In recent years, there have emerged new directions in the study of the histological structure of the digestive tract in humans and mammals and, in particular, white rats, since non-inbred white rats are the main model for reproducing human pathology under experimental conditions as well as for preclinical testing of new drugs. Objective. A comparative study of the histological features of the cecum and appendix in rats and humans by means of bibliographic analysis. Material and methods. Bibliographic analysis is based on published peer-reviewed articles, books, textbooks, monographs, dissertation abstracts. For the purposes of a systematic review, the literature search (concerning the study of the histological structure of the cecum and appendix) was carried out on the Internet, in native literature sources, the scientific and electronic library of Poltava State Medical University using the following keywords: “histology”, “microscopic structure”, \"digestive system\", \"cecum\", \"appendix\", \"white rats\", \"rat anatomy\". Results. The mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract of white rats, in terms of its histological structure, is similar enough to that of humans to serve as an object in the experimental modeling of certain pathological conditions of the digestive system. Conclusions. There has been found an increased concentration of lymphoid nodules in cecal mucosa of white rats. In white rats and humans, the cecum and the appendix in humans are endowed with the same immune defense structures, which together represent the immune system of the digestive tract mucosa.","PeriodicalId":34878,"journal":{"name":"Gepatologiia i gastroenterologiia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48476234","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}

Though thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver fibrosis (LF) is recognized as a classical model of toxic liver damage, there is no literature data on the description of its successive stages of histological and ultrastructural changes in various cell populations involved in fibrosis. Objective. To conduct morphological monitoring of fibrosis formation in the liver of rats using the TAA model of LF based on histological and ultrastructural changes in hepatocytes and perisinusoidal lipocytes (HSC). Material and methods. The experiment was carried out on 18 sexually mature male rats. LF was modeled by intraperitoneal injection of 2% TAA solution at a dose of 10 ml / kg every other day. Light microscopy of semi-thin sections of the liver was performed, as well as electron microscopy of ultrathin sections. Results. The study of semi-thin sections of rat liver tissue from the control group showed a normal architecture of the parenchyma, a large number of HSCs containing large lipid droplets (\"resting\" phenotype), a very small amount of cytoplasmic matrix poor in membrane organelles. In the animals that were receiving TAA for 4 weeks, a mesenchymalepithelial transition of HSCs from the \"resting\" type to a fibrogenic state (fibrogenic phenotype) was recorded, that was accompanied by a gradual decrease in the number of retinol-containing drops and the appearance of fibroblastlike cells (FLC) in HSCs. In the animals, that were receiving TAA for 12 weeks, the pool of fibrogenic cells in the liver increased, a mesothelial-mesenchymal transition occurred, characterized by the mesothelial cell migration deeper into the parenchyma and their acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype. Lipid containing activated FLC were also found in fibrous tissue around the central vein. Foci of hepatic tissue destruction caused by necrosis and apoptosis of hepatocytes were much more common. Conclusions. Administration of TAA induces liver fibrosis while histological and ultrastructural monitoring of the state of hepatocytes and HSCs allows to monitor all stages of fibrosis, clarifying the mechanisms of damage to intracellular organelles and variants of hepatocyte death. This model of LF in rats can be used to test new antifibrotic drugs.","PeriodicalId":34878,"journal":{"name":"Gepatologiia i gastroenterologiia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42771858","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}

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid found mainly in protein foods and its availability is highly dependent on a diet. A significant part of tryptophan is metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract by the intestinal microbiota, producing a number of biologically active molecules, including aryl hydrocarbon receptor ligands, kynurenines, and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine). Objective. To analyze scientific studies confirming the key role of tryptophan microbial catabolites on the function of a macroorganism. Material and methods. The analysis of 47 English-language literature sources containing information on the effects of tryptophan metabolites on the mammalian organism was carried out. Results. It has been established that tryptophan metabolism plays a central role both in a normal macroorganism and in pathological conditions, it being directly or indirectly controlled by the intestinal microbiota. Conclusions. Thus, tryptophan metabolism is an important therapeutic target, underutilized in the treatment of a number of chronic neurological pathologies and immunocompetent conditions. An important factor is the use of nutraceuticals and probiotics by microorganisms that modulate the metabolism of tryptophan in the intestine and stimulate the synthesis of specific metabolites.","PeriodicalId":34878,"journal":{"name":"Gepatologiia i gastroenterologiia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44637946","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}

Hepatic grafts with severe steatosis, previously considered unsuitable for transplantation due to the higher risk of primary graft failure, are now referred to as potential for transplantation. There are several ways to diagnose and determine the stage of steatosis, but, unfortunately, today none of them can give an accurate and rapid assessment of its grade in a hepatic graft. Currently, the \"gold standard\" for determining liver steatosis is a biopsy with subsequent examination of samples by a pathomorphologist. There are also prognostic models, non-invasive tests and instrumental methods, the effectiveness of which has been proven - these are ultrasound elastography, contrast computed tomography and contrast computed tomography with liver density measurement. The decision on the suitability of a hepatic graft for transplantation depends on many factors, both on the part of the donor and on the part of the recipient, and it would be correct to assume that these data should be taken into account in aggregate.

Objective. Assessment of ultrastructural changes in LH in the liver tissue of patients with OZ. Material and methods. Histological preparations of liver tissue from 20 patients with OZ aged 21 to 40 years (18 men and 2 women) with different duration of OZ and opioid tolerance. Results. There was established the following dependence of ultrastructural changes in the liver in patients with different duration of OZ and opioid tolerance. The most pronounced changes were noted in the group of patients with prolonged (more than 6 years) opioid intoxication and high tolerance to opioids in the liver tissue, in whom, along with severe steatosis, there were more significant violations of the mechanisms of LH degradation, destruction of cristae in mitochondria, a decrease in the number of lipophagosomes and PH with signs of superficial degradation than in the group of patients with OZ duration up to 6 years, as well as with moderate and high opioid tolerance. Conclusions. Ultrastructural changes in hepatocytes in the form of progression of steatosis in the centrilobular and periportal zones, a decrease in the activity of LH degradation, gross morphological changes in mitochondria, a decrease in the activity of surface LH degradation depend on the activity and duration of opioid dependence and are more pronounced with long-term (more than 6 years) highly progressive opioid dependence.","PeriodicalId":34878,"journal":{"name":"Gepatologiia i gastroenterologiia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44635292","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}
