SummaryThe partial amino acid sequences of fibrinogen Aα-chains from five mammalian species have been inferred by means of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). From the genomic DNA of the rhesus monkey, pig, dog, mouse and Syrian hamster, the DNA fragments coding for α-C domains in the Aα-chains were amplified and sequenced. In all species examined, four cysteine residues were always conserved at the homologous positions. The carboxy- and amino-terminal portions of the α-C domains showed a considerable homology among the species. However, the sizes of the middle portions, which corresponded to the internal repeat structures, showed an apparent variability because of several insertions and/or deletions. In the rhesus monkey, pig, mouse and Syrian hamster, 13 amino acid tandem repeats fundamentally similar to those in humans and the rat were identified. In the dog, however, tandem repeats were found to consist of 18 amino acids, suggesting an independent multiplication of the canine repeats. The sites of the α-chain cross-linking acceptor and α2-plasmin inhibitor cross-linking donor were not always evolutionally conserved. The arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence was not found in the amplified region of either the rhesus monkey or the pig. In the canine α-C domain, two RGD sequences were identified at the homologous positions to both rat and human RGD S. In the Syrian hamster, a single RGD sequence was found at the same position to that of the rat. Triplication of the RGD sequences was seen in the murine fibrinogen α-C domain around the homologous site to the rat RGDS sequence. These findings are of some interest from the point of view of structure-function and evolutionary relationships in the mammalian fibrinogen Aα-chains.

Postoperative Lung Function

Routine diagnostic methods have limitations in terms of predicting the ventilation function of the lungs before and after surgery. It was decided to investigate the possibilities of dual-energy CT (DECT) using xenon in assessment of lung ventilation function.Objective: to master the methods of examination of patients with pulmonary pathology, evaluate the possibility of justifying the volume of operative intervention and prediction of postoperative lung function based on the hybrid images.Materials and methods. For the study, 12 patients with different pulmonary pathologies were selected (COPD – 5, lung cancer – 4, bronchiectasis – 3). Results. It was found that the use of DECT with xenon reflects the functional state of lung tissue.Conclusions. DECT with xenon have potential for planning surgical intervention and introducing the method into modern protocols of preoperative preparation.
