В статье проведен обзор специфической сферы деятельности сотрудников и выпускников Черно- вицкого медицинского института – их участие в оказании помощи странам «третьего мира» на начальном этапе сущест- вования учебного заведения. Среди медиков, которые были командированы за границу, упомянуты Осипов Б.К., Кантор О.А., Закрывидорога С.П., Петросян Н.Г., Мохунь І.К., Липковский В.П., Черевко С.А., Анипко А.П., Шкварюк М.С., Ходоровский Г.І., Синчук О.М., Гайдичук С.Т., Трефаненко А.Г., Трефаненко С.П., Щербак В.В., Гайко Г.В., Заболотный М.С., Васильева О.Г., Кравец А.А. и др. Целью исследования является освещение этой страницы в истории БГМУ в хро- нологических рамках первого 30-летия его деятельности. Актуальность работы продиктована приближением 75-летия БГМУ, где главная роль принадлежит ее сотрудникам разных поколений. А выбор хронологических рамок находится в канве предыдущих статей авторов, в которых они попытались осветить наименее изученный период истории университе- та. Методика работы основана на анализе архивных, библиографических материалов, мемуарной литературы, синтезе разрозненных данных из разных источников. Выводы. В русле внешней политики СССР, которая предполагала одновре- менно с другими видами помощи развивающимся странам и помощь высококвалифицированными медицинскими кадра- ми, ряд сотрудников и выпускников Черновицкого медицинского института были командированы за границу. Все они были специалистами высокого класса в своей отрасли медицины, в большинстве случаев имели ученую степень кандида- та медицинских наук, владели иностранными языками. Они показали себя настоящими врачами и преподавателями, ко- торые честно выполняли клятву Гиппократа в сложных для европейцев климатических условиях работы. Они продолжа- ли свою исследовательскую работу, консультировали и лечили людей, принимали участие в подготовке местных кадров, пропагандировали медицинские знания, публиковали результаты своих научных поисков в зарубежных изданиях. Подоб- ная деятельность содействовала интеллектуальному самообогащению, повышению профессионального мастерства и педагогических навыков. Наши специалисты достойно представляли Родину за рубежом.The article reviews the specific field of activity of the staff and graduat- es of the Chernivtsi Medical Institute and their participation in helping the countries of the "third world" at the initial stage of the existence of an educational institution. Among the doctors who had been sent abroad were mentioned Osipov B.K., Kantor O.A., Zakr- yvydoroga S.P., Petrosyan N.G., Mokhun I.K., Lipkovsky V.P., Cherevko S.A. , Anipko AP, Shkvaruk MS, Khodorovsky G.I., Sinchuk O.M., Haidychuk S.T., Trefanenko AG, Trefanenko SP, Shcherbak V.V., Hayko GV, Zabolotniy MS, Vasiliev O.G., Krav- ets AA etc. The purpose of the study is to integrate the descripti- on of this historical period of BSMI in the chronological framewo- rk of the first 30th anniversary of its activities. Its relevance is dictated by the approaching 75th anniversary of the BSMU, in which the main role belongs to its employees of different generat- ions. And the choice of the chronological framework of the article was made by the previous articles basis of the authors, in which they tried to highlight the least studied period of the existence of the CHESMI. In addition, the authors of the article suppose that the intellectual potential of Ukraine is one of the country's greatest wealth. The method of work is based on the analysis of archival, bibliographic materials, memoirs, synthesis of data from various sources. Conclusions. In line with the foreign policy of the USSR, which included, along with other forms of assistance to the "Third World" countries and assistance to highly qualified medical stuff, a number of staff and graduates of the Chernivtsi Medical Institute were sent abroad. All of them were specialists of high quality in their medical areas, most of them had scientific degrees of candida- tes of medical sciences, they possessed foreign languages. They also became selfmade doctors and teachers, who honestly perform- ed the Hippocratic oath in the extreme weather conditions for Euro- peans. They continued research work, counseled and treated peop- le, participated in the training of local staff, in advocating for medi- cal knowledge among the population of the "Third World" countri- es. The results of research conducted in the countries of their busi- ness trip, were published materials in foreign publications. This activity promoted intellectual self-enrichment, increased professio- nal skills and pedagogical skills. They duly represented their homeland abroad.Date

Aggravation of chronic stress effects on hippocampal neurogenesis and spatial memory in LPA₁ receptor knockout mice.Castilla-Ortega, Estela; Hoyo-Becerra, Carolina; Pedraza, Carmen; Chun, Jerold; Rodríguez De Fonseca, Fernando; Estivill-Torrús, Guillermo; Santín, Luis J (Public Library of Science, 2012-12-10)BACKGROUND The lysophosphatidic acid LPA₁ receptor regulates plasticity and neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus. Here, we studied whether absence of the LPA₁ receptor modulated the detrimental effects of chronic stress on hippocampal neurogenesis and spatial memory. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Male LPA₁-null (NULL) and wild-type (WT) mice were assigned to control or chronic stress conditions (21 days of restraint, 3 h/day). Immunohistochemistry for bromodeoxyuridine and endogenous markers was performed to examine hippocampal cell proliferation, survival, number and maturation of young neurons, hippocampal structure and apoptosis in the hippocampus. Corticosterone levels were measured in another a separate cohort of mice. Finally, the hole-board test assessed spatial reference and working memory. Under control conditions, NULL mice showed reduced cell proliferation, a defective population of young neurons, reduced hippocampal volume and moderate spatial memory deficits. However, the primary result is that chronic stress impaired hippocampal neurogenesis in NULLs more severely than in WT mice in terms of cell proliferation; apoptosis; the number and maturation of young neurons; and both the volume and neuronal density in the granular zone. Only stressed NULLs presented hypocortisolemia. Moreover, a dramatic deficit in spatial reference memory consolidation was observed in chronically stressed NULL mice, which was in contrast to the minor effect observed in stressed WT mice. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE These results reveal that the absence of the LPA₁ receptor aggravates the chronic stress-induced impairment to hippocampal neurogenesis and its dependent functions. Thus, modulation of the LPA₁ receptor pathway may be of interest with respect to the treatment of stress-induced hippocampal pathology.

A comparative study of dyslipidaemia in men and woman with androgenic alopeciaArias-Santiago, Salvador; Gutierrez-Salmeron, Maria Teresa; Buendia-Eisman, Agustin; Giron-Prieto, Maria Sierra; Naranjo-Sintes, Ramon (Society for the Publication of Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2011-12-21)Several studies have analyzed the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and cardiovascular disease (mainly heart disease). However few studies have analyzed lipid values in men and women separately. This case-control study included 300 patients consecutively admitted to an outpatient clinic, 150 with early onset androgenetic alopecia (80 males and 70 females) and 150 controls (80 males and 70 females) with other skin diseases. Female patients with androgenic alopecia showed significant higher triglycerides values (123.8 vs 89.43 mg/dl, p = 0.006), total cholesterol values (196.1 vs 182.3 mg/dl, p = 0.014), LDL-C values (114.1 vs 98.8 mg/dl, p = 0.0006) and lower HDL-C values (56.8 vs 67.7 mg/dl, p <0.0001) versus controls respectively. Men with androgenic alopecia showed significant higher triglycerides values (159.7 vs 128.7 mg/dl, p = 0.04) total cholesterol values (198.3 vs 181.4 mg/dl, p = 0.006) and LDL-C values (124.3 vs 106.2, p = 0.0013) versus non-alopecic men. A higher prevalence of dyslipidemia in women and men with androgenic alopecia has been found. The elevated lipid values in these patients may contribute, alongside other mechanisms, to the development of cardiovascular disease in patient with androgenic alopecia.

Life-long environmental enrichment counteracts spatial learning, reference and working memory deficits in middle-aged rats subjected to perinatal asphyxia.Galeano, Pablo; Blanco, Eduardo; Logica Tornatore, Tamara M A; Romero, Juan I; Holubiec, Mariana I; Rodríguez de Fonseca, Fernando; Capani, Francisco (Frontiers Media, 2016-08-09)Continuous environmental stimulation induced by exposure to enriched environment (EE) has yielded cognitive benefits in different models of brain injury. Perinatal asphyxia results from a lack of oxygen supply to the fetus and is associated with long-lasting neurological deficits. However, the effects of EE in middle-aged rats suffering perinatal asphyxia are unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess whether life-long exposure to EE could counteract the cognitive and behavioral alterations in middle-aged asphyctic rats. Experimental groups consisted of rats born vaginally (CTL), by cesarean section (C+), or by C+ following 19 min of asphyxia at birth (PA). At weaning, rats were assigned to standard (SE) or enriched environment (EE) for 18 months. During the last month of housing, animals were submitted to a behavioral test battery including Elevated Plus Maze, Open Field, Novel Object Recognition and Morris water maze (MWM). Results showed that middle-aged asphyctic rats, reared in SE, exhibited an impaired performance in the spatial reference and working memory versions of the MWM. EE was able to counteract these cognitive impairments. Moreover, EE improved the spatial learning performance of middle-aged CTL and C+ rats. On the other hand, all groups reared in SE did not differ in locomotor activity and anxiety levels, while EE reduced locomotion and anxiety, regardless of birth condition. Recognition memory was altered neither by birth condition nor by housing environment. These results support the importance of environmental stimulation across the lifespan to prevent cognitive deficits induced by perinatal asphyxia.
