The Ebola virus (member of Ebolavirus genus Filoviridae family) is the etiologic agent of extremely hazard human disease with high mortality rates (up to 90%). The most important components of spectrum of therapeutics for special prophylactic and current of disease, caused by Ebola virus, are prepares, based on virus specific antibodies (convalescent's plasma, geterologic immunoglobulins, monoclonal antibodies. The use of different class therapeutics, based on virus specific antibodies, the possible improvements of its composition and strategy of its application for special prophylactic and current of disease, caused by Ebola virus, are considered in this review.

The morphological aspects of TB pathogenesis are well described in the publications. Much is also known about the main stages of development and formation of specific adaptive immunity. However, from our point of view, not enough attention is being paid to the involvement of the immune system in the pathogenesis of clinically relevant TB abnormalities, as well as various forms of the disease. ⋯ The absence of clinical manifestations of primary TB infection can be explained by a high level of natural resistance of the human body to tuberculosis, and sometimes can be an effect of acquired protection due to BCG vaccination. This review attempts to discuss the role of immune mechanisms in the pathogenesis both at the beginning of disease development, and in the process of its various manifestations. Issues of genetically determined resistance or susceptibility to TB are not being covered in detail in this manuscript.

To determine the activity of enzyme 5`-nucleotidase depending on the of disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome phases and duration of infection period in patients with chronic hepatitis C. ⋯ 166 patients (92 men, 74 women) with chronic hepatitis C were under observation. Conditionally, all patients were devided into 3 groups, based on the number of Tr, according to the phases of hemostasis: I group - hypercoagulation with number Tr>350×109/l; II - transient phase - Tr from 350 to 200×109/l and III - hypocoagulation - Tr.

To evaluate the qualitative and quantitative composition of the parietal microbiota of the small intestine (SI) and its significance in the disturbance of the digestive and absorption functions of the small intestine in metabolic syndrome (MS). ⋯ The results of our research suggest that the identified changes in the functional state of SI in combination with a violation of mucosal enteral microbiocenosis are an important link in the complex pathogenesis of the MS.

The aim of the present report is to describe a clinical case of toxocariasis. 37-year - old man was admitted to Pirogov Municipal Clinical Hospital No.1 in Moscow. He was presented with intense generalized abdominal pain. Three months before the described hospitalization, the patient had acute bronchitis, then pneumonia. ⋯ Patient lost 8 kilos over the last 6 months. There were arisen many hypotheses, however, after a more detailed survey about patient's life it turned out that he travelled a lot. So that the parasitosis became the main conjecture, which later was confirmed by serological tests.
