Effect of Paclitaxel on the Hemostatic Potential of the Blood in the Experiment.

The duration and severity of prothrombotic effects of the maximum tolerated dose of paclitaxel (40 mg/kg) were evaluated in intact outbred mice. Hemostasis was assessed before and on days 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, and 30 after a single injection of paclitaxel using standard coagulation tests (activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, fibrinogen concentration, and antithrombin III) and a "global" method, low-frequency piezothromboelastography. A pronounced prothrombotic effect of paclitaxel was revealed starting from the first day postinjection that consisted in intensification of fibrinogenesis up to the 7th day in parallel with activation of the anticoagulant mechanisms. On days 7-30 after paclitaxel administration, decompensation of its anticoagulant activity due to paclitaxel-induced damage to the endothelium was observed with the formation of a procoagulant status of the hemostatic potential of the blood. A single administration of the maximum tolerated dose of paclitaxel forms a powerful thrombogenic stimulus during the first week and provides a long-term/trace procoagulant shift in the hemostasis system (days 10-30).

[The positional isomers of palmitic and oleic triglycerides, lipolysis, conformation of apoB-100, formation of apoE/B-100 ligand and absorption of lipoproteins of very low density by insulin-dependent cells under action of statins.]

The study was carried out to trace back quantitative alterations of positional isomers, oleic and palmitic triglycerides and individual fatty acids in blood serum. After two weeks of taking of Simvastatin (40, 80 mg), analysis of blood serum established decreasing of content of Рhosphatidylcholine and more reliable decreasing of amount of non-etherized alcohol cholesterol. No alterations of content of particular fatty acids were detected. In apoB-100, Рhosphatidylcholine and non-etherized alcohol cholesterol form polar mono-layer; it covers mass of oleic and palmitic triglycerides that was bound by apoB-100 in oleic and palmitic lipoproteins of very low density disturbing bio-availability of substrate (oleic and palmitic triglycerides) for post-heparin lipase. This very pool of non-etherized alcohol cholesterol is inhibited by statins activating lipolysis in oleic and palmitic lipoproteins of very low density. In blood was detected amount of palmitic positional isomersin oleic and palmitic triglycerides (palmitoyl-palmitoyl-palmitate and palmitol-palmitoyl-oleate) and oleic positional isomers (oleyl-oleyl-palmitate and oleyl-oleyl-oleate). The significant difference was marked in content of positional isomers both of oleyl-oleyl-oleate and oleyl-oleyl-palmitate; their content is less in blood of patients of experimental group as compared with healthy people. In case of treatment with Simvastatin (40 mg) the level of palmitic positional isomers and palmitol-palmitoyloleate is decreased. In case of treatment with Simvastatin (80 mg) significant decreasing of positional isomers-palmitolpalmitoyl-oleate and oleyl-oleyl-palmitate as compared with data before treatment. The detection of content of positional isomers triglycerides permits: a) to characterize disorders of metabolism of palmitic fatty acid, oleic fatty acid, oleic and palmitic triglycerides and oleic and palmitic lipoproteins of very low density of the same name; b) to form individual diet therapy; c) to obtain objective information concerning compliance of prescribed recommendations b y patient. The basis of primary prevention of atherosclerosis and atheromatosis is in decreasing up to physiological level in food the content of longchained saturated fatty acids mainly palmitic acid.

[THE SPIRIT CHOLESTEROL, BIOLOGICA L ROLE AT STAGES OF PHYLOGENESIS, MECHANISMS OF INHIBITION OF SYNTHESIS OF STEROL BY STATINS, FACTORS OF PHARMACOGENOMICS AND DIAGNOSTIC SIGNIFICANCE OF CHOLESTEROL OF LIPOPROTEINS OF LOW DENSITY].

The hypolipidemic effect of statins is realized by inhibition of synthesis of local pool of cholesterol spirit in endoplasmic net of hepatocytes. The cholesterol spirit covers all hydrophobic medium of triglycerides with polar mono layer of phosphatidylcholines and cholesterol spirit prior to secretion of lipoproteins of very low density into hydrophilic medium. The lesser mono layer between lipase enzyme and triglycerides substrate contains of cholesterol spirit the higher are the parameters of hydrolysis of palmitic and oleic lipoproteins of very low density. The sequence of effect of statins is as follows: blocking of synthesis in hepatocytes and decreasing of content of unesterified cholesterol spirit in blood plasma; activation of hydrolysis of triglycerides in palmitic and oleic lipoproteins of very low density; formation of ligand lipoproteins of very low density and their absorption by cells by force of apoB-100 endocytosis; decreasing in blood of content of polyenoic fatty acids, equimolar esterified by cholesterol spirit, polyethers of cholesterol spirit and decreasing of level of cholesterol spirit-lipoproteins of very low density. There is no way to eliminate aphysiological effect of disordered biological function of trophology (nutrition) on metabolism of fatty acids in population by means of pharmaceuticals intake. It is necessary to eliminate aphysiological effect of environment. To decrease rate of diseases of cardiovascular system one has to decrease in food content of saturated fatty acids and in the first instance palmitic saturated fatty acid, trans-form fatty acid, palmitoleic fatty acids up to physiological values and increase to the same degree the content of polyenoic fatty acids. The saturated fatty acids block absorption of polyenoic fatty acids by cells. The atherosclerosis is a deficiency of polyenoic fatty acids under surplus of palmitic saturated fatty acid.

Apoptosis of leukocytes as a marker of neutrophil-endotheliocyte interaction in coronary heart disease.

We studied the mechanism of interaction of peripheral blood neutrophils with endothelial cells (expression of cell adhesion molecules and production of NO) and the role of neutrophil apoptosis in the development of endothelial dysfunction. The effects of mitochondrial dysfunction of neutrophils on the development of apoptosis of these cells after their interaction with endothelial cells were analyzed.
