[Analysis of linkage between biochemical and morphological markers of 1R-, 2R-, and 5R-chromosomes in rye with autofertility mutations in main incompatibility loci].

In F2 hybrids between self-sterile plants of the Volkhova cultivar and self-fertile lines with established self-fertility mutations (sf-mutations) at the major incompatibility loci S (1R), Z (2R), and T (5R), the effect of sf-mutations on the inheritance of secalin-encoding, isozyme, and morphological markers located on the same chromosomes was investigated. Linkage between loci Prx7 and S and locus Sec3 coding for high-molecular-weight secalins on chromosome 1R was shown for the first time The frequency of recombination between Prx7 and Sec3 and between S and Sec3 was 29.1 +/- 4.8% and 30.9 +/- 7.0%, respectively. Independent inheritance of locus Z and isozyme markers of chromosome 2R, Est3/5 and beta-Glu, from locus Sec2 encoding 75-kDa gamma-secalins was shown; in hybrids, the recombination frequency between Est3/5 and locus Z varied from 19.2 +/- 8.1 to 50%. Independent inheritance of morphological (Ddw and Hs) and isozyme markers (Est4, Est6/9, and Aco2) of chromosome 5R from locus T located on the same chromosome was demonstrated.

[Myoglobin as an indicator of stress damage].

The effects of single 1-hour immobilization stress exposure and of long-term (40 days) adaptation to intermittent high altitude hypoxia (in hypobaric chamber at "altitude" 4000 m, 4 hr, a day) on serum myoglobin content were studied in Wistar rats. It has been shown that such stress exposure induced the 2.5 fold increase in the serum myoglobin content. The adaptation did not change the myoglobin content, but effectively limited mentioned above stress-induced increase in the serum myoglobin level. These data suggest that serum myoglobin content can be used as a criterion for stress damage and efficiency of factors protecting against stress damage.

[The immunological indices of patients with echinococcosis undergoing preoperative hemoexfusions].

The immunologic parameters were studied in 38 patients with hydatid disease of the liver and abdomen before and after a single hemoexfusion (HE) in a volume of 400 ml. Among the patients who were examined there were those with uncomplicated hydatid disease of the liver (group I, second clinical stage, 25 persons), patients with suppuration of hydatid cysts (group 11, 10 persons), and two patients with multiple hydatid cysts complicated by their suppuration and calcification with involvement of large areas of the liver. Comparative analysis of immunological parameters in patients before and in the first 24 hours after HE showed a difference between the groups of patients and the controls. The parameters were restored to their initial values in patients of both groups 3-5 days after HE. The results of the study allow the conclusion that in screening patients with hydatid disease of the liver and abdominal cavity for preoperative HE a strict individual approach is necessary with the patient's general condition, the clinical form of the disease, and complications on the part of the cysts being taken into account.

[Endocrine response to extracorporeal circulation].

The authors analyze the results of measuring the content of vasopressin, renin, angiotensin II and aldosterone coupled with the results of studying hemodynamics, acid-base state, and lactate in the arterial blood during operations on the heart in 32 patients with different acquired heart diseases. The main attention was concentrated on studies into the nature of humoral changes during extracorporeal circulation in three types of anesthesia. In group I, anesthesia was maintained by fentanyl given in a dose of 5-6 micrograms/kg/h, diazepam (0.1 mg/kg/h), and arduan (0.02 mg/kg/h). In the second observation group, at the beginning of perfusion the patients were administered trimetotan (artonad) (0.2 mg/kg), and in group III, the dose of fentanyl was raised during perfusion to 10-12 micrograms/kg/h. It is concluded that during extracorporeal circulation, it is desirable that the dose of fentanyl be increased to attain more adequate anesthesia in that period of heart surgery. The magnitude of humoral changes occurring in the body during extracorporeal circulation served as a criterion for anesthesia adequacy.

[Hormone and mediator content in the blood of the adrenals and in the peripheral blood in hypertension].

The concentration of the fractions of corticosteroids, aldosterone, catecholamines, and cyclic nucleotides (cAMP and cGMP) in blood of the adrenal veins and the activity of renin in blood of the renal veins were studied in 22 patients with stages IIA and IIB hypertensive disease. At the same time the content of these substances in the peripheral blood was determined and compared with the level of steroid and catecholamine excretion in the daily urine. An increase in the content of free 11 OCS and F fractions in the peripheral blood and blood of the adrenal veins was revealed in all patients examined.

[Determination of local muscular blood flow in the hindlimbs of dogs following electrolysis of conducting vascular prostheses previously implanted in the abdominal portion of the aorta].

Peripheral blood flow in the posterior limbs in electrolysis of electroconductive vascular prosthesis preliminarily implanted into the abdominal aorta was experimentally determined on 25 mongrel dogs. Following reestablishment of the main blood flow a positive electrical potential (3--4 V) was fed on the prosthesis by means of a current conductor. Tissue blood flow was radiographically studied with xenon-133. Results of this investigation showed that during feeding the positive potential to the electroconductive prosthesis an increase of tissue blood flow occurred in the canine posterior limbs. After the cessation of the current feeding to the prosthesis the tissue blood flow occurred in the canine posterior limbs. After the cessation of the current feeding to the prosthesis the tissue blood flow decreased to the initial values. A conclusion was drawn that a positive potential from the source of direct current should be fed constantly to the electroconductive prosthesis or prolonged stable tissue blood flow increase.
