[Biophysical parameters of erythrocyte membranes and mechanisms of interaction with non-opioid analgesics under acute pain syndrome].

Methods of fluorescent probing, spectrophotometry and microcalorimetry were applied to investigate the alterations in biophysical parameters of erythrocytes membranes, and specifically microviscosity, surface charge, molecular organization of lipid bilayer and lipid-protein interactions under conditions of acute pain syndrome produced by experimental chemical lesion. The distinctive features of non-opiod analgesics interactions and binding to the erythrocytes membranes of rats subjected to acute nociceptive pain accompanied with oxidative stress development were investigated. The abilities of analgesics under research, and namely paracetamol, aspirin, phenazone, ketorolac, pyrodazole, ketoprofenum, natrium mefenaminate, indometacin, nimesulide to make up physico-chemical complexes with lipoperoxidation modified erythrocytes surface and protein-lipid bilayer showed marked changes.

[Experimental modeling and the discussion on the syncytial connections in the nervous system].

To solve the problem of the possibility of syncytial connection in the nervous system, this paper for the first time presents the evidence of experimental syncytial fusion of neurons. Neurons, isolated from the ganglia of the mollusc Lymnaea stagnalis and freed from the surrounding glia by pronase treatment, were drawn together by centrifugation and were kept in the culture medium for two days in the aggregated state. The neurons preserved the ability to generate normal processes.
