Abstract
A new original copper nanocomposite based on poly-N-vinylimidazole was synthesized and characterized by a complex of modern physicochemical and biological methods. The low cytotoxicity of the copper nanocomposite in relation to the cultured hepatocyte cells was found. The possibility to involve the copper from the nanocomposite in the functioning of the copper-dependent enzyme systems was evaluated during the incubation of the hepatocyte culture with this nanocomposite introduced to the nutrient medium. The synthesized new water-soluble copper-containing nanocomposite is promising for biotechnological and biomedical research as a new non-toxic hydrophilic preparation that is allowed to regulate the work of key enzymes involved in energy metabolism and antioxidant protection as well as potentially serving as an additional source of copper.

Immunohistochemical Study of the Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-2 (KDR/Flk-1) during Myocardial Infarction. Bull Exp Biol Med 2017; 163:500-505. [PMID: 28853068 DOI: 10.1007/s10517-017-3838-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2016] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Immunohistochemical study showed that vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (KDR/Flk-1) is expressed in the cytoplasm of viable cardiomyocytes, mononuclear cells of the granulation tissue, and smooth muscle cells of intramural arteries at all terms of postinfarction reparative regeneration. Cardiomyocytes were highly heterogeneous by the intensity of staining. This feature was typical of cardiomyocytes in the ischemic area (no staining), as well as within various muscle bundles and one muscle bundle. KDR/Flk-1 expression was revealed in mononuclear cells of the necrotic area (macrophages and fibroblast cells). The distribution of KDR/Flk-1 remained practically unchanged with lengthening of the postinfarction period (more than 7 days). The increase in the heterogeneity of cardiomyocyte staining under these conditions illustrates variations in the intensity of cytoprotective processes during ischemia. KDR/Flk-1 expression in smooth muscle cells of intramural arteries was shown to increase in a later period of observations.
