In recent years there has been an increase in the frequency of multiple pregnancies and the associated perinatal losses. It is a result of multiple pregnancy in ART refers to a high-risk gestation, at which premature births occur in 2 times more often than in singleton pregnancies. The objective: to determine the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the pathogenesis of premature labor in multiple pregnancy, as a result of assisted reproductive technology. Patients and methods. to determine the pro-inflammatory cytokines that all pregnant with bagtopliddyam held immunosorbent assay, defined concentrations of interleukin (IL) in serum and cervical mucus. Results. The analysis of the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, IL-8) in the test environment, found high concentrations in the surveyed women with multiple pregnancy, due to the use of ART, compared with spontaneous multiple and singleton pregnancy. Increased concentration of proinflammatory cytokines in patients with multiple pregnancy by ART is associated with their synthesis at the system level, it stimulated foci of inflammation in the female genitals and extragenital localization. This correlates with the clinical data and statistical analysis, patients with multiple pregnancy as a result of ART had weighed infectious-inflammatory history. Conclusion. The study showed that elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines in the systemic and local level in patients with multiple pregnancy due to ART, typical for women with miscarriage, because of the physiological course of pregnancy characterized by the predominance of anti-inflammatory cytokines that prevent rejection of the fetus as a foreign factor. Based on the data obtained proved the role of systemic inflammatory factors in the genesis of preterm labor in women with a multiple pregnancy, as a result of assisted reproductive technology. Key words: multiple pregnancy, assisted reproductive technology, premature birth, interleukine-1, interleukine-8.

Background: Metabolic pathways perturbations lead to skeletal muscular atrophy in the cachexia and sarcopenia due to increased catabolism. Pro-inflammatory cytokines induce the catabolic pathways that impair the muscle integrity and function. Hence, this review primarily concentrates on the effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines in regulation of skeletal muscle metabolism. Objective: This review will discuss the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in skeletal muscles during muscle wasting conditions. Moreover, the coordination among the pro-inflammatory cytokines and their regulated molecular signaling pathways which increase the protein degradation will be discussed. Results: During normal conditions, pro-inflammatory cytokines are required to balance anabolism and catabolism and to maintain normal myogenesis process. However, during muscle wasting their enhanced expression leads to marked destructive metabolism in the skeletal muscles. Proinflammatory cytokines primarily exert their effects by increasing the expression of calpains and E3 ligases as well as of Nf-κB, required for protein breakdown and local inflammation. Proinflammatory cytokines also locally suppress the IGF-1and insulin functions, hence increase the FoxO activation and decrease the Akt function, the central point of carbohydrates lipid and protein metabolism. Conclusion: Current advancements have revealed that the muscle mass loss during skeletal muscular atrophy is multifactorial. Despite great efforts, not even a single FDA approved drug is available in the market. It indicates the well-organized coordination among the pro-inflammatory cytokines that need to be further understood and explored.

Toxic Liver Damage

High occurence of liver diseases (toxic, viral hepatitis, liver failure, cirrhosis) requires urgent search of new methods for management of the hepatobiliary diseases. At the present time, the role of immune mechanisms in pathogenesis of diffuse toxic liver damage is not finally clarified. The model of toxic hepatitis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is widely known, but this approach allows us to perform complex evaluation and develop the methods for adequate correction of liver disorders in experimental model, which is not always feasible in clinical setting.To design a model of diffuse toxic liver damage, the CCl4 oil solution was used, having been administered intraperitoneally to experimental animals, at a single dose of 50 mg per 100 g body mass. Aiming for correction of toxic liver damage, the injections of aminophthalhydrazide (APH) to experimental animals were carried out intramuscularly at the dose of 2 mg/kg over the terms of experiment. An evaluation of the role of sinusoidal cells (SC) and cytokine production at the local and systemic level were carried out in the model of toxic liver damage caused by CCl4 and its correction by APH treatment. In the course of developing diffuse toxic liver damage induced by CCl4, the production of proinflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-1α and IL-18 was enhanced at the local level, whereas an increase in TNFα concentration was observed in blood plasma. Following aminophthalhydrazide (APH) administration, the concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines (TNFα and IL-18) decreased at system level, along with locally decreased levels of IL-6 and IFNγ.Changes in the functional state of immunocompetent cells, which include sinusoidal cells (SC), have a significant impact on the development of pathological processes in the liver. The results of our study presume that, over the early periods of toxic impact upon liver tissue, the number of SCs increases both due to influx of blood monocytes and mature macrophages from the peritoneal cavity that enter the injury site directly via mesothelial layer. The SCs provide phagocytosis of damaged hepatocytes and contribute to resolution of the inflammatory process.Modulation of the macrophage activities by APH contributes to increased amounts of SCs at the early stages, and stabilizes their quantities after 2 weeks of APH injections. Change in the numbers of liver SCs during toxic damage affects the production of cytokines. A direct effect of APH upon the SCs may change the production of regulatory factors and compensate the insufficient rate of recovery processes after the toxic damage.

AbstractCD47 is a self-marker expressed on the surface of RBCs and work to prevent the process of phagocytosis. SIRPα is the ligand of CD47 that is expressed on the surface of phagocytic cells, such as macrophages, to control the removal of dead/diseased cells. This study aimed to examine the expression of CD47 on RBCs and SIRPα on PBMC cells in SCD patients and the apoptosis of SCD RBCs. We also measured the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in SCD patients and correlated it with the cell surface marker expression of CD47 and SIRPα to determine whether CD47 and/or SIRPα played a role in promoting the pro-inflammatory phenotype in SCD. Whole blood samples were drawn from SCD patients, and healthy control and PBMC were isolated and stained with SIRPα. Change in CD47, apoptosis by annexin V marker, and pro-inflammatory cytokines were measured and correlation among these variants was determined. The expression of CD47 was significantly decreased and the apoptosis was increased in RBCs of SCD patients. A higher level of pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6 and IL-1β, was found in SCD patients and IL-1β was found to be inversely correlated with SIRPα expression. Our data showed that CD47 of erythrocytes of SCD samples is reduced and that the apoptosis is increased in those patients. Based on the role of CD47, we suggest that increased apoptosis in SCD would be impacted by the reduced level of CD47. An inverse relationship was found between SIRPα marker on PBMC and the increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in SCD.

Background:Interest in highly specialized tissue cytokines contributed to the discovery of new biologically active molecules. Nesfatin-1 (NF) - discovered in 2006 as an anorexigenic factor. NF-1 is believed to be involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis by regulating appetite and water intake. The role of NF-1 in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases is poorly understood. Recently, studies have found a relationship between an increased level of NF-1 and inflammatory markers in various pathologies.Objectives:Study of the level of nesfatin-1 in the blood serum of healthy people, determination of the correlation between the level of NF-1 with the severity of clinical symptoms and classic markers of inflammation in patients with RA.Methods:120 persons were examined: 90 patients with RA and 30 healthy people. All patients underwent a complete clinical and laboratory examination. Plasma NF-1 levels were determined using commercial test systems (RaiBiotech, cat # EIA-NESF) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Patients with various forms of RA were comparable in age to the group of healthy individuals. Statistical processing of clinical examination data was carried out using the “STATISTICA 10.0 for Windows” software package. Quantitative data were processed statistically using the parametric Student’s t-test, qualitative data using the non-parametric chi-square test. The significance of differences between groups was determined using analysis of variance. The results were considered statistically significant at p <0.05.Results:The average level of NF-1 in blood serum in healthy individuals was 31.79 ± 3.21 ng / ml (M ± σ). The level of normal NF-1 values in healthy individuals, defined as M ± 2σ, ranged from 25.3 to 37.83 ng / ml. There was no significant difference in the levels of circulating NF-1 and BMI in healthy individuals and patients with RA (p> 0.05). The inverse relationship of a lower level of NF-1 with an increase in BMI was not significant.Group 1 (66 patients with RA) with increased serum NF-1 levels (> 37.83 ng / ml), and group 2 (44 patients) with normal values (<37.83 ng / ml). A high level of NF-1 was characteristic for patients with high activity according to DAS28, RF seropositive, ACCP-positive, with extra-articular manifestations, who had been ill for 10 years or more. A reliable relationship between the level of NF-1 in the blood serum and laboratory parameters of RA activity - ESR, CRP, was shown, and secondary synovitis was more common. Our data show a direct correlation between the NF-1 level of the pro-inflammatory markers of RA.Conclusion:The positive correlation between the level of NF-1 and classical markers of inflammation, such as CRP and ESR, confirms the involvement of NF-1 in the pathophysiology of inflammation in RA. This is also evidenced by the correlation of a high level of NF-1 in the blood serum with a more severe clinical picture of RA. It is known that NF-1 can promote the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1a (MIP-1a) in the chondrocytes of RA patients.It is necessary to further study the role of NF-1 in the pathogenesis of systemic inflammatory reactions and the possibility of targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines, the possibility of regulating the level of NF-1 by drugs.References:[1]Kvlividze T.Z., Zavodovsky B.V., Akhverdyan Yu.R.

And Function

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorδ(PPARδ, also known as PPARβ) has ubiquitous distribution and extensive biological functions. The reproductive function of PPARδwas first revealed in the uterus at the implantation site. Since then, PPARδand its ligand have been discovered in all reproductive tissues, including the gametes and the preimplantation embryos. PPARδin preimplantation embryos is normally activated by oviduct-derived PPARδligand. PPARδactivation is associated with an increase in embryonic cell proliferation and a decrease in programmed cell death (apoptosis). On the other hand, the role of PPARδand its ligand in gamete formation and function is less well understood. This review will summarize the reproductive functions of PPARδand project its potential applications in assisted reproductive technology.
