[Forms of cell destruction during the course of embryonic liver development in chickens]. / Formy kletochnykh destruktsii v khode razvitiia émbrional'noi pecheni kur.

Physiological cell destruction in organogenesis of chick embryo liver was studied during 3-20 days of incubation. It was stated that during embryonic development of the chick embryo liver, physiological cell destruction occured by two ways: karyolysis and karyopycnosis, the former being of greater importance than the latter. Stages of these processes and their changes in the course of the liver development were discussed.

[Noradrenaline and adrenaline concentration in the myocardium of persons who have died suddenly or from injuries]. / Soderzhanie noradrenalina i adrenalina v miokarde liudei, pogibshikh ot travmy i vnezapno.

To investigate mechanisms of sudden death the authors determined the content of noradrenaline and adrenaline in the myocardium of different heart sections in deceased persons by the fluorimetric method; similar studies of the myocardium of persons who died of trauma were conducted. Heterotopia in the noradrenaline content between the cardiac chambers proved to be considerably more pronounced in sudden death than in fatal trauma. The differences in the adrenaline and noradrenaline content in the heart chambers of persons who died of trauma and suddenly indicated the death mechanisms to be different in these cases.
