ABSTRACT
Purpose: to demonstrate the possibilities of using SPECT/CT with the new radiopharmaceutical “99mTс, Octreotide” in the diagnosis, assessment of the extent of the process and monitoring of the effectiveness of treatment of neuroendocrine lung tumors.
Material and methods: the presented clinical case examines the medical history of a patient with verified neuroendocrine cancer of the right lung with extensive local spread and the presence of distant lymph node metastases (retroperitoneal lymph nodes) and hematogenous dissemination to bones (ribs and vertebrae). During the initial diagnosis and at the stages of chemotherapy treatment, along with traditional methods of instrumental and laboratory examination, the patient underwent “99mTc, Octreotide” SPECT/CT. The results of the study were assessed visually and using the SUV (standardized accumulation level). When interpreting the results of “99mTc, Octreotide” SPECT/CT with special attention was paid to the dynamics of the SUV indicator at control points for assessing the effectiveness of chemotherapy
treatment.
Results: The results obtained demonstrated the possibility of effective use of “99mTc, Octreotide” SPECT/CT at the stage of primary diagnosis of a neuroendocrine tumor. The data obtained not only confirmed the presence of a malignant tumor of a neuroendocrine nature in the patient, but also made it possible to correctly stage the tumor process, since additional pathological foci were identified in distant lymph nodes and bones. In addition, the use of “99mTc, Octreotide” SPECT/CT during control examinations at the stages of chemotherapy treatment of a patient made it possible to supplement the significance of diagnostic information obtained using traditional research methods and to more reliably assess the effectiveness of the therapy. Already at the first control examination, pronounced positive dynamics were observed after 3 courses of chemotherapy in the form of a decrease in the number of foci of pathological accumulation of “99mTc, Octreotide” and a decrease in the intensity of its inclusion in the remaining areas of the tumor lesion. Also, during further examinations at control points, the opposite – negative dynamics was noted in the form of the appearance of new foci of pathological accumulation of “99mTc, Octreotide”.
Conclusion: The presented experience in the clinical use of “99mTc, Octreotide” SPECT/CT demonstrated the effectiveness and ease of use of this method in patients with neuroendocrine tumors. In addition, the results obtained today make it possible to successfully use the new domestic radiopharmaceutical for the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumors.

ABSTRACT
Purpose: To demonstrate a clinical observation in which the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease with vasospastic coronary microvascular dysfunction was established mainly using 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT.
Material and methods: In patient G.D.S., 39 years old by profession of an electric locomotive driver, who did not present any health complaints, oblique ST segment depression was registered during Holter monitoring on ECG. The following methods were used to establish the diagnosis: echocardiography, X-ray computed tomography (CT) to assess coronary artery calcinosis, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 99mTc-technetril to assess myocardial perfusion and contractile function on hybrid SPECT/CT system SymbiaT16 (Siemens), coronary angiography (CAG).
Results: Only at examination on hybrid tomograph at rest and during physical activity (bicycle ergometer 125 W ‒
5 minutes), sequentially applying in one diagnostic procedure two studies (CT and SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI) 26 study parameters were obtained (at CT ‒ 4 parameters evaluating coronary artery calcinosis, at SPECT ‒ 11 parameters of perfusion and 11 parameters of myocardial function). The absence of coronary artery calcinosis was revealed (which was confirmed by CAG), and the study at rest and during exercise revealed a decrease in perfusion (hence myocardial blood flow) in the apical-lateral (16-th segment); apex (17), apical-anterior (13), anterior-medial (7), anterolateral middle (12); irreversibility of perfusion defect, total and ischemic perfusion deficit.
Conclusion: A clinical observation is demonstrated in which, only the use of hybrid SPECT/CT system allowed to establish the absence of coronary artery calcinosis and the decrease of perfusion (hence myocardial blood flow), irreversibility of perfusion defect, total and ischemic perfusion deficit (all listed indices had penultimate moderately pronounced degree).

ABSTRACT
Purpose: To analyze the relationship between cellular aging and changes in the number and size of phosphorylated histone H2AX (γH2AX) foci in human fibroblasts and their descendants (up to 15 passages) after exposure to low and high doses of X-ray radiation.
Material and methods: The work was performed on a culture of human skin fibroblasts. Cells were irradiated in the exponential growth phase on an X-ray biological unit RUB RUST-M1 (Russia), equipped with two X-ray emitters, at a dose rate of 40 mGy/min (dose 100 mGy) or 850 mGy/min (doses 2000 and 5000 mGy) and temperature 4˚C. Immunocytochemical staining was used to assess the number and size of γH2AX foci and the proportion of proliferating cells using antibodies to γH2AX and Ki67 (a cell proliferation marker protein), respectively. To assess cellular senescence, the proportion of cells positive for senescence-associated β-galactosidase (CA-β-gal(+)) was analyzed. Statistical and mathematical analysis of the obtained data was carried out using the statistical software package Statistica 8.0 (StatSoft).
Results: The studies showed that irradiation of cultured human fibroblasts at a low dose (100 mGy) does not lead to statistically significant changes in the number and size of γH2AX foci, as well as the proportion of non-proliferating and senescent cells in the progenies of irradiated cells up to the 15th passage after irradiation. The phenomenon of aging-associated persistence of an increased number and size of γH2AX foci in passages of cells irradiated at a dose of 5000 mGy was discovered. Mathematical analysis of the relationship between changes in the proportion of CA-β-gal(+) cells, the number and size of γH2AX foci in populations of irradiated cells indicates that radiation-induced cellular aging is more associated with the size, rather than the number, of γH2AX foci.

Аbstract
Cell therapy is a promising direction in medicine, which can significantly improve the results of treatment of various diseases, including local radiation injuries (LRI). The purpose of the study was to compare the results of using decellularized human amniotic membrane isolated and together with lyophilisates of conditioned media of MSCs from the human gingival mucosa and MSCs from human placental tissue and their effect on tissue regeneration in LRI.
Material and methods: The study included 42 laboratory animals (white male rats of the Wistar line), randomly divided into 6 groups: K – control group without therapy, on the 21st day after irradiation, groups using: Am+LD – application of lyophilisate of the conditioned medium of MSCs of the human gingival mucosa (LD) under the decellularized amniotic membrane, Am+LP – application of lyophilisate of the conditioned medium of MSCs of human placental tissue (LP) under the decellularized amniotic membrane, Am – application of the decellularized amniotic membrane, AmCl – application of the decellularized amniotic membrane with medical glue BF-6, Kl – application medical glue BF-6. Modeling of LRI in animals was carried out on an LNK-268 X-ray unit at a dose of 110 Gy and observed until the 112th day after irradiation, monitoring of the ulcerative surface of the skin and the course of the inflammatory process of LRI was carried out with calculation of the area of the total changed skin in the ImageTool software. Planimetric and histological analyzes were performed.
Results: It was demonstrated that, when compared with the control, the use of decellularized amniotic membrane in LRI on days 77 and 112 after irradiation increased the healing rate by 4.6 and 18 times, respectively; decellularized amniotic membrane with lyophilisate of placental MSC conditioned medium increased the rate of wound healing by 13.5 and 27 times, respectively; and a dellularized amniotic membrane with lyophilisate of MSCs from the human gingival mucosa to 100 % healing. Healing of the ulcer surface area of the LRI in 83.5 % of animals in the Am group demonstrated the effectiveness of using isolated decellularized amniotic membrane even in the absence of human MSC lyophilisates. At the same time, healing of the ulcer surface area of the LRI in the AmCl group was 20 % of cases, where the decellularized amniotic membrane was fixed with BF-6 medical glue, which was less effective compared
to other groups.
Conclusion: The proposed combined use of decellularized amniotic membrane with lyophilisates of the conditioned medium of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) of the placenta and mucous tissue of the human gums and the isolated use of decellularized amniotic membrane led to complete epithelization of the ulcer surface, a pronounced favorable course of grade IIIb–IV LRI in laboratory animals and a reduction in healing time , the absence of local or systemic complications can be considered as a promising method of conservative treatment for LRI of the skin and a new therapeutic approach in the treatment of non-healing and chronic wounds.

ABSTRACT
Purpose: To study clinical, hematologic and immunologic parameters in assessing the anti-radiation efficacy of the therapeutic agent based on the microorganism Fusobacterium necrophorum.
Material and methods: The studies on determination of the anti-radiation efficacy of the strains of microorganisms killed by gamma-irradiation were carried out on sexually mature sexless white mice and white rats with live weight of 18–20 and 180–200 g, respectively, divided into experimental and control groups according to the principle of analogs. Modeling of acute radiation sickness was carried out on a Puma gamma unit with a radioactive source of cesium-137 at a dose of LD100/30. As potential anti-radiation drugs we used inactivated by irradiation on the gamma unit Explorer preparations of microbial origin F. necrophorum strain 8. necrophorum strain 8TS630501 at doses of 15, 20, 25 and 30 kGy. The tested preparations were injected subcutaneously in the volume of 0.2 cm3 to white mice and 2.0 cm3 to white rats 3 days after radiation exposure.
Results: It was experimentally established that complete sterilization of the microbe occurs at doses of 25 and 30 kGy. The culture of
F. necrophorum, irradiated at doses of 25 and 30 kGy and administered to animals 3 days after external radiation exposure, promoted survival, preservation of 60 to 80 % of lethally irradiated white mice and rats. At the same time the recovery of leukocytes and hemoglobin number was slow and continued until the end of the study. In animals treated with the developed therapeutic agents, there was also a decrease in the number of T-cells, but it was less pronounced than in the irradiation control group. The number of B-lymphocytes was affected similarly to T-lymphocytes. The minimum of the number of B-lymphocytes in the experimental groups was noted at 14 days. Studies on the intensity of the process of lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the content of malonic dialdehyde in peripheral blood of gamma-irradiated, treated and intact rats, it was found that in the irradiated control group there is a significant increase in the LPO index in blood in relation to biological control and treatment groups.
Conclusion: It has been established that the highest anti-radiation efficacy is possessed by a therapeutic agent of microbial origin (RNF-30), which was obtained by gamma-irradiation at a dose of 30 kGy of the culture of F. necrophorum.
