The synthetic mesh is widely used for treatment of hernias. We conducted a comparative study of the morphological pattern of inflammation, the cellular composition of tissues and dynamics of scar formation in mice when using implants "Esfil" and "Unifleks" under influence of single and double injection of cultured fibroblast and without such injection to the region of stents location. A more pronounced inflammatory reaction during the study period of investigation was observed in the case of "Esfil". In the late period of the study, a higher percentage of fibroblasts was observed in the case of the prosthesis "Unifleks" compared to the prosthesis "Esfil". Injection of cultured fibroblasts modifies the curve of the dynamics of the inflammatory process by making it smoother in the case of both prostheses. So, more preferred is the use of prostheses "Unifleks". 相似文献

A novel approach based on the approximation of tissue structure by the Voronoi diagram has been elaborated to study cell-to-cell signaling in a tissue mediated by gap junctions. This methodology was applied for the analysis of Ca2+ signaling in the airway epithelium, where adjacent cells were taken to be coupled by gap junctions whose permeability depended on Ca2+ concentration in their cytoplasm. The number of junctional channels connecting a given pair of cells was postulated to be directly proportional to the length of the boundary between them. In a certain range of parameters, a modeled cell generate intracellular Ca2+ oscillations upon the stimulation with the purinergic agonist ATP, and the Ca2+ signal propagated through the tissue due to a Ca2+ rise in adjacent connected cells. The influence of variable sensitivity of cells to ATP on Ca2+ signaling in the tissue was also examined. The model also showed that a mechanical disturbance of a single airway epithelial cell resulted in a prolonged increase in Ca2+ concentration in its cytoplasm, which entailed the spreading of a Ca2+ wave along the tissue. 相似文献

The expression profile of the ZEB1, ZEB2, VIM, CDH1, SFRP2, FOXQ1, TNC, MACC1, PLS3, CFTR, FLNA, MUC2, TFF3, and RARRES3 genes, as well as the mutational status of the KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, and PIK3CA genes, were investigated in 40 patients with colorectal cancer and liver metastases. A comparative analysis of changes in gene expression in primary tumor cells and liver metastases was performed. Statistically significant differences were found between the expression levels of the ZEB2 (p = 0.004), VIM (p < 0.001), FLNA (p = 0.04), and MUC2 (p < 0.001) genes. It was demonstrated that the overall frequency of mutations of the KRAS gene was 18/40 (45%) and the PIK3CA gene was 9/40 (23%). Mutations in the NRAS and BRAF genes were not found. The concordance between the primary tumor and metastases in the liver by mutation status was 100%. 相似文献

Aflatoxins are polyketide-derived secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus spp. The toxic effects of aflatoxins have adverse
consequences for human health and agricultural economics. The aflR gene, a regulatory gene for aflatoxin biosynthesis, encodes a
protein containing a zinc-finger DNA-binding motif. AFLR-Protein three-dimensional model was generated using Robetta server.
The modeled AFLR-Protein was further optimization and validation using Rampage. In the simulations, we monitored the
backbone atoms and the C-α-helix of the modeled protein. The low RMSD and the simulation time indicate that, as expected, the
3D structural model of AFLR-protein represents a stable folding conformation. This study paves the way for generating computer
molecular models for proteins whose crystal structures are not available and which would aid in detailed molecular mechanism of
inhibition of aflatoxin. 相似文献

Visualization of molecular structures aids in the understanding of structural and functional roles of biological macromolecules.
Macromolecular transport between the cell nucleus and cytoplasm is facilitated by the nuclear pore complex (NPC). The ring
structure of the NPC is large and contains several distinct proteins (nucleoporins) which function as a selective gate for the passage
of certain molecules into and out of the nucleus. In this note we demonstrate the utility of a python code that allows direct
mapping of the physiochemical properties of the constituent nucleoporins on the scaffold of the yeast NPC׳s cytoplasmic view. We
expect this tool to be useful for researchers to visualize the NPC based on their physiochemical properties and how it alters when
specific mutations are introduced in one or more of the nucleoporins. The code developed using Python is available freely from the
authors. 相似文献

Among the advantages of the single-molecule approach when used to study biomolecular structural dynamics and interaction is its ability to distinguish between and independently observe minor subpopulations. In a single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and alternating laser excitation diffusion experiment, the various populations are apparent in the resultant histograms. However, because histograms are calculated based on the per-burst mean FRET and stoichiometry ratio and not on the internal photon distribution, much of the acquired information is lost, thereby reducing the capabilities of the method. Here we suggest what to our knowledge is a novel statistical analysis tool that significantly enhances these capabilities, and we use it to identify and isolate static and dynamic subpopulations. Based on a kernel density estimator and a proper photon distribution analysis, for each individual burst, we calculate scores that reflect properties of interest. Specifically, we determine the FRET efficiency and brightness ratio distributions and use them to reveal 1), the underlying structure of a two-state DNA-hairpin and a DNA hairpin that is bound to DNA origami; 2), a minor doubly labeled dsDNA subpopulation concealed in a larger singly labeled dsDNA; and 3), functioning DNA origami motors concealed within a larger subpopulation of defective motors. Altogether, these findings demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach. The method was developed and tested using simulations, its rationality is described, and a computer algorithm is provided. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine the collagen-stimulating effect of ascorbic acid on the growth of the Parieten ProGrip implanted synthetic hernia prosthesis. The characteristics of collagenogenesis in the anterior abdominal wall were assayed with polarized microscopy. We suggest a new way to stimulate a reparation process with ascorbic acid that will help to optimize forming functionally matured structures of connective tissue of the anterior abdominal wall surrounding endoprosthesis. The results of our investigation show that vitamin C has a positive effect on the collagen synthesis in the periprosthetic capsule for any type of endoprosthesis. This was proven by the statistically significant increase in the ratio of collagen I and III types with vitamin C to the animal diet. 相似文献

Background: The incidence of gastric cancer (GC) is extremely high in Russia and eastern Siberia, where information on the epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori infection is fragmentary. Aims: To assess the prevalence of both H. pylori infection (including CagA status) and intestinal metaplasia (IM) in Russian and eastern Siberian populations carrying a different risk of GC. Materials and Methods: A sample of 2129 consecutive patients was considered, including 689 Europoids and 1440 Mongoloids (493 Evenks, 533 Khakass people, and 414 Tuvans), who all underwent serum sampling and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. H. pylori status was established (ELISA, urease test, and histology), and IgG anti‐CagA antibodies were assessed (ELISA) in H. pylori‐positive cases. At least 3 biopsy samples per patient were considered, and IM was scored as present versus absent. The prevalence of H. pylori, CagA+ve status, and IM was compared with the incidence of GC according to the regional cancer registries. Results: The prevalence of H. pylori was similar for the Europoids and Mongoloids (93.6 vs 94.3%). The prevalence of CagA+ve infection was as follows: Europoids 61.2%, Evenks 36.4%, Khakass 44.0%, Tuvans 60.0% (p1vs2 < .001; p1vs3 < .001; p2vs4 < .001; p3vs4 < .001). The prevalence of IM was as follows: Europoids 10.7%, Evenks 5.1%, Khakass 9.8%, and Tuvans 23.4% (p1vs2 = .001; p1vs4 < .001; p2vs4 < .001; p3vs4 < .001). The incidence of GC (per 100,000 population/year) was as follows: Europoids 33.2; Evenks 18.2; Khakass 20.2; Tuvans 50.7 (p1vs2 = 0.04; p1vs3 = .05; p2vs4 < .001; p3vs4 < .001). Conclusion: H. pylori infection is consistently high in Russian and eastern Siberian populations; ethnicities with similar prevalence of CagA+ve status had different prevalence of IM and incidence of GC. As expected, IM prevalence correlated with the incidence of GC. Host‐related and/or environmental factors may explain discrepancies between H. pylori status, the prevalence of IM, and the incidence of GC. 相似文献
