On making expedition and studying the functioning of opisthorchiasis foci in the Orenburg Region, the authors have districted the region and identified 3 types of districts according to the pattern of Opisthorchis transmission: 1) areas lacking the conditions for forming an invasion foci; 2) those having all links of the focus, but lacking pathogen circulation; and 3) those having all conditions for pathogen circulation and the human beings are infected from the local infested fish--Type C. By studying opisthorchiasis in the Orenburg Region, the authors have established the rate of morbidity growth and their nonuniform distribution in this region. The findings have formed the basis of dividing the Orenburg Region by the endemicity of opisthorchiasis into 4 types of areas: non-endemic, low, moderate, and high endemic. The results of districting the region by the endemicity of areas, the nature of foci, and the social and natural factors determining an epidemiological process have formed the basis of a differential package of preventive measures against opisthorchiasis in the Orenburg Region.

Human recombination-activating gene (RAG) deficiency can manifest with distinct clinical and immunological phenotypes. By applying a multiomics approach to a large group of -mutated patients, we aimed at characterizing the immunopathology associated with each phenotype. Although defective T and B cell development is common to all phenotypes, patients with hypomorphic variants can generate T and B cells with signatures of immune dysregulation and produce autoantibodies to a broad range of self-antigens, including type I interferons.

The combination of macroporous cryogels with synthetic peptide factors represents a promising but poorly explored strategy for the development of extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking scaffolds for peripheral nerve (PN) repair. In this study, IKVAV peptide was functionalized with terminal lysine residues to allow its in situ cross-linking with gelatin macromer, resulting in the formation of IKVAV-containing proteinaceous cryogels. The controllable inclusion and distribution of the peptide molecules within the scaffold was verified using a fluorescently labelled peptide counterpart.

Background: Among several treatment options for BRAF-mutant metastatic melanoma, a combination of BRAF inhibitor, MEK inhibitor, and anti-PDL1 antibody seems to be a new emergent approach recently registered in the Russian Federation. It is still not clear which patient population benefits more from this simultaneous use of three drugs instead of its sequencing.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate patients' characteristics treated in real practice in 14 Russian regions by triple combination and to analyze their outcomes depending on biomarkers (PD-L1 expression).
