RESUMO
Corynebacterium spp. are part of the human microbiome, but can cause the development of inflammatory diseases of various localization. Purpose - to evaluate the relationship between pathogenic properties and resistance to antimicrobial drugs (AMD) of Corynebacterium spp. from patients with inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract. Strains of Corynebacterium spp. isolated from patients with inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract (99 pcs.) and practically healthy individuals (33 pcs.). Isolates were identified by mass spectrometric method (MALDI-ToFMS), their adhesive and invasive activity on Hep-2 cells, cytopathic effect (CPE) in CHO-K1 cell culture, and resistance to antimicrobial drugs (AMD) were determined. Indicators of adhesion (3.65±0.679(CFU±m)x102/ml), invasion (1.72±0.230 (CFU±m)x102/ml), cytotoxicity (69.1±3.8% of dead CHO-K1 cells ) Corynebasterium spp. strains isolated from patients are higher (p≤0.05) than similar indicators in practically healthy people. 90.9% of isolates from patients had resistance to AMD, in most cases (57.6±4.9%) resistance to only one AMP was noted, less often to two (25.2±4.3%), three or more (8.08±2.7%). According to the results of correlation-regression analysis, pathogenic properties (adhesiveness, invasiveness, cytotoxicity) of Corynebacterium spp. strains isolated from patients are in close direct relationship with resistance to AMD. This indicates the importance of identifying strains of non-diphtheria corynebacteria resistant to AMDs, which, under the influence of developing resistance to AMDs, can increase their pathogenic potential, moving from commensalism to parasitism.

We studied the effect of single and repeated intranasal administration of antibodies to glutamate in experimental parkinsonian syndrome induced by injections of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) to C57BL/6J mice. Intranasal administration of anti-glutamate antibodies to mice in parallel with administration of MPTP over 10 days alleviated parkinsonian symptoms (oligokinesia and rigidity). In the serum of mice injected with antibodies to glutamate and/or MPTP, the titers of autoantibodies to glutamate and dopamine were higher than in control animals receiving saline. Single intranasal administration of anti-glutamate antibodies to mice with established parkinsonian syndrome did not affect the severity of parkinsonian symptoms.

AIM: Study the frequency of occurrence of antibiotics resistant strains of various species of Corynebacterium non diptheriae. MATERIALS AND METHODS: C.pseudodiphtheriticum, C.pseudo- tuberculosis, C.xerosis, C.amycolatum, C.striatum, C. ulcerans strains isolated from patients with pathologies of respiratory and urogenital tract, as well as individuals taking prophylaxis ex- amination were used. Sensitivity to antibacterial preparations was determined by the serial dilution method. RESULTS: The highest number of Coryniebacterium non diptheriae strains dis- played resistance to benzylpenicillin (54.8%) and lincomycin (50.7%), and lowest - to cefotaxime, cefazolin (6.8%) and vancomycin (13.7%). The highest number of antibiotics resistant strains were detected among members of C.pseudotuberculosis (100%), C.xerosis (96.0%) and C. pseudodiphtheriticum (81.0%) species. Polyresistant strains were detected most frequently among C.xerosis, C.amycolatum and C.striatum species. Strains of Corynebacterium non diptheriae most frequently displayed resistance to 1 or 2 antibacterial preparations (24.7%), less frequently - to 3 (20.5%); 4 (13.7%), 5 (4.1%) and 6 (1.4%) preparations. CONCLUSION: The amount of antibiotics resistant strains of Cdrynebacterium non diptheriae is large (89.0%) and non-similar in various species.

The purpose of study is to analyze sensitivity of various species Corynebacterium non diphtheriaе to antibacterial pharmaceuticals. The strains of C. non diphtheriae are separated from patients with pathology of respiratory and urogenital tract and also from individuals subjected to preventive examination. The sensitivity to antibacterial pharmaceuticals was determined using technique of serial dilution in fluid growth medium on the basis values of minimal inhibitory concentration (mg per l). It is established that the most efficient antibacterial pharmaceuticals in the case of strains C. non diphtheriae proved to be Vancomycin, Cefazolin and Cefotaxime in general. In case of such particular species as С. pseudodiphtheriticum -- Cefazolin, Cefotaxime and Gentamycin; С.pseudotuberculosis -- Vancomycin, Cefazolin, Cefotaxime and Gentamycin; C. xerosis -- Cefotaxime; С.striatum -- Cefazolin and и Rifampicin. The least efficiency was manifested for strains C. non diphtheriae by Benzylpenicillin and Lincomycin in general. In case of such particular species as С. pseudodiphtheriticum and С. pseudotuberculosis -- Lincomycin and Erythromycin; C. xerosis and С. striatum -- Benzylpenicillin, Lincomycin and Erythromycin. In case of various species of C. non diphtheriae Сephalosporins (Cefotaxime and Cefazolin) can be recommended as pharmaceuticals of choice and Gentamycin and Vancomycin as reserve pharmaceuticals.

The etiologic significance of isolated species C. riegelii in development of infection process in urogenital tract is demonstrated.
RESUMO
The proper identification of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae is complicated by their wide species variety, variable biochemical activity, large spectrum of diseases at which they are isolated and also by their presence in normal human micro-flora. The bacteriological method is a traditional basis for identification of corynebacteria though long (7-14 days), produces ambiguous results at cultivation of lipophilic and biochemically variable species. For final identification of nondescript species of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae it is recommended to carry out molecular genetic study using golden standard - sequencing on 16S pRNA (DNA), genes rpoB and PLD.In case of receiving of ambiguous responses of sequencing on 16S pRNA precise identification is achieved by sequencing of secondary gene rpoB that permits discovering unique differences in sequences of genomes in different species of corynebacteria (presence of genes of virulence; absence of cluster of genes responsible for production of number of saccharolytic enzymes; presence of genes coding synthesis of particular pigments, etc.). The mass-spectrometric analysis (MALDI-ToF-MS) applied for screening identification of Corynebacterium, is simple in implementation, though requires further development for more accurate differentiation of closely-related species. The poly-phase approach to identification of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae is needed which is to include chemotaxonomic, phenotypic, genotypic information required for reliable description of new clinically significant species of corynebacteria.

The comparative analysis was carried out concerning effectiveness of three techniques of identification of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae: bacteriological, molecular genetic (sequenation on 16SpRNA) andmass-spectrometric (MALDI-ToFMS). The analysis covered 49 strains of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae (C.pseudodiphheriticum, C.amycolatum, C.propinquum, C.falsenii) and 2 strains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolated under various pathology form urogenital tract and upper respiratory ways. The corinbacteria were identified using bacteriologic technique, sequenation on 16SpRNA and mass-spectrometric technique (MALDIToF MS). The full concordance of results of species' identification was marked in 26 (51%) of strains of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae at using three analysis techniques; in 43 (84.3%) strains--at comparison of bacteriologic technique with sequenation on 16S pRNA and in 29 (57%)--at mass-spectrometric analysis and sequenation on 16S pRNA. The bacteriologic technique is effective for identification of Corynebacterium diphtheriae. The precise establishment of species belonging of corynebacteria with variable biochemical characteristics the molecular genetic technique of analysis is to be applied. The mass-spectrometric technique (MALDI-ToF MS) requires further renewal of data bases for identifying larger spectrum of representatives of genus Corynebacterium.

AIM: Determine the ability of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae to induce phagocytosis and apoptosis of macrophages and evaluate regulatory effect of nuetrophilokines (NPK) induced by Corynebacterium non diphtheriae on these processes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The ability of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae, isolated from upper respiratory tract, skin and urogenital tract (UGT) were studied for the ability to induce phagocytosis and apoptosis of mice macrophages (MP; in vitro during staining by May-Grunwald with additional staining by Romanowsky-Giemsa) before and after the addition of NPK induced by Corynebacterium non diphtheriae. RESULTS: Phagocytic index (PI) was the same for all the Corynebacterium non diphtheriae species, phagocytic number (PN) and index of phagocytosis completion (IPC)--were minimal relative to corynebacteria isolated from UGT. All the studied corynebacteria species induced MP apoptosis; the most pronounced apoptogenic effect was detected in Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis isolated from UGT. NPK increased PN against corynebacteria isolated from the studied biotopes, IPC--only during studies of corynebacteria isolated from skin. The effect of NPK resulted in a reduction of apoptogenic effect for almost all the Corynebacterium non diphtheriae, regardless of the isolation location. CONCLUSION: A pronounced apoptogenic effect and insufficiency of phagocytosis processes induced by corynebacteria are the means of realization of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae pathogenic effect. NPK use is possible for immune correction of immune deficiency conditions developing against the background of diseases determined by Corynebacterium non diphtheriae.

The article deals with the results of study of sensitivity of strains of Corinebacterium non diphtheriae circulating in Rostov-on-Don and Rostov oblast to antibacterial preparations. The strains of Corinebacterium non diphtheriae isolated from urogenital tract (C. xerosis, C. pseudotuberculosis. C. amycolatum, C. striatum) are analyzed. The sample of 41 strains of C. non diphtheriae was used to detect the sensitivity to 9 antibacterial preparations. The technique of serial dilutions in liquid growth medium was applied. The range of variations (minimal suppressive concentration) of preparations as related to C. non diphtheriae made up 0.003-20.0 mkg/ ml. The results demonstrated that C. non diphtheriae are: highly sensitive to gentamycin, vancomycin and cefotaxime: sensitive to rifampicinum; and resistant to lincomicyn. In all analyzed strains of Corinebacterium non diphtheriae the greatest indicators of minimal suppressive concentration are detected in lincomicyn and at that the maximal indicator was for C. striatum and consisted 11.52 +/- 2.26 mkg/ml.

AIM: Characterize persistence properties and antibiotic sensitivity of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae circulating in Rostov-on-Don and Rostov Region. MATERIALS AND METHODS: DNase, anti-immunoglobulin activity, hemagglutinating activity, antagonistic properties and antibiotic sensitivity of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae strains isolated from patients with inflammatory diseases of urogenital tract, pregnant women and individuals undertaking prophylactic examination were studied. RESULTS: Lack of antagonistic interactions of C. non diphtheriae with members of opportunistic microorganisms, high anti-immunoglobulin activity against IgM and IgA, lack of hemagglutinating activity were established. Cefazolin and benzylpenicillin had the highest antibacterial activity against C. non diphtheriae, azithromycin and lincomycin--the lowest. CONCLUSION: Population level of C. non diphtheriae during urogenital tract disease diagnostics is necessary. Determination of their sensitivity to a wide specter of antibacterial preparations is reasonable for optimal selection of therapeutic agents.

The growth characteristics of an algo-bacterial community (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and bacterial satellites) were studied, as well as the mechanism and patterns of bacterial effect on algae. Four strains of predominant bacteria were isolated and partially characterized. They were assigned to the following taxa: Rhodococcus terrea, Micrococcus roseus, and Bacillus spp. A pure culture of the alga under study was obtained by plating serial dilutions on agarized media with ampicillin. Within the algo-bacterial association, the alga had a higher growth rate (0.76 day(-1)) and yield (60 microg chlorophyll/ml culture) than in pure cultures (0.4 day(-1) and 10 microg chlorophyll/ml culture, respectively). The viability of the algal cells within the association was retained longer than in pure culture. Among the isolated bacterial satellites, strains B1 and Y1, assigned to the species Rhodococcus terrae, had the highest stimulatory effect on algal growth. The culture liquid of bacteria incubated under the conditions not permitting growth stimulated algal growth; the culture liquid of actively growing bacteria had an opposite effect.

Two stress factors, hypoxia (microaerobic conditions) and a high salt concentration, if applied simultaneously to aerobic microorganisms, display an antagonistic mode of interaction. As a result, the NaCl level that is usually optimal for moderate halophiles (5-6%) becomes optimal for the growth of weak halophiles (Rhodococcus erythropolis and Shewanella sp. CN32); the halotolerant yeast Yarrowia lypolytica acquires halophilic properties (with a growth optimum at a NaCl concentration of 10%), and the growth rate of the extremely halophilic Halobacterium salinarum increases at supraoptimal salt concentrations (25-34%). This phenomenon is apparently due to multiple changes in metabolic reactions. In particular, high salt concentrations suppress respiration and the formation of enzymes (superoxide dismutase and catalase) that protect the cell from toxic oxygen species. Therefore, establishment of microaerobic conditions compensates for the loss of these protective mechanisms and enables cell growth at higher salt concentrations than under aerobic conditions. Of some importance can also be the increase in the intracellular concentrations of osmoprotectants caused by the suppression of their intracellular oxidation. The implications of this phenomenon for the ecophysiology of microorganisms (including oiloxidizing species) and for the classification of weak and moderate halophiles are discussed.

The capacity of microorganisms from different taxa to adapt to stress conditions with the help of extracellular factors exhibiting similar mechanisms of action was demonstrated. The action of adaptation factors synthesized by the enteric bacterium Escherichia coli, the soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis, and the yeast Candida utilis was characterized in biological tests. It was demonstrated that the factor of accelerated adaptation to new media (FAANM) and the growth-rate-reducing factor (factor X(II)), which decreases the rate of exponential culture growth, were synthesized by all microorganisms tested. Antilysin (factor X(I)), which accelerates cell adaptation to N-ethylmaleimide, was not produced by C. utilis.

The peculiarities of the clinical picture in acute pneumonia in patients with sensibilization of an organism (pronounced rhino-conjunctival syndrome and more prolonged hyperthermic reaction in acute period, frequent aggravations of allergic process) require application of antiallergic therapy. Depending on the character of immunopathological reactions the complex treatment can be provided using administration of desensibilizing drugs, medications of non-specific desensibilization, natrium chromoglicate, corticosteroids, and sometimes plasmapheresis and hemosorption.
