Interaction of neuronal and immune systems during stress

Gavrilov Y.V., Korneva E.A.

Abstract

The present work represents the review of literature resources concerning central mechanisms of neuroimmune interactions during stress as well as the results of experiments carried on by the authors. The mechanisms of development of stress-induced immune dysfunctions are being discussed.The afferent and efferent ways of neuro-immune interactions are being observed. The data of investigations of brain reactions, in particular hypothalamic structures, to administration of different antigens and their alteration by stress stimuli are demonstrated. The intensity of definite hypothalamic structures reactions to antigen injection after electric pain stimulation was shown to be decreased, their algorithm being changed and the quality of the changes depended on the nature of injected antigen (lipopolysaccharide or bovine serum albumin). Complex of cited data suggest that the revealed stress-induced alterations in brain reactions to antigen administration associated with the decrease in the quantity of splenic antibody-producing cells are significant for immunosupression development caused by electric pain stimulation.

Role of muscarinic antagonist methacine metabolites in regulation of inflammation

Sapronoѵ N.S., Nezhinskaya G.I., Vladykin A.L.

Abstract

It is known, that synthetic muscarinic antagonists ipratropium bromide, trospium chloride, oxybutynin chloride form pharmacologically inactive metabolites and have slight side effects compared with muscarinic antagonists, which metabolites possess pharmacological activity. On the model of the quaternary muscarinic antagonist methacine we revealed that this drug undergoes hydrolysis at the ester bond to yield pharmacologically inactive 2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetic acid and pharmacologically active muscarinic/nicotinic cholinoceptor agonist choline. Long-term course administration of methacine increases its antimuscarinic effects, connected with side effects extension. However single administration of methacine with cholinesterase inhibitor is an effective procedure to pathochemical stage of anaphylactic shock prevention. Methacine-induced immune response (non-neuronal effects) limits stress ulcer formation under water immersion stress influence. Obtained data may be significant for mechanism of new muscarinic antagonists action understanding and for scope evaluation of drug metabolites activity therapeutic application.

Totolian A.A.

Abstract

Aim. The matter of presented paper addressed to medical workers with aim to give them modern information on the role of group В streptococcal (GBS) strains in pathology of pregnancy and in perinatal diseases. Basic contents. The review is given on present scientific literature and health care experience concerning leading role of GBS in pathology of pregnancy and newborns. Information is described on the mechanism of GBS carryership, their distribution in genital ways of women and men, ability to cause severe invasive neonatal diseases with high lethality and influence on development of embryo. It is obvious that infection diseases caused by GBS should be considered as infection transmitted through sexual contacts. The high expedience of prophylactic measures was underlined with the aim to diminish the indexes of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Some molecular and genetic subjects on GBS diagnostics and recombinant vaccine construction are discussed. Conclusion. The development of recommendations for prophylactic measures and national regulation scheme against GBS perinatal diseases was grounded.

Opportunities of the estimation of the state of the fetus ising the method of the fetal cardiac signal extraction and analysis

Roshchevsky M.P., Kolomeyets N.L., Kuzivanova A.S., Lebedeva O.N., Murashko M.A., Roshchevskaya I.M.

Abstract

The character of the cardioelectric potential distribution is the diagnostic indication of the cardiovascular system state. Signals recorded from maternal abdomen besides the useful component - the fetal electrocardiogram - also contain artefacts; the maternal electrocardiogram, mother's muscles activity or artifacts resulting from fetal movements. Essential problem is the efficient suppression of maternal electrocardiogram, since its amplitude many times exceeds the level of the useful signal and the frequency bands of maternal and fetal electrocardiographic signals overlapped. A computational scheme is represented for the fetal electrocardiographic mapping. This experience will allow us to come up with a system for effective diagnostics of early symptoms of fetal distress on the basis of recording and analysis of the bioelectrical signals recorded only from the abdomen.

Morphological characteristics of lesions of the lowerextremity arteries in diabetes mellitus patients in Russia

Kaputin M.Y., Ovcharenko D.V., Platonov S.A., Dudanov I.P.

Abstract

Endovascular techniques are widely used in many countries to treat peripheral artery lesions in diabetes mellitus patients suffering from neuroischemic foot ulcers and foot gangrene. However, the most comprehensive studies on this issue were carried out in Italy, where the incidence of peripheral atherosclerosis-is relatively low. In order to be able to apply the Italian findings in Russia, we have studied the morphology of lesions of the lower-extremity arteries in the Russian population of diabetes mellitus patients, and have compared our observations to the Italian data. Our study has revealed a greater severity of lesions of the lower-extremity arteries in the Russian population of diabetes mellitus patients. This, in addition to the often inadequate postoperative care, explains the higher incidence of recurrent critical ischemia of the lower extremities in the Russian patients.
