Published: November 2023

Apresenta-se, neste artigo, uma síntese teórica, de um estudo maior, sobre a interação conhecimento, emoções e afetividade no ensino aprendizagem dos conteúdos escolares no ensino fundamental menor. Toma-se como referencial a abordagem histórico-cultural do desenvolvimento humano, segundo a qual, a vida psíquica, entrelaçada aos aspectos emocionais, afetivos e intelectuais, constitui uma única unidade do funcionamento mental humano. As funções psicológicas devem ser examinas como constituídas e transformadas no âmago das relações sociais, mediadas pela cultura e pela evolução do processo histórico. A importância de se fazer essa discussão deve-se à necessidade de mostrar a vida emocional e afetiva como constitutiva de um todo um processo enraizado na cultura e nas relações sociais. Ainda, trazer elementos analíticos que apresentam os indícios de indissociável interação entre conhecimento, emoção e afetividade e chamar a atenção para a importância de se considerar essa interação no processo de ensino-aprendizagem nas classes do ensino fundamental.
A POTÊNCIA INFANTIL DESAFIA A AUTORIDADE ADULTA: AS CRIANÇAS REIVINDICAM SEUS LUGARES DE ATORES SOCIAIS
Authors: Urrutia Keila de Oliveira
Published: November 2023

Este artigo origina-se de uma pesquisa de mestrado realizada com um grupo de crianças de uma turma de pré-escola. Assentada nos pressupostos da metodologia qualitativa de cunho etnográfico a pesquisa buscou compreender como as culturas infantis eram produzidas pelas crianças e consideradas pelos adultos a partir dos conceitos de Reprodução Interpretativa e Cultura de Pares do autor William Corsaro. Neste artigo tentamos traduzir um pouco do que pudemos escutar e aprender com as crianças, principalmente no que se refere ao conceito de cultura de pares e as formas como as crianças se colocam frente a autoridade e regras impostas pelos adultos. Durante a realização da pesquisa foi possível perceber e escutar muitas vozes das infâncias representadas pelas crianças do contexto da pesquisa. Vozes estas que expressavam concepções de mundo genuínas e inovadoras em suas formas de se comunicarem, interagirem com seus pares e se estabelecerem no mundo. O lugar de ator social das crianças naquele contexto não estava estabelecido mas era reivindicado por elas cotidianamente através de suas diferentes ações expressas por meio de brincadeiras e manifestações de resistência a ordem imposta pelos adultos. Dessa forma, o que nos parece ser importante, é que a pesquisa demonstrou a necessidade das crianças serem vistas a partir de si mesmas, que suas vozes e demandas sejam percebidas e acolhidas, enfim que sejam consideradas sujeitos sociais plenos e produtores de culturas.
Investigating the Additionality of Islamic Blended Financing for Supporting Awqaf Projects
Authors: ALSAWADY Yoseph , EL AMRİ Mohamed Cherif , OMAR MOHAMMED Mustafa
Published: November 2023

It is observed that financing revenue generating awqaf projects to serve socio-economic development purposes requires considerations and provides opportunities that are different from those of typical development finance. Notably, the positive impact of these projects fully depends on their ability to generate revenue utilizable for social purposes, requiring minimization of the debt burden on such projects. Furthermore, the nature of awqaf projects provides an excellent avenue to attract legacy-conscious donors, looking for long-term impact. In light of these observations, the pertinent question that arises is: what is the impact of using Islamic blended financing to support revenue generating awqaf projects? The literature has been silent on this issue. The present study examines the extent to which this type of financing increases the positive impact of developing awqaf projects and how blending the various Islamic commercial contracts (mainly exchange and sharing contracts with contributory contracts) decreases the net financing burden and makes awqaf financing more concessional. The study is based on a qualitative review of two case studies from the Islamic Development Bank’s Awqaf Properties Investment Fund (APIF). This review leads to various policy recommendations that can be adopted by relevant stakeholders to enhance the impact of developing awqaf properties.

Examining the Pedagogical and Institutional Phenomena that Influence the Facilitation of Critical Consciousness
Authors: Pollard Barb Anne
Published: November 2023

This study engaged grounded theory methodology to explore how critical pedagogy shaped and influenced the development of critical consciousness among preservice teacher candidates. The teacher participants revealed that facilitating critical consciousness was a complex process influenced by pedagogical and institutional mechanisms. The pedagogical mechanism of coercive power and the institutional mechanism of compressed time both limited opportunities for student agency and constrained the development of critical consciousness. Two professors were successful in countering the negative consequences of these institutional and pedagogical mechanisms by enacting a legitimate form of power and facilitating dialogical learning contexts. These efforts are highlighted in the paper as key attributes of consciousness raising learning experiences among the preservice teachers. Keywords: preservice teachers, critical pedagogy, critical consciousness, Faculty of Education, course-based learning experiences Cette étude, qui repose sur une méthodologie inspirée de la théorie à base empirique, explore la mesure dans laquelle la pédagogie critique a influencé le développement d’une conscience critique chez des enseignants en formation. Les enseignants participants ont révélé que la promotion de la conscience critique est un processus complexe qui est influencé par des mécanismes pédagogiques et institutionnels. Le mécanisme pédagogique du pouvoir coercitif et le mécanisme institutionnel du calendrier comprimé limitent tous les deux la marge de manœuvre des étudiants et contraignent le développement de la conscience critique. Deux professeurs ont réussi à contrer les conséquences négatives de ces mécanismes institutionnels et pédagogiques en exerçant une forme de pouvoir légitime et en facilitant des contextes d’apprentissage dialogique. L’article présente ces efforts comme étant les caractéristiques principales des expériences d’apprentissage ayant favorisé la prise de conscience chez les enseignants en formation. Mots clés: enseignants en formation; pédagogie critique; conscience critique; faculté d’éducation; expériences d’apprentissage basées sur les cours
The Association Between Perceived Care From Family, School Staff, and Other Social Agents and an Adolescent’s Presentation of Empathy, Trait Resilience, and Psychological Strengths
Authors: Leung Tiffany SY , Rawana Edward , Klein Rupert
Published: November 2023

The abilities to experience and understand another person’s feelings (empathy), to successfully cope with stress (resilience), and to harness personal skills (psychological strengths) are dynamic qualities that may be associated to an adolescent’s perception of care from others (i.e., family, friends, school staff, and significant others). Although the association of these different social sources have been studied independently, it has yet to be elucidated which of these sources is most highly associated to the presentation of these three qualities. For this study, high school students from a northern community completed a series of online questionnaires. A series of hierarchical regressions showed each source of care accounted for unique variance in the presentation of resilience and strengths, with perceived care from school staff and family accounting for the greatest variance, emphasizing the equal importance of examining the school and home environment. Further research is needed to understand how teachers and the school culture are associated with personal growth. Keywords: adolescent growth, resilience, psychological strengths, positive psychology, social support Les capacités de ressentir et de comprendre les sentiments d’autrui (l’empathie), de bien gérer le stress (la résilience) et d’exploiter ses compétences personnelles (forces psychologiques) sont des qualités dynamiques qui peuvent être associées à la perception qu’ont les adolescents des soins dispensés par les autres (c.-à-d., la famille, les amis, le personnel de l’école et l’être cher). Si l’association de ces différentes sources sociales a été étudiée indépendamment pour chacune d’elles, il reste à comprendre laquelle est la plus fortement liée aux trois qualités décrites ci-haut. Dans le cadre de cette étude, des élèves du secondaire provenant d’une communauté du nord ont complété une série de questionnaires en ligne. Une série de régressions hiérarchiques a démontré que chaque source de soins expliquait une variance unique dans la présentation de la résilience et des forces. Les soins perçus de la part du personnel de l’école et de la famille représentent la plus grande variance, ce qui souligne l’importance de se pencher tant sur le milieu scolaire que le milieu familial. Il faudrait mener des recherches plus poussées pour comprendre dans quelle mesure les enseignants et la culture scolaire sont associés à l’épanouissement personnel.

LGBTQ+ youth experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic as observed through gender-sexuality alliances
Authors: Angela Baerwolf
Published: November 2023

Many of the factors that put LGBTQ+ youth at risk for poor mental health outcomes before the COVID-19 pandemic were exacerbated by the period of home confinement during the pandemic. The following exploratory study investigated the experiences of LGBTQ+ youth during the pandemic as perceived by Gender-Sexuality Alliance (GSA) advisors. In October-November 2021, recruitment began for a qualitative survey shared via a closed Facebook group for GSA advisors in a Midwestern state, in addition to an email sent by a nonprofit supporting GSAs in that state. Advisors were asked to complete the survey in reference to their experience facilitating these school clubs from March 2020-March 2021, a period during the pandemic that saw the highest number of restrictions around home confinement along with schools moving to a virtual format. Findings included themes reflecting impacts of the level of caregiver acceptance on access to support, youth engaging in support-seeking behaviors, and enhancements and challenges of virtual meetings. Implications for social work intervention are shared, focusing on supporting caregivers on a path toward acceptance of their child and advocating for policies that transform the culture and the conversation from whether LGBTQ+ youth can exist as themselves in some spaces, to fully embracing their identity as valued members of society.

Authors: Mantulak Andrew , Nicholas David , Nelson Hilary , Crocker Julisa
Published: November 2023

A mixed method study utilized surveys and focus groups to explore the perceptions of nephrology social workers in Canada regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their practice with patients and their families. As part of this larger study, participants were invited to focus groups which elicited pandemic experiences, personally and professionally, and to offer post-pandemic recommendations for nephrology social work. The sample comprised 15 nephrology social workers from several Canadian provinces, who provided in-depth reflections regarding the impact of the pandemic on professional practice.
Study results reflect COVID-19 pandemic-related experiences of Canadian nephrology social workers, including psychosocial impacts as well as practice and infrastructure shifts. In providing service to patients and families, nephrology social workers were forced to confront personal, professional and organizational landscapes altered by hospital and broader societal public health guidelines aimed at decreasing the spread of COVID-19. Although an inherently challenging experience, participating social workers concurrently noted areas of growth that resulted from pandemic circumstances..

Today, a large number of methods are used to combat the flow of sand along with the reservoir fluid, which must be divided into the following groups: improving the operating conditions of wells, under which sand rises along with the fluid from the well; creation of technology and equipment that allow retaining sand in the annulus. Methods that are used according to the first group are rarely used due to the fact that conditions arise for hydroabrasive wear of all equipment that comes into contact with sand, disturbance of the formation structure in the bottomhole formation zone, sand deposits in surface equipment and in the well sump when wells are shut down. The most promising method of combating these manifestations are technologies and equipment used according to the second group: injection of cement, foam-cement and cement-sand mixtures into the annulus of the well bottom zone; downhole filter application; injection of sand with a large fraction of grains and gravel into the bottomhole zone of wells; injection of synthetic resins into the annulus of the bottomhole zone of the well; combined methods, including the above. Titanium screens and gravel packs are the most effective means of preventing formation failure. Keywords: downhole reservoir; sand plug; well; steam-thermal impact.

When extracting oil and gas from underground reservoirs, fluids such as water, CO2, polymer solutions, and surfactant solutions are often injected to displace the hydrocarbon resources. However, the presence of high-permeable layers, channels, and fractures in the reservoirs can hinder the efficiency of the displacement processes. The displacing fluids tend to channel through these high-permeability features, leaving behind significant amounts of hydrocarbon in low-permeability zones, which remain unswept. Recent developments in nanocomposite hydrogels, such as PPGs, have shown promising results for water shutoff due to their thermal stability and deformability. In this study, a preformed particle gel with nano additive (NC-PPG) was developed through free radical polymerization of AM, AMPS, and nanoclay. Nanoclay nanoparticles were found to act as physical cross-linkers in the polymer network, leading to smaller pore sizes and slightly enhanced thermal stability. The addition of an appropriate amount of nanoclay nanoparticles significantly improved the swelling rate and mechanical properties of NC-PPG. The presented composition also showed good salt tolerance, as evidenced by its compatibility with highly saline formation water and the plugging rate and RRF of 0.25% NC-PPG solution, which were 94.3% and 17.6, respectively, in the sand-pack flowing experiment. These results suggest that NC-PPG has the potential to effectively plug the high permeability zones in mature reservoirs, making it a suitable candidate for water shutoff treatment and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) strategies. The ability of NC-PPG to improve sweep efficiency and control water flow in reservoirs can contribute to more efficient oil production and reservoir management practices. Keywords: enhanced oil recovery; water shut-off; plugging efficiency; preformed particle gel; nanoclay; sweep efficiency.

This article presents the laboratory development of a novel rigless, self-selective water shut-off technique. The technique involves the design and pumping of three different fluids through fractured core plugs in a specific sequence. The first fluid serves to temporarily block porous medium while moving freely through fractures. The second fluid is a cross-linking polymer gelant, which is injected immediately after the first fluid at a pressure below the fracture pressure of the formation to block fractures. An enzyme-based chemical breaker solution, serving as the third fluid, is evaluated for removing the filter-forming materials. The treatment and flow studies are conducted using a high-pressure, high-temperature core flow setup. In conclusion, the developed water control technology presented in this study offers a low-cost solution for fractured and high-anomaly wells. The technology is particularly effective when there is a significant permeability contrast between the oil-bearing matrix and water-conductive fractures. The results demonstrate a successful blockage of fracture, with minimal contamination of porous medium. The study also highlights important factors to consider for the field application of this technology. It is recommended to conduct customized laboratory investigations under simulated reservoir conditions prior to implementing the technology in the field. This will help optimize the treatment design and ensure its effectiveness in real-world applications. Keywords: water shut-off; temporary blocking agent; gel composition; coreflood; permeability contrast.

The article studies the economic effect of foreign direct investment in the oil and gas sector of Azerbaijan. As a study result it was determined that it is most appropriate to direct foreign investments to the sectors capable of creating high added value. Since these investments are mainly oriented to industrial production and processing sector, there are wide export opportunities here. For the economic development of the oil and gas industry, it is advisable to increase the qualitative component of foreign direct investment. In general, the directions of foreign direct investment in the oil and gas sector correspond to the interests of the Republic of Azerbaijan, which means that it is necessary to increase the efficiency of foreign direct investment. This is possible due to optimization of strategic and operational business processes at the level of investor companies. Thus, as a result of the study, it can be said that the inflow of foreign direct investment in the oil and gas sector has had a positive impact on economic growth in the country as a whole. Keywords: oil and gas sector; foreign investment; foreign direct investment; investment environment assessment; economic development.

Study of gas and liquid separation in a closed drilling well with self-propelled drilling rigs
Authors:   Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University, Baku, Azerbaijan, Ibrahimov Р. S.
Published: November 2023

The article deals with the gas release in the process of drilling wells from jack-up drilling rigs. The article attempts to analyze the nature of the change in pressure at the blowout of the preventer after its closure due to gas releases on jack-up drilling rigs. Numerous observations in drilling rigs have shown that the pressure value increases rapidly to a maximum, then gradually decreases and stabilizes at a certain value. There are cases when the value of pressure increases rapidly. Then, without decreasing, it stabilizes. It is proposed that the phenomenon of gas segregation in a well, leading to an increase in pressure, has theoretical and practical significance. In addition, in a real well, a change in bottom hole pressure can occur under various conditions, if the rate of pressure growth due to gas segregation in the riser pipes is greater than the pressure rate due to the work of the formation, while part of the fluid from the well must be squeezed out into the formation. Keywords: well drilling; gas release; complications; open fountain; drilling fluid; preventer; gas segregation; oil and gas.

Current guidelines for legal timber harvests are not sustainable. Timber yields can be substantially enhanced by the application of cost-effective silvicultural treatments that increase stocking and growth of timber trees. Growing interest in tropical forest restoration offers opportunities to promote the management of secondary and degraded forests for timber, and mixed plantations with native species. Timber yields from these restored areas would reduce pressure on natural forests – allowing larger areas to be set aside for protection and reducing harvesting intensity in natural forests.
Impact of Ecological Momentary Interventions on Regulatory Strategies of Perceived Stress at Work: An Exploratory Study Based on the Application "MON SHERPA” Used in an Ecological Context
Authors: Perreau Emilie , Belouahchi Sarah , Castel Davy , Loup-Escande Emilie
Published: November 2023

Based on ICT, specifically smartphones and their mobile apps, this exploratory study questions the impact of EMIs on employees' perceived stress during workdays. A sample of 15 workers, working at least 3 days a week and divided into one control group (n=5) and one experimental group (n=10), used an EMI application called "Mon Sherpa" for one week. Participants responded to two questionnaires at the beginning of the study: a sociodemographic questionnaire and the PSM-9 (Psychological Stress Measure). They completed the PSM-9 once again in the middle and at the end of the experiment to compare the score's evolution depending on the formed groups. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants of the experimental group (n=9) to identify their perception of the application. The statistical results indicated no effects of the EMIs. However, interviews indicated somatic, behavioral, and cognitive evolution throughout the experiment in the field of stress, anxiety, and invasive thoughts. These conflicting results might be explained by an immediate but not lasting effect of EMIs on work-related stress. It may also be partly explained by some limitations of the study. More cross-disciplinary and larger research is required.

Published: November 2023

The present study evaluates the possible radioprotective effect of Grewia asiatica fruit (rich in anthocyanin, carotenes, vitamin C, etc.) pulp extract (GAE) on cerebrum of Swiss albino mice exposed to 5 Gy gamma radiation. For this, healthy mice from an inbred colony were divided into four groups: (1) Control (vehicle treated), (2) GAE treated – mice in this group were orally supplemented with GAE (700 mg/kg. b.w. /day) once daily for fifteen consecutive days, (3) Vehicle treated irradiated mice, and (4) GAE + Irradiated – Mice in this group received distilled water orally equivalent to GAE (700 mg/kg. b.w./day) for fifteen days consecutively. Mice were sacrificed at various intervals viz. 1–30 days. Radiation-induced augmentation in the levels of lipid peroxidation of mice cerebrum was significantly ameliorated by GAE pretreatment. Radiation-induced depletion in the level of glutathione and protein was prevented significantly by GAE administration.
Differential endocrine response in rams to intracerebroventricular infusion of genistein
Authors: Misztal* Tomasz , Górski Konrad , Romanowicz And
Published: November 2023

The intracerebroventricular infusions of genistein (total 40 µg) were made in male sheep (November) to test its influence on melatonin, growth hormone (GH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion. The analysis of the results encompassed 3 similar periods: before the infusion (afternoon hours), the first (evening hours), and the second (night hours) halves of the treatment. The night plasma concentration of melatonin in genistein-infused rams was significantly lower than that noted during the respective period in vehicle-infused rams. Plasma GH concentration increased significantly in both vehicle- and genistein-infused rams during the night hours, as compared with the concentrations noted during the afternoon and evening, however, genistein significantly stimulated the amplitude of GH pulses in these latter. The LH concentration was significantly lower during the second part of genistein treatment, than in vehicle-infused rams. The frequency and amplitude of LH pulses clearly tended to decrease following genistein infusion. In conclusion, genistein, acting at the central nervous system level in sexually active rams is able to reduce the secretion of melatonin and LH and has also a slight stimulatory effect on the amplitude of GH pulses.

Different theories conceptualise dyslexia as either a phonological, attentional, auditory, magnocellular, or automatisation deficit. Such heterogeneity suggests the existence of yet unrecognised subtypes of dyslexics suffering from distinguishable deficits. The purpose of the study was to identify cognitive subtypes of dyslexia. Out of 642 children screened for reading ability 49 dyslexics and 48 controls were tested for phonological awareness, auditory discrimination, motion detection, visual attention, and rhythm imitation. A combined cluster and discriminant analysis approach revealed three clusters of dyslexics with different cognitive deficits. Compared to reading-unimpaired children cluster no. 1 had worse phonological awareness; cluster no. 2 had higher attentional costs; cluster no. 3 performed worse in the phonological, auditory, and magnocellular tasks. These results indicate that dyslexia may result from distinct cognitive impairments. As a consequence, prevention and remediation programmes should be specifically targeted for the individual child's deficit pattern.
Spatiotemporal dynamics of astroglial and microglial responses after photothrombotic stroke in the rat brain

Published: November 2023

The effects of photothrombotic stroke in primary somatosensory cortex on astroglial and microglial activation in various regions of lesioned brain were examined at different time points, using immunohistochemistry and lectin binding. The increase in GFAP expression was observed exclusively in the ipsilateral hemisphere, both in the perilesional area and cortical regions distant from the infarct. This remote increase was detectable up to sixty days after the infarct. Transient GFAP elevation was also found in the hippocampus one day after photothrombosis, whereas it was more prolonged in amygdala, as demonstrated at four days after lesion. In contrast to a widespread astrocytic activation, the microglial response was shortlasting and local, confined to lesion and perilesional area. Widespread and prolonged activation of astrocytes after stroke may provide factors promoting slowly developing recovery processes in the whole brain, while microglial response seems to be involved in local repair and removal of cellular debris.

Published: November 2023

Nigrostriatal neurons expressing RET protein, a receptor protein tyrosine kinase of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), were investigated in rats using retrograde neural tracing with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) combined with immunohistochemistry. HRP/RET double-labeled neurons were abundantly distributed in the substantia nigra pars compacta ipsilateral to the caudate-putamen stereotaxically injected with HRP. Almost all the HRP-labeled neurons in nigra exhibited RET-like immunoreactivity, which however constituted more than half of the RET-immunoreactive cells. Our results present morphological evidence that GDNF-RET interaction plays important roles in physiological processes of nigrostriatal neuronal circuits of mammals.

Published: November 2023

This study examines possible interactions between behavioral effects and influence of N-methyl-D-aspartate acid (NMDA) receptors in 4 and 12-week streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. Effects of NMDA receptor agonist on spatial learning were tested in control groups of rats and in rats with 4 and 12 weeks diabetes mellitus (DM). Experimental diabetes was induced by a single intravenous injection of streptozotocin at a dose of 65 mg/kg, dissolved in citrate buffer. We used the water maze task and examined the acquisition and the retrieval of spatial memory in rats. In our present experiments, we observed that DM had no significant influence on acquisition and retrieval in 4 week diabetic rats on Morris water maze, but impaired examined parameters in 12 week diabetic rats in this test. The NMDA receptor agonist did not influence acquisition but increased recall on water maze in 12 week streptozotocin diabetic rats.
Devices for handling small mammals in laboratory conditions
Authors: Stryjek Rafał
Published: November 2023

Wild rodents, and especially rats, are significantly more difficult to handle, maintain and breed than laboratory rats and mice. They can be characterized as more skittish, neophobic and aggressive. While establishing a breeding colony of wild Norwegian rats (Rattus norvegicus) I developed some helpful devices and I will describe them here. In this paper I also describe the techniques for transporting animals between their home cages, separating them inside cages, and catching individuals that escape. These devices do not require any home cage modification. They may be modified for size. With size modification these devices may be used for handling animals in any type of laboratory cages. They may be used with all species of small mammals, for example, mice, gerbils, hamster, and opossums. They prove especially helpful when physical contact with humans is a problem (e.g. SPF conditions of breeding, and behavioral procedures that do not allow handling).

Published: November 2023

Taking tissue engineering applications into clinical trials requires the development of efficient and safe protocols incorporated with effective 3-dimentional cell culturing and differentiation systems in order to develop transplantable tissues that may offer a life-line for patients in the future. Cord blood, which is perhaps the most abundant world stem cell source, has shown previously practical and ethical advantages over other stem cells sources in many research and clinical applications including regenerative medicine. We previously developed a three-step protocol for isolation, expansion and sequential neuronal differentiation of cord blood pluripotent stem cells (characterized with our unique triple immunocytochemisty scheme for Oct-4, Sox-2 and Nanog) in defined serum-free culturing conditions. In this study we incorporated this protocol with 3-dimentional culturing systems which produced artificial neuronal tissues expressing Nestin, NF-200, TUJ1, PSD-95 and NeuN. We showed that cord blood pluripotent stem cells are a potential and promising candidate for future neural tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Published: November 2023

Tottering mouse is an ataxic mutant that carries a mutation in a gene encoding for the ?1A subunit of P/Q-type Ca2+ channel (Cav2.1). This study revisited to examine whether a Purkinje cell loss occurred in the cerebellum of tottering mice. In tottering mice, Calbindin D-28k negative gaps were apparent in the vermis but not in the hemisphere. Calbindin D-28k immunofluorescence with DAPI staining demonstrated the absence of Purkinje cells in the Calbindin D-28k negative gaps. The Purkinje cell loss seemed to be observed prominently in the zebrin II negative compartments of the anterior vermis, but in the zebrin II positive compartments of the posterior vermis. Quite consistent with the histopathological observations, quantitation of the density of Calbindin D-28k and zebrin II immunopositive Purkinje cells in the tottering cerebellum revealed that the Purkinje cells were selectively lost in the zebrin II immunonegative compartments of the lobules I and II but in the zebrin II immunopositive compartments in the lobule IX. Those results predict that the susceptibility to the Cav2.1 gene defect is different among Purkinje cell phenotypes of the tottering cerebellum rather than the expression pattern of mutated Cav2.1 channels. This may result in the reproducible parasagittal pattern of Purkinje cell loss.
