Gender differences in the distribution of HLA II markers in chronic glomerulonephritis and chronic kidney disease in Uzbek population
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) represents an increasing global worldwide health problem particularly in elderly people [1; 2] and/or affected by diabetes, hypertension, and obesity [3]. Therefore, understanding the biological machinery associated with CKD represents an important obj ective in nephrology and internal medicine. According to global WHO data at the moment kidneys diseases are diagnosed for 300-600 million people — about 5-10% of the population of the planet [http://who.int/mediacentre]. According to the Health Institute statistic data in Uzbekistan was observed an increase of patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ERSD) in 2014. The number of reported cases of ESRD in the country was 18000 in 2014, and at the moment there are 1888 patients requiring hemodialysis program.
It is well known that glomerulonephritis progresses to CKD and can develop in ESRD despite receiving specific therapy; the progression level varies and depends on the Host factor. Investigation of the specific genetic-markers in ESRD patients can help to find new strategies of prognosis and prevent ESRD at the early stage. As known, many genome-wide association studies have detected a strong association between the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and glomerulonephritis over the world populations [4-7], and most of them show the association between HLA and ESRD. The genetic factors play a role not only in the identification of genetic markers of the disease, but also in the emergence of new concepts of the mechanisms of the disease and in addition of information about protective and predisposing factors in the development of diseases, as well as the formation of hypotheses about the totality of exogenous and endogenous factors that lead to disease.
As it is known, for multifactorial diseases has geographic and population conditionally associated with the peculiarities of linkage disequilibrium on different continents, as well for some diseases characterized by a specific distribution by gender, so for example, primary glomerulonephritis occurs twice often in men than in women. Based on the aforesaid, in this study we tried to investigate the association between HLA class II polymorphism and CG, for finding out the mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of this pathology in Uzbek population according to gender distribution.
The aim of this study is to examine gender differences in the distribution of HLAII gene in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis and chronic kidney disease in the Uzbek population.
Materials and methods
The study was performed at the Institute of Immunology of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan in the lab of human genomics named after Professor R. M. Ruzybakiev and SDC "Immunogen Test" in the period from 2010 to 2016y. y. The selection of patients in outpatient and inpatient treatment was carried out on the basis of RSCS named acad. V. V. Vahidov and SDC "Immunogen Test" at the Institute of Immunology of the AS of Uzbekistan. We have examined 542 people of Uzbek nationality. During the process of selecting individuals for this study we took into account their national identity in three generations, according to the recommendations VII Workshop on HLA (1977). The 225 people of these have been diagnosed with chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic renal failure complicated with end-stage, to whom the chronodialize was recommended. The control group consisted of 317 healthy individuals who are relatives of the first line of kinship. The patients were 51 female and 174 male, mean age was 34,35±11,41. Among the donors were 163 male and 154 female, mean age was 40,84±11,12.
The DNA Isolation was carried out using the method of alcohol-salt treatment by S. Miller et al (1988). HLA-typing of alleles of genes DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1 was performed using kits "of HLA-DNA-TECH" (« DNA Technology SPA», Moscow) using PCR mSSP method (polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers) in modification of Institute of Immunology MOH RF (D.Yu. Trofimov, 1996) and with Q-PCR. As a result of the behavior of the reactions were determined following DRB1 specificity: DRB1 * 01, * 04, * 05, * 07, * 08, * 09, * 10, * 11, * 12, * 13, * 14, * 15, * 16, * 17 (Splits option * 03) * 18 (* Splits version 03). During the process of typing of the DQA1 locus the following specificities were found: * 0101, * 0102, * 0103, * 0201, * 0301, * 0401, * 0501, * 0601. On locus DQB1: * 0201, * 0301, * 0302, * 0303, * 0304, * 0305, * 0401/02 * 0501 * 0502/04 * 0503, * 0601, * 0602-08.
For evaluating of the results obtained, we held the statistical processing of the data, with the help of Arlequin 3.5.2.2 software package, Excel 2007, SISA and a number of formulas to calculate the OR (Odds Ratio) is the index of relative risk, EF (Etiologic fraction) — etiologic fraction, PF (Preventive fraction) — preventive fraction, x2-confidence index Pearson, 95% CI-confidence interval.

Results
As a result of our study have been identified differences in the distribution of alleles' frequencies of genes under study not only in patients and healthy individuals, but also at the separation of the study sample by gender. As can be seen from Table 1, in this sample from the male subjects met all 5 significant markers of predisposition and 4 protecting variants.
The highest relative risks for men have been identified for specific HLA DRB1 * 08 (OR = 4,85), both alleles (OR = 1,75) DRB1 * 14 (6) Splits option DR6 DRB1 * 13 (6) (OR = 4, 18), DQB1 * 06: 01 (OR = 13,2).
In addition to markers of predisposition also met the protecting alleles, the most significance had allelic variants of HLA DRB1 * 04 and DQA1 * 0301.
Then the group offemale patients with CG and CRF was analyzed (Table 2). There were also identified marker alleles, but they differed significantly from the relevant alleles detected in males. It is worth noting that women identified only three predisposing marker 6 and tread options. For most indicators ofthe relative risk for women were identified for both alleles of Splits version DR2 DRB1 * 15 (2) (OR = 2,64) DRB1 * 16 (2) (OR = 9,91), DQA1 * 01: 02 (OR = 2.86).
Also we met and protecting alleles had the greatest significance of allelic variants ofHLA DRB1 * 04, HLA DRB1 * 11 and DQA1 * 03: 01.

The association of HLA alleles could be used as a risk classification marker and thereby progression to much more severe disease could be protected or diagnosed earlier. This would require further investigation with larger number of patients and healthy in-
dividuals. Also this investigation shows the important role of gender differentiation in prognosis of possible genetically determinate disease appearance or protection against it.

Influence of groups of risk on processes of free radical oxidation in blood and urine in the workers of oil and gas refining industry
Abstract: The study of the systems of free radical and microsomal oxidation, energetic metabolism appeared to be rational in the prognostic view for determination of the quantitative measure for activity of the oxidative processes in the body and identification of the group of increased risk at the occupational selection for work connected with effect of toxic substances as well as at choice of individual tactics of prevention and therapeutic correction of the oxidative processes. Keywords: free radicals, oxidation, workers, oil and gas refining industry.
Introduction
Early diagnostics of diseases and estimation ofharmful influence of the factors of the environment are the most important problem both in clinic, and at the decision ofhygienic questions [1; 2; 6; 7]. The successful decision of the given problem will allow to develop new effective methods ofearly diagnostics, will help to carry out directed purposeful, the scientifically proved search of optimum ways for improvement of ways for prevention and increase the body resistance [3; 4; 5; 8]. For decision ofthis tasks there is required development of correct prognostic criteria characterized by high sensitivity, accuracy and informativity.
With the account high informativity of parameters of the process of free radical oxidation with use of registration of chemilumi-nescense of blood and urine we investigated biopower and system of microsomal monooxigenases under influence chemical pollutants.
For this purpose in the erythrocytes of 47 workers at the Shur-tan gas and oil-refining complex, having contact with aromatic carbohydrates, there were studied contents of ATPF, ADP, AMP, activity of Na, K-, Ca, Mg-dependent ATPhases, G-6-PDH (glu-cose-6-phosphatdehydrogenase), hexokynase (HK), Phosphofruk-tokinase (PFK), pyruvatkinase (PK), catalase, peroxydase, superox-idismutase (SOD), glutationperoxidase (GP), glutationreductase GR), glutation-S-transferase (GT), glyceroaldehydphosphatdehy-drogenase (GAPDG). Alongside with it there was studied concentration of Na, K, Mg, Ca and Pn, intensity of chemiluminescence of blood and urine, induced by ions Fe 2+' and the state of cytochrom P-450 dependent monooxigenase system.
The contents of adenyl nucleotides in the erythrocytes was measured with use of standard sets "Test combination АТР « and « Test combination FDP/AMP « of firm « Roche Diagnostics « (Switzerland). Concentration of K and Na was measured with method of flame photometry, and the quantity of Ca, Mg and P11 — with use of kits of firm "BRNO" (Cechy). The state of cytochrom-450 dependent monooxygenase system was evaluated by velocity of demetyliration of administered of the drug antipirine into the body, acetylation — by velocity of asoniazide withdrawal and its acety-lated derivatives.
Materials and methods:
All studied participants were divided into 3 groups in view of intensity of influence chemical pollutants: group 1-11 persons not having contact with chemical pollutants; group 2-14 participants, having contact with chemical pollutants 2-3 times a week — 11 men who are not having of contact with chemical загрязнителями; 2-я — 14 men having contact with chemical загрязнителями by periodicity 2-3 times per week (group of risk); group 3-22 persons, constantly contacting with chemical pollutants in the working process during 3-5 years; group of healthy participants included 20 persons working in the administrative unit in the complex, which in the professional activity did not contact to chemical manufacture.
Results and discussion
The carried out analysis of the individual data has shown, that the signs of influence chemical pollutants are found out in the first years of work in the shop on manufacture of pyromellitic
