Class 1 Reversibly Glycosylated Polypeptides Suppress Tobacco Mosaic Virus Infection.

Reversibly glycosylated polypeptides (RGPs) have been identified in many plant species and play an important role in cell wall formation, intercellular transport regulation, and plant-virus interactions. Most plants have several genes with different expression patterns depending on the organ and developmental stage. Here, we report on four members of the RGP family in .

Lamin A as a Determinant of Mechanical Properties of the Cell Nucleus in Health and Disease.

One of the main factors associated with worse prognosis in oncology is metastasis, which is based on the ability of tumor cells to migrate from the primary source and to form secondary tumors. The search for new strategies to control migration of metastatic cells is one of the urgent issues in biomedicine. One of the strategies to stop spread of cancer cells could be regulation of the nuclear elasticity.

The role of vimentin in directional migration of rat fibroblasts.

Cell migration is one of the most important processes in which the cytoskeleton plays a main role. The cytoskeleton network is formed by tubulin microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments (IFs). While the structure and functions of the two aforementioned proteins have been extensively investigated during the last decades, vimentin IFs structure and their role in cell migration and adhesion remain unclear.

[The cerebrovascular pathology and the condition of brain blood circulation according to ultrasonic dopplerographic investigation depending on ethnos].

The condition of brain blood circulation in patients with discirculatory encephalopathies (DE) depending on ethnos was studied according to ultrasonic dopplergraphic investigation. The analysis of dopplerogramms has shown that sizes of indicators of brain blood circulation: linear speed of a blood-groove, pulse index (LS, PI) are in direct dependence on age of the patient, duration and the stage of diseases. The highest indicators LS and PI were in representatives of the 1-st basic group of supervision (aboriginals) and in patients of the control group.

[Discurculatory encephalopathy at the elderly Republics Sakhas (Yakutia)].

The clinic-etiological characteristic of discirculatory encephalopathies (DE) depending on residing region was studied. The analysis of risk factors has shown that the leading reasons of vascular defeat of a brain in all patients were the atherosclerosis and an arterial hypertensia, thus in patients living in good ecologically situation these risk factors were present less often. Clinical symptoms of DE, as well as numerous subjective and clinical displays, were most expressed in patients of the basic group, inhabitants of ecologically adversed Viljujsky region.
