The study of the antigenic and molecular genetic structure of human acute encephalomyelitis virus (HAEV) showed a high similarity of the HAEV N gene with the homologous gene of the fixed rabies virus ...strain. The results of the nucleotide sequence analysis indicate that HAEV belongs to the lyssavirus genotype 1. The N gene sequence is the closest to those of the ERA-CB20-M and RV-97 strains of the rabies virus. The need for further research into the role of the human acute encephalomyelitis virus in human pathology stems from past surveys that revealed the presence of the VNAs against this virus in 6 per cent of the blood received from donors in the USA and in each third among the patients with multiple sclerosis in the former USSR.
Diabetic retinopathy is a microvascular complication of diabetes and has complex and multifactorial pathogenesis. Cascade of biochemical changes characteristic to other diabetes vascular ...complications leads to structural changes of retinal capillaries some of which are unique. As a result of all processes at different pathogenesis levels there is an increase of free radicals concentration and decrease of antioxidant protection thus provoking an oxidative stress in retina and endothelial dysfunction with subsequent hypoxia and activation of growth factors and promotion of neovascularization leading to loss of vision in patients with type II diabetes mellitus. Consideration of oxidative stress reduction and restoration of retinal antioxidant system using exogenous antioxidants is a promising issue for further research.
