Features of differential cytological diagnosis of primary and metastatic liver carcinoma.

The aim of the work was to assess the possibility of the cytological method in the diagnosis of epithelial liver tumors and to determine the cytomorphological criteria in the differential diagnosis of liver carcinomas. The authors analyzed the data of 106 fine-needle aspiration biopsies and 167 smears-prints during cor-biopsy of masses of the liver in patients who were examined at the polyclinic of the oncological dispensary in Nizhny Novgorod in 2016. - 2017 As a result, full-fledged material for cytological examination in the form of smears-prints from cor-biopsy and fine-needle aspiration biopsies was obtained in 75.

Neuroprotective Metabolites from Vietnamese Marine Derived Fungi of and Genera.

Low molecular weight secondary metabolites of marine fungi , and sp. from Van Phong and Nha Trang Bays (Vietnam) were studied and a number of polyketides, bis-indole quinones and terpenoids were isolated. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by 1D and 2D NMR and HR-ESI-MS techniques.

[Dynamics of crystallogenic properties of the oral fluid and periodontal status when using toothpaste with fluoride].

Unlabelled: The of the study was to assess the efficacy of parodontax complex anti-inflammatory toothpaste with fluorine for treatment of moderate catarrhal gingivitis.

Material And Methods: Within 6 weeks a group of students was observed, which was divided into 2 subgroups depending on the activity of the carious process and with characteristic changes in crystalloscopy of the oral fluid. Clinical trials of parodontax anti-inflammatory toothpaste with fluorine were conducted.

Biologically Active Echinulin-Related Indolediketopiperazines from the Marine Sediment-Derived Fungus .

Seven known echinulin-related indolediketopiperazine alkaloids (-) were isolated from the Vietnamese sediment-derived fungus . Using chiral HPLC, the enantiomers of cryptoechinuline B () were isolated as individual compounds for the first time. (+)-Cryptoechinuline B () exhibited neuroprotective activity in 6-OHDA-, paraquat-, and rotenone-induced in vitro models of Parkinson's disease.

Biologically Active Metabolites from the Marine Sediment-Derived Fungus .

Four new compounds were isolated from the Vietnamese marine sediment-derived fungus , one aspyrone-related polyketide aspilactonol G (), one meroterpenoid 12-epi-aspertetranone D (), two drimane derivatives (,), together with five known metabolites (,,,,,). The structures of compounds - were established by NMR and MS techniques. The absolute stereoconfigurations of compounds and were determined by a modified Mosher's method.
