title: [Hemodynamic effect of plasma DNA].
abstract: To reveal the hemodynamic effect of plasma DNA, the authors measured the concentrations of plasma DNA, the length of its molecular fragments, and hemodynamic resistance/Toms effect. The Toms effect was detected in all blood samples from 10 healthy donors and 39 patients without acute stroke caused by atherosclerosis of the head great arteries with and without arterial hypertension. There was a clear inverse relationships between the plasma concentrations of DNA which had only long-molecular fragments in healthy persons and the hemodynamic resistance of its blood flow samples. The patient blood plasma had significant increased DNA concentrations but their molecular fragments were long and short. Inverse relationships between the plasma DNA concentration and the hemodynamic resistance of the patients' blood flow samples had a less correlation coefficient due to the high proportion of short DNA molecular fragments. The Toms effect was shown in the DNA solution prepared only from human funic blood where the DNA molecular fragments were long. The Toms effect was absent in the solutions prepared from the commercial cattle or salmon sperm DNA which contained shorter DNA molecular fragments. It is concluded that plasma DNA has a hemodynamic effect and the origin of long-molecular fragments of DNA which is typical for healthy young persons and short DNA molecular fragments that additionally appear in patients with vascular disorders is different.
