A comparative study was made of the percentage of cells bearing the receptor for the third component of the complement (LRC) and of the total cell content in the rat lymphoid organs as related to the time course of cancerogenesis. It was shown that impairment of the maturation processes in the thymus and in the peripheral organs (lymph nodes, blood) of the immunocompetent systems produces changes in intercellular interactions, reflected by accumulation of B cells, i. e. LRC, and their delayed maturation to antibody producers.

Structuro-functional surrogates of response to subcallosal cingulate deep brain stimulation for depression.

Subcallosal cingulate deep brain stimulation produces long-term clinical improvement in approximately half of patients with severe treatment-resistant depression. We hypothesized that both structural and functional brain attributes may be important in determining responsiveness to this therapy. In a treatment-resistant depression subcallosal cingulate deep brain stimulation cohort, we retrospectively examined baseline and longitudinal differences in MRI-derived brain volume (n = 65) and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-PET glucose metabolism (n = 21) between responders and non-responders.

Material And Methods: Polypeptide and lipid spectra of ErM were studied by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel and thin-layer chromatography, respectively, the activity of transport ATP, lipid peroxidation (LPO) and antioxidant defense were studied with standard techniques in 32 EH patients before and 4 weeks after combined therapy with EM and hypothiazide.
Results: If previous EM therapy failed, combined treatment's effect was 62.
The authors analyze the status of cationic transmembranous transport in leukocytes in patients with chronic secondary pyelonephritis (CPN) as related to the clinical manifestations of pathology and immune response. 117 patients with CPN were examined. In 58 patients, pyelonephritis was associated with nephrolithiasis, in 59 with different abnormalities of the kidneys and urinary tract.

It was determined, that the level of labelling of nucleoli of light neurons increased in the early postresuscitation period, while that of dark neurons decreased as compared to check samples. The level of labelling of extranucleolar chromatin increased in both light and dark neurons in the cortex layers under investigation during the 1st hour post resuscitation.

Adenine and cytosine DNA-methylases recognizing 4 to 6-member unique and degenerative nucleotide sequences having a symmetrical and asymmetrical structure were used for probing. The use of a set of methylases enabled the selection of a probe that was the most sensitive for the given pathology.
