Reactivity of tracheal smooth muscles in albino rats with experimental diabetes mellitus treated with a new complex compound of oxovanadium (IV) and isonicotinic acid hydrazide.

We studied functional properties of tracheal smooth muscle cells in rats with diabetes mellitus. Reactivity of tracheal smooth muscles increased in rats with experimental alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus. A new complex compound of oxovanadium (IV) and isonicotinic acid hydrazide affected reactivity of tracheal smooth muscles in albino rats with experimental type I diabetes mellitus. This new organic vanadium-containing compound reduced contractility of tracheal smooth muscles in rats and potentiated relaxation of smooth muscle cells in the trachea in response to exogenous nitric oxide.

Changes in the count of pancreatic beta- and alpha-cells and blood glucose level in rats with alloxan-induced diabetes.

We estimated the count of pancreatic alpha- and beta-cells and blood glucose level at various stages of alloxan-induced diabetes in rats. Alloxan decreased the count of insulin-producing beta-cells, but increased the number of glucagon-secreting alpha-cells in the pancreas (week 1 of diabetes). These changes were accompanied by hyperglycemia. The decrease in blood glucose level in diabetic rats was associated with an increase in beta-cell count against the background of high density of pancreatic alpha-cells.

Correction of lipid composition of the lymph and blood during immediate type hypersensitivity.

Combination therapy with hydrocortisone and norepinephrine improved resorption and transport functions of the lymphatic system during anaphylactic shock, which was accompanied by a considerable increase in the contents of total lipids, phospholipids, cholesterol, nonesterified fatty acids, and malonic dialdehyde (lipid peroxidation product) in the lymph and blood. It should be emphasized that lipid concentration in the lymph increased to a greater extent than in the blood.

[Indications for hypoxitherapy].

Hypoxytherapy is the non-medicinal therapeutic method using gaseous hypoxic mixture (GHM) with decreased oxygen contents. The method is based on the activation of body protective mechanisms, phagocytosis stimulation, microcirculation improvement, sedative effect. GHM therapy is indicated in neurosis, CHD, hypertension, chronic pulmonary obstructive disease, to prevent from side effect of ionizing radiation, to increase the resistance during complex therapy of oncologic patients. The method is contraindicated in acute diseases, decompensation of chronic diseases. The authors noted that it is reasonable to use GHM low doses in rehabilitation period after acute pneumonia and in geriatrics. Quite satisfactory effect was obtained in therapy of lower extremity atherosclerosis. For the first time the fact of concrement passage under GHM influence was registered and hypoxytherapy was included into the complex therapy of urolithiasis.

Correction of lymph circulation during immediate hypersensitivity reaction.

We measured lymph flow rate in the thoracic lymphatic duct of dogs with anaphylactic shock receiving mono- or combination therapy with norepinephrine and hydrocortisone. Intensification of lymph circulation improved resorption and transport of metabolic products from the interstitial space through lymphatic vessels and stimulated exchange processes in the blood and tissues during allergic alterations.

Key role of mitochondria in apoptosis of lymphocytes.

Changes in the mitochondrial potential, expression of phosphatidylserine, parameters of direct and lateral light scattering, and DNA fragmentation during spontaneous and induced apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes were studied by flow cytofluorometry. Dexamethasone and Ca2+ ionophore A23187 served as inductors of apoptosis. A decrease in the mitochondrial potential is an early sign of spontaneous and induced apoptosis. Phosphatidylserine expression on the outer plasma membrane occurred later and inversely depended on the mitochondrial potential. Our results indicate that the involvement of mitochondria in spontaneous and induced apoptosis accompanied by a decrease in the mitochondrial potential is an early and key event of programmed lymphocyte death. The decrease in the mitochondrial potential of lymphocytes induced degradation of their nuclei (DNA fragmentation) and promoted elimination of apoptotic cells (phosphatidylserine expression).

[Transferase contents in lymph and blood in fever reaction].

The aim of the present investigation was the study of the content of alanine, asparagine-transaminases, gamma-glutamyl transferase and their isoenzymes, as well as leucine aminotransferase in the lymph of thoracic duct, hepatic and intestinal lymph and peripheral blood in dynamics of fever reaction of various duration in the experiments on rabbits. Irrespective of its duration, the fever was followed by a significant activation of the enzymes in the body fluids. However, in many-day fever reaction, a rise of enzymes level in the lymph was more prolonged than that in the blood. The above studies make it possible to assume that the released enzymes in fever reaction are primarily resorbed by lymphatic capillaries and their activity indices in the blood serum are largely evidenced by the transport function of the lymphatic system.

[Morpho-functional changes in the lymph nodes during fever reaction].

Lymph nodes (mesenteric, popliteal, cervical) of rabbits in fever reaction of different duration have been studied in our work. As a whole morpho-functional changes in lymph nodes in fever reaction indicate the increase of their functional activity: hyperplasia of lymphatic substance with the growth of lymphocytes number and slightly differentiated lymphoid cells in follicles and paracortical zone, hyperplasia of pulposus bands, the signs of macrophagal reaction and plasmatization of lymph nodes are to be observed and all these create prerequisites for the increase of tensity of cellular and humoral immunity. Simultaneously the signs of destruction of cellular elements--lymphocytolysis in the porta tract and the growth of number of PAS-positive cells in the parenchyma of the nodes take place.

[Phosphatase activity in the lymph during a fever reaction].

Activity of acid and alkaline phosphatases, as well as isoenzymes of alkaline phosphatase in the lymph of the thoracic lymphatic duct, hepatic lymph and the peripheral blood have been studied on rabbits in the dynamics of the fever reaction of different duration. The fever reaction was followed by enzyme activity increase in all the body biologic fluids. However the degree of increase of their activity in the lymph was greater that that in the blood. Our data indicate that in the transport of phosphatases released from the tissues in the common circulation the essential role is played by the lymphatic system, the resorption and transport functions of which significantly characterise the dynamics and the level of their changes in the blood in fever reaction.
