The review is devoted to the studies of immune check-point (programmed death) molecules – PD-1 receptor and its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2, which play an important role in the regulation of immune response. Special attention is paid to soluble (s) forms of PD-1 a…
Introduction. Patients with surgical menopause are at risk for an osteopenic syndrome. For adequate medical correction of osteoporosis, it is necessary to clarify the mechanisms of the pathogenesis of this condition. It is known that osteoclasts, the activatio…
Introduction. The laboratory diagnosis of celiac disease is based on the detection of antibodies against deamidated gliadin peptides (anti-DGP), autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase (anti-tTG) and endomysium (AEA), as well as genotyping of HLA-DQ2/8 loci.…
Introduction. Hemophilia A is a frequent X-linked recessive disorder associated with the absence or functional defect of blood clotting factor VIII. Вoth point mutations and large structural rearrangements – deletions, duplications, and inversions were describ…
Introduction. New directions of the modern cell biology are the development of methods for reprogramming stem cells into differentiated ones and reverse reprogramming of differentiated cells into stem cells. Transient processes in cells from the one stable sta…
Introduction. Inflammatory myofibroblastic neoplasm (IMN) of the spleen is extremely rare. It is often benign lesion, represented mainly by fusiform myofibroblasts and inflammatory cells (plasma, lymphocytes and eosinophilic granulocytes). Clinically, the sple…
Cardiomyopathies are diseases that affect the heart muscle. They are characterized by myocardial dysfunction in the absence or low severity of common cardiovascular diseases, such as coronary atherosclerosis, hypertension, valvular heart diseases. Cardiomyopat…
Introduction. Neuroglia plays an important role in maintaining the stable functioning of the CNS. Of particular importance are neuroglial cells in the organization of the immune system of the brain, activating both with physical, physiological damage, and with…
Introduction. Dyes have long been successfully used in medicine as exogenous chromophores to increase the effectiveness of the interaction of light with biological tissues, as contrast agents and photosensitizers in diagnosis and photodynamic therapy. At prese…
Introduction. The initial state of an organism and its initial reactivity are the main prognostic criteria for the individual radiosensitivity evaluation. Particulars of the DNA structure and chromatin conformation determine in many respects the cell radiosens…
Introduction. The correct functioning of the circulatory system allows providing stability of the brain and prevents the progression of pathological processes. The search for prognostic markers which make it possible to predict the appearance and adverse cours…
Introduction. Excess and lack of adipose tissue are associated with a violation of its functions, the mass of adipose tissue and its distribution play an important role in the development of metabolic disorders. The study of the influence of the main factors o…
