A direct interaction between survivin and myosin II is required for cytokinesis
Authors: Babkoff Aryeh , Cohen-Kfir Einav , Aharon Hananel , Ronen Daniel , Rosenberg Michael , Wiener Reuven , Ravid Shoshana
Published: July 2019

An acto-myosin contractile ring, which forms after anaphase onset and is highly regulated in time and space, mediates cytokinesis, the final step of mitosis. The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), composed of Aurora-B kinase, INCENP, borealin and survivin (also known as BIRC5), regulates various processes during mitosis, including cytokinesis. It is not understood, however, how CPC regulates cytokinesis. We show that survivin binds to non-muscle myosin II (NMII), regulating its filament assembly. Survivin and NMII interact mainly in telophase, and Cdk1 regulates their interaction in a mitotic-phase-specific manner, revealing the mechanism for the specific timing of survivin–NMII interaction during mitosis. The survivin–NMII interaction is indispensable for cytokinesis, and its disruption leads to multiple mitotic defects. We further show that only the survivin homodimer binds to NMII, attesting to the biological importance for survivin homodimerization. We suggest a novel function for survivin in regulating the spatio-temporal formation of the acto-NMII contractile ring during cytokinesis and we elucidate the role of Cdk1 in regulating this process.

A novel mechanism of mixing by pulsing corals
Authors: Samson Julia E. , Miller Laura A. , Ray Dylan , Holzman Roi , Shavit Uri , Khatri Shilpa
Published: July 2019

The dynamic pulsation of the xeniid corals is one of the most fascinating phenomena observed in coral reefs. We quantify for the first time the flow near the tentacles of these soft corals whose active pulsations are thought to enhance their symbionts’ photosynthetic rates by up to an order of magnitude. These polyps are about 1 cm in diameter and pulse at frequencies between about 0.5 and 1 Hz. As a result, the frequency-based Reynolds number calculated using the tentacle length and pulse frequency is on the order of 10 and rapidly decays as one moves away from the polyp. This introduces the question of how these corals minimize the reversibility of the flow and bring in new volumes of fluid during each pulse. We estimate that the Péclet number of the bulk flow generated by the coral as being on the order of 100-1000 while the flow between the bristles of the tentacles is on the order of 10. This illustrates the importance of advective transport in removing oxygen waste. Flow measurements using particle image velocimetry reveal that the individual polyps generate a jet of water with positive vertical velocities that do not go below 0.1 cm/s and with average volumetric flow rates of about 0.71 cm3/s. Our results show that there is nearly continual flow in the radial direction towards the polyp with only about 3.3% back flow. 3D numerical simulations uncover a region of slow mixing between the tentacles during expansion. We estimate that the average flow that moves through the bristles of the tentacles is about 0.03 cm/s. The combination of nearly continual flow towards the polyp, slow mixing between the bristles, and the subsequent ejection of this fluid volume into an upward jet ensures the polyp continually samples new water with sufficient time for exchange to occur.

Research integrity is an essential and integral part of scientific research ethics. It is commonly accepted that the value of scientific research vitally depends on the fulfillment of research integrity codes of conduct. The unbreakable linkage (relation) between research value and research integrity does not reflect only its attachment to the application of proper scientific method but also its acceptance from the society. In this work we present a survey on the organization of the institutions of research integrity in international, European and national level. Emphasis is given in the description of the present state in Greece in the level of Higher Educational Institutes, Research Centers and Committees. Also, we focus on the actions taken from National Technical University of Athens, as well as the initiative from EARTHnet network and their efforts for institutionalization of a common code of conduct in scientific research at a national level.

Nonzero-Sum Stochastic Differential Games with Impulse Controls: A Verification Theorem with Applications
Authors: Aïd René , Basei Matteo , Callegaro Giorgia , Campi Luciano , Vargiolu Tiziano
Published: July 2019

We consider a general nonzero-sum impulse game with two players. The main mathematical contribution of this paper is a verification theorem that provides, under some regularity conditions, a suitable system of quasi-variational inequalities for the payoffs and the strategies of the two players at some Nash equilibrium. As an application, we study an impulse game with a one-dimensional state variable, following a real-valued scaled Brownian motion, and two players with linear and symmetric running payoffs. We fully characterize a family of Nash equilibria and provide explicit expressions for the corresponding equilibrium strategies and payoffs. We also prove some asymptotic results with respect to the intervention costs. Finally, we consider two further nonsymmetric examples where a Nash equilibrium is found numerically.

Endoscope decontamination: making the guidance work in practice
Authors: Chapman Warren
Published: July 2019

Endoscope decontamination prevents cross-infection and misdiagnosis. Legislation and guidance exist to ensure this, and Joint Advisory Group (JAG) accreditation is dependent on correct adherence. Due to their cost and complex construction, endoscopes have to be decontaminated between patients. Manual cleaning is an integral part of the decontamination process and helps ensure prions, which can transmit Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), are cleared. Guidelines and standards include Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) Top Ten Tips, British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG) guidance, Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) advice and the health technical memorandum, MTH-01-06. Over recent years, guidance has been updated. Changes incorporate tracking and traceability, levels of essential practice and best practice requirements, time from bedside clean to endoscope washer disinfection processing and issues around CJD. Guidance includes following the manual decontamination process, use of endoscope washer disinfectors, choice of disinfectants, rinse-water quality, safety, endoscope storage, operational management, environmental design and training. By following the most up-to-date guidance and legislation, nurses can ensure the safety of both patients and staff.

Authors: K. Moorthi Puvaniswaran , Shrivastava Preeti , Krishnan Soundarajan
Published: July 2019

Biodiesel is a renewable energy source which is derived as an alternate fuel for diesel engine. It is produced by transesterification process. Moringa oleifera seed oil has been extracted using n-hexane by solvent extraction method. The high flashpoint of Moringa oleifera oil is a beneficial safety feature so that it can safely be stored at room temperature. The study examines the production of biodiesel using Moringa oleifera seed oil with sodium silicate as catalyst and different co-solvents. The biodiesel produced from Moringa oleifera seed oil exhibits high yield using diethyl-ether as co-solvent with 60oC as the reaction temperature and 1 hour as the reaction time. Furthermore, the optimum ratio of methanol to oil is 7:1 and the amount of catalyst required to produce highest yield is 0.30 g. Moreover, the optimum ratio of methanol to co-solvent is 1:1 ratio. It has been found that the saponification value and free fatty acid are 170.2 mg of KOH/ g of oil and 0.33 %, respectively. The moisture content of biodiesel is 0.04% with higher calorific value when compared to diesel and vegetable oil. The pH and cloud point of biodiesel recorded are 7.37 and 18oC, respectively. All these values have been found to be within the range of American Standard for Testing Material for biodiesel. Only the acid value has fallen outside the ASTM limits. Hence, it can be concluded that biodiesel produced from Moringa oleifera seed oil has the potential to be an alternate fuel and the energy of the future.

Published: July 2019

The combination of Irish potato waste (IPW) and poultry waste (PW) can form a synergy resulting into an effective substrate for a better biogas production due to some materials they contain. In this work, optimization and kinetic study of biogas production from anaerobic digestion of IPW and PW was investigated. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize conditions such as initial pH, solids concentrations and waste ratios. The anaerobic digestion of the two wastes was carried out in the mesophilic condition and Box-Behnken design (BBD) was used to develop and analyze a predictive model which describes the biogas yield. The results revealed that there is a good fit between the experimental and the predicted biogas yield as revealed by the coefficient of determination (R2) value of 97.93%. Optimization using quadratic RSM predicts biogas yield of 19.75% at the optimal conditions of initial pH value 7.28, solids concentration (w/v) 9.85% and waste ratio (IPW:PW) 45:55%. The reaction was observed to have followed a first order kinetics having R2 and relative squared error (RSE) values of 90.61 and 9.63% respectively. Kinetic parameters, such as rate constant and half-life of the biogas yield were evaluated at optimum conditions to be 0.0392 day-1 and 17.68 days respectively. The optimum conditions and kinetic parameters generated from this research can be used to design real bio-digesters, monitor substrate concentrations, simulate biochemical processes and predict performance of bio-digesters using IPW and PW as substrate.

MASYARAKAT MUSLIM THAILAND DAN DAMPAK PSIKOLOGIS KEBIJAKAN ASIMILASI BUDAYA
Authors: Kusuma Bayu Mitra Adhyatma
Published: July 2019

Thailand merupakan sebuah negara berpenduduk mayoritas Budha dengan sebagian kecil lainnya beragama Islam dan Konghucu. Lebih dari itu Budha juga ditetapkan sebagai agama resmi negara. Muslim di Thailand pada umumnya tinggal di wilayah selatan khusunya provinsi Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat ditambah sebagian Satun dan Songkhla. Sebagaimana kondisi masyarakat minoritas pada umumnya, Melayu Muslim di Thailand kerap mendapatkan tindakan diskriminasi dalam berbagai aspek kehidupan. Salah satu bentuk diskriminasi terberat yang dialami oleh minoritas Melayu Muslim di Thailand adalah kebijakan asimilasi budaya yang diterapkan secara paksa oleh pemerintah Thailand sejak rezim Jenderal Phibul Songkhram, dimana dalam kebijakan tersebut Thai Budha ditetapkan sebagai identitas dan budaya tunggal Thailand. Kebijakan asimilasi budaya adalah bentuk nyata perang psikologi melalui kekerasan kultural yang dilakukan untuk menghapus budaya Melayu Islam di seluruh wilayah Thailand. Dalam kebijakan tersebut terdapat larangan penggunaan nama, bahasa dan identitas Melayu Islam lainnya dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Terlebih untuk dapat diterima di sekolah negeri dan bekerja instansi pemerintah, identitas Melayu Muslim relatif harus ditanggalkan. Kondisi tersebut mengakibatkan masyarakat Melayu Muslim mengalami culture shock berat yang membuat mereka menjadi sangat tertekan. Lebih dari itu kebijakan asimilasi budaya juga menciptakan stigma bahwa Melayu Muslim adalah kelompok kriminal dibalik jubah agama yang kemudian memunculkan kecurigaan terutama dari etnis Thai. Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian kualitatif pendekatan deskriptif dan menggunakan metode analisis data model interaktif Miles dan Huberman.     Kata Kunci: Muslim Thailand, Dampak Psikologis, Kebijakan Asimilasi Budaya

Восприятие баланса жизни и работы женщинами, работающими в STEM-отраслях (на примере ракетно-космической отрасли)
Authors: Подольская Анна Александровна
Published: July 2019

В статье рассматривается проблема баланса работы и семьи у женщин-инженеров ракетно-космической отрасли. Эмпирическую базу исследования составили 20 полуформализованных интервью с женщинами-инженерами. Половина респонденток имеет несовершеннолетних детей. В фокусе исследования были различные аспекты, которые, по мнению женщин-инженеров, способствуют или препятствуют балансу между работой и семьей: лояльность начальства, вовлеченность супруга в вопросы быта и воспитания ребенка, наличие мер социальной политики на предприятиях и их роль в гармонизации рабочей и семейной сфер, наличие или отсутствие «карьерных барьеров» на работе. Уделяется внимание специфике работы инженеров в отрасли. Кроме этого, в статье рассматривается отношение женщин к таким явлениям, как «стеклянный потолок», «мужские клубы», и их влияние на карьеру женщин в отрасли. По результатам исследования удалось сделать вывод, что сотрудников-женщин воспринимают как профессионалов, способных качественно выполнять монотонную работу, в то время как мужчины значительно чаще вовлечены в руководство проектом в целом, что позволяет им «быть на виду», решать более сложные ответственные задачи и быстрее подняться по карьерной лестнице.

Предприятия отрасли, с одной стороны, благодаря социальной политике и режиму работы способствуют соблюдению баланса между рабочей и семейной сферой, а с другой — препятствуют, ведь отсутствие равных возможностей для карьерного роста вызывают у женщин непонимание и чувство дисбаланса между работой и семьей. Поэтому работа на рассматриваемых предприятиях привлекательна в первую очередь для тех женщин, которые заинтересованы в «удобной» работе, а не в карьерном росте и высоком заработке.
Неравенство жизненных шансов россиян в сфере баланса жизни и труда
Authors: Мареева Светлана Владимировна
Published: July 2019

Возможность достижения баланса жизни и труда может рассматриваться как один из типов жизненных шансов, относящихся к качеству жизни. В статье на эмпирической базе данных общероссийского репрезентативного мониторинга Института социологии ФНИСЦ РАН оценены основные неравенства в возможностях достижения жизненного баланса в целом и в отдельных сферах, составляющих его; особенное внимание уделено непроизводственной деятельности. Показано, что неравенства в сфере жизненного баланса не сглаживают другие монетарные и немонетарные неравенства в жизненных шансах (в частности — относящиеся к экономической сфере жизни), а, наоборот, углубляют их. Сделан вывод, что в российском обществе остается доминирующей вертикальная стратификация, а измерения немонетарного неравенства, связанные с образом и стилем жизни, накладываются на нее, а не становятся основаниями горизонтальной стратификации. Достижение баланса жизни и труда в российском обществе выступает признаком общего благополучного положения в вертикальных иерархиях по другим экономическим и неэкономическим возможностям. Рассмотрен также общий контекст формирования понимания баланса жизни и труда — в частности, показано, что общественные представления о жизненном успехе остаются достаточно традиционными и связаны в первую очередь c реализацией вполне достижимых и дополняющих друг друга, в оценках самого населения, целей в социальной и производственной сфере и стремлением к модели жизни «не хуже, чем у других».

Operating as a Social Enterprise within Resource and Institutional Constraints
Authors: Ismail Ayman , Johnson Brendon
Published: July 2019

This study explores questions around the abilities of social enterprises (SEs) to obtain market-based revenues in the context of a middle-income country with significant institutional and economic constraints (Egypt). Our main research question focuses on analyzing the reasons why SEs in this context are unable to obtain their desired level of market-based revenues. Through the analysis of 22 SEs with some degree of a mixed revenue model, we draw three major conclusions that contribute to both academic theory and SE practice: (a) the importance of investing in new cohorts of SE employees, (b) ways to increase SEs’ ability to respond to institutional barriers, and (c) the promotion of adaptive organizational models able to respond to changing external conditions. The study makes several contributions to the literature. Most importantly, it seeks to add findings to discussion around how SEs operate within constraints by providing real-life empirical data from a context that faces significant institutional and resource barriers. It adds to the current literature by offering insights on organizational capacity, institutions, legitimacy, and adaptability that can be applied to other countries with similar socio-economic contexts. Methodologically, it also makes an effort to move beyond biases of studying only successful SEs, to offer micro-level qualitative analysis of SEs, and to hear unique and potentially alternative perspectives to academic narratives rooted in concept and theory by better understanding how social entrepreneurs themselves perceive their own work and practices.

We investigated the effects of a polyherbal formulation prepared from the extracts of Mondia whitei (Periplocaceae), Dracaena arborea (Dracaenaceae), and Bridelia ferruginea (Euphorbiaceae) (MDB) on the sexual behavior of normal rats (NR) and prediabetic rats (PR).

Methods

Male Wistar rats were administered with drinking fructose solution (21%) or tap water for 16 weeks. After induction of prediabetic status, NR (n = 30) and PR (n = 30) were randomly distributed into 10 groups of six animals each and orally treated with distilled water (10 mL/kg), sildenafil citrate (5 mg/kg), or MDB (50, 100, or 500 mg/kg) for 21 days. Sexual behavior parameters per series (S) of ejaculation were evaluated on days 1, 7, 14, and 21.

Results

Drinking fructose solution (21%) induced prediabetic status in rats, characterized by a significant (p < 0.01) increase in glycemia by 43.41% compared with the control group. MDB improved sexual performances of NR and PR by increasing the mount frequency (MF) and the intromission frequency (IF) as well as the number of rats capable of ejaculating. For instance, the MF and the IF were significantly increased in animals administered with MDB for 7 (50 mg/kg, S1 and S2), 14 (100 mg/kg, S3), or 21 days (100 or 500 mg/kg, S2). This increase was more pronounced on days 7 and 14 in NR and PR treated with sildenafil citrate or MDB extracts, respectively.

Conclusions

The mixture of MDB improved sexual activity in NR and PR. This result may further justify the traditional use of these plants as sexual performance enhancers.
Guardians of neuroimmunity – Toll-like receptors and their RNA ligands

RNA-sensing Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are mostly associated with the recognition of viruses. However, over the last years it has become clear that the function and relevance of these receptors are far more complex. They are essential for the recognition of bacteria, fungi and parasites, leading to transcriptional activation of central nervous system (CNS) resident and invading myeloid cells during infectious meningitis and encephalitis. Moreover, host-derived RNA species interact with TLRs. Injured CNS neurons release small RNAs, e. g. microRNAs, into the extracellular space. Neighboring neurons and microglia take up these RNA molecules via the endosomal route, which provides the opportunity for activation of endosomal TLRs. This process contributes to neuroinflammation and further neuronal injury, thus closing the vicious cycle of CNS damage, as it may occur in numerous CNS disorders including neurodegenerative diseases.

Authors: Bhardwaj Shubhang , Bhardwaj Nishi Kant
Published: July 2019

Surface sizing chemical (mostly oxidized or enzymatically modified starch) flows into the pores of cellulose network and also remains on the surface affecting the surface and intrinsic properties of paper. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) can be used for surface sizing because it is a water soluble polymer and has high film forming ability. Due to economic constraints, using PVA alone for surface sizing is not a good option. Current study explored the effects of using oxidized starch and PVA in mixed ratios (80:20, 50:50 and 20:80) on mechanical and surface properties of paper. The surface sizing with sizing weight of 3.5±0.3 g/m2was done. The results of the study showed that the breaking length, burst index, air permeance, gloss, Cobb60and optical properties like brightness, whiteness, flouroscence of paper were better for mixed ratios in comparison to only oxidized starch. After surface sizing with PVA, the value of air permeance (time of air leak) was increased to 200 Gurley second in comparison to 9 only for base paper. Surface sizing with blends of oxidized starch solution and PVA solution i. e. 80S+20P, 50S+50P and 20S+80P increased the time of air leak by 900 %, 1455 % and 1788 %, respectively in comparison to base paper.
How Moving Together Binds Us Together: The Social Consequences of Interpersonal Entrainment and Group Processes
Authors: Cross Liam , Turgeon Martine , Atherton Gray
Published: July 2019

Interpersonal entrainment has been shown to have a wide variety of social consequences which span far beyond those that could be considered purely pro-social. This work reviews all of the social effects of entrainment and the various explanations for them. The group formation framework emerges as a parsimonious account claiming that as we entrain our sense of self is temporarily diluted as an interdependent identity becomes more salient, thus leading to a range of social and psychological consequences which are pro-group. The sense of belonging arising from moving together is conducive towards pro-social behaviours; yet, it also makes the individual more susceptible to adopting the ideology of the group without critical thinking. We argue that the wide landscape of interpersonal entrainment’s effects reflects its primary effect, de-individuation, and the formation of a common group identity amongst co-actors.
Surface phenomena related to applications regarding optimum dosages of casein superplasticizer in self-leveling underlayment cements
Authors: Bian Hang , Plank Johann
Published: July 2019

We experimentally investigated the optimum dosage of casein superplasticizer (SP) in self-leveling underlayments (SLUs). The undersaturated adsorption state of casein in cement pore solution was characterized by zeta potential measurements. Different amounts of casein were dosed in SLU pastes and their dispersion performance was investigated by a mini slump test. Flow values of the SLU pastes were found to increase with casein dosage, but an obvious segregation of the pastes was observed at high dose levels of SP. At an SP dosage of 0.12 wt.% bwob (by weight of binder), a homogeneous SLU paste with a spread flow of >15 cm over a time span of 30 min was obtained, which was identified as the optimum casein dosage for SLUs. Casein was found to adsorb significantly onto the surface of cement, thus producing strong dispersive power at low dose levels.

Published: July 2019

As the genetic bases to variation in anoxia tolerance are poorly understood, we used the Drosophila Genetics Reference Panel (DGRP) to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of anoxia tolerance in adult and larval Drosophila melanogaster. Survival ranged from 0–100% in adults exposed to 6 h of anoxia and from 20–98% for larvae exposed to 1 h of anoxia. Anoxia tolerance had a broad-sense heritability of 0.552 in adults and 0.433 in larvae. Larval and adult phenotypes were weakly correlated but the anoxia tolerance of adult males and females were strongly correlated. The GWA identified 180 SNPs in adults and 32 SNPs in larvae associated with anoxia tolerance. Gene ontology enrichment analysis indicated that many of the 119 polymorphic genes associated with adult anoxia-tolerance were associated with ionic transport or immune function. In contrast, the 22 polymorphic genes associated with larval anoxia-tolerance were mostly associated with regulation of transcription and DNA replication. RNAi of mapped genes generally supported the hypothesis that disruption of these genes reduces anoxia tolerance. For two ion transport genes, we tested predicted directional and sex-specific effects of SNP alleles on adult anoxia tolerance and found strong support in one case but not the other. Correlating our phenotype to prior DGRP studies suggests that genes affecting anoxia tolerance also influence stress-resistance, immune function and ionic balance. Overall, our results provide evidence for multiple new potential genetic influences on anoxia tolerance and provide additional support for important roles of ion balance and immune processes in determining variation in anoxia tolerance.

Introducción. La magnitud de la lipemia postprandial es un indicador de riesgo cardiovascular, en especial en mujeres con actividad hormonal reducida. Los ejercicios resistidos (ER) podrían ser un factor que influencie las concentraciones de lípidos después de consumir alimentos.Objetivo. Determinar los efectos agudos sobre la lipemia postprandial de mujeres postmenopáusicas que tiene la realización de sesiones de ER de alto y bajo volumen, en comparación a un grupo control.Materiales y métodos. Después de una evaluación inicial (antropometría, perfil lipídico y fitness muscular), 32 mujeres fueron divididas aleatoriamente en tres grupos: uno con ER de alto volumen (n=11), otro con ER de bajo volumen (n=11) y un grupo control sin ER (n=10). 12 horas después de los ejercicios se suministró un compuesto nutricional hiperlipídico y se analizó la lipemia postprandial cada hora durante 5 horas.Resultados. Los diferentes volúmenes de ER no redujeron de manera importante los marcadores lipémicos (colesterol total, triglicéridos, LDL y VLDL) (p>0.05) ni aumentaron las concentraciones plasmáticas de HDL (p>0.05).Conclusiones. Las sesiones de ER no afectaron los marcadores lipémicos postprandiales, aunque sí mostraron resultados clínicos relevantes en los grupos experimentales (reducción de LDL-VLDL y aumento de HDL en momentos específicos).

Sr. Editor:En Chile, en comparación con otros países latinoamericanos, la población de inmigrantes ha aumentado 4.9% durante los últimos cinco años (1), fenómeno que se ha visibilizado en los centros médicos, donde los profesionales de la salud y los pacientes se han visto desafiados a actuar interculturalmente. En efecto, los profesionales de la salud requieren integrar tanto el lenguaje verbal como el no verbal en la interacción directa con pacientes que pertenecen a culturas distintas. Aún más, dichos profesionales deben manejar conocimientos sobre la cultura del paciente, de modo que puedan regular su emocionalidad en las situaciones de incertidumbre a las cuales se pueden ver enfrentados.
