Abstract
The effect of humic acids and substances with similar action - derivatives of succinic acid (ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate) and combined agent consisting of succinic acid, nicotinamide, riboflavin, and riboxin on the performance and stress resistance of experimental rats was studied. Performance was assessed in the test of exhaustive forced swimming with a load, stress resistance was evaluated by the serum level of corticosterone and open field behavior, and the state of anaerobic metabolism was estimated by the serum level of lactate after swimming test. Humic acids from peat showed anti-stress activity comparable to that of the officinal preparation and preventive effect on fatigue during physical exercise. They can be recommended as a component for the development of drugs that increase human performance and stress resistance.

Abstract
Humic acids isolated by sodium pyrophosphate extraction from various types of peat activate macrophages in the classical proinflammatory pathway and stimulate nitric oxide production by these cells. This effect is mediated by activation of intracellular signaling pathways involving MAPK p38, PI3K, MEK 1/2 kinase, cAMP, and NF-κB via TLR-2 and TLR-4 receptors.

Abstract
Aim. To assess the effect of iron-rich humic substances on hematological parameters in acute post-hemorrhagic and iron deficiency anemia.Materials and methods. Materials for the study were samples of iron-rich active pharmaceutical ingredients based on humic substances (Fe(III) hydroxide complexes with humic substances and polymaltose): HA-Fe3+, HA-PMFe3+, FA-Fe3+, and FA-PM-Fe3+. The anti-anemic activity of the substances was studied on 53 female Wistar rats of the conventional rat line in the model of acute posthemorrhagic and iron deficiency anemia. Anti-anemic activity was assessed by the hemoglobin level, erythrocyte count, hematocrit, and serum iron level.Results. The studied substances HA-Fe3+ and FA-Fe3+ are the most effective in correcting the consequences of both experimental acute posthemorrhagic anemia and iron deficiency anemia. Their effect is comparable to that of the positive control drug Ferrum Lek.Conclusion. Fe(III) hydroxide complexes stabilized by humic and fulvic acids exhibit anti-anemic activity.

Abstract
Humic acids extracted with sodium pyrophosphate from Oligotrophic Sphagnum magellanicum peat reduce mitogen-stimulated production of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 by mouse peritoneal macrophages and do not affect the secretion of IL-4 by lymphocytes. The studied humic acid sample stimulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines IL-12, TNFα, IL-1β, and IFNγ by immunocompetent mouse cells and human mononuclear cells. Course administration of humic acids to mice enhances the humoral immunity, increasing the number of antibody-forming cells in the spleen and the titer of antibodies in the blood serum after immunization with sheep red blood cells.

Abstract
One of prospective methods for immunotherapy of tumors is modulation via immunological checkpoints, specifically, via the PD-1(CD279)/PD-L1(CD274) system. Interactions between tumor cell receptor (CD279) and the ligand on lymphocytes (CD274) leads to lymphocyte inactivation, which allows tumor escape from the immune control. Experiments on C57BL/6 mice with Lewis lung carcinoma demonstrate the possibility of reducing the expression of CD279 and CD274 on the peripheral blood and tumor tissue lymphocytes under the effects of Tussilago farfara L. polysaccharides. This phenomenon can underlie the antitumor and antimetastatic effects of these substances.

Abstract
Prion and some other incurable human neurodegenerative diseases are associated with misfolding of specific proteins, followed by the formation of amyloids. Despite the widespread usage of the transmission electron and of the atomic force microscopy for studing such amyloids, many related methodological issues still have not been studied until now. Here, we consider one of the first amyloids found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, i.e. Sup35NMp, to study the adsorption of monomeric protein and its fibrils on the surface of mica, silica, gold and on formvar film. Comparison of linear characteristics of these units calculated by processing of images obtained by the atomic force, transmission and scanning electron microscopy was carried out. The minimal number of measurements of fibril diameters to obtain the values in a given confidence interval were determined. We investigated the film formed by monomeric protein on mica surface, which veiled some morphology features of fibrils. Besides, we revealed that parts of the Sup35NMp excluded from the fibril core can form a wide "coat". The length of the protein forming the core of the fibrils was estimated.

Abstract
The interaction of [PSI^(+)] and [PIN^(+)] factors in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is known as the first evidence of prions networks. In [PIN^(+)] cells, Rnq1p prion aggregates work as a template for Sup35p aggregation, which is essential for [PSI^(+)] induction. No additional factors are required for subsequent Sup35p aggregation. Nevertheless, several recent reports provide data that indicate a more complex interplay between these prions. Our results show that the presence of Rnq1p in the cell significantly decreases the loss of [PSI^(+)] prion, which is caused by a double mutation in SUP35 (Q61K, Q62K substitutions in the Sup35 protein). These observations support the existence of interaction networks that converge on a strong linkage of prionogenic and prion-like proteins, and the participation of Rnq1 protein in the maintenance of prion [PSI^(+)].

Abstract
We studied activation of macrophages with humic acids extracted from peat of large deposits in the Tomsk region by two extraction methods: by hydroxide or sodium pyrophosphate. Humic acid of lowland peat types containing large amounts of aromatic carbon, phenolic and alcohol groups, carbohydrate residues and ethers, irrespectively of the extraction methods contained LPS admixture that probably determines their activating properties. Humic acid of upland peat types characterized by high content of carbonyl, carboxyl, and ester groups enhance NO production and reduce arginase expression, but these effects were minimized when sodium hydroxide was used as an extraction solvent. Pyrophosphate samples of the upland peat types were characterized by aromaticity and diversity of functional groups and have a significant advantage because of they induce specific endotoxin-independent stimulating action on antigen presenting cells.

Abstract
Translation termination is an important step in gene expression. Its correct processing is governed by eRF1 (Sup45) and eRF3 (Sup35) proteins. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mutations in the corresponding genes, as well as Sup35 aggregation in [PSI^(+)] cells that propagate the prion form of Sup35 lead to inaccurate stop codon recognition and, consequently, nonsense suppression. The presence of stronger prion variants results in the more efficient suppression of nonsense mutations. Previously, we proposed a synthetic lethality test that enables the identification of genes that may influence either translation termination factors or [PSI^(+)] manifestation. This is based on the fact that the combination of sup45 mutations with the strong [PSI^(+)] prion variant in diploids is lethal. In this work, a set of genes that were previously shown to enhance nonsense suppression was analyzed. It was found that ABF1, FKH2, and REB1 overexpression decreased the growth of strains in a prion-dependent manner and, thus, might influence [PSI^(+)] prion toxicity. It was also shown that the synthetic lethality of [PSI^(+)] and sup45 mutations increased with the overexpression of GLN3 and MOT3 that encode Q/N-rich transcription factors. An analysis of the effects of their expression on the transcription of the release factors genes revealed an increase in SUP35 transcription in both cases. Since SUP35 overexpression is known to be toxic in [PSI^(+)] strains, these genes apparently enhance [PSI^(+)] toxicity via the regulation of SUP35 transcription.

Abstract
Activation of m-, d1-, d2- and k1-opioid receptors increases cardiac resistance to ischemia-reperfusion. The cardioprotective effect of opioids in many cases appears to be associated with the activation of the peripheral OR. However, when it comes to non-peptide agonists OR able to cross the blood-brain barrier, we cannot exclude the involvement of central opioid receptors in cardioprotection. Endogenous opioids are not involved in the regulation of cardiac tolerance to ischemia- reperfusion in non-adapted animals. Stimulation of k1- and d1-OP may exert delayed cardioprotective effect. Activation d- and k1-OP reduces the intensity of cardiomyocyte apoptosis after reperfusion. The results of studies related to the inotropic effect of opioids during reperfusion of the heart remain highly controversial.

Abstract
A screening study of biological activity of native humic acids isolated from peat was performed; several physical and chemical parameters of their structures were studied by UV- and infrared spectroscopy. Spectroscopy yielded similar shape of light absorption curves of humic acids of different origin, which can reflect similarity of general structural principles of these substances. Alkaline humic acids have more developed system of polyconjugation, while molecular structures of pyrophosphate humic acids were characterized by higher aromaticity and condensation indexes. Biological activity of the studied humic acids was assessed by NO-stimulating capacity during their culturing with murine peritoneal macrophages in a wide concentration range. It was shown that due to dose-dependent enhancement of NO production humic acids can change the functional state of macrophages towards development of pro-inflammatory properties. These changes were associated with high activity of humic acids isolated by pyrophosphate extraction, which allows considering effects of isolation method on biological activity.

Abstract
Screening study of the effects of sweet flag (Acorus calamus L.) rhizome and clover (Trifolium pratense L.) aerial part on the production of NO by mouse macrophages was carried out. The polysaccharides were separated by ion exchange chromatography into fractions differing by monomeric composition and ramification type and were used in concentrations of 20, 40, and 100 μg/ml. Four fractions of Acorus calamus L. (PSF-101, PSF-102, PSF-103, and PSF-105), used in different concentrations, moderately stimulated nitrite production by macrophages. Three of five Trifolium pratense L. polysaccharides (PS62-3, PS62-4, and PS62-5) exhibited a significant specific effect on NO production. Rhamnogalactouronans from clover PS63-3 in all concentrations and from PS62-5 in a concentration of 100 μg/ml exhibited the highest activity, comparable to the NO-stimulatory activity of the reference LPS, while polysaccharide PS62-3 in a concentration of 40 μg/ml exhibited even higher activity.

Abstract
We studied cytogenetic polymorphism of the seeds of Pinus sylvestris L. in response to heavy metals exposure in laboratory settings over 2 years' time. We compared results obtained from the seedlings of different years: 2012 and 2013. With an increase in Ni2+ and Cd2+ concentration we observed a decrease in mitotic activity with concurrent rise in the percentage of cells in the prophase. This fact demonstrates the heavy metals act similar to both fixatives and substances that block cleavage spindle formation. In terms of pathological mitosis and the frequency of micronuclei cells, Cd2+ shows higher mutagenity compared to Ni2+. In addition, in the experimental samples, we have distinguished abnormalities such as fragmentations and agglutinations of chromosomes and especially C mitosis occurrence, which are not observed in the control.

Signaling events during macrophage activation with Betula pendula roth pectic polysaccharides. Bull Exp Biol Med 2014; 156:465-9.

Abstract
We studied the effect of two pectic polysaccharides PS-B1-AG and PS-B2-RG that were contained in total polysaccharides extracted from Betula pendula leaves on NO production by mouse macrophages and the contribution of signaling molecules to macrophage activation by the test substances. Unlike the total sample, pectins produced a NO-stimulating effect on macrophages. The effect of PS-B2-RG (10 μg/ml) did not differ from the effect of LPS, while PS-B1-AG produced this effect only in a concentration of 20 μg/ml, which was probably due to differences in the chemical structure of the test substances. The studied pectin polysaccharides activated transcription factor NF-κB, kinases p38 and PI3, and cAMP as a negative regulator. These results indicate that Betula pendula polysaccharides are promising substances for creation of immunomodulating drugs.

Abstract
We have studied the influence of water-soluble polysaccharides isolated from Tussilago farfara L. leaves, Betula verrucosa Ehrh. leaves, Calendula officinalis L. flowers, Acorus calamus rhizomes, Inula helenium L. rhizomes, overground part of Trifolium pretense L., and overground part ofArtemisia absinthium L., on Thl immune response induced by sheep red blood cells and on NO production by murine peritoneal macrophages in vitro. All the investigated polysaccharides have stimulated a Th1 response. Polysaccharides isolated from Betula verrucosa leaves did not influence NO synthesis, while polysaccharides of Tussilago farfara leaves and Acorus calamus rhizomes stimulated NO synthase of murine macrophages on a level comparable with that of lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Polysaccharides from Inula helenium rhizomes, Calendula officinalis flowers, and overground parts of Trifolium pretense and Artemisia absinthium also stimulated NO production, but to a lower extent in comparison to LPS.

Abstract
Cumazid, a new prophylactic immunotherapy preparation, has been created based on the total glycoside fraction isolated from Cucumaria japonica sea cucumber species. The acute and chronic toxicity of the preparation has been characterized according to the pharmacopoeieal requirements. With respect to the acute toxicity upon intragastric administration, cumazid belongs to class IV (weakly dangerous) drugs. In 3-month chronic tests, cumazid administered in doses within 1 - 100 microg/kg did not produce any significant toxic action on laboratory animals.

Abstract
Were studied the effects of water-soluble plant polysaccharides isolated from pharmacopoeic raw material on anaphylactic shock and production of IgE and IgG1 by lymphocytes from mice immunized with ovalbumin. Course treatment with polysaccharides from coltsfoot, sweet flag, clover, Artemisia, marigold, and elecampane reduced animal mortality after induction of anaphylactic shock. In addition, injection of these substances reduced serum concentrations of IgE and IgG1. These substances can be regarded as promising agents for the treatment of IgE-dependent diseases (atopic dermatitis, asthma, atopic rhinitis, urticaria, food allergies, etc.).

Abstract
Within the Flory approach we study the phase diagrams of two-component fluids, the molecules of each component A(f(A)), B(f(B)) bearing f(A) (f(B)) functional groups capable of forming thermoreversible A-A and B-B bonds. We develop a general procedure to classify these diagrams depending on the values of four governing parameters -- entropies and normalized energies of A-A and B-B bonds, and give full topological classification of phase diagrams with f(A,B)> or =3. We show that these phase diagrams can have immiscibility loops and up to four critical points.
