Study of the Efficiency of the Hydroporation for Delivery of Plasmid DNA to the Cells on the Model of Toxic Neuropathy.

We compared the efficiency of delivery of plasmid DNA (active ingredient concentration 1 mg/kg) that provides production of nerve growth factor (NGF) after intravenous administration to rats and after administration by hydroporation. The method of hydroporation ensured plasmid penetration into the liver tissue and lengthened the time of its detection in the organ. DNA concentration in 1 h after its introduction by hydroporation or intravenous route was 0.

Comparative Analysis of Polyethyleneimine Efficiency for Improvement of Plasmid DNA Bioavailability.

We studied the influence of the type and structure of polyethyleneimine on bioavailability and expression of plasmid DNA carrying IGF-1 gene. Polymers with different molecular weights (2.5, 10, 25, and 60 kDa) of linear and branching structure were studied.

Analysis of the Efficiency of Microencapsulated Sustained-Release Form of Naloxone on the Experimental Model of Fentanyl Poisoning.

We compared samples of microencapsulated naloxone prepared by using spray drying technique. 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, sodium alginate, polycaprolactone, and carboxymethyl cellulose were used as the carriers. It was found that the combination of naloxone with sodium alginate was characterized by the highest naloxone content in the matrix and the lowest release rate (100% release time was 60 min).

Effect of low-alcohol drinks on CNS structures in young animals.

Adaptation restructuring at the level of cells and cell populations in CNS in young animals after acute intoxication with a high dose of beer was evaluated by a complex of quantitative morphometric parameters. Variants of morphological manifestations of compensatory adaptive changes were studied and variability of their combinations in the neuroglial populations of the forebrain, cerebellum, and spinal cord in young animals was revealed reflecting plastic potentialities of the studied CNS structures exposed to a destructive factor.

[Thermal trauma in a combination with respiratory tract burn].

The detection rate of microbial contamination of burn wounds after flame burn was studied in dynamics to 3 weeks in 56 patients forming 2 similar groups: basic--with thermo-inhalation lesions (TIL) and control--without TIL. General area of skin burns in all the patients was less than 50% of the body surface, on average it was 40%, the area of deep burns was 23%. Cytological and bacteriologic methods were used for study microphlora in the sputum and in bronchoalveolar lavage.
