Genetic polymorphism at 10 independent loci (ABO, RH, HP, GC, PI, TF, ACP1, PGM1, GLO1, and PTC) was studied in male patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma. These patients were divided into two groups, depending on their tolerance for surgical intervention and on the postoperative course: (1) patients with an uneventful postoperative period and (2) patients with postoperative complications. The genetic structure of the combined sample at the loci studied did not differ from that of the control group consisting of health people (population control). Genotypic differences might manifest at the postoperative stage rather than at the onset of the disease, and determine the presence of postoperative complications. However, comparative analysis of the two groups of patients revealed their polar divergence in respect to phenotype and gene frequencies at certain loci. Moreover, the genotypic structure of patients in both groups differed from that in the combined sample and in the population control. In the group with postoperative complications, higher frequencies of the alleles GC*1F, ACP1*A, and HP*2 were observed. By contrast, the group of patients with an uneventful postoperative period demonstrated prevalence of the alternative alleles of these loci: GC*2, ACP1*B, and HP*1. The greatest difference in the distribution of informative allele frequencies was observed between the group of patients with postoperative complications and the control group. This is evidence that these groups significantly differ in their genetic structure. Such divergence is largely determined by the polymorphic multifunctional systems of serum proteins.

Relationships between genetic polymorphisms (ABO, RH, HP, TF, GC, Pi, ACP1, PGM1, GLO1, PTC) and some clinical, biochemical, and functional parameters were studied in patients with epidermoid carcinoma of the lung who were divided into 2 groups: those with uncomplicated and complicated postoperative courses of the disease. They were found to be different in the two groups. The values of ESR, albumin, lymphocytes, vital capacity, and RQ are the most distinctive signs that differentiate the patient groups. A high correlation was found between the signs in patients with an uncomplicated postoperative course. A less correlation between the signs, as a higher intergroup variability in the majority of the signs under study suggests that there is a significantly impaired physiological homeostasis in the group of patients with a complicated course. Comparing the mean values and dispersions shows their equal direction in the two groups of patients irrespective of their genetic polymorphism. The GC system is associated with profound changes of the studied signs in the group of patients with an uncomplicated course and GC*1F carriage should be regarded as a poor factor in the prognosis of the disease.

The geographic distribution of the frequencies of genes related to the immunological and biochemical polymorphism was studied in the Maris, who are the indigenous population of the Marii El Republic. Data on the frequencies of 33 alleles of 10 loci (ABO, TF, GC, PI, HP, AHS, F13B, ACP1, PGM1, and GLO1) in five raions (districts) of Marii El were obtained. Computer interpolation maps were constructed for all alleles. The maps allows to predict the distribution of the alleles throughout Marii El. A map of the reliability of the cartographic prediction was drawn. For the first time, the reliability of predicted gene frequencies were taken into account in constructing and interpreting the maps of gene frequencies. For the entire set of the studied genes, parameters of heterozygosity (HS) and gene diversity (GST) were estimated. Cartographic correlation analysis was performed to reveal the relationship between gene frequencies and geographic coordinates. It was found that 42% of the studied genes predominantly correlated with latitude and 9% with longitude. It was assumed that the genetic structure of Mari populations had been mainly determined by latitude-related factors. A map of Nei's genetic distances between the overall Mari gene pool and the local populations revealed a central core, which was close to the "average Mari" gene pool, and a periphery, which was genetically distant from it. Suggestions on the microevolution of the Mari gene pool were advanced. Maps of the genes with the most characteristic genetic relief (ABO*B, ACP*A, TF*D, GC*1F, PI*M2, HP*1F, and F13B*3) are shown. These maps exhibit a high correlation with the maps of principal components.

The red cell enzymes ACP1, ESD, GLO1, PGM1 and RDS and the serum proteins GC, HP, PI, and TF were determined for samples of 150 and 144 Sakha, respectively. The Sakha, a Turkic-speaking population, inhabit the Sakha-Yakutia Republic in northeastern Siberia. High gene frequencies were found for ACP1*A, GLO1*1 and GC*1F, whereas no P1*S or P1*Z alleles were found. In addition, 1 heterozygous phenotype with ACP1*C and 2 heterozygous phenotypes with ESD*7 were found. The genetic distance measures show close affinities of the Sakha population to Buryats (especially Western Buryats), Mongols, and Evenks, whereas the genetic distance to Turkic-speaking Altay and Tuvan populations is great.
