The paper proposes a technique for protecting reconfigurable networks that implements topology rebuilding, which combines immunization and network gaming methods, as a solution for maintaining cyber resilience. Immunization presumes an adaptive set of protective reconfigurations destined to ensure the functioning of a network. It is a protective reconfiguration aimed to preserve/increase the functional quality of the system.

H3K27me3 is associated with transcriptionally repressed chromatin and is established when PRC2 is allosterically activated upon methyl-lysine binding by the regulatory subunit EED. Automethylation of the catalytic subunit enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) stimulates its activity by an unknown mechanism.

The complexity of pharmacotherapy in elderly patients is due to age-related physiological changes, high frequency of multimorbidity. The age of patients no longer precludes surgical intervention, and surgical procedures are often performed on elderly patients with complex comorbidities.

MPO is released into the vascular lumen by neutrophils during inflammation and may adhere and subsequently penetrate endothelial cells (ECs) coating vascular walls. We show that MPO enters the nucleus of ECs and binds chromatin independently of its enzymatic activity.

The diagnosis of acquired defect was established in 4 patients based on medical history, electrocardiography, echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging of the heart, endomyocardial or intraoperative myocardial biopsy, and in one case, autopsy. The study of the myocardium included H&E, Van Gieson staining, immunohistochemical (IHC) study with antibodies to CD3, CD20, CD45, CD68, to the nucleocapsid and Spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2.
