European vaccine research and development infrastructure

TRANSVAC2 is the follow-up project to its successful predecessor project TRANSVAC, the European Network of Vaccine Research and Development funded under FP7. The TRANSVAC2 consortium comprises a comprehensive collection of leading European institutions that propose to further advance with the previous initiative towards the establishment of a fully operational and sustainable European vaccine R&D infrastructure. TRANSVAC2 will support innovation for both prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine development based on a disease-overarching and one-health approach, thereby optimising the knowledge and expertise gained during the development of both human and animal vaccines. This will be achieved by bridging the translational gap in biomedical research, and by supporting cooperation between public vaccine R&D institutions of excellence, related initiatives and networks in Europe, and industrial partners. TRANSVAC2 will complement and integrate with existing European research infrastructures in both the public and private sectors. TRANSVAC2 will function as leverage and innovation catalyst between all stakeholders involved in vaccine R&D in Europe and -by providing integrated and overarching vaccine R&D services- will contribute to the development of effective products to address European and global health challenges, to controlling the burden and spread of infectious diseases, and reinforce the economic assets represented by vaccine developers in Europe.
The impact of TRANSVAC2 will be maximised by two external advisory bodies. An independent Scientific & Ethics Advisory Committee will provide recommendations surrounding scientific-technical and ethical issues, whereas the coordination of TRANSVAC2 with other related initiatives and the further promotion of the long-term stability of a European vaccine R&D infrastructure will be supported by a Board of Stakeholders comprising representatives of policy and decision makers, industry associations and European infrastructures.
Advanced integrative solutions to corrosion problems beyond micro–scale: towards long-term durability of miniaturized biomedical, electronic and energy systems

mCBEEs Innovative Training Network is a joint venture between academy and industry with a primary goal to train young researchers in the field of corrosion and corrosion protection of micro- and nanodevices. The network focuses on the study of corrosion mechanisms beyond microscale of components in miniaturized systems in different environments using localized techniques, and the development of multifunctional protective coatings to increase the long-term durability of such components. Corrosion phenomena occurring in micro- and nanodimensional components can develop in a completely different path than in their bulk counterparts and corrosion might influence the functional properties of small components in a much more severe manner. Three main strategic fields where corrosion could seriously compromise the performance of micro- or nanodevices have been identified: biotechnology (micro/nano-robotic implants, micro/nano-electrodes for recording and stimulating neuronal activity, or micro-featured prosthesis implants); electronics (micro/nano-components in electronic boards, magnetooptical thin films, multiferroic micro/nano-devices); and energy technology (metallic foam-based micro- and nanostructured electrodes, self-standing nanoarchitectures). Several disciplines (physics, electrochemistry, engineering, biology and robotics) converge to provide a multidisciplinary approach to accomplish mCBEEs goals. The ITN brings together 15 beneficiaries and 3 partners including 4 research institutes and 4 private companies belonging to 9 EU Member states, and to 2 associated states (Switzerland, Turkey). The Consortium complementarity will enable a high-level, multifaceted educational programme, where specials efforts will be done to bridge fundamental research with industrial applications. The educational programme is integrated with training in soft skills and aims at providing a network of highly qualified researchers able to tackle challenges both in Academia and Industry.

Inhibition of lipoxygenase (LOX) and anticancer activity caused by gold(I) mixed ligands complexes of triphenylphosphine and thioamides

Four mixed ligand gold(I) complexes with the thioamides 2-mercapto-thiazolidine (mtzdH), 2-mercapto-benzothiazole (mbztH) and 5-chloro-2-mercapto-benzothiazole (ClmbztH) and triphenylphosphine (tpp) of formulae [Au(tpp)Cl] (1) [Au(tpp)(mtzd)] (2), [Au(tpp)(mbzt)] (3) and [Au(tpp)(Clmbzt)] (4), already known, were used to study their mechanism of inhibition activity towards the catalytic oxidation of linoleic acid to hydroperoxylinoleic acid by the enzyme lipoxygenase (LOX), kinetically and theoretically. The results are compared to those of cisplatin. In addition, the anticancer cell screening results against leimyosarcoma (LMS) cells have shown that 2-4 complexes were more active than cisplatin. The uptake of complexes in LMS cells were also studied with electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry spectroscopy.
PERFIL EPIDEMIOLÓGICO DE ÓBITOS POR CÂNCER DE MAMA EM IDOSOS BRASILEIROS, 2010-2019

INTRODUÇÃO: O câncer de mama é um grupo heterogêneo de doenças, cuja incidência tende a crescer progressivamente a partir dos 40 anos, assim como a mortalidade por essa neoplasia. OBJETIVO: Analisar o perfil epidemiológico de óbitos causados por câncer de mama em idosos brasileiros. MÉTODOS: Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo em base de dados secundários, considerando todos os óbitos causados por câncer de mama (CID C50) no Brasil, no período de 2010 a 2019; nos sexos masculino e feminino; e nas faixas etárias de “60 a 69 anos”, “70 a 79 anos” e “80 anos e mais”. Os dados foram obtidos no Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade (SIM) do Sistema Único de Saúde do Brasil. RESULTADOS: Observou-se que, no período analisado, ocorreram 153.951 óbitos por câncer de mama no Brasil. Deste quantitativo, 81.322 óbitos ocorreram em pessoas idosas, representando 52,82% do total de óbitos. Analisando especificamente o grupo dos idosos, constatou-se maior frequência de internações em “60 a 69 anos” (41,60%), seguido por “70 a 79 anos” (31,02%). O número de óbitos em mulheres idosas, quando comparado ao sexo masculino, é significativamente maior (98,49% do total de óbitos em idosos). CONCLUSÃO: A idade é apontada pela literatura como um dos principais fatores de risco para câncer de mama, dado que foi igualmente confirmado nesse estudo. Sabe-se também que o câncer de mama é o mais incidente em mulheres no mundo e o presente estudo, portanto, corrobora a notória predominância do câncer de mama no sexo feminino.
Study on Costumes of Greek Mythology Gods in Films

This research is to analyze costumes of Greek Mythology Gods in films using Morris` semiotics. In film Clash of The Titans, Zeus` costume of shining gold armored body suit and long manteaux expressed the limitless sublime. The definite form contouring body shape of his costume also demonstrated classical beauty. Hades` costume of dark colored armor, long manteaux, and transformation via smoke also described the limitless sublime. The unbalanced and irregular shaped armor showed ugliness. In Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightening Thief, the armor and long manteaux of Zeus showed the limitless sublime. The beauty of his body and his sophisticated business wear indicated classical beauty. These features were also present in Poseidon`s costume as well. The limitless sublime and ugliness are implied in Hades` look by portraying him as having a monster body with horns and wings, and his costume of punk look. In Immortals, gods of Olympus wore clothing that was reminiscent of Egyptian times, which represented a time of strong royal authority, in order to expose the limitless sublime. Classical beauty was shown in the beauty of their body. Titans` costumes and look of non-human being were composed of black and red to present ugliness. The inherent meanings of Gods` costumes are death of god, patriarchy, and the good triumphing over the evil. The Greek gods are not held in the same reverence in the contemporary society. However mythology inspires lots of visual creations. The results help to accumulate a creative design database for fashion.
Attentional and behavioural responses of spider fearfuls to virtual spiders

This study employed an immersed virtual environment (IVE) in the Nijmegen RIVERlab to study spider fearfuls’ attentional and motor reactions to virtual spiders. The participants were exposed to virtual spiders while completing an unrelated task, walking freely through a virtual museum. Compared to non-fearful controls, spider fearfuls showed an increase in state anxiety, they spent more time looking at spiders, and they exhibited spontaneous behavioural avoidance of spiders and visually similar objects. The results extend, and to some degree contradict, those of earlier studies with static pictures, and they speak to the usefulness of state-of-the-art IVEs in fundamental anxiety research.
Toward the next generation of air quality monitoring indicators

This paper introduces an initiative to bridge the state of scientific knowledge on air pollution with the needs of policymakers and stakeholders to design the generation of air quality indicators. As a first step this initiative assesses current monitoring and modeling associated with a number of important pollutants with an eye toward identifying knowledge gaps and scientific needs that are a barrier to reducing air pollution impacts on human and ecosystem health across the globe. Four outdoor air pollutants were considered e particulate matter, ozone, mercury, and Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) e because of their clear adverse impacts on human and ecosystem health and because of the availability of baseline data for assessment for each. While other papers appearing in this issue will address each pollutant separately, this paper serves as a summary of the initiative and presents recommendations for needed investments to provide improved measurement, monitoring, and modeling data for policyrelevant indicators. The ultimate goal of this effort is to enable enhanced public policy responses to air pollution by linking improved data and measurement methods to decision-making through the development of indicators that can allow policymakers to better understand the impacts of air pollution and, along with source attribution based on modeling and measurements, facilitate improved policies to solve it. The development of indicators represents a crucial next step in this process.
Kinematic analysis of triple jump techniques of women triple jumpers in the 11~(th) National Games

The authors studied kinematic parameters relating to triple jump techniques of top 8 triple jumpers par-ticipating in women triple jump final in track and field competition in the 11th National Games,and revealed the following findings: women triple jumpers in China had a poor absolute run-up speed and a poor take-off speed utilization rate,which were respectively 8.96 m/s and 95.5%,significantly different from 9.41 m/s and 98.2% achieved by world triple jumpers(P0.01);at the moment the take-off leg lands and takes off,their body center of gravity had a poor horizontal speed,which was only 8.71 m/s,very significantly different from world 9.33 m/s(P0.01);during hopping and striding,their body center of gravity had appropriate lift-off angles,which were re-spectively(17.19±4.37)° and(15.07±4.12)°,but at the last leap,their body center of gravity had a too big lift-off angle,which was(23.57±4.12)°,bigger than 16°~20° achieved by world triple jumpers;their triple jump duration was relatively long,and their take-off effect was not ideal.
Influence of ullage to cavity size ratio on in-situ burning of oil spills in ice-infested water

Abstract This study analyzes the results of meso-scale experiments related to in-situ burning of oil spills in ice leads or in close pack ice, which are the two main spill scenarios commonly found in the arctic with the presence of ullage. Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil with slick thickness of 0.015 m was burned in ice cavities of sizes 1–1.5 m with ullage or freeboard of 0.1–0.2 m. Heat fluxes on oil surface and ice wall, in-depth temperature profiles in gas phase, oil-layer and water-sublayer, and average burning rate were experimentally measured to analyze the influence of ullage and cavity size on burning. Significant improvement in the burning dynamics was observed with an increase in ullage to cavity size ratio ( h/D ). This is mainly due to a recirculation zone developed in the cavity causing partial premixing of oil-vapor and entrained air, which promotes a faster burning rate. The implications of experimental findings towards in-situ burning operation for oil spills in ice leads and close pack ice are discussed. Both freshwater and saltwater ices were used and differences are examined.
Electrification of a rocket during its launch and motion in the atmosphere along active part of the trajectory

We studied the process of electrification of a rocket during launch and flight in the atmosphere at the active part of its trajectory. The values of charge, field strength, and rocket potential at the launch are estimated. Charging and discharging currents are determined for a rocket flying through clouds and precipitation, and solutions expressing the time variation of the rocket’s charge are found. The values of charge, field strength, and rocket potential are obtained as functions of time, together with the engine plume represented as a charged plasma structure. The rocket’s charge is shown to tend to an equilibrium state, and the time of reaching it is found. Mechanisms limiting the charge value are considered, and the conditions of origination of an electric breakdown (lightning) between the rocket and atmosphere are determined.
Scalable production of influenza virus in HEK-293 cells for efficient vaccine manufacturing

Cell culture processes offer an attractive alternative to conventional chicken egg-based influenza vaccine production methods. However, most protocols still rely on the use of adherent cells, which makes process scale-up a challenging issue. In this study, it is demonstrated that the HEK-293 human cell line is able to efficiently replicate influenza virus. Production in serum-free suspension of HEK-293 cultures resulted in high titers of infectious influenza viruses for different subtypes and variants including A/H1, A/H3 and B strains. After virus adaptation and optimization of infection conditions, production in 3-L bioreactor resulted in titers of up to 10(9)IVP/mL demonstrating the scale-up potential of the process.
The Role of Microfinance Banks on Growth and Sustenance of SMEs in Nigeria

Creation and sustenance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is a function of many factors which include funding. The effort to transform innovations into economic goods certainly would require reasonable level of funding which appears elusive due to global economic recession. Accessing credit from conventional money deposit banks has proved irrational due to its attendant cost, hence the need for micro financing which is deliberate initiative to enhance the performance and sustenance of small and medium scale enterprises. This study therefore investigates the role of microfinance on growth and sustenance of small and medium scale enterprises in Nigeria. Primary data are used for this study and the data are sourced from the administration of questionnaire on 300 small and medium entrepreneurs in an annual general meeting. Data are analyzed using descriptive statistics and principal component analysis. The results of the findings show that microfinance is a veritable tool for delivery of financial services to those who are traditionally not served by conventional banks in Nigeria. The study concludes that small scale entrepreneurs hardly have access to credit particularly from the formal sector. Keywords: Microfinance Banks, SMEs, Growth, Sustainance

Oligo-Squaramide rigid-rods for artificial transmembrane signaling

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are transmembrane proteins that are used by cells to transmit information through their membranes; binding of a ligand to their extracellular region provokes a conformational change, initiating a biological process in the cytosol. Copying this type of signaling pathway, which is fundamental to cells and thus a key target in medicinal chemistry, is a fascinating challenge that could allow researchers to bypass endogenous signaling pathways in cells and lead to true synthetic biology. In this project we propose to exploit the self-assembly properties of squaramides (SQs) to create a relay of information through a bilayer membrane. Monomeric SQs self-assemble as head-to-tail aggregates, forming ribbons with all the SQs oriented in the same direction. We have designed a family of scaffolded oligo-SQ arrays that will form intramolecular hydrogen-bonded ribbons aligned in either one direction or the other. We hypothesize that inverting the directionality of the terminal SQ of the ribbon will initiate a domino effect that switches the orientation of the whole array. By functionalizing the terminal SQ of the oligo-SQ relay with a binding site and the opposite end with a spectroscopic reporter, followed by insertion in model membranes, we will show that binding of an external ligand to the terminal SQ switches the directionality of the entire SQ-ribbon and provokes a spectroscopic response from the reporter located at the other side of the membrane. Thus this system will act as a synthetic GPCR, able to transmit conformational information from one side of a bilayer membrane to the other. The action combines the experience of the researcher in the preparation and study of SQs with the expertise of the host group in the development of transmembrane devices. While the fellow will bring new knowledge in synthetic and supramolecular chemistry to the host group, he will acquire valuable experience in the analysis and biophysics of membranes.
Preventing recurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax after thoracoscopic surgery: A review of recent results

Spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) is now commonly treated with thoracoscopic surgery, which is associated with less pain and a shorter hospital stay than thoracotomy; however, in its initial stages, thoracoscopic stapled bullectomy resulted in an unexpectedly high incidence of postoperative SP recurrence. Thus, new thoracoscopic procedures, designed to be performed in addition to stapled bullectomy, were developed, which resulted in a gradual decline in the postoperative recurrence rate. We review the recent literature on SP recurrence after thoracoscopic surgery with these other surgical procedures. Pleurectomy and pleural abrasion have been performed for a long time with low recurrence rates; however, they cause the lung to adhere to the parietal pleura, often resulting in complications such as postoperative bleeding. Other surgical procedures that may be recommended to minimize the risk of recurrence are reinforcement of the staple lines using fleece-coated glue or an absorbable sheet. These procedures are now considered to be the thoracoscopic treatment of choice for SP.
