The Effects of HS and Recombinant Human Hsp70 on Inflammation Induced by SARS and Other Agents In Vitro and In Vivo.

The ongoing epidemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection led to the search for fundamentally new ways and means to combat inflammation and other pathologies caused by this virus. Using a cellular model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis (human promonocytes), we showed that both a hydrogen sulfide donor (sodium thiosulfate, STS) and a recombinant Heat shock protein 70 (rHsp70) effectively block all major inflammatory mediators when administrated before and after LPS challenge. The protective anti-inflammatory effect of rHsp70 and HS was also confirmed in vivo using various animal models of pneumonia.

Effect of combined compression-vibration therapy using non-invasive Beautylizer Therapy Cosmospheres V on the subcutaneous tissue morphology in women with gynoid lipodystrophy (pilot study).

Background: Gynoid lipodystrophy is one of the most common cosmetical problems in women.

Aims: The study aims to examine the pathomorphology and histology of subcutaneous tissue in women with gynoid lipodystrophy exposed to local compression/vibration therapy using a non-invasive Beautylizer Therapy Cosmospheres V medical device.

Methods: The study enrolled 25 virtually healthy women aged 25-45 years with gynoid lipodystrophy grades I and II.

Clinical implication of detecting sensitization to iodinated radiocontrast media in the basophil activation test by flow cytometry.

The use of iodinated radiocontrast media is necessary for visualization. A number of patients have adverse effects of various nature and severity when these drugs are administered. Routine allergy tests do not provide adequate diagnosis of reactions to drugs in this group.

Role of immune system in development and progress of combined arterial hypertension and gout.

Objective: Introduction: Multiple data available indicate high prevalence of comorbid abnormalities in gouty arthritis patients, namely, high incidence of arterial hypertension, coronary artery disease, stroke, atherosclerosis of carotid arteries, vascular dementia. For instance, hypertension is found in 36-41% gout patients, and combined with metabolic syndrome it may reach 80%. The aim: Studying features of clinical course, lipid profile and immune status in patients with combined hypertension and gout.

Polychromatic light (480-3400nm) similar to the terrestrial solar spectrum without its UV component in post-surgical immunorehabilitation of breast cancer patients.

To this day, two methods of phototherapy (PT) have been successfully used in post-surgical immunorehabilitation of patients with breast cancer (BC): intravenous laser irradiation of the patients' blood and reinfusion of lympholeukosuspension of BC patients after single irradiation with HeNe laser. The objective of this pilot experimental study was to verify the effectiveness of the percutaneous use of polychromatic visible light combined with polychromatic infrared (pVIS+pIR) radiation similar to the major components of natural solar spectrum in post-surgical management of BC patients. Patients with BC (adenocarcinoma) of I-II stages, n=19 who had undergone mastectomy, were divided into 2 groups.
