[Main issues of psychoneuroimmunology: Part II]
[Article in Polish]
Mausch K.
Samodzielnej Pracowni Psychologii i Socjologii Lekarskiej Pomorskiej AM.
In psychoneuroimmunology links between psyche and the body are examined in the context of neurotransmitter, hormone and immuno-transmitter interaction. This allows for construction of models which show empirically verifiable links between the nervous, endocrine and immune systems. The earlier concepts of stress by Cannon and Selye focused on the physical and mental strain influence on the action of the nervous and endocrine systems. Ursin, Olff and Schedlowski introduced the concept of stress extended by an immune system reaction, which is an integral part of the alarm phase. A change in the amount of NK cells and their stress-influenced activity is an important defense mechanism of the body. It constitutes a component of the preparation for defense against potential pathogen penetration.

[L-arginine in the lacrimal fluid of patients with diabetic retinopathy and the possible role of nitric oxide in the pathogenesis of retinal ischemia]
[Article in Russian]
Arkhipova MM, Neroev VV, Baratova LA, Lysenko VS.
The concentrations of 23 free amino acids and some other components (ammonium, urea, ethanolamine) were measured by liquid chromatography in the lacrimal fluid of 40 patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) (15 with the preproliferative stage and 25 with proliferative stage) and 15 normal subjects. The mean level of L-arginine in DR patients was 3.5-5 times decreased in comparison with the control (1.2 +/- 0.4 vs. 6.1 +/- 1.5%, p < 0.005). The level of ornithine inversely correlated with the level of L-arginine. The mean level of ornithine in DR patients was increased twofold (12.3 +/- 1.0 vs 6.8 +/- 1.0% in the control, p < 0.005). The mean concentrations of other amino acids virtually did not change. Decreased level of L-arginine in the lacrimal fluid of DR patients may be indicative of increased utilization of this amino acid in retinal ischemia, which, according to the modern concept of DR pathogenesis, can be caused by activation of nitric oxide production. Measurement of L-arginine in the lacrimal fluid can serve as a simple noninvasive and reliable method for early diagnosis of ischemic changes in the retina.

[The role of the osmotic pressure of the blood in the pathogenesis of diabetic changes in the retina]
[Article in Russian]
Zapuskalov IV, Filippova SV, Shilova OG, Krivosheina OI.
Based on the regularities of circulation mechanics, the authors hypothesize the role of osmotic pressure in the development of diabetic changes in the retina. A mathematical model of tissue fluid movement based on this hypothesis shows that transmural pressure in choriocapillaries is higher than in exchange vessels of the retina, and therefore unidirectional fluid flow from choriocapillaries to these vessels develops. A sharp increase in glucose concentration is paralleled by an increase in osmotic pressure, which, in turn, creates a negative hydraulic pressure in retinal tissue and leads to overstretching of exchange vessels and appearance of microaneurysms. One of pathogenetically based therapeutic effects of laser coagulation in diabetic retinopathy is creation of "fenestrae" in the retinal pigmented epithelium, facilitating tissue fluid movement.

[A clinico-pathogenetic classification of tuberculosis of the eye]
[Article in Russian]
Ustinova EI.
Clinical pathogenetic classification is based on the results of many-year observation of a large group of patients in whom the tuberculous etiology of ocular disease was confirmed by a universal approach based on reliable informative diagnostic criteria. Three pathogenetic and 4 clinical forms of ocular tuberculosis were distinguished. The classification for the first time includes ocular involvement in tuberculosis of the central nervous system and tuberculosis of defense system of the eye. Tuberculous diseases of the cornea, sclera, and retinal vessels are presented in combination with uveitis of this or that localization, because they are secondary towards uveitis. The classification includes 4 sections. The diagnosis based on this classification reflects the clinical features of disease and the time course of the process. The classification is diagnostically and therapeutically oriented. It suggests a rational choice of etiological diagnosis and therapy, which is determined by the pathogenetic and clinical forms of ocular tuberculosis.

Possible role of cytotoxic T cells in acute liver injury in hepatitis C virus cDNA transgenic mice mediated by Cre/loxP system.

A line of hepatitis C virus (HCV) transgenic mice was established previously that was mediated by Cre/loxP system using HCV cDNA, including core, E1, E2 and NS2 genes. Intravenous infection of a recombinant adenovirus that expresses Cre DNA recombinase (AxCANCre) induced HCV structural protein expression in the liver of transgenic mice. HCV core protein production and transgene recombination in the mouse liver were serially evaluated after AxCANCre infusion. Core proteins were expressed efficiently and transgene was almost completely recombined in the liver of mice after 3 days and then the levels of both core protein production and transgene recombination decreased continuously for 28 days. However, 30.6% of the transgene recombination remained at 28 days and only 2.7% of core production remained at 28 days after infection. Compared with nontransgenic controls, the serum alanine aminotransferase levels in transgenic mice were significantly higher 10, 14, and 21 days after adenovirus infection. Histological scoring also indicated severe pathological changes in the liver of transgenic mice after adenovirus infection. AxCANCre infusion increased CD8+ lymphocyte infiltration into the liver of transgenic mice compared with that of non-transgenic controls. Furthermore, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) isolated from transgenic mice during liver injury were specific for the HCV proteins. These results suggest that HCV structural proteins expressed in the liver of transgenic mice enhanced liver injury. HCV-specific CTLs may be to enhance hepatitis. Thus, the present HCV transgenic mouse model provides a useful model of liver injury due to HCV, and the host immune response may play a pivotal role(s) in the pathogenesis of HCV.

Beautiful, dense hair is a dream for many people.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been understood.
A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been developed.
However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution that
can address all hair loss cases. Another problem is that most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation
surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to cope with hair loss problems.
Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially for age-related hair thinning and hair loss
for a large group of people who take it as suggested. Although personal experiences and anecdotal evidences
indicate that it works, we still do not understand the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to
help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical
analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. R & D costs dearly, and no one would
afford to research complex herbal ingredients, which are often not patentable at all because they are
made by mother nature.
DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands.
DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones)
or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
