Anethole attenuates lung cancer progression by regulating the proliferation and apoptosis through AKT and STAT3 signaling
Authors: Kumar Venkata , Venkateswarulu Maddula
Published: January 2023

Background: The main constituent of fennel, anethole, exerts beneficial effects in many diseases, including antiproliferative and tumoricidal capacities. This study aimed to investigate the effect of anethole on the human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line, A549, and the related molecular mechanisms.

Methods: The proliferation was assessed by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and colony formation assays. Apoptosis situation was determined using fluorescence-activated cell sorting and DNA fragmentation assay combined with immunoblotting assay probing-related protein expression. Phosphoinositide 3-kinases-protein kinase B (PI3K-AKT) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling proteins were evaluated using immunoblotting. Xenograft model was constructed to determine the tumor volume and weight and to evaluate the expression of Ki67 via immunohistochemistry and cleaved caspase 3 via immunoblotting.

Results: Anethole inhibited proliferation and clonal growth of A549 cells. The promotion of A549 cell apoptosis by anethole was evidenced by increased apoptotic ratio, abundant DNA fragments, and caspase-3 activation. Key proteins in PI3K-AKT and STAT3 signaling pathways were decreased in anethole group. Additionally, xenografted tumors in anethole group retarded with decreased Ki67 and increased cleaved caspase 3 expression.

Conclusions: Anethole induced tumor cell apoptosis and retarded cell proliferation. AKT and STAT3 signaling pathways might be involved in the effects of anethole. Our findings highlight the feasibility of anethole in the treatment of lung cancer.

Published: January 2023

The Integrated Review of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy: Global Britain in a Competitive Age has been published in March 2021. It sets out the United Kingdom’s foreign and security policy approach for the next decade. In the Integrated Review, the international system is described as more competitive, more fragmented, and multipolar. It introduces a new policy approach based on new trends namely geopolitical and geoeconomic shifts; systemic competition; rapid technological change; and transnational challenges in the world post-Covid-19 and post-Brexit. The Global Britain vision labels China as a challenging “systemic competitor” in this new world order. The United Kingdom-China relations have a long history, with a complex nature and include both cooperation and confrontation. This article focuses on the United Kingdom’s China strategy which, according to the Integrated Review, requires a shift in policy making. This article claims that the United Kingdom lacks a clear China strategy although it describes it as the main systemic competitor. It elaborates on the historical developments of bilateral relations and questions the challenges that China pose to security, prosperity, and values from the British perspective.

Authors: Lola Cassiophea  , Vontas Alfenny Nahan
Published: January 2023

SMKN 1 Banama Tingang is a vocational school located on 3 Padat Karya St, Pangi Village, Regency of Pulang Pisau. This school has three departments namely Welding Technology Department, Building Technology Department, and Accounting Department. Welding Technology Department is a department with the least number of students in the school which reflected the low interest in this department. One of reasons for that is due to misperception that this department is for construction worker. Another reason is due to lack of facilities for practice such as water pass. Therefore, one of solutions is to conduct the training for the use of water pass to measure land. During the training it can be seen that the interest in this department is increasing. Many questions were asked by students on how to use water pass. In the training, students were divided into several groups to match the number of water pass brought in this training. Students of PTB were actively involved to assist in the training. The training results showed that the interest of the student had increased, not only students from Building Department, but also from another departments. This indicates that the training was useful especially for the students of the school as well as PTB students involved in the training.

Published: January 2023

To achieve its expansionist regional ambitions in China and Korea, and to protect its shipping lines in the Pacific Ocean, and to justify its claims in protecting East Asia from the dangers of German naval bases, on the one hand, and its endeavor to establish peace and prevent the spread of battles to the Far East, on the other hand. The research was concerned with the nature of these allegations and the extent of their truth, in light of tracking the role of the Japanese naval force during the First World War (1914- 1918), and then the emergence of its international standing until 1921, as the developments witnessed in those years represented an important opportunity for Japan at all levels, especially after Its victories made it a major naval power on the international level. However, the internal problems that always faced the Japanese naval power did not stand in the way of its ambitions, which succeeded in employing war as a means to obtain governmental financial specializations to implement its expansion and development programs, especially in light of the recovery of the Japanese economy during the war years as a result of Europe’s preoccupation with preparing the requirements of the war economy, which provided an opportunity Important for the Japanese industry and its various products in controlling the domestic and foreign markets and developing its heavy industry, especially the construction of warship docks, which led to an increase in its profits and the number of its industrial workers who, in the short term, caused a radical change in the structure of society. Despite its active participation in the First World War on the side of the friendly Entente countries and the protection of its merchant ships in the Mediterranean and its desire to join the European arena of operations, its expansionist ambitions and its attempt to control Siberia and obtain political and regional privileges in China and other regions on the one hand, and continue to increase Its spending on industry that supports the elements of strengthening, expanding and developing its naval power in 1920, in a way that amounts to international standards for its counterparts on the other hand. This led to the fear of Britain, the United States of America and France, and their doubts about Japan's real intentions and future dangers in the Far East and the Pacific Ocean, and then called for a conference in 1921 to determine international naval armaments, in a way that guarantees preventing Japan from being at the level of the major international naval powers.
Leveraging Blockchain Technology Centric Tools in Enhancing the Security Safeguards of Documents Storage
Authors: Dhillon Abhishek
Published: January 2023

The most widely used method for exchanging data worldwide is the Internet. Numerous cloud service providers support this sharing by letting customers store and share data over the Internet. However, cloud service providers have consistently failed to guarantee data's 100% security regarding privacy. Data breaches, piracy, and hacking attacks have threatened cloud providers' security mechanisms. However, customer data should be 100% secure because it may contain private information that should only be accessible to the owner and an intended audience. As a result, making this system more secure is critical to maintaining data privacy and cloud provider trust. We present a system that incorporates cloud-based data security into the Blockchain. It permits clients to store information in the cloud and gives a specific access control component that guarantees information security. Users can share data with others with permission by sharing the document's link with the intended user. The owner will have access to logs of all operations performed with the document at any time. This will guarantee the data's true ownership and privacy. A third party or individual will be permitted to access the document with prior authorization. This will increase cloud storage's security and reduce data breaches and attacks.
How Wearable Devices are Shaping the Insuretech Industry
Authors: Sahni Dr. Gaurav
Published: January 2023

The use of data has been revolutionizing every aspect of human life – both personal and professional. Every individual today is a source of digital data generation, and every business can benefit from access to such data if it is able to shape its strategies on the basis of insights derived from such data. Insurance has been a sector that has relied very heavily on mathematical modelling to devise policy plans that are appealing and beneficial to the target user groups as well as viable for the insurance provider. While such mathematical modelling relied on humongous data volumes, the growth of wearable devices has thrown up even more exciting possibilities ahead. Wearable technology data as a managed service is expected to have a size of $462 million globally in 2027. Wearable devices promise accessibility to live data of various body parameters of a huge population of users, which can help insurance companies build models to develop plans that have a greater utility and are more affordable. With a total of 533.6 million units shipped in 2021, representing a 20% growth over the previous year, we can be certain that as IoT and 5G technology improve, we will see far greater adoption of wearable devices. Along with aiding the development of more market-friendly insurance products, such devices can also help to a large extent in offering proactive healthcare.

Community-Based Tourism is seen for having a huge impact on rural communities in the Philippines and many countries. It is generally known for its pro-poor implications that deliver socio-cultural, ecological, and economic benefits to steer a community if directed with strong policies. CBT has a great potential on elevating the said aspects of a locality for community development. Hence, the researchers attempted to comprehensively determine the perceptions of key actors in CBT with quantitative approaches to shed light on its costs and benefits in the communities of Romblon province in the Philippines. Through quota sampling, a total of 400 residents were surveyed to determine their positive and negative perceptions towards CBT. Structural Equation Modeling was utilized as the statistical analysis tool to impute relationships on the latent variables; sustainable tourism development, politico-administrative affairs and climate, and citizen participation. The model provided empirical evidence that CBT activities positively affect the latent variables in Romblon province. The findings contributed to the great importance of politico-administrative affairs and climate as a support system to enhance tourism laws and programs. The authors, moreover, advocated for further improvements on sustainable tourism development and citizen participation. Among recommendations, in order to assist the tourism stakeholders in the development of CBT, this study proposed sustainable tourism programs focused on enhancement of the quality of life of the locals, fostering collaborations among institutions and the people, and for a sustainable growth of Romblon province
Tourism business clusters: A tool for transforming MSEMs in the tourism industry in Tanzania
Authors: Batinoluho Ladislaus
Published: January 2023

This study explores the need to consider the tourism business cluster’s approach in Tanzania to transform the tourism industry. The methodology for this study was qualitative. The study involved 114 respondents, who were randomly drawn from the sample frame of tourism businesses maintained by the tourism organizations in Tanzania. It was found that over 98 percent of the tourism MSMEs in Tanzania were not familiar with tourism value chains. Even those who seemed to understand the concept (2%) understood only the most visible sub-sectors of travel and tourism, especially at the destination level and on issues such as air, road, rail transport, accommodation, food, and beverage outlets. Over 99 percent of the tourism MSMEs operate in isolation from other sector players in Tanzania. The need for the establishment of tourism clusters is crucial in ensuring that Tanzania destination continues to be competitive.

Published: January 2023

The dilution effect indicates the use of inappropriate information to make predictions, where diagnostic information is diluted by non-diagnostic information. Under the influence of non-diagnostic information, human predictions are not correct. Auditor knowledge is the auditor's understanding of the level of a job, both conceptually and theoretically. The negative impact of the dilution effect can affect audit quality, which can affect the auditor's ability to categorize some information based on its relevance during the process. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the dilution effect and auditor knowledge gained from training and work experience, and spiritual capital affect audit considerations in determining fraud risk. In an organized situation, this study was conducted using vignette and ANOVA to test the three hypotheses and simple regression to test the fourth hypothesis. The subjects of this research are auditors from Public Accounting Firms, especially in Bali and Nusa Tenggara. There are several findings that can be expected in this study. First, the dilution effect has an adverse impact on the auditor's mind when making judgments during a fraud risk assessment. Auditors who are not exposed to the dilution effect will provide a more accurate assessment than auditors who are exposed to the dilution effect. Second, auditor knowledge has a significant effect on audit considerations in detecting fraud. Auditors who have higher knowledge will make more accurate assessments than auditors who have lower knowledge. The third finding is that auditors can be better at making audit judgments to assess the risk of fraud if they are equipped with spiritual capital. The fourth finding, however, shows that auditors who have higher knowledge and spiritual capital will still make inappropriate judgments during fraud risk assessments when they are exposed to the dilution effect.
