[Study of toxicity of denture prosthetic appliance prothyl hot on the Jurkat cell model system].

The aim of our study was the investigation of toxicity of denture prosthetic appliance Prothyl Hot on the model system of Jurkat cell culture. As a result of our study it was revealed that denture prosthetic appliance Prothyl Hot: - hadn't manifested toxic effects the viability Jurkat cells (that reviled by stability of activity of mitochondrial dehydrogenises and mean of mitochondrial membrane potential; - didn't influence on the balance of pro-and antyinflammatory cytokines, expressed by Jurkat cells; - induces intensification of oxidative metabolism in Jurkat cells, which may be considered as compensatory reaction developing in the cells.

Treatment of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by vitamin in animal model.

Study purposed to determine the effectiveness of vitamin treatment in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS) by comparing several blood serum inflammatory markers, neurological deficiency and histopathological changes in untreated and treated EAE animals. Eighteen, 9-13 week old, male Wistar rats were immunised by 100 μl MOG injection. Clinical signs of EAE scored by a masked investigator.
