Age-related features of the pattern of oral fluid patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

In recent years, non-invasive screening methods for diagnosing various human conditions, including those corresponding to biological age, have attracted great interest, one of the sources for non-invasive research of which is oral fluid.

Structure, properties, and decomposition in biological systems of a new nitrosyl iron complex with 2-methoxythiophenolyls, promising for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

A new promising binuclear tetranitrosyl iron complex with 2-methoxythiophenolyl of the composition [Fe(CHOS)(NO)] (complex 1), which acts on the therapeutic targets of cardiovascular diseases, guanylate and adenylate cyclase, has been synthesized. X-ray diffraction data show the presence of two isoforms of complex 1; according to quantum chemical calculations, the structure of only the trans isomer is stable in solutions. The processes of transformation of complex 1 in DMSO, in aqueous solutions, as well as in the presence of bovine serum albumin, reduced glutathione, and mucin were studied.

Approbation of a Homologous Model of the Antitumor Vaccine Based on Mature Mouse Dendritic Cells to Study the Biodistribution of the Cell Product.

Homologous animal cell product was obtained in protocol developed for female BALB/c mice. Dendritic cell (DC) migration from the injection site into the draining lymph nodes was evaluated. The number of DC labeled with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE) in draining lymph nodes increased from 5.

New Amphiphilic Terpolymers of N-Vinylpyrrolidone with Acrylic Acid and Triethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate as Promising Drug Delivery: Design, Synthesis and Biological Properties In Vitro.

The terpolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone (VP) with acrylic acid and triethylene glycol methacrylate were synthesized with more than 90% yield by radical copolymerization in ethanol from monomeric mixtures of different molar composition (98:2:2, 95:5: 2 and 98:2:5) and their monomer composition, absolute molecular masses and hydrodynamic radii in aqueous media were determined. Using the MTT test, these terpolymers were established to be low toxic for non-tumor Vero cells and HeLa tumor cells. Polymer compositions of hydrophobic dye methyl pheophorbide a (MPP) based on studied terpolymers and linear polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were obtained and characterized in water solution.

Development of a Protocol for Obtaining a Homologous Cell Product of Animal Origin Intended for Preclinical Studies of Antitumor Vaccine CaTeVac.

When developing a program of preclinical studies of human cell-based drugs intended for adoptive immunotherapy of cancer patients, the biological effect should be substantiated by data describing their immunological action. Administration and study of human autologous dendritic cell vaccine to immunocompetent animals are not adequate in terms of immunological compatibility. It is possible to use immunocompromised, knockout, or transgenic animals or to obtain a homologous cellular product, namely, a preparation based on animal cells using a technology similar to obtaining the original preparation for clinical practice in humans.
