[Oxygen effect in the therapy of lung cancer].

Nine lung cancer patients were subjected preoperatively to radiotherapy under hypoxia with inhaling of GHM-10 (gas hypoxic mixture). The patients were followed up during 7--12 months. The results obtained evidence the rationality of further studies in this direction, that is of special importance due to introducing of reconstructive--plastic operations on the trachea and bronchi into oncological practice. Thus, there will be a possibility to preserve, in some cases, a porton of the lung. Since the functional status of the lung after surgical and radiation treatment is of primary importance for the duration of patients' survival, the lung tissue protection from side-effects of radiation in irradiating lung tumors may offer good perspectives.

[Causes of death in lymphogranulomatosis].

The results of 97 autopsy cases of lymphogranulomatosis showed the causes of death to be either progression of the disease (78 cases), complications of treatment (12) or other diseases (7). The immediate causes of death in the progression of the disease were toxicity (29%), pulmonary insufficiency (22%), pulmonary-cardial insufficiency (12%), hepatic insufficiency (21%), peritonitis (3.4%), sepsis (5.8%), uremia (3.4%), posthemorrhagic anemia (1.7%), cerebral edema (1.7%). The immediate causes of death in complications of therapy were secondary infection (5 cases), posthemorrhagic anemia (3), pulmonary insufficiency (3), cerebral edema (1). In 7 observations death was not due to lymphogranulomatosis: in 2 cases it was caused by disseminated hematogenic tuberculosis, in 2 pneumonia (with cured lymphogranulomatosis, in 1 myocardial infarction, in 1 uremia (aterosclerotic nephrosclerosis) and 1 patient died accidentally.

[Ultrastructure of the DNP fibrils and of the interchromatin granules in isolated nuclei of the rat liver].

The structural organization of DNP fibrils and interchromatin granules of isolated rat hepatocyte nuclei has been studied in various conditions of chromatin solubilization. When observed either in nuclei fixed in situ or in a solution containing 20 mM TEA and 1 mM MgCl2, a DNP fibril consists of globular structures 20--25 nm in diameter. In the nuclei fixed in a magnesium-free solution (20 mM TA), nucleosome structures are revealed in DNP. Condensation of chromatin results from interaction between 20 nm globular fibrils, whereas the complete dispersion of chromatin is a consequence of its conversion into the nucleosomal form. In the conditions of both DNP structuralization and dispersion, the nuclei are revealed to contain zones of interchromatin granules connected by thin fibrils. It is assumed that the different compactness of these granular-fibrillar complexes and of the regions of condensed chromatin may be used for their separation and fractionation.

[Energy demand of track-and-field weight throwers].

In sportsmen-throwers the matinal exchange of rest in conditions of sport gatherings is found to be fairly high. The energy spent in a single training comprised 723--910 kcal in women and 829--975 kcal in men. In these conditions the diurnal energy spent by throwers, was 4000--4500 kcal in women and 4500--5000 kcal in men. The energy spent for the rest exchange and physical trainings comprised 70--80 per cent of the entire energy spent by the throwers in 24 hours. The caloric value of the diurnal ration was in the range of 4000--5000 kcal.

[Mitotic conditions in different variants of lymphogranulomatosis].

The features of mitotic regimen of lymphogranuloma were established in examinations of 50 involved lymph nodes in patients with lymphogranulomatosis: increased mitotic activity and the number of pathological mitoses from lymphoid prevalence to lymphoid exhaust. In all the types of metaphase was the predominant stage of mitosis. Significant differences were found in the mitotic regimen and various subtypes of nodular sclerosis.

[Methylation of newly synthesized DNA in mouse fibroblast culture].

After a 10 min- or more prolonged incubation of transformed mouse fibroblasts (L.-cells) with [3H]-thymidine or [3H-methyl]-methionine and a subsequent centrifugation of cell lysates in an alkaline sucrose gradient the DNA radioactivity is detected in long (28, 33 and 45S) and short (5, 13 and 18S) fragments. An increase in cell concentration in the cultural layer results in inhibition of 5S fragments linkage rather than in inhibition of their synthesis. The blocking of the Okazaki fragment linkage may be regarded as one of the inhibitory molecular mechanisms of cell depletion. Both in the case of normal and suppressed (by 99%) replication by arabofuranosylcytosine [3H]-thymidine and [3H-5-methyl] cytosine are detected in the Okazaki fragments (5S) as well as in some discrete lower molecular weight fractions (lesser than 5S) of newly synthesized DNA. Thus, replicative methylation of DNA in the fibroblasts occurs in the replicative fork during DNA synthesis and the functioning DNA methylase is an indispensable component of the replicative complex. The methylation of Okazaki fragments is non-chaotic and has a specificity other than that of total DNA. This may be due to the multiplicity and different specificity of nuclear DNA-methylases. Thus, there exist in animal cells replicative and post-replicative methylation of DNA, which may differ in the nature of substrates and enzymes, in specificity of recognizable sequences and in their functional significanse.

[Genome structure in higher plants. Reassociation kinetics of DNA from Vicia faba and Vicia sativa].

The work been concerned with a study of the kinetics of reassociation of total DNA and that of the fraction of unique sequences in plants from the Vicia family, i. e. Vicia faba and Vicia sativa. The size of the genome was determined by the kinetics of reassociation of the DNA of the fraction of unique sequences and the amount of DNA per nucleus was determined cytophotometrically. It has been shown that the size of the genome expressed in C(0)t units and the size expressed in gramms are not the same which testifies to the absence of true unique genes in the genome of the species studied. The analysis of the possible methodical errors was carried out. On the basis of the data obtained a suggestion was made of a model of chromosomes organization including 12 units of polynemization for Vicia faba and 4 units for Vicia sativa.
