[Actual privy councilor V.V. Pelikan (1790-1873) and his 'Dissertatio medico chirurgica inauguralis de aneurysmate' (ST. Petersburg, 1816). Part 3].

The article deals with the analysis of the translated for the first time from Latin to Russia and introduced into scientific use 'Dissertatio medico chirurgica inauguralis de Aneurysmate' (St. Petersburg, 1816) written by Associate Professor of the Imperial Medical and Surgical Academy, then holder of the highest orders of the Russian Empire, Actual Privy Councillor V.V.

[Polymorphism of CYP1A1 and CYP2D6 genes in tundra nentses and European populations of western Siberia].

Data on the first examination of the CYP1A1 and CYP2D6 genes' polymorphism in the populations of Tundra Nentsis (Yamalo-Nenetskii Autonomous District) and migrant population of Western Siberia (Novosibirsk oblast and Altaiskii krai) are presented. The frequency of the 2D6*4 mutant allele in Tundra Nentsis, characterized by a two-component Caucasoid and Mongoloid origin, was shown to be intermediate in Caucasoid and Mongoloid populations. The frequencies of the 2D6*4 and 1A1Val* mutant alleles across migrant inhabitants of Western Siberia (Caucasoid populations) were similar to that reported for the Caucasoid populations overall.

[Characteristics of the gene pool of Russian Old Believers in Siberia based on polymorphism of blood groups, isoenzymes, and blood proteins].

The frequency distributions of A1A2B0, Rhesus, MNSs, P, Duffy, Kell, Hp, Tf, AcP, PGM1 alleles, and haplotypes were studied in Siberian populations of Old Believers (Burnyi village, Krasnoyarskii krai, and Isetskii raion, Tyumenskaya oblast) and in ethnic Russians from Tyumenskaya oblast. Features characteristic of the genetic structure of these groups were revealed. The Siberian groups of Russians were shown to be genetically removed from European Russian populations (Tverskaya and Vologodskaya oblasts).

[Genetic analysis of the South Altaian population of the Mendur-Sokkon village, Altai Republic].

This study was a continuation of complex research on the gene pool of indigenous Siberian populations conducted at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics, Siberian Division, Russian Academy of Sciences. In the population of South Altaians from the Mendur-Sokkon village, Ust'-Kanskii raion, Altai Republic, polymorphism for the following genetic markers was studied: blood groups ABO, MNSs, Rhesus, Kell, Duffy, and P; erythrocyte acid phosphatase (AcP); phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1); haptoglobin (Hp); and transferrin (Tf). The genetic position of South Altaians relative to the populations of the European part of Russia, Siberia, and the Urals was estimated.
