[Influence of ionizing radiation on enzymatic activity and state of nucleus-nucleolar apparatus in rat hepatocytes].

The effects of a single exposure of rats to the whole-body roentgen irradiation at the doses of 3.5 Gy and 4.5 Gy on the activity of creatine kinase, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, as well as on the state of the nuclear-nucleolar apparatus in rat hepatocytes on the 6th and 13th days after radiation exposure have been studied.

[The reaction of the neuroblastoma cells in the culture on the influence of tretionine and neurotoxine].

Effect of the tretionine (retinoid) and aluminum chloride (neurotoxin) on the growth and differentiation of neuroblastoma cells in culture after their introduction into the medium separately and in combination was studied. The introduction of these substances creates a new information field in the medium, which becomes apparent by the reactions of neuroblastoma found on the populational and cellular levels of its organization. The presence of tretionine stimulates proliferation and induces differentiation of the cells into astrocytes.

[Pathology of lymphoid tissue cells infected by African swine fever virus in vitro].

The authors studied the pathology of bone marrow (BM) lymphoid cell from pigs infected by African swine fever virus (ASFV) in vitro. Monocytes were shown to be primarily afflicted in unstimulated BM culture. These cells disappeared completely 72 hours after infection.

[The influence of solcoseryl on population and cellular parameters of HeLa and RD cultures].

Changes of population and cellular parameters of HeLa and RD cultures after introducing of solcoseryl in culture medium were studied by methods of scanning cytophotometry and cytomorphometry. Monolayer density, proliferation activity, the number of dead cells in a monolayer, the number of nucleoli in nuclei and distribution of cells in the populations by this parameter, RNA and DNA masses in nuclei and nucleoli, total volumes and surface areas of the nuclei and nucleoli were determined. It has been shown that solcoseryl differently affects the cultures both on population and on cellular levels of their organization.

[Multiparametric study and cluster-analysis of the transformed cultures of human cells].

The cells of nepatocarcinoma (HEp-G2), adenocarcinoma of large intestine (Caco-2), embryonal kidney (HEK-293), neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y), rabdomyosarcoma (RD), and larynx cancer (Hep-2) were studied by the methods of scanning cytophotometry, cytochemistry and cytomorphometry during 96 h of cultivation. The density of monolayers, proliferation activity, the number of dead cells, DNA content in the nuclei and distribution of the cells in the population by this parameter, total DNA content in the nucleoli (circumnucleolar chromatin), the number of nucleoli in the nuclei, distribution of cells by their number, the volume and area of the nucleus surface, total volume and area of the nucleoli surface were determined. The data obtained were used in the treelike cluster analysis of the cultures by Pierson correlation.
