Introduction. The main function of alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is inhibition of neutrophil elastinase and control over TNFα secretion. Anti-inflammatory properties of A1AT are manifested in leucocyte migration decrease and proliferation of T-lymphocytes through…
Introduction. The decline in collagen I type synthesis and the gain in matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity are the main characteristics of the molecular skin aging. MMPs are ferments which cleave collagen. The aim of the study was to investigate the infl…
Introduction. The specific activity of blood coagulation factor VIIa depends, among other things, on the presence of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) and phosphate residues in the molecule. Thus the authenticity of glycosylation profile as one efficacy an…
Communities of microorganisms are a set of species that interact with each other and occupy the same niche where competitive or mutually beneficial relationships can occur. Biofilms are only one of many types of microbial communities, the study of which has be…
Introduction. The pathological state of hypoxia of the body occurs with an inadequate supply of tissues and organs with oxygen or with a violation of its utilization in the process of biological oxidation. Ethylmethylhydroxypyridine has a multi-component mecha…
Progress in clinical research and medicine has contributed to a significant reduction in the worldwide mortality rate. Currently, the strategy of developed countries is directed at increasing expectancy and improving life quality. As a consequence, the modern …
