Immune and microbiological disorders in women with infectious and inflammatory pathology of the cervix.

Penetration into the female genital tract of infectious agents is associated with the cause of the onset of cervicitis. In most cases, these are sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). A high level of viral and bacterial load in the study of clinical material from women with infectious and inflammatory pathology (IVP) of the cervix affects the activity of innate immunity reactions.

Development and study of nutrient media for determining the biological properties of Listeria.

The commercial nutrient media for investigation of the biologic properties of L. monocytogenes is developed. The efficiency of the use of developed media for determination of motility and lecithinase activity of Listeria in the establishment of the isolated culture to the pathogenic species is shown.

Probiotics in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection: reality and perspective.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is one of the most common in the world today, associated with the development of acute or chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastroduodenal tract. In order to eradicate the pathogen, various antibacterial therapy regimens have been proposed, based on the use of several chemotherapeutic drugs and a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).

[Malignant medulloepithelioma mimicking retinoblastoma - clinical and morphological case analysis and cell culture experience].

The paper presents clinical and morphological case analysis of primary intraocular malignant medulloepitelioma (medulloblastoma) of rare localization (central part of the retina with optic nerve involvement) that simulated retinoblastoma in a 2-year-old child. Histological features of the tumor are given in details (tubular and mesh structures of the tumor, rosettes, ribbons, cells with hyperchromic nuclei, and cellular polymorphism). An experience of creating a primary intraocular malignant medulloepitelioma cell culture, as yet exclusive in the Russian Federation, is described.
