Aim: Evaluate role of gene polymorphisms of surfactant proteins in susceptibility and severity of influenza infection course in representatives of Moscow population. MATERIALS AND METHODS; 320 influenza patients, infected with various influenza virus strains, and 115 healthy individuals (control group),, were included into the study. Human DNA samples genotyping for determination of SFTPA2 gene rs1965708 and rs1059046, SFTPB gene rs1130866 polymorphisms was carried out using a modified method of "adjacent samples".

Various macroorganism factors influence spontaneous and therapy induced elimination of hepatitis C virus. Standard therapy is application of a combination of pegylated interfernos and ribavirin. However such tactics results in attainment of a resistant virological response in approximately half the cases during infection by genotype 1 virus.

Aim: Evaluation of CD3+ and CD3-/CD56+ proliferative response on hepatitis C virus antigens in healthy medical workers.
Materials And Methods: The study included 15 medical workers with length of service of 2 and more years without common risk factors (blood and blood products transfusion, abdominal operations, invasive procedures, use of intravenous drugs). Control group consisted of 9 healthy individuals without risk factors.
Aim: To evaluate the impact of using the innovative antiviral drugs in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) on the disease burden in the long term.
Materials And Methods: A program was developed to increase the availability of innovative antiviral therapy (AVT) in patients with CHC covering the period from 2013 to 2020. To evaluate the impact of the program on the burden of hepatitis C (HC) in the Russian Federation, a Markov model of the disease progression was developed till 2030.
