AB  - Background: The influence of homeostatically regulated physiological processes, including cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2max), on the response to physical stressors such as acclimatisation and marching, remains understudied. We aimed to investigate the effects of summer and winter acclimatisation and marching on cortisol levels and blood lactate, to gain insight into the role of these physiological processes in the stress response. Methods: Two groups of young Europeans, classified as poor (PCF; n=9) and good physical condition (GCF; n=21), based on a VO2max threshold of 40 mL O2/ kg/min, underwent 2-h march (6–7 km/h) in winter (5 ∘C) and summer (32 ∘C). Commercial tests, UniCel DxI Access Cortisol assay and EKF Biosen Clinic/GP assay were used for cortisol and lactate blood measurements (morning samples and those taken immediately after marches), respectively. Results: Basal cortisol levels were significantly higher at 5 °C than at 32 °C (PCF group: P=0.0079; cortisol dropped after the march at 5 °C in both groups, but increased at 32 °C only in PCF. Basal lactate levels were higher at 32 °C only in the GCF group (compared to PCF, P=0.0014) and post-marching (compared to basal values, P=0.0002). Conclusion: Cold exposure elicits a more significant stress response, based on higher basal cortisol levels, in individuals with worse physical fitness. Anaerobe metabolism prevails in participants with better physical fitness exposed to high ambient temperature based on increased basal and post-marching lactate levels. The study is significant for individual training/performance optimisation as it indicates the association between physiological stress responses and individual physical fitness levels.

U uzorcima krvi (jutarnji i neposredno nakon mar{a) su odre|ivani nivoi kortizola i laktata komercijalnim testovima, UniCel DxI Access Cortisol i EKF Biosen Clinic/GP. Rezultati: Bazalni nivoi kortizola su bili zna~ajno vi{i na 5 °C nego na 32 °C (u PCF grupi: P=0,0079); nakon mar{i- ranja na 5 °C kortizol opada u obe grupe a pove}an je na 32 °C samo u PCF grupi.

AB  - Background: The cannabis plant or marijuana has been used since ancient times for different purposes. An increase in the content of THC in cannabis has been observed worldwide, whereas the CBD content is dropping. This study’s main goal was to categorize marijuana suspected policies’ seizures (MSPS) based on the cannabinoid component concentrations concerning their potency and age. Methods: The samples were MSPS seized in southeast Serbia from April 2019 to April 2020. The cannabinoid content was determined using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. Descriptive statistics were performed using Linux LibreOffice Calc. Results: All of the samples had a THC content higher than 0.3%, thus classifying the samples as marijuana according to the Serbian Law on Psychoactive Controlled Substances. The highest concentration of THC was 16.10%, while the lowest was 4.90%. The highest average concentration of THC (12.39%) was found in the buds. Only 11.81% of the samples had a CBD concentration higher than 1%, making all other marijuana samples extremely psychoactive. Most of the samples were older than 2 years, according to the calculated CBN/THC ratio. Conclusion: Our results confirm trends regarding the dominance of THC content in contemporary cannabis worldwide. It is necessary to monitor trends of cannabis potency in Serbia continuously because of its location.

AB  - Background/Aim. Recent studies indicate that adipokines have an important role in bone physiology and pathology. Recent data indicate that adipokine leptin functions as a regulator of bone growth at multiple levels, systemically and locally. So far, it has been shown that leptin influences bone volume and bone mineral density in a population with metabolic and/or hormonal abnormality. Data concerning leptin values in non-obese children with fractures are scarce. Methods. This study included 93 non-obese children with long bone fractures (LBF), 14 children with short bone fractures (SBF), and 19 healthy children. Leptin concentration was determined in two blood samples (day 0 and day 21) and analyzed according to gender, fracture type, anatomical localization of the fracture, fracture topography, callus formation, and the healing outcome. Results. Children with LBF demonstrated significantly increased leptin levels compared to the control group (both day 0/day 21). In the control group, girls had significantly more leptin than boys. Leptin value was significantly influenced by anatomical localization since boys and girls with humerus fracture and girls with femur fracture had the highest average leptin concentration in the initial sample. Boys with incomplete callus formation had the highest leptin concentration (both day 0/day 21), significantly elevated compared to boys' samples in the control group, boys' samples with an intermediary and well-formed callus, and also increased compared to the initial samples of girls with incomplete callus. Better callus formation in girls was associated with an increment of leptin concentrations in the second over the initial sample. Girls with partially and satisfactorily formed callus had significantly increased leptin concentration in the second sample (day 21) compared to the boys' group. Conclusion. Leptin concentration was significantly increased (both samples) in children with LBF compared to children with SBF and corresponding controls. Leptin concentration was highly influenced by gender. High blood leptin concentrations in boys or low leptin concentrations in girls immediately upon fracture could be used to identify groups of children with incomplete callus formation.

AB  - Dental caries and periodontitis are among the most common health conditions that are currently recognized as growing socio-economic problems relating to their increasing prevalence, negative socio-economic impact, and harmful effects on systemic health. So far, the exact effects of caries and standard restorative materials on periodontal inflammatory and oxidative status are not established. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of caries and its restoration using standard temporary and permanent filling materials on a panel of 16 inflammatory and oxidative markers in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of periodontally healthy individuals, 7 (D7) and 30 (D30) days post-restoration, while the intact teeth represented the control. One hundred ninety systemically and periodontally healthy patients with occlusal caries underwent standard cavity preparation and restorations with one of six standard temporary or permanent restorative material according to indication and randomization scheme. Interleukin (IL)-2, IFN- g, IL-12, IL-17A, IL-13, IL-9, IL-10, IL-6, IL-5, IL-4, IL-22, TNF-a, IL1- b, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, superoxide dismutase, and reduced form of glutathione were measured in GCF samples by flowcytometry and spectrophotometry in aid of commercial diagnostic assays. Caries affected teeth exhibited significantly increased IL-1 b, IL-17, IL- 22, and TBARS and decreased IL-9 concentrations compared to healthy controls. Treatment generally resulted in an increased antioxidant capacity with exception of zinc-polycarboxylate cement showing distinctive inflammatory pattern. Comparison of inflammatory and oxidative profiles in temporary and permanent restorations showed material-specific patterning which was particularly expressed in temporary materials plausibly related to greater caries extension. Caries affected teeth exhibited a balanced inflammatory pattern in GCF, with a general tendency of homeostatic re-establishment following treatment. Restorative materials did not provide specific pathological effects, although some material groups did exhibit significantly elevated levels of inflammatory and oxidative markers compared to healthy controls, while the material-specific patterning was observed as well.

AB  - Background/Aim. Exposure  of  living  organisms  to  γ- radiation results in the overproduction of free radicals. The  aim of the study was to test if the subacute administration  of micronized zeolite (MZC) accomplishes radioprotective  role based on the evaluation of the status of oxidative stress  (OS) in the brain and 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OH-dG)  in  the plasma of the rats exposed to the single γ-ray irradiation  of 2 and/or 10 Gray (Gy). Methods. Wistar rats were on a  four-week normal or 5% MZC supplemented diet and af- terward exposed to the single γ-ray irradiation  of 2 and 10  Gy. Groups of rats were: a) on a normal diet (the control  group, and 2Gy and 10Gy groups); b) on 5% MZC supple- mented diet (the control group –  MZC, MZC  +  2Gy, and  MZC + 10Gy  groups).  We  measured  malondialdehyde  (MDA), glutathione (GSH) total, and activity of total super- oxide  dismutase  (tSOD)  and  manganese  superoxide  dis- mutase (MnSOD)  in vulnerable brain regions (cerebellum,  hippocampus, and cerebral cortex) and 8-OH-dG in plasma.  Results.  Lower MDA was found in the MZC+2Gy and  MZC+10Gy  groups  compared  to  the  2Gy  and  10Gy  groups.  Activity  od  total  SOD  was  higher  in  the  MZC+10Gy group  than in the 10Gy  one. GSH was the  highest in the 10Gy group. Compared to the control group,  8-OH-dG was extremely higher in groups radiated with 10  Gy regardless of a diet, but slightly lower in the MZC+2Gy  and 2Gy groups. Conclusion. Subacute MZC pretreatment  accomplished partial radioprotective effect in irradiated rats  compared to non-irradiated rats, based on suppressed SOD  activity at 2 Gy, and reduced brain MDA when exposed to 2  Gy and 10 Gy.

AB  - Cortical theta burst stimulation (TBS) structured as intermittent (iTBS) and continuous (cTBS)could prevent the progression of the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). The interplayof brain antioxidant defense systems against free radicals (FRs) overproduction induced by EAE,as well as during iTBS or cTBS, have not been entirely investigated.  This study aimed to examinewhether oxidative-nitrogen stress (ONS) is one of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms ofEAE, which may be changed in terms of health improvement by iTBS or cTBS. Dark Agouti strainfemale rats were tested for the effects of EAE and TBS. The rats were randomly divided into the controlgroup, rats specifically immunized for EAE and nonspecifically immuno-stimulated with CompleteFreund’s adjuvant. TBS or sham TBS was applied to EAE rats from 14th–24th post-immunizationday. Superoxide dismutase activity, levels of superoxide anion (O2•–), lipid peroxidation, glutathione(GSH), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR)activity were analyzed in rat spinal cords homogenates. The severity of EAE clinical coincided withthe climax of ONS. The most critical result refers to TrxR, which immensely responded against theapplied stressors of the central nervous system (CNS), including immunization and TBS. We foundthat the compensatory neuroprotective role of TrxR upregulation is a positive feedback mechanismthat reduces the harmfulness of ONS. iTBS and cTBS both modulate the biochemical environmentagainst ONS at a distance from the area of stimulation, alleviating symptoms of EAE. The results ofour study increase the understanding of FRs’ interplay and the role of Trx/TrxR in ONS-associatedneuroinflammatory diseases, such as EAE. Also, our results might help the development of new ideasfor designing more effective medical treatment, combining neuropsychological with noninvasiveneurostimulation–neuromodulation techniques to patients living with MS.

This study aimed to examinewhether oxidative-nitrogen stress (ONS) is one of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms ofEAE, which may be changed in terms of health improvement by iTBS or cTBS. Dark Agouti strainfemale rats were tested for the effects of EAE and TBS. The rats were randomly divided into the controlgroup, rats specifically immunized for EAE and nonspecifically immuno-stimulated with CompleteFreund’s adjuvant. TBS or sham TBS was applied to EAE rats from 14th–24th post-immunizationday. Superoxide dismutase activity, levels of superoxide anion (O2•–), lipid peroxidation, glutathione(GSH), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR)activity were analyzed in rat spinal cords homogenates. The severity of EAE clinical coincided withthe climax of ONS. The most critical result refers to TrxR, which immensely responded against theapplied stressors of the central nervous system (CNS), including immunization and TBS. We foundthat the compensatory neuroprotective role of TrxR upregulation is a positive feedback mechanismthat reduces the harmfulness of ONS. iTBS and cTBS both modulate the biochemical environmentagainst ONS at a distance from the area of stimulation, alleviating symptoms of EAE. The results ofour study increase the understanding of FRs’ interplay and the role of Trx/TrxR in ONS-associatedneuroinflammatory diseases, such as EAE. Also, our results might help the development of new ideasfor designing more effective medical treatment, combining neuropsychological with noninvasiveneurostimulation–neuromodulation techniques to patients living with MS.",

AB  - The initial steps in preclinical drug developing research concern the synthesis of new compounds for specific therapeutic use which needs to be confirmed by in vitro and then in vivo testing. Nine thiazolidinone derivatives (numerically labeled 1-9) classified as follows: 1,3-thiazole-based compounds (1 and 2); 1,3,4-thiadiazole based compounds (3 and 4); substituted 5-benzylideno-2-adamantylthiazol[3,2-b] [1,2,4] triazol-6(5H) ones (5-8); and an ethylaminothiazole-based chalcone (9), were tested for antioxidant activity (AOA) by using three in vitro assays: DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl scavenging capacity test); FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power test); and TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances test). Compounds 1-4 and 9 in particular are newly synthesized compounds. Also, traditional antioxidants Vitamins E and C and alpha-lipoic acid (alpha-LA) were tested. The results of DPPH testing: Vitamin C 94.35%, Vitamin E 2.99% and alpha-LA 1.57%; compounds: 4 33.98%; 2 18.73%; 1 15.62%; 5 6.59%; 3 4.99%; 6-9 demonstrated almost no AOA. The results of TBARS testing (% of LPO inhibition): Vitamin C 62.32%; Vitamin E 36.29%; alpha-LA 51.36%; compounds: 1 62.11%; 5 66.71%; 9 60.93%; 4, 6 and 7 demonstrated similar to 50%; 3 and 8 displayed similar to 38%; 2 23.51%. By FRAP method, Vitamins E and C showed equal AOA, similar to 100%, unlike alpha-LA (no AOA), and AOA of the tested compounds (expressed as a fraction of the AOA of Vitamin C) were: 2 and 4-75%; 8, 3 and 1-45%; 5-7 and 9-27%. Different red-ox reaction principles between these assays dictate different AOA outcomes for a single compound. Vitamin C appeared to be the superior antioxidant out of the traditional antioxidants; and compound 4 was superior to other tested thiazolidinone derivatives. Vitamin C appeared to be the superior antioxidant out of the traditional antioxidants; and compound 4 was superior to other tested thiazolidinone derivatives. Phenyl-functionalized benzylidene, amino-carbonyl functional domains and chelating ligand properties of the thiazolidinone derivatives correlated with AOA.

AB  - The objective of this prospective follow-up trial was to ascertain whether the urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (uKIM-1) associates with tumor tissue (tKIM-1) expression and with the pathological characteristics of clear renal cell carcinoma (cRCC) in radically nephrectomized (RN) and/or in partially nephrectomized (PN) patients with cRCC, pre- and postoperatively. This clinical study included 40 patients subjected to RN/PN (cRCC group) and 30 healthy volunteers (control group). Urinary KIM-1 was determined by ELISA TIM-1/KIM-1 kit and normalized by urinary creatinine. Immunohistochemical staining (monoclonal anti-human anti-TIM-1/KIM-1/HAVCR antibody) was used for semiquantitative analysis of the tKIM-1 expression and expressed as a score (% KIM-1 positively stained tubules). Both markers were interpreted in terms of the tumor characteristics comprising tumor size, Fuhrman grade, pathological (pT) stage, tumor/nodes/metastasis (TNM) stage, lymphovascular invasion and type of surgery RN/PN. Preoperative uKIM-1 was significantly higher in the cRCC group compared to controls, such as uKIM-1 was statistically higher in RN than in PN patients. Postoperatively, uKIM-1 decreased to control values. Expression of tKIM-1 was documented in all nephrectomized patients. Significant associations were achieved between uKIM-1 and tKIM-1 and with considered tumor characteristics, especially with tumor size and grade. Based on the accomplished associations, we found uKIM-1 as a highly sensitive marker for cRCC diagnosis. The clinical trial registration number: 1110-2012.

AB  - Biocompatibility of dental materials (DM) can be evaluated by gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) oxidative stress (OS) status. The goal of the study was to ascertain influence of dental caries degree, teeth position, and type and amount of applied DM on GCF OS profile. For this purpose, we tested six DMs that were sealed in one session: amalgam (Amg), composites: Tetric EvoCeram and Beautifil (BF), phosphate cement-zinc phosphate and polycarboxylate cements zinc polycarboxylate cements, and glass ionomer cement (GIC). The study included 88 dental outpatients. Follow-up was scheduled at 7th and 30th day. Oxidative stress parameters (malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels and total superoxide dismutase (tSOD) activity) were measured before (0th day) and after the treatment (7th and 30th day) in GCF. Control teeth were mirror-positioned healthy teeth. The DM accomplished the following effects (listed in descending order): increase of GSH in GCF was realized by ZPoC > BF > GIC > Amg; tSOD activity increase by ZPoC > BF > Amg; and MDA decrease by ZPoC > ZPhC > Amg > TEC. Dental caries provokes insignificant rise of OS in GCF. ZPoC and ZPhC showed the highest antioxidant effect, contrary to GIC. Restorations with antioxidant properties may reduce gum diseases initiated by caries lesion, what is of great clinical relevance in dentistry.

AB  - Background: Overproduction of free radicals accompanied with their insufficient removal/neutralization by antioxidative defense system impairs redox hemostasis in living organisms. Oxidative stress has been shown to be involved in all the stages of carcinogenesis and malignant melanocyte transformation. The aim of this study was to examine association between oxidative stress development and different stages of melanoma. Methods: The measured oxidative stress parameters included: superoxide anion radical, total and manganese superoxide dismutase, catalase and malondialdehyde. Oxidative stress parameters were measured spectrophotometrically in serum samples from melanoma patients (n=72) and healthy control subjects (n=30). Patients were classified according to AJCC clinical stage. Results: Average superoxide anion and malondialdehyde concentrations were significantly higher in melanoma patients than in control group, with the highest value of superoxide anion in stage III, while malondialdehyde highest value was in stage IV. The activity of total and manganese superoxide dismutase was insignificantly higher in melanoma patients than in control group, while catalase activity was significantly higher. The highest activity of total superoxide dismutase was in stage III, while the highest activity of manganese superoxide dismutase was in stage IV. Catalase activity was increasing with the disease progression achieving the maximum in stage III. Conclusions: Results of our study suggest that melanoma is oxidative stress associated disease, as well as deteriorated cell functioning at mitochondrial level.

AB  - Introduction: The significance of oxidative stress in pathogenesis of childhood asthma was recognized, but its role in the clinical manifestations of disease is still unclear. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in 96 asthmatic children. The urinary biomarker of oxidative stress, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG/creatinine) was determined by using HPLC-MS/MS. ELISA was performed to measure myeloperoxidase (MPO) and Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD) in serum. Results: Logistic regression analysis revealed that female gender, tobacco smoke exposure, and increased 8-oxodG/creatinine were associated with risk for intermittent asthma, while the positive allergy test and increased Cu, Zn-SOD were associated with eczema in asthmatic children. Higher MPO (p = 0.033), and percent of granulocytes (p = 0.030) were found in severe persistent asthma in comparison to intermittent or mild persistent asthma. Conclusion: The main findings that TSE-induced oxidative stress is a risk for intermittent asthma and eczema may be clinically significant for the disease prevention and therapeutic improvements.

AB  - The aim of the study was to investigate if alcohol and disulfiram (DSF) individually and in combination affect bioelements' and red-ox homeostasis in testes of the exposed rats. The animals were divided into groups according to the duration of treatments (21 and/or 42 days): C-21/C-42 groups (controls); OL21 and OL22-42 groups (0.5 mL olive oil intake); A(1-21) groups (3 mL 20% ethanol intake); DSF1-21 groups (178.5 mg DSF/kg/day intake); and A(21)+DSF22-42 groups (the DSF ingestion followed previous 21 days' treatment with alcohol). The measured parameters in testes included metals: zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg) and selenium (Se); as well as oxidative stress (OS) parameters: superoxide anion radical (O-2(center dot-)), glutathione reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG), malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) decomposition and activities of total superoxide dismutase (tSOD), glutathione-Stransferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR). Metal status was changed in all experimental groups (Fe rose, Zn fell, while Cu increased in A(21)+DSF24-32 groups). Development of OS was demonstrated in A(1-21) groups, but not in DSF1-21 groups. In A(21)+DSF22-42 groups, OS was partially reduced compared to A groups (A(1-21)>MDA>C; A(1-21) lt GSH lt C). High metal-binding affinity of DSF/DDTC changes red-ox homeostasis in rat testes.

AB  - Examination of cadmium (Cd) toxicity and disulfiram (DSF) effect on liver was focused on oxidative stress (OS), bioelements status, morphological and functional changes. Male Wistar rats were intraperitoneally treated with 1mg CdCl2/kg BW/day; orally with 178.5 mg DSF/kg BW/day for 1, 3, 10 and 21 days; and co-exposed from 22nd to 42nd day. The co-exposure nearly restored previously suppressed total superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and increased glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities; increased previously reduced glutathione reductase (GR) and total glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activities; reduced previously increased superoxide anion radical (O-2(center dot-)) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels; increased zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), and decreased copper (Cu) (yet above control value), while magnesium (Mg) was not affected; and decreased serum alanine aminotransferases (ALT) levels. Histopathological examination showed signs of inflammation process as previously demonstrated by exposure to Cd. Overall, we ascertained partial liver redox status improvement, compared with the formerly Cd-induced impact.

AB  - The aim of our work was to optimize and apply simple high-performance liquid chromatography method with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) for simultaneous determination of reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione in biological matrix (specifically, the rat liver tissue was used herein), since the ratio between oxidized and reduced glutathione forms (GSSG-GSH) has been recognized as an important biological marker of oxidatively depleted GSH in oxidative stress (OS)-associated diseases and poisonings. An isocratic chromatographic separation of GSH and GSSG (2.8 min and 6.3 min, respectively) was performed with the mobile phase consisted of sodium perchlorate solution (pH adjusted to 2.8) at flow rate of 1 mL min(-1), detection set at 215 nm, and column temperature of 40 degrees C. The method offers short run time, linearity in the range of 0.01-200 mu M concentration for both compounds (R-2 = 1), low limits of detection and quantification (GSH: 0.18 mu M and 0.56 mu M, GSSG: 0.52 mu M and 1.58 mu M, respectively), precision, accuracy (bias  lt 2%), and high reproducibility. Through suitable sample handling, an overestimation of GSSG was prevented. High recovery (>99%) was achieved. The method was successfully applied for the analysis of GSH and GSSG in liver homogenates of Wistar rats intraperitoneally exposed to cadmium (Cd) (1 mg kg(-1) CdCl2/21 days). Regardless of other Cd-mediated hepatotoxicity mechanisms, herein, we have exclusively interpreted/emphasized oxidative GSH depletion. The presented method is acceptable for a routine analysis of GSH and GSSG in biological matrix, while the calculated ratio GSSG-GSH is considered as a valuable OS marker.

The most active compounds 7m (MIC 0.13 mu M), 7o (MIC 0.15 mu M) and 7k (MIC 0.17 mu M) demonstrated antimycobacterial activity at submicromolar concentration level and remarkably minimal associated cytotoxicity in the human embryonic kidney cell line HEK-293T. Structure-activity relationship for this class of compounds has been established.

AB  - Background: Synthesized aminocoumarins are heterocyclic compounds possessing potential for the treatment of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with unexplored anti-glycative action. Results: In this study 4-aminocoumarin derivatives (4-ACDs) were evaluated in vitro for antiglycation (AG) activities by using the human serum albumin (HSA)/glucose system, for 8 weeks of incubation. The glycation and conformational alteration of HSA in the presence of the tested compounds were evaluated by Congo red assay, fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The antioxidant (AO) capacity were also tested by four different assays including: DPPH (2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical), ABTS (2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) diammonium salt), FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power) and beta-carotene-linoleic acid assay. The tested compounds showed AG and AO effects. The intensity of the accomplished AO potential is related to the type of the used assay. Significant alterations in the secondary (monitored by CD spectropolarimetry) and tertiary structure (assessed by spectrofluorimetry) of HSA upon glycation were mitigated by the 4-ACDs, suggesting their suppressive role in the late stage (post-Amadori) of the HSA glycation. Conclusions: By the analogues, in vitro ascertained AO and AG properties of 4-ACDmay be recognized as rationale for their protective role against oxidative changes of proteins, thereby precluding diabetic complications in humans.

AB  - Background/Aim. Survivin is a multifunctional protein abundantly expressed in tumors of various types, including melanoma. There are still sparse data regarding relationship of melanoma cell survivin expression with accepted histopathological characteristics as well as serum concentration. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of local tumor survivin expression (primary tumor and metastatic lesions) and serum concentration with clinical and histopathological parameters in melanoma patients. Methods. The level of survivin expression was determined immunocytochemically in tumor tissue and with ELISA test in the serum of 84 melanoma patients diagnosed from 2009 to 2013 at the Institute for Pathology and Forensic Medicine and Institute for Medical Research at Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia. Results. The intensity of survivin expression was significantly higher in the patients whose tumor had ulceration, higher mitotic index, higher Clark and Breslow stage, that made vascular invasion or spread through lymphatic vessels in primary tumor, and was significantly higher in the patients with metastatic disease. Survivin expression and the number of survivin positive cells in metastatic lesions were significantly associated with the duration of disease free interval (DFI). The patients with high expression score had almost double shorter DFI comparing to those with weak local survivin expression and a small number of surviving + cells (9 ± 7 vs 19 ± 13 months, respectively). The degree of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes presence in tumor tissue was significantly associated with serum survivin concentration, with lowest average level detected in samples of patients with the highest degree of infiltration. Serum survivin concentrations were highest in samples of melanoma patients with IA American Joint Commission on Cancer (AJCC) clinical stage, pT1a histological stage, patients whose tumors were still in horizontal growth phase, without signs of lympho-hematological disease spreading, with the highest number of mitoses and the smallest Clark index. Conclusion. Survivin expression in tumor tissue and its serum concetration significantly correlate with clinical and histopathological parameters. Serum levels could be important in initial follow-up as indicators of those patients that would have aggressive local tumor growth and spreading. Survivin determination in tumor tissue is of great significance in estimation of DFI.

Retki su radovi koji opisuju odnos ispoljavanja survivina u melanomskim ćelijama sa njegovom serumskom koncentracijom kao i sa histopatološkim karakteristikama melanoma. Cilj rada bio je da se ispita udruženost lokalne ekspresije survivina u tumoru (primarni tumor i metastatske promene) i serumske koncentracije sa kliničkim i histopatološkim parametrima kod bolesnika sa melanomom. Metode. Nivo ekspresije survivina određivan je imunocitohistohemijski utumorskom tkivu i ELISA testom u serumu 84 bolesnika sa melanomom, dijagnostikovanih u periodu od 2009. do 2013. na Institutu za patologiju i sudsku medicínu i Institutu za medicinska istraživanja na Vojnomedicinskoj akademiji, Beograd, Srbija. Rezultati. Intezitet ekspresije survivina bio je značajno veći kod bolesnika čiji su tumori bili ulcerisani, sa visokim mitotskim indeksom, visokim Clark i Breslow indeksom, sa prisutnom vaskularnom i limfnom invazijom, kao i kod onih sa metastatskom bolesti. Ispoljavanje survivina i broj survivin pozitivnih ćelija u metastatskim lezijama bio je značajno udružen sa trajanjem intervala bez bolesti (disease free interval - DFI). Bolesnici sa visokim skorom ekspresije imali su skoro dvostruko kraći DFI u odnosu na one sa sla­bom lokalnom ekspresijom survivina i malim brojem survivin pozitivnih ćelija (9 ± 7 vs 19 ± 13 meseci). Stepen prisustva tumor infltrišućih limfocita u tumorskom tkivu bio je značajno udružen sa koncetracijom survivina u serumu, sa najnižim prosečnim vrednostima detektovanim u uzorcima bolesnika sa najvećim stepenom infiltracije. Serumske koncentracije survivina bile su najveće u uzorcima bolesnika sa melanomom IA kliničkog stadijuma American Joint Commission on Cancer (AJCC), pT1a histološkog stadijuma, bolesnika čiji su tumori bili u horizontalnoj fazi rasta, bez znakova širenja limfohematogenim putem, sa najvećim brojem mitoza i koji su imali najmanji Clark indeks.

AB  - Background: The immune response in patients with melanoma is an important focus of research due to the tumor's resistance and immunotherapy possibilities. IL-27 is one of the cytokines with antitumor properties. The role of IL-27 in the pathogenesis of melanoma is still unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the association between serum IL-27 levels and the clinical parameters of melanoma patients. Methods: The IL-27 concentration was determined by commercial ELISA in serum samples from melanoma patients (n=72) and healthy control subjects (n=44). Patients were classified according to AJCC clinical stage, TNM stage, the length of progression-free interval (PFI) and the extent of the disease (localized or widespread). Results: Average IL-27 values were increased in patients with early stages of melanoma compared to patients with terminal stages and control values. The highest IL-27 concentration was found in stage Ila. Patients in stages III and IV had significantly lower values of IL-27 compared to control. Patients with localized melanoma and shorter PFI had insignificantly increased IL-27 levels compared to patients with widespread disease and longer PFI. Patients with metastatic disease and stage TNM4 had significantly lower average IL-27 values compared to control. Patients with high production of IL-27 (>1000 pg/mL) were most numerous in Ila AJCC stage, with initial tumor size TNM2 and in the group of patients with localized disease. Conclusions: High levels of IL-27 in patients with melanoma are associated with the initial stages and localized disease.

AB  - Background/Aim. Several cytokines and lymphokines (IL1β, ENA78, IL6, TNFα, IL8 and S100A8) are expressed during dental pulp inflammation. Analysis of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) offers a non-invasive means of studying general host response in oral cavity. Although GCF levels of various mediators could reflect the state of inflammation both in dental pulp and gingiva adjacent to a tooth, GCF samples of those without significant gingivitis could be interpreted as reflection of pulpal process. The aim of this study was to investigate IL9 GCF values in patients with dental caries and to assess possible influence of various dental fillings materials on local IL9 production. Methods. The study group included 90 patients, aged 18-70, with inclusion and exclusion criteria in the prospective clinical study. Of the 6 types of material used for the restoration of prepared cavities, 3 were intended for temporary and 3 for definitive restoration. According to dental fillings weight, all the participants were divided into 3 groups: those with fillings lighter than 0.50 g, those with 0.50-1.00 g, and those with fillings heavier than 1.00 g. Samples were taken from gingival sulcus using the filter paper technique. Clinical parameters were determined by bleeding index, plaque index (Silness-Lou, 0-3), gingival index (0-3), and gingival sulcus depth. Cytokine concentrations were assessed using commercially available cytomix. Results. According to the weight of dental fillings, there was a clear decreament trend of IL9 values meaning that dental defects greater than 1.00 g of dental filling were associated with lower GCF IL9 concentration. The IL9 values correlated with the degree of gingival index and depth of gingival sulcus, being higher with more advanced gingivitis and more pronounced anatomical changes in the tooth edge. Different filling materials exerted various local IL9 responses. Zink polycarbonate cement and amalgam fillings induced a significant and long-lasting local IL9 decrement, while the use of Tetric EvoCeram and GMA-BISK significantly increased IL9 levels. Conclusion. The obtained results indicate that IL9 GCF could be regarded as a measure of odontoblasts' response to the extensity of dental caries. The type of material used for dental fillings could profoundly alter biological function of gingival and pulpal cells.

abstract = "Background/Aim. Several cytokines and lymphokines (IL1β, ENA78, IL6, TNFα, IL8 and S100A8) are expressed during dental pulp inflammation. Analysis of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) offers a non-invasive means of studying general host response in oral cavity. Although GCF levels of various mediators could reflect the state of inflammation both in dental pulp and gingiva adjacent to a tooth, GCF samples of those without significant gingivitis could be interpreted as reflection of pulpal process. The aim of this study was to investigate IL9 GCF values in patients with dental caries and to assess possible influence of various dental fillings materials on local IL9 production. Methods. The study group included 90 patients, aged 18-70, with inclusion and exclusion criteria in the prospective clinical study. Of the 6 types of material used for the restoration of prepared cavities, 3 were intended for temporary and 3 for definitive restoration. According to dental fillings weight, all the participants were divided into 3 groups: those with fillings lighter than 0.50 g, those with 0.50-1.00 g, and those with fillings heavier than 1.00 g. Samples were taken from gingival sulcus using the filter paper technique. Clinical parameters were determined by bleeding index, plaque index (Silness-Lou, 0-3), gingival index (0-3), and gingival sulcus depth. Cytokine concentrations were assessed using commercially available cytomix. Results. According to the weight of dental fillings, there was a clear decreament trend of IL9 values meaning that dental defects greater than 1.00 g of dental filling were associated with lower GCF IL9 concentration. The IL9 values correlated with the degree of gingival index and depth of gingival sulcus, being higher with more advanced gingivitis and more pronounced anatomical changes in the tooth edge. Different filling materials exerted various local IL9 responses. Zink polycarbonate cement and amalgam fillings induced a significant and long-lasting local IL9 decrement, while the use of Tetric EvoCeram and GMA-BISK significantly increased IL9 levels.

AB  - Seventy-eight melanoma patients and 10 healthy individuals were examined. Follow-up examinations of all melanoma patients were performed regularly every three months. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) were defined as lineage negative (CD3(-), CD19(-), CD56(-)), HLA-DR-/low, CD11b(+) and CD33(+). Classification of granulocytic (GrMDSC) and monocytic (MoMDSC) subsets was based on the CD15 and CD14 expression, respectively. Unlike the MoMDSC, that were present in 60% of healthy controls and 15% of melanoma patients, the GrMDSC were present in all examined participants, and the melanoma patients were found to have statistically higher frequencies compared with healthy controls. Accordingly, we kept focused on GrMDSC frequencies in relation to the melanoma stages and course of the disease. The GrMDSC values are highest in stage IV melanoma patients, with statistical significance compared with stages IA, IB, IIA and IIB. Patients with progression had statistically higher GrMDSC counts comparing with those with stable disease (P = 0.0079). Patients who had progression-free interval (PFI)  lt  12 months showed significantly higher GrMDSC values compared with those with PFI > 12 months (P = 0.0333). GrMDSC showed significant negative correlation with PFI intervals (P = 0.0095). The GrMDSC subset was predominant in all our patients. We confirmed that GrMDSC do accumulate early in the peripheral blood of melanoma patients and their frequencies correlate narrowly with the clinical stage and the spread of the disease. The increase in GrMDSC frequencies correlates well with a progressive disease and could be considered a potential predictive biomarker of high-risk melanoma cases that are more likely to have a shorter PFI.

AB  - Background/Aim. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) are potential early urinary biomarkers of clear renal cell carcinoma (cRCC). The aim of this study was to ascertain relationship between the urine concentrations KIM-1 and AQP-1 with tumor size, grade, pT stage and type of operation (radical or partial nephrectomy) in patients with cRCC. Methods. Urinary concentrations of urinary KIM-1 (uKIM-1) and urinary AQP-1 (uAQP-1) were determined by commercially available ELISA kits. The analysis included 40 patients undergoing partial or radical nephrectomy for cRCC and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy adult volunteers. Results. The median preoperative concentrations of KIM-1 in the cRCC group [0.724 ± 1.120 ng/mg urinary creatinine (Ucr)] were significantly greater compared with controls (healthy volunteers) (0.210 ± 0.082 ng/mgUcr) (p = 0.0227). Postoperatively, uKIM-1 concentration decreased significantly to control values (0.177 ± 0.099 ng/mgUcr vs 0.210 ± 0.082 ng/mgUcr, respectively). The size, grade and stage of tumor were correlated positively with preoperative uKIM-1 concentrations. Contrary to these results, concentrations of uAQP-1 in the cRCC group were significantly lower (0.111 ± 0.092 ng/mgUcr) compared with the control group (0.202 ± 0.078 ng/mgUcr) (p = 0.0014). Postoperatively, the concentrations of uAQP-1 increased progressively up to control values, approximately. We find no significant correlation between preoperative uAQP-1 concentrations and tumor size, grade and stage. Conclusion. uKIM-1 was found to be a reliable diagnostic marker of cRCC, based on its significantly increased values before and decreased values after the nephrectomy.

Grupe su bile komparabilne po polu i godinama života. Rezultati. Srednja preoperativna koncentracija urinarnog KIM-1 (uKIM-1) u cRCC grupi [0,724 ± 1,120 ng/mg kreatinia u urinu (Ucr)] bila je statistički značajno viša u poređenju sa koncentracijom u kontrolnoj grupi (0,210 ± 0,082 ng/mgUcr ) (p = 0,0227). Postoperativno, koncentracija uKIM-1 značajno je padala i približavala se vrednosti u kontrolnoj grupi (0,177 ± 0,099 ng/mgUcr nasuprot 0,210 ± 0,082 ng/mgUcr). Veličina, gradus i stadijum tumora bili su u pozitivnoj korelaciji sa preoperativnim koncentracijama uKIM-1.

AB  - A series of new hybrid molecules with a hydrazone fragment were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the hydrazones 4a-c showed exchange of syn and antiperiplanar conformers around the amide bond, the more stable being the antiperiplanar one. The nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) spectra confirm E configuration around C=N bond. The tested compounds exhibited concentration-dependent cytotoxic effects against human tumor cell lines in a micromolar range (MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) tetrazolium reduction assay). Hydrazone 4a proved to be the most potent antiproliferative agent of the series. Within the antioxidant screening 8b exhibited the highest radical scavenging activity (% RSA max) and the largest rate constant for the reaction with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl.
