ПОЛУЧЕНИЕ БЕСКЛЕТОЧНОГО МАТРИКСА ХРЯЩА ТРАХЕИ ДЛЯ ТКАНЕИНЖЕНЕРНЫХ КОНСТРУКЦИЙ
Background: Tissue-engineered trachea transplantation remains the last chance for a variety of patients suffering from severe cicatricial tracheal stenosis. Despite the series of carried studies, the final solution hasn’t been found. Creating a functionally complete hyaline cartilage graft in vitro still presents a fundamental problem, and a number of researchers consider it as the key to a successful tracheal tissue-engineering.Aims: The study aimed to investigate the capability of detergent complex and DNAse I for human tracheal cartilage decellularization in short-time exposition for acellular scaffold obtaining.Materials and methods: Isolated from cadaveric trachea human native cartilage was used for decellularization by ensimatic-detergent complex including Triton X-100, DMSO, and DNAse I. The scaffold was characterised by histological examinations, analysis of the residual DNA content, and cell metabolic activity colorimetric test with culture in the scaffold fragments.Results: The obtained scaffolds presented highly porous structure mostly composed of collagen and glycosaminoglycans with an insignificant residual DNA level, absence of citotoxicity, and capability for cell proliferative activity stimulation.Conclusions: Thus, the study provides a new short-time technology for hyaline cartilage decellularization in order to achieve acellular scaffolds in step with the tissue engineering requirements.Обоснование. Трансплантация тканеинженерной трахеи остается единственной надеждой для множества пациентов, страдающих тяжелыми рубцовыми стенотическими поражениями трахеи. Несмотря на существенное число выполненных исследований, окончательного решения проблемы пока не найдено. Вопрос о возможности создания функционально полноценной гиалиновой хрящевой ткани в трансплантате in vitro остается открытым, и ряд исследователей видят в нем ключ к успешному решению современных задач тканевой инженерии трахеи.Цель исследования ― оценить способность комбинации детергентов и ДНКазы I к децеллюляризации хрящевой ткани трахеи человека при кратковременном воздействии для получения бесклеточного матрикса-носителя.Методы. В исследовании использовался нативный хрящ человека, выделяемый из трахеи трупного донора и децеллюляризируемый комплексом детергентов и энзимов, включающих Тритон X-100, DMSO и ДНКазу I. Свойства получаемого матрикса-носителя оценивались в ходе гистологических исследований, анализа содержания остаточной ДНК в препарате и колориметрического теста метаболической активности клеток при культивировании на фрагментах носителя.Результаты. Полученные матриксы-носители обладали пористой структурой, преимущественно представленной коллагеном и гликозаминогликанами, демонстрировали низкий уровень остаточной ДНК, лишены цитотоксичности и способны стимулировать пролиферативную клеточную активность.Заключение. Результаты данного исследования позволили предложить новый метод непродолжительной децеллюляризации гиалиновой хрящевой ткани с получением клеточных носителей, отвечающих основным требованиям тканевой инженерии
A Solvable Regime of Disorder and Interactions in Ballistic Nanostructures, Part I: Consequences for Coulomb Blockade
We provide a framework for analyzing the problem of interacting electrons in
a ballistic quantum dot with chaotic boundary conditions within an energy
(the Thouless energy) of the Fermi energy. Within this window we show that the
interactions can be characterized by Landau Fermi liquid parameters. When ,
the dimensionless conductance of the dot, is large, we find that the disordered
interacting problem can be solved in a saddle-point approximation which becomes
exact as (as in a large-N theory). The infinite theory shows a
transition to a strong-coupling phase characterized by the same order parameter
as in the Pomeranchuk transition in clean systems (a spontaneous
interaction-induced Fermi surface distortion), but smeared and pinned by
disorder. At finite , the two phases and critical point evolve into three
regimes in the plane -- weak- and strong-coupling regimes separated
by crossover lines from a quantum-critical regime controlled by the quantum
critical point. In the strong-coupling and quantum-critical regions, the
quasiparticle acquires a width of the same order as the level spacing
within a few 's of the Fermi energy due to coupling to collective
excitations. In the strong coupling regime if is odd, the dot will (if
isolated) cross over from the orthogonal to unitary ensemble for an
exponentially small external flux, or will (if strongly coupled to leads) break
time-reversal symmetry spontaneously.Comment: 33 pages, 14 figures. Very minor changes. We have clarified that we
are treating charge-channel instabilities in spinful systems, leaving
spin-channel instabilities for future work. No substantive results are

GW190814: gravitational waves from the coalescence of a 23 solar mass black hole with a 2.6 solar mass compact object
We report the observation of a compact binary coalescence involving a 22.2–24.3 Me black hole and a compact object with a mass of 2.50–2.67 Me (all measurements quoted at the 90% credible level). The gravitational-wave signal, GW190814, was observed during LIGO’s and Virgo’s third observing run on 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC and has a signal-to-noise ratio of 25 in the three-detector network. The source was localized to 18.5 deg2 at a distance of - + 241 45
41 Mpc; no electromagnetic counterpart has been confirmed to date. The source has the most unequal mass ratio yet measured with gravitational waves, - + 0.112 0.009 0.008, and its secondary component is either the lightest black hole or the heaviest neutron star ever discovered in a double compact-object system. The
dimensionless spin of the primary black hole is tightly constrained to �0.07. Tests of general relativity reveal no measurable deviations from the theory, and its prediction of higher-multipole emission is confirmed at high confidence. We estimate a merger rate density of 1–23 Gpc−3 yr−1 for the new class of binary coalescence sources
that GW190814 represents. Astrophysical models predict that binaries with mass ratios similar to this event can form through several channels, but are unlikely to have formed in globular clusters. However, the combination of mass ratio, component masses, and the inferred merger rate for this event challenges all current models of the formation and mass distribution of compact-object binaries
Constraints on the cosmic expansion history from GWTC–3
We use 47 gravitational wave sources from the Third LIGO–Virgo–Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector Gravitational Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC–3) to estimate the Hubble parameter H(z), including its current value, the Hubble constant H0. Each gravitational wave (GW) signal provides the luminosity distance to the source, and we estimate the corresponding redshift using two methods: the redshifted masses and a galaxy catalog. Using the binary black hole (BBH) redshifted masses, we simultaneously infer the source mass distribution and H(z). The source mass distribution displays a peak around 34 M⊙, followed by a drop-off. Assuming this mass scale does not evolve with the redshift results in a H(z) measurement, yielding (68% credible interval) when combined with the H0 measurement from GW170817 and its electromagnetic counterpart. This represents an improvement of 17% with respect to the H0 estimate from GWTC–1. The second method associates each GW event with its probable host galaxy in the catalog GLADE+, statistically marginalizing over the redshifts of each event's potential hosts. Assuming a fixed BBH population, we estimate a value of with the galaxy catalog method, an improvement of 42% with respect to our GWTC–1 result and 20% with respect to recent H0 studies using GWTC–2 events. However, we show that this result is strongly impacted by assumptions about the BBH source mass distribution; the only event which is not strongly impacted by such assumptions (and is thus informative about H0) is the well-localized event GW190814
Anatomical bases of brain revascularization: choosing an extra-intracranial bypass option
Surgical brain revascularization is an important treatment for acute or chronic ischemia, intracranial aneurysms and skull base tu-mors. Individual anatomy of brain vessels should be clearly understood for this procedure. Variants of collateral cerebral blood flow in patients with cerebrovascular diseases depend on individual characteristics of circle of Willis and reserve mechanisms of collateral circulation. These anatomical variations require careful preoperative planning to choose the optimal revascularization option. © 2021, Media Sphera Publishing Group. All rights reserved
COVID-19. Liver damage - visualization features and possible causes
Item. To evaluate the features of CT imaging of the liver and the possible causes of pathological changes in COVID-19. Materials and methods. An analysis of the literature and our own data on the features of CT imaging of the liver in combination with biochemical analyzes in patients with COVID-19 was performed. The main possible causes of changes in the liver, as well as symptoms with CT, are examined. Results. The main target of the new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is the respiratory system. But among patients with COVID-19, along with damage to the central nervous system, myocardium, and intestines, cases of liver damage or dysfunction have been reported. This is expressed in an increase in biochemical markers of liver damage, as well as in a diffuse decrease in its density during CT, which is usually observed in the acute stage of the disease. © 2020 Medical Visualization.

Bioengineered Bile Duct: the project resume and state of the art in 2018
Aim. Development of the physiologically relevant tissue-engineered graft for repair of bile duct injures (Dyuzheva et al., 2016). <br><br>Conclusions. Designed scaffold showed no cytotoxicity, both BM-MSCs and cholangiocytes migrated into the depth of fibrous material. The constructs was biodegradable in various model mediums: deionized water, phosphate buffer, bile, full culture medium. The next step is pre-clinical trials on rabbits and minipigs for assessment of implantation safety and efficacy. We suppose that this tubular multilayered tissue-engineered construct will be capable to integration in native tissues after implantation and may be used to injured bile duct reparation
