[INTERACTION OF PRO- AND EUKARYOTES AND THE PROBLEMS OF TISSUE BIOLOGY]

The article considers the interaction of pro- and eukaryotes from the standpoint of tissue biology. Examples of long-term persistence of prokaryotes in eukaryotic cells are presented. Morpho-functional characteristics of the interactions of pro- and eukaryotic cells are given, including their ultrastructural relationship. It is shown that the symbiosis between unrelated organisms is a reflection of their adaptation to the use of trophic resources of the environment. One of the implications of endocytobiosis of non-pathogenic bacteria in eukaryotic cells is to increase the biodiversity. The concept of multicellular eukaryotic organisms as complex cell and tissue systems of symbiotic interactions of pro- and eukaryotic cells, is discussed.
