  The behavior of the nucleon structure functions in lepton nuclei deep
inelastic scattering, both polarized and unpolarized, due to nuclear structure
effects is reanalyzed. The study is performed in two schemes: an x-rescaling
approach, and one in which there is an increase of sea quark components in the
in medium nucleon, related to the low energy N-N interaction. In view of a
recent interesting experimental proposal to study the behavior of the proton
spin structure functions in nuclei we proceed to compare these approaches in an
effort to enlighten the possible phenomenological interest of such difficult
experiment.
