Acute Toxicity, Immunotoxicity and Allergenicity of Protease Complex Obtained from Micromycete .

The different effects on animals of the thrombolytic protease complex of the new producer 203 were studied. The tests of acute toxicity, immunotoxicity and allergenicity should conclude that the studied proteolytic complex is safe for medical usage. For the intravenous and the intraperitoneal routes of administration, the maximum tolerated dose and the median lethal dose were not determined.

Optimization of triacetate cellulose hollow fiber vitrification (HFV) method for cryopreservation of in vitro matured bovine oocytes.

The aim of the current work was to evaluate applicability of triacetate cellulose hollow fiber vitrification (HFV) method for cryopreservation of groups of in vitro matured bovine oocytes (12-17 oocytes per device). We also attempted to optimize HFV protocol by altering concentration of non-permeating cryoprotectant (sucrose) in vitrification solution and concentration of extracellular Ca by using a calcium-free base medium for preparation of vitrification/rewarming solutions with ethylene glycol (EG) as a single permeating cryoprotectant. Neither of modifications of HFV protocol significantly affected survival or fertilization rates of the vitrified bovine oocytes.

[All-Russian Consensus on Diagnosis and Treatment of Celiac Disease in Children and Adults].

The paper presents the All-Russian consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease in children and adults, which has been elaborated by leading experts, such as gastroenterologists and pediatricians of Russia on the basis of the existing Russian and international guidelines. The consensus approved at the 42nd Annual Scientific Session of the Central Research Institute of Gastroenterology on Principles of Evidence-Based Medicine into Clinical Practice (March 2-3, 2016). The consensus is intended for practitioners engaged in the management and treatment of patients with celiac disease.

[Morphological and Physiological Properties of the Micromycete Arthrobotrys longa, a Producer of Longolytin, a Proteolytic Complex with a Thrombolytic Effect].

Production of proteinases with plasmin-like and plasminogen-activating activities by a micromycete Arthrobotrys longa 1 was studied. Polycyclic growth of the producer in submerged cultures was observed, with an endogenous rhythm of the periods of intense microconidia formation alternating with the phases of drastic increase in the content of producing mycelium. The highest plasminogen-like and plasminogen-activating activities (up to 1000 and 500 cond.
