The paper reflects the issues of pathogenesis of the chronic liver diseases (CLD). The role of the cell membrane lipid peroxidation as well as oxidative stress and fibrosis formation in the development and progression of liver lesions of various aetiologies. are represented in details. Particular attention is given to the justification of pathogenetic approaches to the treatment of liver disease. Presented the evidence base of successful application of the standardized silymarin as a part of the drug Legalon in the CLD of different etiology.

Alzheimer's disease is a complicated, multifaceted, neurodegenerative illness that places an increasing strain on healthcare systems. Due to increasing malfunction and death of nerve cells, the person suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD) slowly and steadily loses their memories, cognitive functions and even their personality. Although medications may temporarily enhance memory, there are currently no permanent therapies that can halt or cure this irreversible neurodegenerative process.

A knowledge gap may exist when attempting to identify the pathogenetic mechanisms resulting in the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) or hypotonic hyponatremia. Ectopic secretion of antidiuretic hormone [ADH] is the classic cause of SIADH. But another form of inappropriate secretion of ADH occurs when interleukin 6 is activated.

Acne and acne sequelae can have an important impact on patients' quality of life, affecting interpersonal relationships and social functioning. Acne-induced scars (AIS) and acne-induced macular hyperpigmentation (AIH), in particular, are a major concern for patients with acne, as their management is challenging and often unsatisfactory. Retinoids are considered the mainstay of acne treatment because of their action on multiple pathogenetic factors, and there is increasing evidence that they can also improve AIS and AIH.

Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), a rare neuroendocrine tumor comprising 3-5% of thyroid cancers, arises from calcitonin-producing parafollicular C cells. Despite aggressive behavior, surgery remains the primary curative treatment, with limited efficacy reported for radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Recent efforts have explored the pathogenetic mechanisms of MTC, identifying it as a highly vascularized neoplasm overexpressing pro-angiogenic factors.

Mutations in the SLC25A38 gene are responsible for the second most common form of congenital sideroblastic anemia (CSA), a severe condition for which no effective treatment exists. We developed and characterized a K562 erythroleukemia cell line with markedly reduced expression of the SLC25A38 protein (A38-low cells). This model successfully recapitulated the main features of CSA, including reduced heme content and mitochondrial respiration, increase in mitochondrial iron, ROS levels and sensitivity to oxidative stress.
