    The authors, in a study on 25 outbred Wistar white rats weighing 180-200 g, determined the effect of Lamidana (a product from sea brown algae) on the structural-functional continuum, that is, the correlation of the functional activity of the liver parenchyma and its structural characteristics. Methods. The detoxifying function of the liver was studied by the duration of sleep of animals due to the action of anesthesia - intraperitoneal administration of sodium thiopental (estimate the rate of metabolism of thiopental, carried out by the cytochrome-P-450-dependent monooxygenase system of hepatocytes). The structural and functional state of the liver parenchyma was assessed according to the study of histological preparations. The results of the studies showed that under the influence of the external application of "Lamidin" in the test rats, the liver1s detoxification function is enhanced (significantly significant decrease in the duration of sleep of animals). At the same time, structural signs of increased functional activity of hepatocytes are determined in the parenchyma. Conclusions. The authors believe that "Lamidan", due to the peculiarities of its chemical composition, enhances the metabolic and functional activity of hepatocytes but does not damage the correlative relationships between the structure and function of hepatocytes

    Much attention has been paid to the study of the numerous effects of chronic stress and the methods of their correction, but some questions remain unanswered. Goal. To investigate the effect of highly mineralized sodium chloride mineral water (brine) on the structural and functional state of rat kidneys with experimental distress. White female rats weighing 180 - 220 g were ranked into three groups: group I intact rats (control), group II rats with a distress model (duration 30 days); group III - rats with a model of distress, who from 15 to 30 day of experiment received a course of external procedures with rapes. In group II rats, the development of distress caused dystrophic changes in the kidneys, which led to inhibition of their urinary, ion-regulating and excretory functions. To correct the manifestations of distress rats received a course of external procedures with brine (5 procedures for 2 hours a day). Renal function restored: GFR exceeds group I data by 30%, resulting in complete recovery of the diuresis. Urea excretion is restored, and creatinine excretion exceeds the control level by 30% (p <0.001). The concentration of potassium ions is restored to the control level, their excretion is reduced by 20%, and the urinary excretion of sodium and chloride ions is increased by — 90% and 57%. Microscopically — the structure of nephrons and their components without visual changes, that is, does not differ from the first group of rats. Conclusions. Studies have shown that with transdermal administration of sodium chloride brine has a significant protective effect on the course of pathological changes in the function of the kidney of rats against the background of the development of distress

    Get PDF
    The article reviews the pathogenesis and the course of autism. Authors define autism as a psychosomatic disorder. A distinctive feature of mineral waters, as natural therapeutic factors of weak intensity, is their pronounced biological activity, the absence of side effects and the possibility of long-term use in combination with medication therapy. The paper presents data substantiating the possibility of using mineral water with an increased content of organic substances for the correction of the somatic component of autism (problems of the gastrointestinal tract, carbohydrate metabolism disorders, neurosis)

    In white rats in the setting of development of metabolic syndrome inhibition of the urinary and excretory functions of the kidney, with impaired water-ion balance (the kidneys excrete slightly hyperosmotic urine in a small amount) on the background of structural signs of dystrophies. Daily diuresis is reduced by 37% due to a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by 22% and an increase in the percentage of tubular reabsorption (p <0.001), excretion of creatinine, urea and chloride decreased by 22%, 15% and 56%. The excretion of potassium and sodium ions increases by 14% and 38%, respectively. The daily urine is greatly delayed. Two-week internal course administration of lowmineralized sodium chloride water has a positive effect on impaired renal function: the volume of diuresis is increased by 15% by accelerating GFR by 20% and restoring the value of tubular reabsorption. Creatinine excretion is increased by 20% and urea by 32%. The excretion of potassium and sodium ions is increased by 50% and 166%, respectively. Excretion of chloride ions and urine pH is fully restored. Microscopically determined residual manifestations of dystrophic processes in the kidneys, which against the background of the recovery of processes of urination and stimulation of ion-regulating and excretory functions of the kidneys, indicates the ability of the applied sodium chloride MW to correct the structural and functional disorders of the metabolic syndrome

    In the modern world, a lack of magnesium in the body is one of the most common deficient conditions in humans. Low levels of magnesium have been associated with a number of chronic diseases. This work is devoted to the study of the effect of the use of the balneological means "Magnesium oil" for the correction of the manifestations of experimentally induced magnesium deficiency. The experiment was conducted on 50 white female rats of the Wistar auto-breeding line which were divided into 3 equal groups: (1) control, (2) model of magnesium deficiency, (3) received "Magnesium oil". As a result of modeling the state of magnesium deficiency, significant changes are observed in the central nervous system, vegetative nervous system, and kidneys of animals. The use of balneological means "Magnesium oil" can significantly reduce the negative manifestations of magnesium deficiency

    The hyperplastic processes of the endometrium can arise not only against the background of excessive influence of estrogen, but also against the background of epigenetic damages that affect apoptosis, cell proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion, and DNA reparation. The aim of our study was to investigate and analyze the status of methylation of the promoter of SFRP2 gene in patients with hyperplastic processes of the endometrium. Materials and Methods: The study groups were the following: I — patients with endometrial hyperplasia (EH, n = 9); II — patients with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN, n = 10), III — control groups: 1) with endometrial cancer (EC, n = 4), and 2) healthy women (n = 4). Determination of promoter methylation of SFRP2 gene was carried out by the semiquantitative method of methylation-specific PCR assay. Results: The maximum level of methylation of SFRP2 gene promoter had been revealed in patients with EC — 42.80 ± 3.55% (р < 0.05). The patients of the I group had the lowest values of methylation of SFRP2 gene promoter — 10.66 ± 0.85%, while in patients of the II group this indicator was higher — 20.60 ± 0.95% (р < 0.05). In healthy women of the control group, methylation of SFRP2 gene promoter was detected in none of the samples. Conclusion: The content of the methylated SFRP2 gene in endometrial tissue of patients with hyperplastic processes higher than 20–25% allows relate these women to the risk group of EC development and dictates the need of intensive observation of such patients

    Relevance. Pharyngotonsillitis (PhT) is one of the most common recurrent upper respiratory tract diseases. Viruses are the most common cause of disease (Respiratory viruses, Enterov iruses, Herpesviruses), 30% are of bacterial origin. The most serious types of PhT are associated with group of β-hemolytic streptococcus (GAS) - Streptococcus pyogenes, in which antibiotic therapy is the first choice of therapy. In order to reduce the use of antibiotics, to prevent relapses of pharyngotonsillar episodes, a specific probiotic therapy was carried out using Streptococcuss alivarius K12 (SsK12). K12 (SsK12) is a probiotic strain that inhibits the growth of Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in vitro. Materials and methods. A study was conducted in 90 patients with recurrent pharyngotonsillitis (PhT) of bacterial origin, in whom Streptococcus pyogenes was isolated during bacteriolog ical examination. The course of treatment for patients of all groups was 30 days. Patients of group 1 (30 people) were treated with standard methods. In 30 patients of group 2 (30 people), in addition to standard therapy, the respiratory probiotic "Bactoblis" was used for a course of 30 days. In 30 patients of group 3, standard therapy was carried out with the use of the respiratory probiotic drug "Bactoblis" and additional sanitation of the lacunae of the palatine tonsils by vacuum extraction. As a result, in patients of groups 2 and 3, the frequency of PhT episodes significantly decreased, and the use of antibiotics decreased too. The most persistent effect of treatment was in patients of group 3 - the quality of treatment and prevention increased, the number of exacerbations decreased, the severity of clinical manifestations, and the drug load decreased. Individual intolerance to the components of the drug has not been identified. However, 6 months after the observation was started, the clinical and laboratory parameters of the main groups began to deteriorate, approaching those of the control group, and more stable therapeutic effect was observed in patients of group 3. Conclusions. The authors consider it expedient to perform tonsil sanitation twice a year, with further use of the drug "Bactoblis" in patients suffering from PhT. All human studies were conducted in compliance with the rules of the Helsinki Declaration of the World Medical Association "Ethical principles of medical research with human participation as an object of study". Informed consent was obtained from all participants

    Investigation of the influence of mineral water with increased content of organic on the development of metabolic syndrome in the experiment

    Background: The World Health Organization describes the metabolic syndrome (MS) as a "21st Century Pandemic." The pathogenesis of MS is complex and completely not studied, which justifies the importance of conducting research in this field, including experimental ones. Recently, in order to treat MS and its complications, along with drug therapy, non-pharmacological agents are used - natural therapeutic resources, which include mineral water (MW). MW are widely used in medical practice, due to the possibility of prolonged use, the combination of general non-specific effects on the processes of body sanogenesis in general and local pathogenetic mechanisms. Objective: To investigate the effect of MW with increased content of organic substances on its internal application to the metabolic rate of experimental animals with the MS. Materials and Methods: In the experiment, 40 white male rats weighing 230.0 – 250.0 g were used. For reproduction of the MS model, the animals were kept for 60 days in a standard diet, while the rats additionally received 30 grams of white bread crumbs per animal and consumed only 10% fructose solution in distilled water (as a drinking liquid). MW was injected into the esophagus of animals with a soft probe with olive, once a day for 12 consecutive days, at a dose of 1% of the body weight of the animal. Results: At day 60 of the experiment in rats with MS, blood glucose levels were increased by 3 mmol/l (p < 0,01), cholesterol and triglycerides by 32 and 154% (p < 0.01). Weight of animals increased by 14% (p < 0,01), and the use of a solution of fructose by 100%. Under the influence of MW, the weight of animals decreased by 8% (p < 0.01), the use of a solution of fructose by 50% (р < 0,01). The level of glucose decreased by 2 mmol/l, the cholesterol content was completely restored (p > 0,5), and the content of triglycerides remained elevated (p < 0,001). Conclusion: MS is a serious and long-lasting pathology, its development causes serious rearrangements in the body. Established corrective effect of MW with increased content of organic substances on separate parts of pathogenesis of MS, although not carried out in full, but is of a stable nature

    The paper presents data on the evaluation of the effectiveness of the use of natural chloride natrium mineralized water (MW) on the condition of the body of rats with alcohol intoxication (AI). Alcoholization lasted 30 days. From 15 to 30 days, the animals received MW. The use of MW in rats on the background of the development of AI had a positive effect on the state of metabolism: the processes of reamination, protein metabolism, energy-dependent transmembrane transport were restored, there was a decrease in the manifestations of hypoxic nature; the activity of endogenous detoxification processes increased and the state in the system of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant protection was restored. Microscopically, the liver parenchyma has improved (lipid and hyaline inclusions disappear, blood circulation increases, dystrophy is reduced ). The obtained data show that the use of sodium chloride MW has a protective effect on the structural and functional state and metabolic parameters of the rats liver
