[Biochemical and functional changes during immunization of rats with angiotensin II].

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity in serum and some brain areas, level of angiotensin I in the blood and drinking behaviour during immunization of rats against conjugate of angiotensin II with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied. The results show that an increase in antibodies against angiotensin II was correlated with elevated ACE activity in serum. There was a distinct tendency towards elevated level of angiotensin I in the blood. After a 6 month's immunization ACE-activity was reduced twofold to threefold in midbrain and hypothalamus-thalamus. During immunization water-uptake was increased by 40-45%.

[Dynamics of nociceptive sensitivity and blood levels of steroid hormones in Wistar rats].

Changes in nociceptive sensitivity and the level of steroid hormones (corticosterone and testosterone) in the plasma of male Wistar rats were studied in repeatedly applied painful stimuli. According to the changes in nociceptive sensitivity the animals were divided into 6 groups. A reliable corticosterone increment and testosterone decrement in the plasma were caused by repeatedly applied painful stimuli. The data observed could be used as individual indices characteristic of animals of this strain.

[Blood levels of corticosterone, aldosterone, angiotensin and ACTH in rats after deafferentation of the tongue].

The influence of tongue deafferentation on the plasma level of sodium homeostasis-controlling hormones has been studied. Using radioimmunoassay, high corticosterone and aldosterone plasma levels were discovered in rats with tongue deafferentation, as compared to sham-operated controls. ACTH and angiotensin I plasma concentrations in deafferentated rats were the same as in sham-operated rats. The role of emotional factors of taste perception in sodium homeostasis control is being discussed.

[Reaction of the ovaries of 1- and 4-day-old rat pups to transplantation].

Morphofunctional peculiarities of ovarian development in 1- and 4-day-old rats have been studied under conditions of their transplantation into mature female rats. In 30 days in transplants of both series of the experiments atretic process develops. Better preservation of the general pool of the germ cells and follicles is obtained at transplantation of the ovaries from the 4-day-old donors; their ovocytes at the operation time are at the stationary state of meiosis prophase. Ovocytes of 1-day-old animals, being at the stages of early prophase, are more vulnerable at homotransplantation.

[Neuroendocrine mechanisms of participation of the raphe nuclei in the development of hypertensive reactions in emotional stress].

The experiments on cats and rabbits have studied electroencephalographic, endocrine and blood pressure responses to stress (5-hour immobilization with electrical foot shock) before and after coagulation of the midbrain nuclei raphe. Blood pressure and adrenal responses in advanced (4-hour) stress were elevated in intact animals, the responses attenuating after coagulation of the nuclei raphe. Background bioelectrical activity of the midbrain reticular formation and hypothalamus was found to be activated in the operated animals. Stress was followed by the reduction in bioelectrical changes of the above subcortical structures with the parallel development of "burst" activity in the dorsal hippocamp.

[ACTH, corticosterone and beta-endorphin in the blood plasma of rats under prolonged immobilization stress].

Radioimmunoassays were employed to study variation in the concentration of corticosterone, ACTH and beta-endorphin in rat blood plasma at different times of the 30-hour immobilization and under the effect of a short-term action of ecologically significant negative stimulation emanating from other animals. Both prolonged immobilization stress and short-term emotional reaction produced appreciable alterations in the blood plasma content of all the hormones under study. The findings indicate that variations in the corticosterone and beta-endorphin levels were in the best agreement.

[Morphogenesis and histophysiology of the corpus luteum].

A great amount of different problems on morphogenesis and histophysiology of the corpus luteum is presented, with an emphasis on light optic and ultrastructural data that characterize the developmental dynamics of the corpus luteum. The vascular reaction is described in details, beginning from the preovulatory period. The total high vascularization rate is demonstrated and certain information on ultrastructure of newly formed capillaries and macrophages is concerned with. For the first time the authors' data on intravascular macrophages are given. The role of macrophages in the function and structural dynamics of the corpus luteum is discussed. Owing to the results obtained histochemically, ultrastructurally and biochemically, the subject on dynamics of the corpus luteum hormonoproduction, on processes participating in the hormone secretion, as well as on the role of the interstitial tissue in the corpus luteum formation is considered. The data from the literature and those of the authors are presented concerning the means and ways of progesteron transport in the form of vesicles, granules, or by means of molecular diffusion. Participation of the corpus luteum macrophages (tissue and vascular ones) in processes of synthesis and transport of progesteron is analysed. The role of prostaglandins in the chain of regulation of development, function and involution of the corpus luteum is studied. The changes in balance of prostaglandins, when prostaglandin F2 is administered result in decreasing amount of progesterone in blood. In the experiment, synthesis of prostaglandins is blocked by indometacin administration and it causes certain disturbances in luteal transformation.

[Neurophysiological analysis of the development of endocrine and hypertensive reactions in long-term emotional stress].

A study was made of the effect of chronic emotional stress on the formation of hypertension in animals. This was shown to be related to dynamic changes in the function of the CNS, particularly in the hypothalamic apparatus of the neuroendocrine control. The above changes played a role in the formation of hypertensive vascular reactions accompanied by a high hormonal secretion of the adrenal cortex and thyroid. During stabilization of high arterial blood pressure at the late stages of the "after-effect", the hormonal secretion returns to normal.

[Gonadal endocrine function indicators during initial stages of postnatal ontogenesis of the female sable].

By means of radioimmunoassay, 17 beta-estradiol-, androgen- (testosterone and dihydrotestosterone) and progesterone contents were determined in the peripheral blood of the female sables, aged 2 to 27 months, during postnatal ontogenesis initial stage. Under the action of seasonal factors steroid level was sharply decreased in the animals of the all ages within the autumnal period, whereas the gonadal function activation lowered over a period of February and March, when "the spring animation" of wild stables is seen. An increase in the sex hormone level was more pronounced in females over one year old. The compared concentrations of hormones, studied in the 5-months' females (the growth stopping). 14 to 17-months' animals (the 1st year reproductive period) and 27-months' stables (the 2nd year reproductive period) were close to those of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone contents in fertile animals. It is suggested that the sexual system of the 5-months' females is ready for the reproductive processes but their secretory activity is sharply reduced, probably under the seasonal factor influence.

[Effect of prostaglandin F2-alpha on the course of pregnancy and 17-beta-estradiol concentration in blood plasma of mice].

The effect of prostaglandin F2 alpha (at a dose of 2 mg/kg, per each stage of development) on the mouse preimplantation development and 17 beta-estradiol concentration in the blood plasma was studied. Prostaglandin F2 alpha caused inhibition of mitoses in the embryo and decreased the percentage of embryos liberated from zona pellucida. Meanwhile blood plasma showed diminution of 17 beta-estradiol level as a result of administering prostaglandin F2 alpha. In physiological conditions a significant rise in 17 beta-estradiol level was recorded at the stage of blastocyst liberated from zona pellucida.

[Study of the characteristics of transcortin and the progesterone binding protein of the plasma of pregnant guinea pig].

Experiments were conducted with the plasma of pregnant guinea pigs; it was shown that the corticosteroid-binding protein (CBP) of the plasma in a pregnant guinea pig (in difference from the CBP of other species) bound cortisol only, and not progesterone. Progesterone-binding protein (PBP) of these animals bound progesterone, but not glucocorticoids and their metabolites. The binding capacity of CBP proved to be several hundred microgram per cent of cortizol and of PBP--about 100 microgram per cent of progesterone. The association constant of the CBP with cortisol constituted 10(6) M-1, and of the PBP-10(-8) M-1. These proteins are also analysed according to a number of other parameters.

[The individual characteristics of the nociceptive sensitivity of Wistar rats correlated with the content of steroid hormones in the blood plasma].

In male rats of Wistar strain individual nociceptive sensitivity properties were studied in correlation with steroid hormones level in the plasma. Seven groups of experimental animals were observed remarkable for dynamics of nociceptive sensitivity. Repeatedly applied test painful stimuli caused reliable changes of corticosterone and testosterone level in the plasma. Individual differences were found of the level of steroid hormones in the plasma in rats from different groups.
