[Preoperative care of microcirculatory vessels in patients with lower limb arteriosclerosis obliterans].

The paper analyses diagnosis and treatment outcomes for 20 men aged from 55 to 76 with lower limb arteriosclerosis obliterans. Based on exhaustive laboratory and instrumental diagnostic data the authors conclude that 10-days course of Vazaprostan (20 mkg per day) for patients with IIb stage of chronic lower limb arterial insufficiency yields not only improvement in tissue metabolism, but a reduction of peripheral vascular resistance as well. Thus such therapy can be used for preoperative care before reconstructive vascular interventions in order to reduce the risk of implant thrombosis in early postoperative period.

[The nature of macrophage functional heterogeneity exemplified by Fc receptors].

It is known that functional activity of macrophages (Mph), adhesion and phagocytosis, depends on the local concentration of Fc receptors (Fc gamma R) on the cell surface. Fc gamma R may have a random distribution on cell membrane or form clusters of different sizes. This process depends on the local activity of microfilaments that, in its turn, reflects peculiarities of macrophage microenvironments. One may conceive that the number of opsonized erythrocytes (OE) subject to adhesion (engulfing) to separate Mph depends on the amount of active centres on the cell surface and their activity. The structures, such as Fc gamma R clusters, phagosomes and others, in whose formation numerous components of Mph (cell skeleton, microvesicles, signal receptive system and others) are involved, are arbitrarily called the structural functional units (SFU). Thus, we used two parameters: the average number of SFU per Mph in population, and the average activity of SFU instead of a generally accepted number of OE per Mph. The number of SFU per Mph can be 0, 1, 2 etc., and one SFU may bind (engulf) 0, 1, 2 etc. EA. For the assessment of the parameters, the approximation of experimental histograms by type-A Neyman's distribution was used. To verify the adequacy of the model, observations of OE adhesion and phagocytosis in different conditions were made. The results show that the parameters of the model fit well the biological processes in this system.

[Fibrinolytic therapy in thrombosis of the main arteries].

Fibrinolytic therapy (FLT) was applied in 79 patients, aged from 37 to 76 years, suffering from thromboses of the main arteries of the pelvis and lower extremities. The duration of the disease ranged from one day to 8 months. FLT was conducted with streptokinase preparations: streptodekase, avelysin, and celiase. FLT lasted 24 hours on average (from 7 hours to 3 days depending on the duration of the disease). The main blood flow in the affected arterial segment was completely restored in 49 (62%) patients. In 30 (38%) cases attempts to restore the blood flow failed. The affected extremity was amputated in 4 patients. Severe hemorrhagic complications occurred in 4%., small subcutaneous hematomas in 14.4%, fragmentation of thrombi with the development of distal embolism in 7.6% of cases, anaphylactic shock developed in one patient. Four patients died.

[Regional thrombolytic therapy of thrombosis of arteries of the pelvis and lower extremities].

Regional thrombolysis was performed in 62 patients with thrombosis of the aorta and arteries of the pelvis and lower extremities. The thrombolytics used were avelysin (20 patients) and celiase (42 patients). Complete lysis of the thrombi was recorded in 49 cases. After successful thrombolytic therapy balloon angioplasty of the revealed stenoses was carried out in 39 patients. After thrombolysis was completed 15 patients underwent various reconstructive operations which failed to produce an effect in 4 patients and the extremity was amputated. The complications of thrombolysis included hematomas at the site of catheterization of the arteries in 5 patients, distal embolism in 7, and an allergic reaction in one patient. The authors appraise the dependence of thrombolysis efficacy on the level, extent, and duration of the thrombotic occlusion.

[Thrombolytic therapy of acute thrombosis of the major arteries in the legs with streptokinase preparations].

Thrombolytic therapy was used in treatment of 40 patients with acute thromboses of the aorta, major arteries of the pelvis and lower extremities. Complete lysis of the thrombus was achieved in 21 patients, partial lysis in 13 patients, 6 patients had no effect. The authors consider that the effectiveness of the treatment of acute thrombosis of major arteries is dependent on duration of the disease, character, level and distance of the occlusion, degree of ischemia of the extremity. It is stressed that the method of choice is the selective administration of streptokinase drugs (Awelysin, Celiase).

[Immunomodulating activity of RNA mononucleotides].

The immunological action of RNA mononucleotides was studied in animal experiments. The most pronounced activation of macrophagal glycolysis urea cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, lysosomal hydrolases was induced by uridine 5'-monophosphate (5'-UMP) and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-GMP); 5'-GMP also induced the maximum increase of the expression of FC gamma receptors. 5'-UMP ensured cell activation comparable with the total action of all mononucleotides. 5'-UMP and 5'-GMP, used in combination, produced the highest stimulating effect on macrophages, and the addition of low-active adenosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-AMP) to active 5'-UMP did not decrease the stimulating potency of the latter. The stimulating activity of sodium nucleinate exceeded that of all mononucleotides and their combinations. 5'-GMP and 5'-AMP induced the maximum activation of oxygen metabolism, evaluated by chemiluminescence, while 5'-UMP and cytidine 5'-monophosphate (5'CMP) proved to be inactive. The shift of the phosphate group to the third carbon atom or the production of the oligonucleotide 5'-UMP consisting of 5-15 nucleotides resulted in the appearance of the capacity for stimulating oxygen metabolism in macrophages. Their in vitro cultivation with 5'-GMP and 5'-AMP induced the maximum increase of cell spreading in comparison with other mononucleotides, while the maximum increase of phagocytosis was ensured only by 5'-UMP and 5'-GMP.2+ 5'-UMP and 5'-GMP enhanced nonospecific resistance to Salmonella typhi infection, and sodium nucleinate, to Pseudomonas pseudomallei and Pseudomonas mallei infections.

Redistribution of subpopulations of peritoneal macrophages with Fc gamma receptors under the effect of an immunomodulator.

The heterogeneity of resident peritoneal macrophages and peritoneal macrophages was studied in different periods following oral administration of sodium nucleinate according to their ability to bind and phagocytize sheep erythrocytes opsonized by means of specific rabbit IgG. Using a mathematical method developed earlier, it has been possible to demonstrate that resident peritoneal macrophages can be divided into two subpopulations--actively and poorly binding macrophages but, after activation by sodium nucleinate--into three subpopulations. Fractionation of the macrophages according to their ability to adhesion within a temperature gradient has shown that the same peaks are traced in the fractions as in the overall pool of cells, but in different quantitative ratios. It has also been demonstrated that phagocytic activity is reduced in macrophages capable of adhesion to plastic at lower temperatures.

[Analysis of macrophage heterogeneity by their phagocytic activity].

Heterogeneity of resident peritoneal macrophages was studied as revealed by their phagocytosis and binding of sheep erythrocytes opsonized by specific rabbit IgG. It has been shown that the macrophage heterogeneity is due to the presence of active and inactive cellular subpopulations. A mathematical model, based on the Poisson fitting of experimental histograms, was elaborated for the analysis of subpopulation composition of macrophage pool in the test of rosette formation and phagocytosis. The validity of the model was supported by physicochemical isolation of the macrophage subpopulation which was inactive in erythrocyte binding. The macrophage pool was separated into fractions by absorption--elution at different temperatures. Active and inactive macrophage subpopulations were found in all the fractions but in different ratios.

[Redistribution and activation of peritoneal macrophages with the peroral use of sodium nucleinate].

Three hours after the administration of sodium nucleinate the activation of glycolysis, the hexosomonophosphate shunt, the urea cycle (determined by the analysis of key enzymes), the expression of FC gamma-receptors and the decrease of oxidizing phosphorylation were noted in the peritoneal macrophages of mice. By 36 hours the gradual decrease of these characteristics occurred. After three oral administrations of the preparation immature macrophages with lower metabolic activity and increased oxidizing phosphorylation appeared in the exudate, while resident and activated cells practically disappeared. The immaturity of the cells was confirmed by their incubation in vitro. The changes in the cells, revealed in this investigation, are supposed to occur due to the redistribution of activated and intact macrophage populations in situ.

[Treatment of massive embolism of the pulmonary artery by a regional infusion of small doses of streptase with heparin].

Good results were obtained in the treatment of 10 patients with massive embolism of the pulmonary artery by regional infusions of small doses of streptase and heparin. The efficiency of the method was dependent on duration of the disease and character of the embolic occlusion of branches of the pulmonary artery, a prolonged activation of the patient's fibrinolysis contributing to lysis of emboli and to recovery of pulmonary blood flow in late follow-up terms.
