Abstract
INTRODUCTION Antioxidants such as lycopene (LCP) and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) represent ideal molecules for the treatment of different reactive oxygen species (ROS) associated disorders. Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent, causing an increase in ROS and DNA damage, with numerous side effects, which include lung toxicity. In the presents study, we evaluated and mutually compared the potential of LCP and CAPE in preventing cisplatin-induced rat lung damage. METHODS The study was done using pathohistological analysis and a panel of biochemical parameters that reflect lung oxidative tissue damage, inflammation, and apoptosis. RESULTS The obtained results suggest that cisplatin (10 mg/kg) causes significant disturbances in the lung tissue morphology, followed by an increase in lipid peroxidization and protein modification. Also, a pronounced inflammatory response and cell apoptosis cascade activation was noted. Both LCP and CAPE were able to mitigate the changes, to a different extent, in oxidative damage and apoptosis progression induced by cisplatin. However, they both had limited effect on inflammation since they only prevented an increase in myeloperoxidase activity but had not been able to prevent the NO generation. CONCLUSION It is hard to be exact in saying whether LCP or CAPE is better in preventing cis-platin-induced lung damage since they obviously possess different mechanisms of action.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Menstruation was presented as a result of inflammatory process. The total and relative numbers of the endometrial immunocompetitive cells vary during the different phases of the menstrual cycle. The aim of this morphological study is to make a contribution to understanding different distribution of leukocyte types during proliferative and secretory phase of normal menstrual cycle. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 40 women (20 in proliferative and 20 in secretory phase of the menstrual cycle). Exploratory curettage performed as preoperative preparation due to uterine myomas. Immunophenotyping was performed by immunoalkaline phosphatase (APAAP) using monoclonal antibodies: CD15, CD20, CD30, CD45RO, CD56, CD57 and CD68. The results were statistically analysed using SPSS 20.0 software. RESULTS Natural killer (NK) cells are dominant during secretory, and CD45RO T lymphocytes are dominant during proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. During the secretory phase of menstrual cycle, leukocytes make 30% of total endometrial cells. NK cells (CD56+ bright subpopulation), activated T lymphocytes, macrophages and B lymphocytes significantly increase in their number during the secretory phase of menstrual cycle. CONCLUSIONS Significant changes in endometrial leukocyte populations during proliferative and secretory phase of the menstrual cycle are emphasized. Changes in dominance of different leukocyte subpopulations are determined by hormonal and microenvironmental changes in modulatory factors that have not yet been fully explained.

Abstract
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have been acknowledged as first-line agents for the treatment of hypertension and a variety of cardiovascular disorders. In this context, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models for a series of non-peptide compounds as ACE inhibitors are developed based on Simplified Molecular Input-Line Entry System (SMILES) notation and local graph invariants. Three random splits into the training and test sets are used. The Monte Carlo method is applied for model development. Molecular docking studies are used for the final assessment of the developed QSAR model and the design of novel inhibitors. The statistical quality of the developed model is good. Molecular fragments responsible for the increase/decrease of the studied activity are calculated. The computer-aided design of new compounds, as potential ACE inhibitors, is presented. The predictive potential of the applied approach is tested, and the robustness of the model is proven using different methods. The results obtained from molecular docking studies are in excellent correlation with the results from QSAR studies. The presented study may be useful in the search for novel cardiovascular therapeutics based on ACE inhibition.

Abstract
Up to this date, there has been an ongoing debate about the mode of action of general anesthetics, which have postulated many biological sites as targets for their action. However, postoperative nausea and vomiting are common problems in which inhalational agents may have a role in their development. When a mode of action is unknown, QSAR modelling is essential in drug development. To investigate the aspects of their anesthetic, QSAR models based on the Monte Carlo method were developed for a set of polyhalogenated ethers. Until now, their anesthetic action has not been completely defined, although some hypotheses have been suggested. Therefore, a QSAR model should be developed on molecular fragments that contribute to anesthetic action. QSAR models were built on the basis of optimal molecular descriptors based on the SMILES notation and local graph invariants, whereas the Monte Carlo optimization method with three random splits into the training and test set was applied for model development. Different methods, including novel Index of ideality correlation, were applied for the determination of the robustness of the model and its predictive potential. The Monte Carlo optimization process was capable of being an efficient in silico tool for building up a robust model of good statistical quality. Molecular fragments which have both positive and negative influence on anesthetic action were determined. The presented study can be useful in the search for novel anesthetics.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary and metastatic malignant melanomas represent a rare diagnosis with a small number of described cases. The aggressive nature of the tumor, non-specific symptoms, difficult diagnosis, and no official protocol about the treatment result in poor disease prognosis. CASE OUTLINE The authors presented a 41-year-old multigravida patient. She had an operation of malignant melanoma in the occipital area of the head. She went to her gynecologist because of increased pale pink vaginal secretion. Gynecological examination didn’t show any significant abnormalities apart from a slightly enlarged uterus. Papanicolaou test and vaginal secretion examination were normal. Colposcopically, a significant dark brown hyperpigmented area around 1 cm in size was observed on the posterior lip of the cervix, near the orifice and cervical canal, suspicious of melanoma, which was proven on targeted biopsy of the hyperpigmented change on the cervix, and by magnetic resonance imaging of the lesser pelvis. Classic hysterectomy with adnexectomy and regional pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed. CONCLUSION This case report pointed out the significance of applying colposcopy in diagnosing suspected metastatic melanoma of the uterine cervix, along with other diagnostic methods and anamnestic data.
