Introduction. The study of the genetic mechanisms of migraines is based on the investigation of genes of possible susceptibility and analysis of the influence of gene polymorphism in combination with environmental factors that form the pathogenetic chain of th…
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome is the final stage of the progression of the infection induced by HIV. Without antiretroviral therapy, the period from the infection to the death of the patient lasts for about 10 years. The gut microbiota changes were prove…
There are presented data about rejuvenating mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) and its physiological functions. This is a new neurotrophic factor, produced by the mesencephalic astrocytes and it is different from other factors by its ac…
Introduction. In this research the frequency of variant alleles of genes for xenobiotic biotransformation in women living in a highly urbanized region of Western Siberia and having children with congenital heart diseases was studied. Materials and methods. Wom…
Introduction. In recent years, there have been aroused and actively studied mutations associated with Toll-like receptor genes (TLRs). The emerging interest is related to the identification of many associations between the TLRs polymorphism and the development…
Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder with etiology not clearly determined yet. Scientists associate its development with various factors including excessive expression of some genes and unstable social environment. The World Health Organization estim…
Background. Genotyping of the tumor samples is necessary for a personalized approach in the treatment of patients with malignancies. The identification of somatic mutations in EGFR and KRAS genes can help to predict the course of the disease and to individuali…
The aim of the study was to investigate the expression of the MMP-1 gene in patients with a diagnosis of localized scleroderma. Methods. The study included 12 patients with an established diagnosis of localized scleroderma. The material of the study consisted …
The review presents data on the role of the nuclear factor NF-κB and the von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL) in the development of kidney cancer. Chemo- and radioresistance, specific for renal cell carcinoma, represented a significant problem in the treatment of p…
Introduction. The origin of the genetic predisposition to family adenomatous polyposis is associated with functional disorders of the repair system. The molecular mechanism of this phenomenon is not sufficiently studied and need clarification. The aim of the s…
Introduction. New technologies of DNA genotyping and sequencing contribute to the rapid accumulation of our knowledge about human genomic variations and search for inherited determinants of complex genetic traits. There is a large amount of data on association…
Introduction. Her2/neu is one of the most studied molecular target the overexpression of which is associated with poor prognosis and aggressive course of the disease. The use of modern non-invasive radionuclide techniques with the application of highly affinit…
Introduction. The current direction of modern medicine is the development of new methods for non-invasive diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular, Parkinson's disease. The goal of the investigation was the comparative analysis of α-synuclein and…
Introduction. The Alzheimer disease (AD) is the socially important neurodegenerative disease. The promising way of the early lifetime diagnosis of the AD is the investigation of the expression of signal molecules by cells in a cerebrospinal fluid, blood lympho…
Introduction. The study of molecular mechanisms of the development of kidney cancer is one of the actual problems in oncology. There is conflicting information about the importance of steroid hormone receptors in the kidney cancer. The aim of the study was to …
Introduction. The search of molecular markers for early diagnostics, prognosis, and identification of new objects for molecular-targeted therapy of primary bone tumors remains one of the most important tasks despite the significant achievements in the treatmen…
Introduction. The incidence of infectious and inflammatory diseases, including sepsis, increases with the age, which is explained by the age-related decrease in the content of sex steroids. However, the features of the course of systemic inflammatory responses…
Epigenetics studies inherited mechanisms capable of modulating gene expression without altering the DNA nucleotide sequence. Until very recently, epigenetics included inherited mechanisms, such as DNA methylation and histone modification. As of today, a large …
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are considered to be one of the leading causes of lethality in patients of older age groups. In the last decade, the issue of finding a material for effective non-invasive diagnosis of CVD has become urgent. The review considers t…
The aim of the study was to analyze two single nucleotide substitutions in the NOS2 (rs2779249, c-1290G>T, 5'-region) and NOS3 (rs2070744, c-813C>T, in tron 1) genes in psoriasis patients. Materials and methods. DNA samples from 88 psoriasis patients and 365 c…
