Abstract
Recently, it was shown that the sleep-wake rhythm of the inhabitants of the temperate zone is entrained to sun time. In the North, significant seasonal changes in the photoperiod may interfere with entrainment of the circadian system to sunlight. This investigation assessed the influence of photoperiod characteristics on the sleep length and sleep-wake rhythm of residents of high latitude. The study was conducted in four towns and six villages located between 59.5?N and 67.6?N latitude between the months of October and May from 2009 through 2011 and included 2822 subjects aged 10 to 97 yrs, 1621 of whom were females and 1201 males. The chronotype and sleep length of the subjects were assessed using the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire. The instructions for the questionnaire stressed the need to specify the sleep-wake schedule during the week preceding the date of completing the questionnaire. The study found that the length of sleep and the chronotype of the inhabitants surveyed in Northern European Russia depend on age, sex, type of settlement, and place of residence. The time of sunrise was a stronger predictor of sleep length and chronotype than the time of sunset and day length. A later chronotype and shorter sleep length were found for the subjects during the equinox (sunrise at 06:00 h) than under long-photoperiod conditions (sunrise at 04:00-05:00 h). During short-photoperiod conditions (sunrise at 07:00-10:00 h), no significant changes in the self-reported sleep-wake rhythm were found. The time of sunrise had the strongest impact on the sleep-wake rhythm of 30- to 97-yr-old persons. Sunrise had a stronger influence on chronotype and sleep length in January to May, when the days become longer, than in October to December, when the days become shorter. Age- and season-associated changes were found in the entrainment of the sleep-wake rhythm by photoperiod in the North.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro effects of vegetable carbohydrates on the activity of microbial β-glucuronidase (βG) and the adsorption of the enzyme on carbohydrates. This study used pectin-protein complexes (PPCs) with molecular weights of 300 kDa isolated under conditions simulating a gastric environment from cabbage (HCl-PPCC and HCl+pepsin-PPCCP) and sweet pepper (PPCP and PPCPP). As a sample for comparison, microcrystalline cellulose was used. The activity of βG from Escherichia coli was determined spectrophotometrically by the formation of the colored product from the breakdown of phenolphthalein-β-D-glucuronide. Adsorption of βG on biopolymers was studied by the retention of the enzyme on the membrane of a concentrator with a pore diameter of 300 kDa and by native PAGE. PPCCP and PPCC were established to increase the activity of βG by 50 and 100%, respectively. Cellulose had a weak effect, whereas pepper PPC had no effect. All studied carbohydrates adsorb on βG. The maximum βG adsorption (15%) was observed with PPCC, whereas PPCCP absorbed 5% of the enzyme. Pepper PPCs and cellulose adsorbed up to 10% of the enzyme. There was a positive correlation between the increase of βG activity in the presence of carbohydrates and enzyme adsorption on the polymers (r=0.80; P<0.01). The activity of the enzyme in the gel after electrophoresis of the PPCC+βG mixture was inversely proportional to the concentration of PPCC in the mixture. A model explaining the effects of cabbage PPCs on the excretion of estrogens is proposed.

Abstract
The paper deals with mulivariate regression analysis of effects of latitude, economic environment and electricity consumption on breast cancer morbidity in 35 countries (1985-2007). Our data are compared with the influence of the same factors on incidence rates for ovarian carcinoma, endometrial and cervical cancer as well as those of the stomach, liver, colon and lung. It was found that rates of morbidity for breast, endometrial, colonic and lung cancer tend to increase north of the equator while cervical, gastric and hepatic cancer incidence is relatively higher in circumequatorial populations. In 1985, geographic factors made a dramatic contribution to hormone-dependent tumors incidence while economic ones--to that of gastrointestinal neoplasms. In the 2000-ies, climate-related risks of hormone-dependent tumors have gradually slumped down while those of economic and social factors have increased.

Abstract
Residing at northern latitudes for long periods of time is associated with sleep disturbances and internal desynchronization, which are considered to be causes of chronic diseases in old age. In children and teenagers, they result in a poor school achievement, psychological problems, and increase in consumption of stimulants. In this paper, we analyze the relationship between both chronotype and sleep length and the variables of age, sex, place of residence, type of settlement (village/city), latitude and longitude of residence, and school achievement of young inhabitants of northern European Russia. We surveyed 1101 children and teenagers between 11 to 23 yrs of age living in four settlements located between 59 degrees and 67 degrees North latitude and 33 degrees and 60 degrees East longitude. The Munich chronotype questionnaire (MCTQ) was used in the study, and all participants were also required to answer a question about their school achievements. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to assess the influence of the analyzed factors on sleep length and chronotype. Self-reported sleep length of teenagers depended moderately on age, whereas the place of residence, latitude, and type of settlement only had a weak effect. Chronotype strongly depended on place of residence and longitude; it moderately depended on latitude and age; and it weakly depended on sex and type of settlement. The sleep length of village teenagers was 46 min longer than that of urban teenagers. The authors found a 1 h and 18 min phase delay of the sleep-wake rhythm (as a marker of chronotype) in teenagers moving in the East-West direction and a 16-min delay moving in the South-North direction within one time zone. There was a weak, but significant, positive correlation between chronotype and time of sunrise. There was about a 2-fold stronger influence of chronotype than sleep length on achievement of school children and college students. We conclude that socioeconomic factors exert a significant influence on sleep length and that climatic conditions exert a significant influence on the chronotype of teenagers in the northern latitudes.

Abstract
Long term acting climatic and social factors of the North causes desynchronization of human circadian system that can lead to increase in risk of age-associated diseases. Earlier on small sample we have shown, that the higher latitude of residing in the North, the higher rate of occurrence of late chronotype. It is noted also, that parameters of daily rhythm at late chronotype person are less expressed, than at early one. The purpose of present research is to study distribution of rates of various chronotypes depending on latitude of residing. Chronotypes were assessed by the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ). Our study includes 772 inhabitants of Komi Republic. It was shown that there is a significant shift to prevalence of late chronotype among inhabitants of the North. Thus, increase in rate of persons with late chronotype, circadian system of which is most sensitive to negative action climatic and social factors of the North, can be one of the causes of its desynchronization and increasing in risk of age-associated diseases at northerners.

Abstract
Effects of UV-B (280-315 nm) and UV-C (254 nm) at various doses upon callus of bladder campion (Silene vulgaris (M.) G. were studied. It was revealed that UV irradiation results in the decrease in arabinose and galactose residues in the silenan--the pectin fraction isolated from callus. The silenan possesses antioxidant activity (AOA) as assessed by the reaction with a stable radical. At the irradiation of callus by UV, the AOA of the silenan and the relative content of phenolic compounds in it increased; the highest increase was observed after the irradiation of callus by UV-B. Positive correlation between the AOA of the pectin fraction and an increase in phenolic compounds was revealed. This evidences that the AOA of the silenan relates to and is partially determined by phenolic compounds in its composition. The UV irradiation may be used as a tool to modify the structural features of the cell walls' polysaccharides in order to produce physiologically-active polysaccharides with desired properties.

Abstract
Pulse character of hormones secretion in the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonads system is a necessary condition of physiological regulation of reproduction. At the same time, the rhythms of ovarian hormones secretion have not been adequately explored. The researches study mainly three sexually mature ewes. The stages of oestrus cycle were determined on behavioral reactions of females in the presence of ram. Blood samples from jugular vein were collected hourly over 24-hour period during follicular (15-16 days), early (3-4 days) and middle (7-9 days) luteal phase of oestrus cycle, pregnancy (40-105 days) and lactation (30-45 days). 27 experiments were performed. Plasma progesterone was determined by enzyme-immunoassay method. There was no diurnal rhythm of ovarian progesterone secretion in ewes. During early and middle luteal phase of oestrus cycle and lactation, an 8-hour rhythm of progesterone secretion was detected. Follicular phase of oestrus cycle and pregnancy were characterized by irregular rises of fluctuations of progesterone level. It seems that the 8-hour rhythm of progesterone secretion during luteal phase and lactation is controlled by action of intraovarian generator of ultradian rhythms.

Abstract
The results of our previous experiments indicate that total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of human saliva has a distinct circadian rhythm with maximum in the night and minimum in the daytime. The decrease of amplitude and other parameters of circadian rhythm of TAC of saliva in summer is marked. The aim of the present study was to evaluate an effect of light at night and exogenous melatonin (MT) on this parameter. There were 6 participants in experiments, at which 28 circadian rhythms have been analysed. The method of coulometric titration was used for measuring TAC of saliva. Light at night significantly decreases amplitude (P<0.001) and exogenous MT increases the level of AUC (P<0.05) and mesor (P<0.05). MT in vitro has a highest antioxidant activity among water soluble antioxidants tested (MT, quercetin, ascorbat, mitophen, white lignin, rutin). Pharmacological quantities of MT (0.1%) increases TAC of saliva in vitro as high as three times. The results of calculations indicate that specific TAC of MT is not enough to explain increase in TAC of saliva in vivo conditions. Consequently, MT stimulates biosynthesis and/or redistribution of low-molecular weight antioxidants in the human organism.

Abstract
In the inhabitants of the North during increase of geomagnetic activity and during magnetic calm the decrease of amplitude of circadian rhythm of total antioxidant capacity of saliva is observed. The most favorable conditions to display the circadian rhythm are observed at Kp from 0,5 up to 2. The long residing in the North is connected to influence of irregularly varying geomagnetic activity causing disturbance of function of circadian and antioxidant systems that, probably, is one of the reasons of acceleration of process of aging at northerner and of higher risk of occurrence in them the age associated diseases.

Abstract
Antioxidant status of ewe's blood during pregnancy and lactation was studied. It is revealed that the lipid peroxidation in erythrocytes is decreased, whereas in blood plasma is increased in the middle pregnancy, reaching the maximum shortly before peak of progesterone production. The activities of antioxidant enzymes are increased at the end of pregnancy, when the level of progesterone in blood is maximal. The positive correlation between plasma progesterone level and activity of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (p < 0.01), between plasma cortisol concentration and total antioxidant capacity of blood plasma (p < 0.05) are revealed. It is shown, that the activities of antioxidant enzymes reach a maximum in the critical periods of pregnancy, providing the protection of the maternal organism and the fetus against negative influence of free radicals. The positive correlation between a level of hormones and separate parameters of antioxidant system in blood allows to assume, that progesterone participates in the regulation of enzymatic part of the antioxidant system, while cortisol is implicated in the regulation of the non-enzymatic component of this system in ewes.

Abstract
In chronic experiments on pregnant and lactating sheeps with large fistula of rumen the dynamics of progesterone transport in a cavity of temporarily isolated reticulo-rumen depending on a physiological condition of animals, composition of solution filling a cavity of organ, and time of incubation, were studied. On three animals, 24 experiments were carried out. It was established that, during pregnancy, in a cavity of reticulo-rumen more progesterone was transported than during lactation (p < 0.05). Addition of lignin and cellulose to the salt solution increased the progesterone transport in the cavity of reticulo-rumen (p < 0.001). During three-hour incubation of salt solution in the cavity of reticulo-rumen, an increase of progesterone transport was observed in cavity of the organ (p < 0.001). The data obtained confirm the assumption that forestomach of ruminants participates in removing of progesterone from internal environment to enteral one and that carbohydrate polymers facilitate this process.

Abstract
Earlier, we established a relationship between sex hormone receptor concentration in tumor and 5-year survival, on the one hand, and seasonality, on the other. The parameters showed a distinct 6-month cycle. That pointed to certain environmental factors which could synchronize hormone-dependent tumor process in the breast of women living in the North. The present study is concerned with a relationship of 6-month rhythm of tumor growth and latitude of residence. Said rhythm was reliably identified as a parameter of 5-year survival in the Far North (68 deg. northern latitude, p < 0.001). Maximum values of 5-year survival were registered in those diagnosed with cancer in winter or summer, while those diagnosed in spring or fall had unfavorable prognosis. Northern magnetic storms recur at 6-month intervals and most frequently in spring and fall. Electromagnetic radiation is known to suppress melatonin production and, that might have stimulated tumor process. Therefore, it is most likely that solar electromagnetic radiation might synchronize hormone-dependent tumor process in women resident in the North.

Abstract
Data on content of fiber, lignin and progesterone in reticulo-ruminal chyme and progesterone in blood serum and saliva of sheep throughout the reproductive cycle and at intramuscular injection of progesterone, are presented. A direct correlation between concentration of progesterone in blood and chyme was revealed. 1.5% of progesterone entered the reticulo-rumen with saliva. Transport of hormone through the wall of forestomach is the main way of progesterone entering the reticulo-rumen. The transport is carried out against the gradient of hormone concentration. Possible participation of progesterone adsorption on lignin in explanation of this transport, is discussed.

Abstract
According to the classic model of regulation of sex hormone receptors biosynthesis in target tissues, oestrogen stimulates and progesterone inhibits biosynthesis in both receptors. One of the consequences of this model is a direct correlation between oestrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) in target tissues. Here we investigate a correlation between ER and PR in calf endometrium and breast cancer (BC) tissues of women. A direct correlation was found between receptors in the calf endometrium (r = +0.70; p < 0.01). There were three variants of BC tissues: without correlation, with positive correlation (r = +0.49; p < 0.01), and with non-linear negative correlation between ER and PR. The last variant of samples were detected exclusively in patients operated in spring and fall. The non-linear negative correlation between ER and PR in BC tissues in spring and fall may indicate disregulation of sex hormone receptors biosynthesis under the influence of external factors.
