Роль убиквитин-протеасомной системы в развитии плоскоклеточного рака полости рта

 The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) controls the activity, subcellular localization, and stability of many cellular proteins that affect cellular homeostasis by regulating multiple signaling cascades. The activity of this system is associated with the emergence and progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma, since specific proteolysis of most intracellular proteins involved in the pathogenesis of cancer is implemented by this system.The review article presents data on the characteristics of proteasomes and the process of substrate protein ubiquitination. The role of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in the pathogenesis of oral squamous cell carcinoma is shown, and the prospects of its use in precancerous diseases are described. The  literature search was carried out in the search engines Medline, eLIBRARY, Scopus, The Cochrane Library, and RSCI.  Убиквитин-протеасомная система контролирует активность, субклеточную локализацию и стабильность множества клеточных белков, которые влияют на клеточный гомеостаз посредством регуляции сигнальных каскадов.

Global maps of soil temperature

Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation canopies and near the ground surface, where critical ecosystem functions occur and most terrestrial species reside. Here, we provide global maps of soil temperature and bioclimatic variables at a 1-km2 resolution for 0\u20135 and 5\u201315 cm soil depth. These maps were created by calculating the difference (i.e. offset) between in situ soil temperature measurements, based on time series from over 1200 1-km2 pixels (summarized from 8519 unique temperature sensors) across all the world's major terrestrial biomes, and coarse-grained air temperature estimates from ERA5-Land (an atmospheric reanalysis by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). We show that mean annual soil temperature differs markedly from the corresponding gridded air temperature, by up to 10\ub0C (mean = 3.0 \ub1 2.1\ub0C), with substantial variation across biomes and seasons. Over the year, soils in cold and/or dry biomes are substantially warmer (+3.6 \ub1 2.3\ub0C) than gridded air temperature, whereas soils in warm and humid environments are on average slightly cooler ( 120.7 \ub1 2.3\ub0C). The observed substantial and biome-specific offsets emphasize that the projected impacts of climate and climate change on near-surface biodiversity and ecosystem functioning are inaccurately assessed when air rather than soil temperature is used, especially in cold environments. The global soil-related bioclimatic variables provided here are an important step forward for any application in ecology and related disciplines. Nevertheless, we highlight the need to fill remaining geographic gaps by collecting more in situ measurements of microclimate conditions to further enhance the spatiotemporal resolution of global soil temperature products for ecological applications

Here, we provide global maps of soil temperature and bioclimatic variables at a 1-km <sup>2</sup> resolution for 0-5 and 5-15 cm soil depth. These maps were created by calculating the difference (i.e. offset) between in situ soil temperature measurements, based on time series from over 1200 1-km <sup>2</sup> pixels (summarized from 8519 unique temperature sensors) across all the world's major terrestrial biomes, and coarse-grained air temperature estimates from ERA5-Land (an atmospheric reanalysis by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). We show that mean annual soil temperature differs markedly from the corresponding gridded air temperature, by up to 10°C (mean = 3.0 ± 2.1°C), with substantial variation across biomes and seasons. Over the year, soils in cold and/or dry biomes are substantially warmer (+3.6 ± 2.3°C) than gridded air temperature, whereas soils in warm and humid environments are on average slightly cooler (-0.7 ± 2.3°C).

Комплаентность и персистентность у пациентов с первичной открытоугольной глаукомой с позиции офтальмолога

PURPOSE: Determination of key factors of non-compliance for treatment and duration of recommendations accomplishment in accordance with doctor’s instructions and associated with time from therapy start to its discontinuation (persistence) in patients with glaucoma by assessment of personal opinion of ophthalmologists with different amount of experience.METHODS: 509 queries of medical professionals (631 doctors) from Russia and other 6 countries were included into the study. All doctors’ queries were grouped according to the duration of their work experience, place of work — depending on medical care type (ambulatory or inpatient) and by hospital propriety type (state or private). Data collection method: online survey. The significance of the 32 selected compliance factors was assessed by the ball system from 10 (maximum significant factor) to 1 (minimally significant factor). Analysis program Statistica 8.0 (StatSoft Inc., USA).RESULTS: Data analysis allowed determining medium terms for continued application of recommended therapy depending on patients group. Persistency of low-compliant patients was considered a period of continued following of recommendations from 15 up to 27.5 days per year, high-compliant — 180-300 days per year. Doctors’ opinion depended on time in professional and place of work. Study results allowed recognizing percent’s of “low-compliant”, “mediumcompliant” and “high-compliant” patients. Following patients compliance factors were assessed as well: factors directly associated with treatment, factors, associated with patient’s condition, factors of behavioral compliance and social compliance. Moreover, trial results displayed difference in opinion of medical specialists depending on the duration of their work experience, place of work and clinic type.CONCLUSION: Study groups divided by the amount of healthcare experience showed no difference in patients compliance apprehension. Percentage of low-compliant patients was 20 [10; 30] %; medium-compliant — 30 [20; 45] and high-compliant — 50 [30; 60]% in all groups. A longer duration of healthcare experience corresponded with higher persistence requirements. Low-compliant patients followed recommendations for up to 20 days per year [7; 60]; medium-compliant — for 90 [20; 200] and lowcompliant — 200 [40; 350]. Primary factors for non-compliancy in all groups were defined as follows: absence of motivation; complicated instillation regimen influencing daily activities; absence of contact with attending physician; low information level concerning condition; age; side effects; medication price; laziness; family history of glaucoma. Factors of behavioral compliance were considered the most important in all groups — 75%.ЦЕЛЬ. Определение ключевых факторов нарушения приверженности к лечению (комплаентности) и продолжительности в выполнении назначений по времени от начала терапии до ее прекращения (персистентности) у пациентов с глаукомой при изучении субъективного мнения врачей-офтальмологов с разным стажем и местом работы.МЕТОДЫ. В исследование были включены 509 анкет от 631 врача из России и 6 стран СНГ. Все анкеты врачей были разделены на группы в зависимости от их стажа и места работы, вида собственности лечебно-профилактического учреждения (государственной или частной) и формы оказания медицинской помощи (амбулаторной или стационарной). Метод сбора данных: онлайн-анкетирование. Значимость 32 отобранных факторов комплаентности оценивалась по балльной системе от 10 (максимально значимого фактора) до 1 (минимально значимого фактора). Программа анализа: Statistica 8.0 (StatSoft Inc., США).РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ. Анализ данных позволил получить средние сроки непрерывного соблюдения назначенной терапии в зависимости от принадлежности участников анкетирования к той или иной группе. Персистентность (период непрерывного соблюдения рекомендаций) низкокомплаентных пациентов составила от 15 до 27,5 дней в году, высококомплаентных — от 180 до 300 дней в году. Мнение врачей зависело от стажа и места их работы. Выявлены доли «низкокомплаентных», «среднекомплаентных» и «высококомплаентных» пациентов. Проанализированы конкретные факторы приверженности пациентов к соблюдению рекомендаций, связанные непосредственно с лечением, состоянием пациента, особенности поведенческой и социальной комплаентности. Результаты исследования показали различия мнений практикующих врачей в зависимости от стажа, места работы и вида лечебного учреждения.ЗАКЛЮЧЕНИЕ. В анализируемых группах врачей, разделенных по стажу работы, разница в представлениях о комплаентности пациентов не выявлена. Доля «низкокомплаентных» пациентов составляет в среднем 20% [10; 30], «среднекомплаентных» — 30% [20; 45] и «высококомплаентных» — 50% [30; 60]. Чем больше стаж, тем более высокие требования предъявляются врачами к соблюдению рекомендаций. Предполагается, что «низкокомплаентные» пациенты соблюдают рекомендации в течение 20 [7; 60] дней в году, «среднекомплаентные» — 90 [20; 200], «высококомплаентные» — 200 [40; 350]. Ведущими факторами нарушения комплаентности во всех группах являются: отсутствие мотивации, сложный режим инстилляций, отсутствие контакта с врачом, низкая степень информированности о заболевании, возраст, забывчивость, наличие побочных эффектов, стоимость, лень, семейный анамнез глаукомы. На первом месте во всех группах отмечают факторы поведенческой комплаентности — до 75%

Прогнозирование продолжительности сроков заболевания и возраста пациентов с разными стадиями первичной открытоугольной глаукомы

PURPOSE: To find out the expected duration of the disease and age of patients with different primary open-angle glaucoma changes. METHODS: The study protocol included data from 120 patients (50 males (41.7%), 70 females (58.3%)); 189 eyes; 102 right eyes; 87 left eyes). The first study group (28 patients, 44 eyes) comprised patients with suspected glaucoma. The second group (53 patients, 84 eyes) consisted of patients with early glaucoma changes. The third group (21 patients, 33 eyes) included patients with advanced glaucoma changes. The forth group (18 patients, 28 eyes) comprised patients with terminal glaucoma. The mean age of the patients was 61.6 (58.4; 66.9) years at the time of diagnosis and 66.9 (63.4; 72.8) years at the endpoint visit in 2013. In all cases the diagnosis was made according to the differential diagnosis system and was proved by special diagnostic techniques. The database included data from 3 qualified examinations as well as tonometry and static automatic perimetry results. RESULTS: The expected mean age of the patients at the moment of total vision loss was 75.1 years. The period, during which patients developed blindness, was limited to 6.1 years. Mean age of the patients at the time of possible glaucoma development was 59.58 (56.14; 64.36) years. The disease itself could have developed within -3.24 (-5.38; -1.2) years prior to the diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Glaucoma diagnostic research should be focused on the age group of 55-60 years. The degree of IOP-lowering in patients with advanced glaucoma changes does not correspond with the Russian glaucoma society recommendations, which determines further progression of the disease.ЦЕЛЬ. Определить предполагаемую продолжительность сроков течения заболевания и возраст пациентов с разными стадиями первичной открытоугольной глаукомы. методы. в протокол исследования были включены данные 120 человек (50 (41,7%) мужчин, 70 (58,3%) женщин; всего 189 глаз, из них 102 правых и 87 левых). В 1-ю группу (28 человек, 44 глаза) вошли пациенты с диагнозом подозрение на глаукому. Пациенты с начальной стадией глаукомы составили 2-ю группу (53 человека, 84 глаза), с развитой стадией заболевания - 3-ю (21 пациент, 33 глаза), с далекозашедшей стадией болезни - 4-ю группу (18 пациентов, 28 глаз). Средний возраст всех пациентов на момент проведения первичной диагностики составил 61,6 (58,4; 66,9) года и 66,9 (63,4; 72,8) года на момент проведения финального исследования в 2013 г. Во всех случаях диагноз был установлен в соответствии с системой дифференциальной диагностики заболеваний и подтвержден специальными методами исследования. В базу данных были включены результаты трех квалифицированных заключений, с результатами тонометрии и статической периметрии. РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ. Средний предполагаемый возраст пациентов на момент наступления слепоты составил 75,1 года, а период, когда такие изменения наступят, был ограничен сроком в 6,1 года. Возраст пациента при вероятном возникновении глаукомы составил 59,58 (56,14; 64,36) года, а само заболевание могло начаться за 3,24 (-5,38; -1,2) года до момента постановки диагноза на практике. ЗАКЛЮЧЕНИЕ. Профилактические осмотры населения с целью выявления глаукомы должны быть в первую очередь ориентированы на возрастную группу от 55 до 60 лет. Степень понижения уровня внутриглазного давления у пациентов с продвинутыми стадиями заболевания не соответствует рекомендациям Российского глаукомного общества для этих категорий пациентов, что определяет дальнейшее прогрессирование заболевания

August to July Precipitation from Tree Rings in the Forest-Steppe Zone of Central Siberia (Russia)

The goal of this research report is to describe annual precipitation reconstruction from Pinus sylvestris trees on three sites in the Abakan region, located in the Minusinsk Depression, at the confluence of the Yenisei and Abakan Rivers, Russia. The study was performed during the 4th annual international summer course "Tree Rings, Climate, Natural Resources and Human Interaction" held in Abakan, 5-19 August 2013. The reconstruction, for the 12-month total precipitation ending in July of the growth year, is based on a reliable and replicable statistical relationship between precipitation and tree-ring growth, and shows climate variability on both interannual and interdecadal time scales. The regional tree-ring chronology accounts for 56% of the variance of observed annual precipitation in a linear regression model, with the strongest monthly precipitation signal concentrated in May and June of the current growing season. Composite 500 mb height-anomaly maps suggest that the tree-ring data from this site, supplemented by other regional tree-ring data, could yield information on long-term atmospheric circulation variability over the study area and surrounding region. © 2015 The Tree-Ring Society.This item is part of the Tree-Ring Research (formerly Tree-Ring Bulletin) archive.
