[Changes of biochemical parameters in blood serum rats under chronic light desynchronosis].

Ten biochemical parameters total protein, albumin, glucose, cholesterol, urea, creatinine, total bilirubin, ALT, AST, APh were determined during long-term light mode changes in serum of rats. Changing the light mode, a number of parameters revealed unreliable 24-hour rhythms. An ultradian 12-hour reliable rhythm has been for serum total protein of rats exposed to constant darkness during 1 month.

Changes in the Biorhythms of Biochemical Parameters in Animals with Modeled Acute Desynchronosis.

This article describes models for the study of acute desynchronosis: jetlag syndrome and acute desynchronosis under physical stress for possible pharmacological correction of these disorders. The cosinor analysis allowed assessing significance of changes in biological rhythms in 2 biological models: the jetlag-type diurnal rhythm shift model and the model with changed light mode. The revealed changes in the rhythms of biochemical parameters in the blood serum of animals with acute desynchronosis indicate significant changes in the intensity of carbohydrate-lipid metabolism, which affected the processes of cell bioenergetics.

Minimal Age-Related Alterations in Behavioral and Hematological Parameters in Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 (TAAR1) Knockout Mice.

Since the discovery in 2001, the G protein-coupled trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) has become an important focus of research targeted on evaluation of its role in the central nervous system (CNS). Meanwhile, impact of TAAR1 in the peripheral organs is less investigated. Expression of TAAR1 was demonstrated in different peripheral tissues: pancreatic β-cells, stomach, intestines, white blood cells (WBC), and thyroid.

Accumulation Patterns of Sub-chronic Aluminum Toxicity Model After Gastrointestinal Administration in Rats.

Although aluminum chronic neurotoxicity is well documented, there are no well-established experimental protocols of Al exposure. In the current study, toxic effects of sub-chronic Al exposure have been evaluated in outbreed male rats (gastrointestinal administration). Forty animals were used: 10 were administered with AlCl water solution (2 mg/kg Al per day) for 1 month, 10 received the same concentration of AlCl for 3 month, and 20 (10 per observation period) saline as control.

Effects of Experimental Coma on the Expression of Bcl-2 Protein and Caspases 3 and 9 in Rat Brain.

We performed immunohistochemical analysis of the expression of caspases 3, 9 and bcl-2 protein in rat brain at various terms after administration of LD50 of sodium thiopental. Expression of the specified apoptosis markers was found in the sensorimotor cortex and hippocampus (dentate gyrus and CA2 region).

[Cytoflavin in polychemotherapy of breast cancer].

The efficacy of cytoflavin as a supporting drug in the CAF chemotherapy of breast cancer was studied. It was estimated by the tolerability, the peripheric blood index dynamics, the patients general condition (Karnovsky Index) and the frequency of the side effects. For the immediate estimation of the polychemotherapy and cytoflavin effects on the cytoprotection natural system state, the dynamics of the glutathione metabolism and the lipid peroxidation in the erythrocytes was investigated.

[Cardioprotective effect of cytoflavine on a model of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy].

Experimental data on the influence of repeated administration of doxorubicin in a dose of 2.24 mg/kg on the glutathione exchange in heart tissues and erythrocytes of white outbred rats are presented. It was shown that disorders in the natural cytoprotection system caused by the introduction of this cardiotropic agent, can be corrected using a combined preparation of cytoflavin.

[Experimental study on cytoflavin pharmacological correction of cyclophosphamide-induced toxic affections of the liver and kidneys].

The experimental data concerning the influence of repeated administration of cyclophosphamide in a total dose of 200 mg/kg on the glutathione metabolism and lipid peroxidation in the liver and kidneys of albino noninbred rats are presented. The possibility of the natural cytoprotection system correction by the use of cycloflavin was shown. The cytoprotection action mechanisms of the pharmacological agent are discussed.

[A method for external painful stimulation in the treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans of the vessels of the lower extremities].

Under analysis are results of treatment of 21 patients. Positive effects were obtained in 19 of them. This effect was noted in 6 patients during 2 years.
