I can verify this behavior, tested using LibreOffice Version: 4.1.2.3 
Build ID: 40b2d7fde7e8d2d7bc5a449dc65df4d08a7dd38

Also reproducible using LibreOffice Version 4.0.0.3 (Build ID: 53fd80e80f44edd735c18dbc5b6cde811e0a15c)
TinderBox: MacOSX TDF Release, Branch:libreoffice-4-0, Time: 2013-01-31_11:01:36

After editing the formula, all Russian symbols are gone or replaced by a " or other symbols.

Marking as critical low.
Critical: loss of data
Low: didn't saw this problem already, only reproducible in this case

Kind regards,
Joren

It's not a regression. I checked it in LibreOffice 3.5, and it is also wrong there. It is even wrong in MS Word 2010. The problem is, I think, that equations use Times New Roman Cyr font, which is not present on modern operating systems.

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3)

2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword
