The article presents the results of a comparative evaluation five promising hybrids Chaenomeles japonica (Thunb.) Lindl. ex Spach (2-44-05, 3-27-05, 5-50-03, 1-64-05, 3-17-05), identified according to complex commercially valuable traits (winter hardiness, yield, fruit weight, low thorniness, resistance rot), and Likhtar variety in conditions Belarus. Significant differences have been found ter...

Normal mouse lymphoid cells have been shown to become specifically paralyzed after in vitro exposure to high doses of detoxified endotoxin of Escherichia coli 055:B5. The immune status of the treated cells was tested after transfer to secondary irradiated hosts. Paralysis was shown to be initiated by events taking place in vitro, since the amount of antigen retained on the cells after the in vi...

The breaking of tolerance against the lipopolysaccharide from E. coli 055:B5 was studied. It was found that immune responsiveness recovered very slowly in vivo, tolerance still existing 3 wk after the last tolerizing injection. However, if spleen cells from tolerant mice were transferred into irradiated syngeneic recipients, the tolerant state was readily broken. Spleen cells transferred 3 days...

Introduction. This study evaluates the progression of dementia and identifies prognostic risk factors for dementia. Methods. A group of 80 Brazilian community residents with dementia (34 with Alzheimer's disease and 46 with vascular dementia) was assessed over the course of 2 years. Data were analyzed with Cox regression survival analysis. Results. The data showed that education predicted cogni...

The effect of L-carnitine and some of its acyl derivatives on serum TNF production and lethality in a murine experimental endotoxin shock model was investigated. In some instances, serum IL-6 production was also evaluated. In this experimental model, C57BL/6 mice received 30 mg/kg LPS (E. cell 055:B5) injected intraperitoneally, while L-carnitine and its derivatives were administered according ...
