Objective: To establish the level of chromosomal instability in human peripheral blood lymphocytes during thedevelopment of secondary radiation-induced bystander effect.
Materials And Methods: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes; culture of human non-small-cell lung cancer cell lineA549 (irradiated in vitro by 137Cs in a dose of 0.50 Gy/unirradiated). Cytogenetic analysis of uniformly colored chromosomes of human peripheral blood lymphocytes with determination of the frequency of all types of aberrations.
Results: The mean group frequency of chromosome aberrations (4.75 per 100 cells) in human peripheral blood lymphocytes co-cultivated with conditioned culture medium from bystander cells of human non-small cell lung cancercell lines A-549 exceeded the control (1.60 per 100 cells) (p < 0.001) due to an increase in the frequency of singlefragments from 1.20 to 3.95 per 100 cells (p < 0.001). The mean group frequency of chromosome aberrations andchromatid-type aberrations in human peripheral blood lymphocytes during the development of primary (5.80 and4.35 per 100 cells, respectively) and secondary (4.75 and 3.95 per 100 cells, respectively) radiation-induced bystander effect did not significantly differ from each other (p > 0.05).
Conclusions: Under the conditions of co-cultivation of human peripheral blood lymphocytes with conditioned culture medium from bystander cells of human non-small cell lung cancer A-549, a secondary radiation-induced bystander effect was registered, the cytogenetic manifestation of which was an increase in the level of chromosomalinstability due to the rise in the frequency of chromatid-type aberrations (single fragments). The levels of chromatid-type chromosome aberrations during the development of the primary and secondary radiation-inducedbystander effect did not differ significantly. The development of the secondary radiation-induced bystander effectdid not affect the induction of chromosomal-type aberrations.

Purpose: X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (XALD) can affect the eyes. Existing therapies are hampered by early quantitative examination methods. This study used an optical coherence tomography angiography system (OCTA) to investigate retinal microvascular density and perfusion in XALD patients.

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) presents a complex and challenging disorder in both the diagnosis and treatment, with emerging evidence suggesting a role of small fibre pathology (SFP) in its pathophysiology. The significance of the role of SFP in FMS remains unclear; however, recent evidence suggests degeneration and dysfunction of the peripheral nervous system, particularly small unmyelinated fibres, which may influence pathophysiology and underlying phenotype. Both skin biopsy and corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) have consistently demonstrated that ~ 50% of people with FMS have SFP.

Microthrombus formation is associated with COVID-19 severity; however, the detailed mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated mouse models with severe pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection by using our in vivo two-photon imaging system. In the lungs of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice, increased expression of adhesion molecules in intravascular neutrophils prolonged adhesion time to the vessel wall, resulting in platelet aggregation and impaired lung perfusion.

This study systematically reviewed the literature on the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer(CRC) with traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), aiming to present a more intuitive and concise overview of existing evidence. Four major Chinese databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed, were searched for randomized controlled trial(RCT) on TCM treatment of CRC. The retrieval period was from database inception to August 1, 2023.
