Cardiovascular diseases remain one of the main causes of hospitalization, disability, and mortality. The usual monitoring model and rare face-to-face visits often do not keep up with the actual clinical dynamics. This partly explains the growing interest in we…
Introduction. Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of death and disability in the world population. Serotonin plays a significant role in the development and progression of atherosclerotic processes due to its two classical functions – platelet aggregati…
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. An important task in cardiology is the search and study of new biomarkers. Scientific interest is actively focused on the study of interleukin-11 (IL-11). The purpose of the literature…
Introduction. The study of the level of the so-called «youth proteins» TIMP-2 and irisin in diseases of the cardiovascular system is not only of theoretical interest, but also of practical importance, as it outlines new ways to treat these diseases. Purpose of…
Background. Congenital heart defects can be embryopathies formed due to an imbalance in the processes of differentiation and proliferation in cardiac progenitor cells. One of the reasons for these disorders may be genetically restricted signaling, including th…
Among a very significant number of possible variants of posttranslational modifications (PTM) affecting the contractile function of the myocardium, the most significant effect is exerted by posttranslational phosphorylation of protein components of the contrac…
Osteopontin (OPN) is a highly phosphorylated multifunctional glycosphoprotein with important functional activity in cancer and cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus (DM), kidney and liver pathology, inflammatory process, and also influencing cell viabilit…
Due to the discovery of the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and the establishment of its role in lipoprotein metabolism, it became possible to deliver new groups of effective drugs for the treatment of dyslipidemia. The main function of P…
The problems of longevity increase and its quality improvement are actual for the modern gerontology. So far it is necessary to complete tasks of early diagnostic and target prophylactic of the age-associated pathology. There are presented the data concerning …
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. 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…
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…
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…
In acute focal ischemia of the heart and brain similar processes are developing despite the obvious differences in the structure, function, and blood supply of these organs. It was shown that under ischemic conditions synthesis stress induced proteins includin…
In the presented review a new potential risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease such as microflora of the human gastrointestinal tract is considered. The modern concept of lipid metabolism and its effects on human health outlining the basic …
Early endothelialization of the inner surface of cardiovascular grafts is imperative for achieving successful functioning in the body. Biofunctionalization of synthetic materials allows to create biomimetic surfaces by incorporating bioactive molecules capable…
Introduction. Oxidative processes in the pathogenesis of chronic cardiovascular diseases play a key role. Oxidative stress causes the damage of many cellular components, including lipids and proteins. Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein triggers …
Introduction. Ambient air pollution is important worldwide problem. Numerous studies have found associations between air pollution and respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and infant mortality. Children are more susceptible to the air pollu…
