The Multifaceted Role of Heme in Cancer: Heme, an iron-containing porphyrin, is of vital importance for cells due to its involvement in several biological processes, including oxygen transport, energy production and drug metabolism. Besides these vital functions, heme also bears toxic properties and, therefore, the amount of heme inside the cells must be tightly regulated. Similarly, heme intake from dietary sources is strictly controlled to meet body requirements. The multifaceted nature of heme...

Changes in the Frequency of Rhythmic Excitation of Retzius Cells during Thermal Stimulation of Leech Skin: Thermal stimulation of various parts of the skin in Hirudo medicinalis increases the frequency of spontaneous rhythmic excitation of Retzius neurons in leech ganglia. It was shown that the frequency of spontaneous rhythmic excitation of Retzius cells in the segmental ganglion increases only in response to thermal stimulation and returns to initial values upon cooling. This effect was also detected...

Assessment of Biocompatibility and Local Action of Biomaterial for Production of an Envelope for Implanted Heart Electronic Devices: We studied a biomaterial for a new domestic product, a biological envelope for implantation of cardiac electronic devices. The product is designed to prevent complications after pacemaker implantation and to facilitate the reimplantation procedure. By chemical and biological processing of raw materials (submucosa of porcine small intestine), an acellular extracellular...

System of Markers Based on the Methylation of a Group of Proapoptotic Genes in Combination with MicroRNA in the Diagnosis of Breast Cancer: Systems of markers for the diagnosis of breast cancer based on DNA methylation of a group of suppressor protein-coding genes, hypermethylated microRNA genes, and their combinations were compiled. On a representative sample of 70 paired breast cancer specimens (tumor/normal), MS-PCR analysis revealed a significant increase in the methylation frequency of 5 protein-coding...

Real-Time Recording and Processing of Spike Electrical Activity of the Small Intestine in Experiments on Rats: Real-time recording technique and mathematical processing of the spike electrical activity in the small intestine were developed for chronic experiments on rats. Open-source software was employed to digitize electromyograms and to process them in a real-time mode with a fourth-order nonlinear differential energy operator. This method improved identification of spike electrical activity in...

Synthesis and Metabolism of Nitric Oxide (NO) in Chicken Embryos and in the Blood of Adult Chicken: In chicken embryos, nitric oxide (NO) is accumulated in the pool of NO donors: S-nitrosothiols, nitrosyl-iron complexes, high-molecular-weight nitro-compounds. Oxidation of NO to nitrate occurs with different intensity in the embryos of different chicken breeds. In some embryos, NO donors accumulate almost without oxidation. Stable concentration of NO donors and nitrate in the blood of adult chicken...

A rare case of a pediatric white epidermoid cyst: AbstractWhite epidermoid cysts are a rare entity that present with atypical signal characteristics on MRI in comparison to typical epidermoid cysts. This can mislead a practitioner when trying to formulate a differential diagnosis based on imaging. We present the case of 15-year-old girl who presented with a pontine-medullar junction mass. This mass did not follow typical signal characteristics for known lesions. The mass was ultimately found to be...
