Can strict intellectual property laws facilitate the renewal of energy sector growth? The case of Saudi Arabia
Authors: AlQahtani Saad Nasser
Published: August 2023

Background: Saudi Arabia (KSA) is a global leader in producing fossil fuels and has primarily relied on this energy source for its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). However, after the 2014 oil crash, the country established Vision 2030, intending to shift toward a non-oil dependent economy. Through this vision, Saudi Arabia aims to increase generation of electricity from clean energy sources by 30%. This paper examines the effectiveness of strict intellectual property (IP) regulations aiming to develop the renewable energy (RE) sector.
Methods: In this paper, the author examines the effectiveness of strict intellectual property rights in-depth to develop innovation in the renewable energy sector as mentioned in Saudi Arabia’s 2030 Vision. The paper makes a comparison with countries, such as the EU and China, regarding the extent to which strict intellectual rights have improved innovation. The author uses an inductive research approach that relies on qualitative data since it critically analyses regulations and policies in many countries, such as Saudi Arabia, the EU, and China.
Results and conclusions: The author finds that financial incentives are more effective than in developing innovation in the renewable energy sector. Most importantly, developing countries benefit from financial incentives to increase innovation since many developed countries have adopted a strict IP law after their markets developed.

Authors: Quintero Aristides , Nieto Adalberto , Marín Nacarí , Canto Francisco
Published: August 2023

En esta investigación se elabora un prototipo de tubo de caracterización acústica en el cual se colocan probetas de fibra de coco mezcladas con aglomerantes naturales y sintéticos, con el objetivo de verificar la reducción de los niveles de presión sonora en decibeles ponderación A al emitir un sonido, facilitando la selección de materiales al trabajar con escalas reducidas y permitiendo su evaluación para aplicarlos en proyectos de aislamiento y acondicionamiento acústico. De esta manera, luego de realizar los ensayos en el prototipo con diferentes cantidades de aglutinante en un material de prueba y seleccionar la mejor relación en base a los decibeles reducidos, se debe mantener la relación porcentual entre el material de estudio y el aglomerante utilizado para proyectos a mayor escala. Para el prototipo desarrollado se tomaron mediciones a una potencia sonora constante mediante un altavoz colocado en la entrada del tubo, variando la frecuencia entre 100 Hz y 2000 Hz. Se encontró un rango de frecuencia óptimo de trabajo entre 500 Hz y 2000 Hz para el prototipo, llegando a obtener una reducción de hasta 27.3 dB al emitir un sonido de entrada 93.3 dB para la mezcla fibra de coco-resina de poliéster y de 9.1 dB reducidos con 93.1 dB de entrada para la mezcla fibra de coco-almidón de yuca. Ambos resultados se obtuvieron a una frecuencia de 2000 Hz. Los resultados obtenidos son comparados con un aislante acústico comercial como lo es la espuma de poliuretano, dejando como conclusión el gran potencial que presenta este material de desecho para aislar sonido a frecuencias altas, mayores a 1000 Hz.

Published: August 2023

El distrito de Tierras Altas se caracteriza por su topografía escarpada de alta montaña y su ubicación en el arco volcánico de Chiriquí que, en conjunto con las características propias del suelo y factores tanto naturales como antrópicos, exponen la zona a numerosos riesgos de deslizamientos por caídas de rocas y deslaves superficiales. El objetivo del presente artículo es evaluar el riesgo y analizar el desencadenamiento de deslizamientos en el distrito de Tierras Altas mediante un análisis geomecánico de estabilidad de laderas. Para obtener los parámetros de entrada del modelo se recolectaron muestras y se determinaron datos geotécnicos in situ en cuatro estaciones de la zona de Bambito, que permitió una clasificación de suelos y la caracterización de la matriz rocosa a partir de análisis granulométricos, límites de Atterberg, determinación de buzamiento, dirección de buzamiento, índice de calidad de roca (RQD) y clasificación geomecánica de Bieniawski (RMR); con el fin de generar un modelo 2D de taludes con el software GeoSlope, que permitió evaluar los factores de riesgo para cada estación. Fue posible determinar la presencia de materiales con índice de plasticidad baja y poco cohesivos, así como configuraciones en la matriz rocosa favorables a la propagación de deslizamientos, relacionando los factores de riesgo más importantes directamente con el tipo de material, la estratigrafía y topografía, y se reconocen la cobertura vegetal y cargas climáticas de la zona, como los elementos desencadenantes secundarios.

Functional characterization of VirB/VirD4 and Icm/Dot type IV secretion systems from the plant-pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas euvesicatoria

Introduction

Many Gram-negative plant- and animal-pathogenic bacteria employ type IV secretion (T4S) systems to transport proteins or DNA/protein complexes into eukaryotic or bacterial target cells. T4S systems have been divided into minimized and expanded T4S systems and resemble the VirB/VirD4 T4S system from the plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens and the Icm/Dot T4S system from the human pathogen Legionella pneumophila, respectively. The only known plant pathogen with both types of T4S systems is Xanthomonas euvesicatoria which is the causal agent of bacterial spot disease on pepper and tomato plants.

Results and discussion

In the present study, we show that virB/virD4 and icm/dot T4S genes are expressed and encode components of oligomeric complexes corresponding to known assemblies of VirB/VirD4 and Icm/Dot proteins. Both T4S systems are dispensable for the interaction of X. euvesicatoria with its host plants and do not seem to confer contact-dependent lysis of other bacteria, which was previously shown for the chromosomally encoded VirB/VirD4 T4S system from Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri. The corresponding chromosomal T4S gene cluster from X. euvesicatoria is incomplete, however, the second plasmid-localized vir gene cluster encodes a functional VirB/VirD4 T4S system which contributes to plasmid transfer. In agreement with this finding, we identified the predicted relaxase TraI as substrate of the T4S systems from X. euvesicatoria. TraI and additional candidate T4S substrates with homology to T4S effectors from X. axonopodis pv. citri interact with the T4S coupling protein VirD4. Interestingly, however, the predicted C-terminal VirD4-binding sites are not sufficient for T4S, suggesting the contribution of additional yet unknown mechanisms to the targeting of T4S substrates from X. euvesicatoria to both VirB/VirD4 and Icm/Dot T4S systems.

Sequencing-based interrogation of gut microbiota is a valuable approach for detecting microbes associated with colorectal cancer (CRC); however, such studies are often confounded by the effect of bowel preparation. In this study, we evaluated the viability of identifying CRC-associated mucosal bacteria through centimeter-scale profiling of the microbiota in tumors and adjacent noncancerous tissue from eleven patients who underwent colonic resection without preoperative bowel preparation. High-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that differences between on- and off-tumor microbiota varied considerably among patients. For some patients, phylotypes affiliated with genera previously implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis, as well as genera with less well-understood roles in CRC, were enriched in tumor tissue, whereas for other patients, on- and off-tumor microbiota were very similar. Notably, the enrichment of phylotypes in tumor-associated mucosa was highly localized and no longer apparent even a few centimeters away from the tumor. Through short-term liquid culturing and metagenomics, we further generated more than one-hundred metagenome-assembled genomes, several representing bacteria that were enriched in on-tumor samples. This is one of the first studies to analyze largely unperturbed mucosal microbiota in tissue samples from the resected colons of unprepped CRC patients. Future studies with larger cohorts are expected to clarify the causes and consequences of the observed variability in the emergence of tumor-localized microbiota among patients.

Introduction

Despite long-term integrated control programs for Eimeria stiedai infection in China, hepatic coccidiosis in rabbits persists. Th1, Th2, Th17, Treg, Th9, and Th21 cells are involved in immune responses during pathogen infection. It is unclear whether Th cell subsets are also involved in E. stiedai infection. Their roles in the immunopathology of this infection remain unknown. Therefore, monitoring these T-cell subsets’ immune responses during primary infection of E. stiedai at both transcriptional (mRNA) and protein (cytokines) levels is essential.

Methods

In experimentally infected New Zealand white rabbits, mRNA expression levels of their transcript—TBX2 (Th1), GATA3 (Th2), RORC (Th17), Foxp3 (Treg), SPI1 (Th9), and BCL6 (Th21)—were evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), whereas Th1 (IFN-g and TNF-a), Th2 (IL4), Th17 (IL17A and IL6), Treg (IL10 and TGF-b1), Th9 (IL9), and Th21 (IL21) cytokines were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs).

Results

We found that levels of TBX2, GATA3, RORC, SPI1, and BCL6 in the livers of infected rabbits were elevated on days 5 and 15 post-infection (PI). The concentrations of their distinctive cytokines IFN-g and TNF-a for Th1, IL4 for Th2, IL17A for Th17, IL9 for Th9, IL21 for Th21, and IL10 for Treg IL10 were also significantly increased on days 5 and 15 PI, respectively (p < 0.05). On day 23 PI, GATA3 with its cytokine IL4, RORC with IL17A, Foxp3 with IL10 and TGF-b1, and SPI1 with IL9 were significantly decreased, but TBX2 with IFN-g and IL6 remained elevated.

Discussion

Our findings are the first evidence of Th1/Th2/Treg/Th17/Th9/Th21 changes in E. stiedai-infected rabbits and provide insights into immune regulation mechanisms and possible vaccine development.
