependent Ca(2+)-transporting systems of the uterine myocytes subcellular structures has been studied. The systems of Mg2+, ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport regarding their sensitivity to ethanol inhibitory effect were displayed as satisfying the following sequences: endoplasmic reticulum calcium pump > plasma membrane solubilized Ca2+, Mg2+, ATP-ase > mitochondrial Ca(2+)-accumulating system = plasma membrane calcium pump. Alongside with the latter, the oxytocin-insensitive component of Mg2+, ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation in the endoplasmic reticulum was defined to be less resistant to inhibitory effect of ethanol if compared with the oxytocin-sensitive one. On the base of the data received some mechanisms of ethanol effectory action on the intracellular calcium homeostasis in the myometrium cells are under the discussion.
