Cryogenically structured sponges in the form of cylindrical specimens, 5 mm in diameter and 5 mm in height, prepared from bovine serum albumin, were used as the bioregulator carrier. The experimental laboratory animals were male Chinchilla rabbits, weighing 2–2.5 kg. Bone tissue was skeletonized under anesthesia (intramuscular anesthetic Zoletil 100) with a 3-cm incision in the angle of the mandible and a 5-mm-diameter cutter was used to create a 2–3-mm deep defect to install an appropriate-size albumin sponge. A total of 24 animals participated in the experiment. X-ray control of the defect area was performed in vivo on day 14 using PanExam+ (Kavo) device (20 m X-ray). Histological examination of tissues was carried out at day 30 after the defect using a light microscope.Results. Experiments performed indicate an active restoration of bone tissue in the extensive defect area when using an albumin-based 3D carrier with the inclusion of a bioregulator as compared to the control experiments. There were osteointegrative and osteoinductive processes, almost complete decomposition (biodegradation) of albumin sponge with formation of islands of dense bone tissue with small foci of coarse fibrous tissue in the defect. This demonstrated good dynamics of recovery processes at this stage of healing.Conclusion. Under the action of a serum bioregulator contained in an albumin-based sponge, the repair process leads to restoration of normal bone tissue without formation of bone callus and altered bone tissue different from the native one.","PeriodicalId":21400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Transplantology and Artificial Organs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79000144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attitude towards organ donation is predominantly positive in the UK, however, donation rate remains low. To develop more effective interventions, this research aims to examine the behavioural barriers in organ donations using Q methodology to elicit patterns of overlap among different barriers and motivators.Method. A Q methodology study was conducted with 40 participants aged 19–64 were asked to rank 47 statements on issues that are associated with organ donation. By-person factor analysis using Centroid method and Varimax rotation was conducted to bring out patterns in the way statements were ranked to obtain groupings of participants who had arranged the statements in similar fashion.Results. Four viewpoints were extracted: The Realist, the Optimist Hesitant, the Pessimist Determinant and the Empathetic. Salient barriers to organ donation presented in each viewpoint suggest that perceived lack of knowledge, anxiety, mistrust in the healthcare system and lack of cue to action are the main barriers to organ donation. Consensus statements suggest that religion and family agreement are inconsequential if attitude to organ donation is well formed.Conclusion. There are different attitudes around deceased organ donation that were uncovered using Q methodology. These results suggest that people respond to behavioural change campaigns differently depending in their own perceptions on organ donation. We argue that a paradigm shift in behavioural interventions is underpinned by understanding the overlapping yet distinctive nature perceived perspectives.","PeriodicalId":21400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Transplantology and Artificial Organs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72883564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of immunomodulators to regulate reparative processes in affected organs and tissues remains a pressing issue. Of greatest interest is liver regeneration after extended hepatic resection (EHR) in donors in right lobe living related donor liver transplantation. We propose a transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) with an immunomodulator to enhance the natural process of liver tissue regeneration. Objective: to study the effect of transdermal administration of immunomodulator sodium aminodihydrophthalazinedione on early recovery processes in the liver after EHR in in vivo experiments.Materials and methods. Sodium aminodihydrophthalazinedione was used as an active substance in TTS in the form of powder for preparation of intramuscular injection solution (Galavit®, SELVIM LLC). An experimental EHR model was performed on 22 male Wistar rats weighing 350–380 g. After HER, all animals were divided into two groups. Group 1 (n = 10) consisted of untreated animals. In group 2 (n = 12), TTS was applied immediately after liver resection. The experiment lasted for 48 hours; the TTS was changed once after 24 hours from the beginning of application.Results. In either group, there was no significant difference in the weight of liver remnant gain and in biochemical blood parameters at 48 hours after EHR. Assessment of the mitotic index (MI) of hepatocytes 48 hours after EHR revealed a significant increase in MI in both groups in comparison with the baseline (before liver resection) equal to 0.14 ± 0.07‰. The MI in group 1 and group 2 animals was 12.70 ± 4.9‰ and 17.43 ± 4.90‰, respectively (p ≤ 0.05).Conclusion. Studies on the regenerative activity of sodium aminodihydrophthalazinedione TTS on an experimental EHR model in rats showed that this drug form had a pronounced stimulating effect on the mitotic activity of liver cells.","PeriodicalId":21400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Transplantology and Artificial Organs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91278703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The involvement of several PCD at once in the development of any one pathology and one type of PCD in different pathologies was established. This indicates the existence of cross-regulation of metabolism in the liver cells with different levels of damage in the formation of the main dominant type of PCD.

Twenty participants were selected using the purposive sampling method; data were collected by semi-structured interviews and analyzed based on Lundman and Graneheim contractual content analysis method after implementing MAX 12.Results. Data analysis elicitated 721 codes, 20 subcategories, six main categories, and two themes, including positive and negative implications of organ donation from the viewpoint of living donors. The main categories of positive effects resulting from organ donation included the «donor’s peace of mind», «fundamental strength», and «recipient’s achievements».

Developing a tissue-engineered pancreatic construct (TEPC) involves a search for matrices/scaffolds capable of mimicking the structure and composition of the natural extracellular matrix (ECM), which is an important component of the tissue microenvironment. A cell-free, tissue-specific matrix obtained from pancreas decellularization seems to be the most suitable for creation of a TEPC. The choice of pancreatic tissue decellularization protocol should take into account the morphological characteristics of the original pancreas. Preservation of the architectonics and composition of the native tissue in the decellularized pancreas matrix (DPM), and the presence of native ECM components allow for creation of conditions for prolonged vital activity of functionally active islet (insulin-producing) cells when creating TEPC.Objective: to determine the optimal parameters for decellularization of deceased donor pancreas with fibrosis, lipomatosis, and without pronounced signs of fibrosis and lipomatosis.Materials and methods. We used the caudal part of the pancreas obtained after multiorgan procurement from deceased donors, which was unsuitable for transplantation. Tissue-specific matrix was obtained by a combination of physical and chemical methods of pancreatic decellularization. A freeze-thaw cycle protocol and two protocols using osmotic shock were used. Samples of initial pancreatic tissue and decellularized fragments were subjected to histological analysis.Results. It was shown that a physico-chemical method with freeze-thaw cycles is suitable for effective pancreatic decellularization in severe lipomatosis; a physico-chemical method using osmotic shock, but different protocol variants, is suitable for pancreas with diffuse fibrosis and for pancreas without pronounced signs of fibrosis and lipomatosis.Conclusion.
