Abstract
Blood samples from patients with undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (UCTD) associated with back pain were analyzed using X-band EPR at temperatures ranging from 5 to 80 K. It was found that even moderate UCTD exhibits elevated methemoglobin and erythrocyte catalase concentrations. In severe UCTD, high methemoglobin concentrations and low transferrin levels are detected in the blood. As a result of computer modeling, it was established that the EPR spectra of blood samples from patients with UCTD and volunteers (control) are described by the same set of parameters, differing mainly only in the intensities of the components.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics is an international peer reviewed journal published with the participation of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It presents full-text articles (regular, letters to the editor, reviews) with the most recent results in miscellaneous fields of physics and astronomy: nuclear physics, cosmic rays, condensed matter physics, plasma physics, optics and photonics, nanotechnologies, solar and astrophysics, physical applications in material sciences, life sciences, etc. Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics focuses on the most relevant multidisciplinary topics in natural sciences, both fundamental and applied. Manuscripts can be submitted in Russian and English languages and are subject to peer review. Accepted articles are usually combined in thematic issues on certain topics according to the journal editorial policy. Authors featured in the journal represent renowned scientific laboratories and institutes from different countries, including large international collaborations. There are globally recognized researchers among the authors: Nobel laureates and recipients of other awards, and members of national academies of sciences and international scientific societies.
