Authors: Mordoch Gabriel
Published: July 2020

The author shares the circumstances that led to his encounter with the personal archives of Victor Haim Perera (1934–2003), an award-winning Sephardic-American writer, journalist, environmental and political activist, and academic born in Guatemala City. Perera published six books on topics as varied as Sephardic history, the Maya Indians, and the Loch Ness monster, and contributed dozens of articles, short stories, and essays to newspapers, trade journals, magazines, and literary anthologies. This paper also provides an overview of Perera’s life and work and shares information about the Victor Perera Papers collection at the University of Michigan Library. It presents a case study illustrating that library catalogers can improve discoverability of and access to library special collections by expanding beyond their core duties and investigating the contexts behind the materials that cross their desks. The article ends with a preliminary bibliography of Perera’s works.
The UCLA Sephardic Archive Initiative: Finding the Keys to an Untold History
Authors: Daniel Max Modiano
Published: July 2020

This essay introduces the scope and aim of the Sephardic Archive Initiative at the University of California, Los Angeles. In conjunction with the Library, Special Collections, and the Alan D. Leve Center for Jewish Studies, this project seeks to locate, collect, archive, and share documents and ephemera relating to Sephardic history. With a focus on their journeys to Los Angeles and Southern California, the initiative aims to tell the stories of Jews from North Africa, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and the lands of the former Ottoman Empire. The transnational ties of Sephardic commercial, intellectual, religious, social, and family networks have produced a richly tangled web of history, which for the past century has found a thriving base in Los Angeles. The project seeks to create a hub of scholarly and communal investment, interest, and exploration of materials related to the Sephardic past.

Looking for the Best Journey: Real Methodology of Research in General Medicine
Authors: Turabian Jose Luis
Published: July 2020

The research methods that the researcher uses are one of the most important parts of a study. But, classically, it is said that the initial question must be "What do I need to know and why?" Only after that, you can decide the method that best suits the particular purpose of the study is chosen. But, this article aims to put the "scientific method" in real life in general medicine and primary care, and so the “process of searching for the best research study” is like when we want to find the best time to buy airline tickets: we must look for cheap flights without a date or destination; without a predetermined and invariable research objective. “It's much easier to find deals on flights than hotels.” It is easier to have a research method available (accessible, useful, and possible) than to clearly specify an objective or research topic. There are times when the destination of our trips is based on a good offer of flights. Once we have the method / design, we can decide on the objective to achieve (more modest, grander, etc.). So, be flexible with your objective. When you see a good possibility of conducting a research study, for having the research methods do not let it escape because of the topic or research objective. In research, as in travelling, the adventure is very exciting.
Values and objectives of the EU in light of Opinion 1/17: ‘Trade for all’, above all
Authors: Damjanovic Ivana , de Sadeleer Nicolas
Published: July 2020

In Opinion 1/17 the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled that the new Investment Court System (ICS) in the Canada–EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) is compatible with the EU constitutional framework. This article examines the CJEU’s analysis of the ICS in its Opinion through the prism of EU values and objectives. Given the judicial nature of the ICS, the article unfolds around the concept of the rule of law. The scope and the content of this core EU value are considered under both EU law and the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). In particular, the ICS is analysed in light of the two core rule-of-law requirements: equal treatment and the independence of courts, enshrined in Articles 20 and 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights (CFR). Importantly, in Opinion 1/17 the CJEU for the first time applied Article 47 CFR to a court outside the EU judicial system. While the CJEU ruled that the ICS complies with the CFR rule-of-law criteria, this article argues that it nevertheless falls short of the rule-of-law standards required for judicial bodies under EU law. The article demonstrates that the CJEU prioritises free and fair trade as the CETA’s core objective, rather than the rule of law, and endorses the ICS as the conditio sine qua non of guaranteeing such trade. The Court’s findings have wider consequences for the rule of law in international law as the EU continues to pursue the establishment of a Multilateral Investment Court (MIC).

Published: July 2020

La inclusión educativa invita a repensar las epistemologías para construir puentes de sentido entre el accionar de investigadores y el de las comunidades educativas, sobre todo, cuando las comunidades escolares chilenas han sido vulneradas por políticas cimentadas en lógicas neoliberales. Este estudio cualitativo se enfoca en un evento de diálogo investigativo posterior a una etnografía, diseñado en dos etapas: una presentación y un ciclo que incluye fotografías y preguntas respecto de acciones cotidianas de las escuelas. A partir de tres eventos de análisis conjunto como casos instrumentales, se analizan las distintas formas de interacción e intercambio de significados que favorecen la participación entre los agentes educativos y los investigadores. Desde un enfoque sociosemiótico, se describe la negociación de significados. Emergen tres tipos de intercambio desarrollados a partir de las interpretaciones de fotografías, además de intercambios que resisten y a la vez permiten mayor espacio de participación a la comunidad educativa.

Difficulties in Translating Culturally Bound Conversational Words and Phrases in English and Kurdish
Authors: Hasan Abdul-Nafi' Kh.
Published: July 2020

The purpose of conducting this study is to identify and handle the problems arising from translating conversational words and phrases rooted in culture from English into Kurdish and vice versa. To achieve the objectives of the current research, source language conversational texts associated with greetings, politeness terms, kinship terms, address terms and words and phrases used on different occasions are translated into their counterparts in the target language. The results obtained from the translations show that translating cultural concepts is problematic and burdensome, and the problems identified result from cultural differences between the two languages and from literal translation which often leads to unnatural and incomprehensible expressions although this technique is used to borrow a source language expression. The results also indicate that translating culturally-bound conversational words and phrases requires good knowledge and mastery of both languages and cultures and proper use of various translation techniques. This research paper is an attempt to identify the problems that arise in translating culturally-specific conversational words and phrases from English into Kurdish and vice versa. It also aims to find out effective ways of overcoming the problem through implementing appropriate techniques for translating culturally-loaded words and phrases associated with greetings, terms of address, politeness terms, family relationship, in both languages.

Published: July 2020

The 1945 Constitution, article 27 paragraph (3) and article 30 paragraph (1) mandates every citizen about the rights and obligations of every Indonesian citizen in the defense and security efforts of the state. State defense efforts are carried out in a universal defense system involving all citizens. In addition, the arrangement of defense areas throughout the Republic of Indonesia is based on Government Regulation Number 68 of 2014 concerning the Arrangement of National Defense Areas starting from the provincial level to the district/city level. One of them is in the city of Bandung. The implementation of the defense area arrangement is carried out in an integrated manner with the regional spatial plan. But its implementation in the city of Bandung has not been fully integrated. For this reason, research or evaluation of this policy is carried out. The research problem is about the initial conditions (antecedent), the implementation process (transaction), and the achievement results (outcomes) of the defense area arrangement policy in the Bandung City Spatial Plan. The aim of the research is to evaluate the policies at these three stages. This study uses a qualitative method with Stake's Countenance Model. The results of the study show: (1) the initial condition of the defense area arrangement in the Bandung City Spatial Plan has been based on Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning and has been synergized, but not maximal yet; (2) the policy implementation process has been implemented, but not maximal ye; and (3) the results of the achievement of policies in the form of a Defense Area Plan have been realized and a the Defense Area Detail Plan has not been realized and has not been used as a reference in the preparation of the Bandung City Spatial Plan.

Does Granting the Jordanian Government Exceptional Authorities in its Contracts Achieve the Economic Growth and Public Interest?
Authors: AL-SHIBLI Farouq Saber
Published: July 2020

Inadequate public funding and budgetary constraints are among the major problems that limit many governments’ abilities to finance infrastructure projects and offer services to the public. Recently many countries are seeking the involvement of their private sector through an agreement known as (administrative contract) to provide the public projects fund.

The concept of administrative contracts is based on granting the government exceptional authorities that makes it the more powerful party in the contract and therefore capable of forcing contractors to carry out the public projects efficiently. Nevertheless, the private sector companies are not always willing to engage in a contract with the government, as there is a belief that the administration may misuse its exceptional privileges.

The main objective of this paper is to examine methods available to guarantee the implementation of administrative contracts in a manner that achieves the best delivery of public services to the people from one hand, and to help the private sector to establish contracts with the government and provide them some guarantees for their investments from another hand. Accordingly, this article is based on the analytical legal research methodology to make a critical evaluation of the main obstacles facing administrative contracts in Jordan, and provide recommendations that may help avoiding the current prevailing issues.

Published: July 2020

The ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) currently requires diverse economic agreements and laws across the region because it moves in a robust multilateral connection based on political, industry, welfares, services, and especially migrant workers. Indonesia, as the largest provider of migrant workers, should have been prepared to deal with the cases of migrant workers. There is a need to build up consensus and appropriate Indonesian labor laws, such as the establishment of multi-partite bodies for purposes of recognition in the ASEAN Economic Community. Thus, this paper attempts to analyze the current existing labor laws in Indonesia. External desk research was employed in this study as the methodology. The results found that the several laws do not meet the needs of the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers concerning the Placement and Protection of Indonesian Workers Abroad. There has not yet provided proportional tasks and authority between the Central Government, Regional Governments, and the private sector. The implementation of the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers requires strict supervision and law enforcement. The supervision including protection before work, during work, and after work, and law enforcement should accommodate the administrative sanctions and criminal sanctions.
Modeling of the Distribution Mechanism for Fuel Industry Enterprises' Rental Income in the System. State – Region – Enterprise
Authors: HALYNSKA Yulia , OLIINYK Viktor
Published: July 2020

The article proposes to consider the theoretical and methodological foundations of optimizing the distribution of rental income of enterprises of fuel extractive industry in the ‘state-region-enterprise’ system in the context of a simultaneous and interconnected increase in rental income to state and local budgets and an increase in the value of the assets of extractive enterprises in a context of reducing conflicts of interest of alliance members. The determination of the optimal value of the distribution of rent in the time interval from 2016 to 2022 is carried out on the basis of differential equations and an auxiliary function that satisfies the transversely conditions. As the basic values of indicators characterized by a data array, we used the environmental, economic and technical and technological indicators of fuel-producing enterprises. The results obtained were compared with the distribution of rent between the region and the state according to the current legislation in the ratio of 5% and 95%. At the same time, 3 different options for the optimal redistribution of rental income in the system ‘state – region – fuel producing enterprises’ were considered, where the initial conditions change. An analysis of the distribution of rental income from the extraction of natural resources showed that the most optimal is the distribution that changes over time in accordance with the efficiency of the enterprise and the socio-economic and environmental situation in the region. According to the calculations, it is proposed to transfer 14% of rental income to local budgets, 56% of rental income must be transferred to the State budget and 30% of rental income remains at the enterprise.

The purpose of the research is to study the economic environment and determine the possibilities of issuing and circulating municipal bonds. The methods used were information sampling, its grouping, system and statistical analysis, comparison of indicators and logical conclusions. It has been determined that the large quasi-public sector, the feebleness of development institutions, the instability of the banking sector, and the uneven development of regions impede the formation of the stock market. Low household incomes, inflation and depreciation of the national currency reduce investment opportunities. The risks of buying securities by the population are not calculated, there are no clear guarantees for the rights of ordinary shareholders, the return of funds causes problems due to imperfect legislation.

In order to substantiate the true opportunities and desires of people to spend money on the purchase of securities, questionnaires and interviews were conducted among representatives of various social groups. The study showed that citizens are willing to buy bonds, but first it is needed to create an innovative economy and implement attractive projects in the regions for the population in order to fully launch the stock market. In the current scheme for issuing municipal bonds, only the quasi-public sector is involved. To attract the investments from pension funds, insurance companies, small investors (population), the authors recommend a scheme of business processes for issuing and circulating bonds. The problems and proposals discussed are of interest to post-Soviet countries, which are facing with the need to develop the stock market.
Technology Spillover Effects and Policies: Evidence from Vietnam
Authors: NGO Ngoc Minh
Published: July 2020

The paper examines empirical research on technology spillover effects from foreign invested enterprises (FIEs) to domestic manufacturing and processing firms in the North of Vietnam in 2016-2018 period. The Hausman test demonstrates Fixed Effects Model is suitable for the most-updated panel data. The empirical results indicate that FIEs create a pervasive effect on the productivity of domestic manufacturing and processing firms. However, the technology spillover effect depends on characteristics of domestic enterprise. Accordingly, the capitalization rate and production scale are positively correlated with technology spillover while the technology gap is negatively. This finding is useful for authorities to map out policies for domestic firms to absorb more effectively technology spillover effect from FIEs.

The post-modern reality, including the multitude of changes and expanding volumes of offers force the individual to continually redefine themselves. A person existing in contemporary reality is permanently on the search for their identity, in order to finally find the most suitable one, which (as it usually turns out nowadays) does not exist. Youths make a choice within the range of education offers. They more often than not decide to study, with studying being the reason for delaying the moment of entry into adulthood and taking over social roles that are specific for the period of young adulthood. In making this choice, young people enter the phase of so-called emerging adulthood, which for a while now has been a new, separate phase of development, fitting in between adolescence and young adulthood. They are not passing through the complex process of puberty any more, however, they do not always have a mature identity. They find themselves in a period characterised by intense exploration. The article attempts to describe the specifics of this stage, additionally presenting an overview of studies on the mode of coping with issues of identification characterising the early adulthood period.

There are two stages in Lazursky’s work: the first is associated with the concept of nature as an internal individually-typological basis of personality, and the second one is determined by introduction and more intensive development of ideas about an attitude towards the world as an important component of the personality structure. The primary aim of the article is to highlight the role of Lazursky in international psychology.
Able-bodied vs. disabled people – infrahumanisation of students with disabilities (a case study)1

The article discusses the phenomenon of infrahumanisation in academic relations between able-bodied people (both students and academics) and students with disabilities. The main goal of the article is to show that infrahumanisation may make it difficult for young people with disabilities to build their capital for the future in the form of interpersonal relations. The paper uses Arnold van Gennep’s concept of the rite of passage as a model of entering adulthood, and focuses specifically on the stage of university education as the one which completes the transition into adulthood, and marks the beginning of a “normal” life (i.e. one consistent with social expectations). The phenomenon of infrahumanisation shown here on various levelsof academic life disrupts this process, and may hinder the inclusion/integration of disabled people into society. The relations between disabled students and non-disabled people who are part of the academic community in which the students operate may, however, also bridge the distance between the two groups, and thus contribute to paving the way to a respectful society, i.e. the way of equality.

The article is based on the conclusions of the author’s research carried out among a selected group of students revealing the characteristics of homo construens. Young people who took part in the research directed (constructed) the scripts of partnership and family biographies as free, original and willing to change. On the other hand, the same scripts unmasked loneliness and a huge need for recognition in the world of cultural and narcissistic demands for self-actualisation, satisfaction and a sense of fulfilmentin the spheres of partnerships and family. The need for dialogue requires pedagogical support that will revealthe values of community, social groups and partnerships.
MEAN REVERSION IN TURKISH STOCK MARKET AND TIME-VARYING EQUITY RISK PREMIUM
Authors: EREN Ömer , KARAHAN Cenk C.
Published: July 2020

Mean reversion in stock markets has been an open question for the decades it has been meticulously tested. This study first aims at shedding further light on this unsettled issue by assessing mean reversion in a broad Turkish stock data via a non-parametric and model-free methodology. Variance ratio computations and distribution-free statistical tests based on randomization are used on dollar and lira denominated nominal, real and excess returns of Borsa Istanbul equity market. As a strong mean reversion is apparent in the empirical tests, the study secondly tries to identify a possible cause of this apparent anomaly. CAPM-based equity risk premium estimations generated via two-pass cross-sectional regressions reveal that the mean reversion might be explained by the dynamic nature of equity risk-premium. The results indicate that the mean reversion in Turkish equity market is a result of time-varying behavior of rational investors rather than market inefficiency.

İş değerlerinde kuşak farklılıkları işe alma, eğitim ve geliştirme, kariyer gelişimi, ödül sistemi ve yönetim şeklini etkilemektedir. Yöneticilerin işletmelerde kuşak farklılıklarını en iyi ne şekilde yöneteceklerine dair önerilere ihtiyacı vardır. Dünyadaki kuşaklarla ilgili çalışmalar genellikle Kuzey Amerika’da ve Avrupa’da yoğunlaşmaktadır. Ancak kuşakların kültürlere göre farklılık gösterdiği bilinmektedir. Yabancı yazında yapılan bazı çalışmalar olsa da; kuşaklar çalışmalarının ülkelerin ve toplumların bölgesel ekonomik ve kültürel olaylardan etkilenerek gösterdiği farklılıklar nedeniyle, Türkiye’de yazından farklı sonuçlar elde edileceği beklenmektedir. Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, Türkiye’de X ve Y kuşaklarının iş değerleri açısından karşılaştırmalı şekilde analiz edilmesidir. Bunun yanısıra Türkiye’de işgücünün iş değerleri profilinin çıkartılması, iş değerlerinin kuşaklara ve cinsiyete göre karşılaştırılması da hedeflenmektedir.

Published: July 2020

Günümüz kapitalizminde yetişkin işsizliğindeki artış, yetişkinlerin geçimlik ücret bile elde edememesi, kayıt dışı ekonominin yaygınlığı, göçmen emeğindeki artış ile birlikte çocuk işçiliği de artmaktadır. Özellikle ekonomik kriz dönemlerinde sermaye çocuk emeğine daha çok yönelmekte ve ucuz, güvencesiz ve ‘uysal’ emek olan çocuk emeği özellikle de göçmen çocuk emeği işverenlerin tercihi olmaktadır. Göçmen çocuklar, kayıt dışı çalışma ve çocuk işçiliğinin yaygın olduğu Türkiye’de de emek
piyasasına yoğun bir şekilde dahil olmakta ve en kötü koşullarda çalışmaya mecbur bırakılmaktadırlar. Bu çalışma, uluslararası göçün önemli bir boyutu olan göçmen çocuk istihdamını Türkiye’de tekstil sektöründe çalışan Suriyeli çocuk işçiler bağlamında ele almaktadır. Suriyeli çocuk işçilerin yaşam ve çalışma koşulları İstanbul Çağlayan’da tekstil sektöründe çalışan 12 Suriyeli çocuk ile yarı yapılandırılmış yüz yüze görüşmelerden elde edilen bulgular çerçevesinde çocukların gözünden ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu süreçte çocukların katılımı ile yapılan araştırmalarda gözetilecek etik kurallar hassasiyetle takip edilmiştir.

Authors: ÜÇOK Dilek Işılay
Published: July 2020

Ahlaki çözülme kavramı, kişilerin, ahlaki standartlarıyla, içinde bulundukları davranışın birbirleriyle uyuşmaması neticesinde yaşamış oldukları çelişkiyi, bir takım bilişsel mekanizmaları kullanarak ortadan kaldırma çabası içine girmeleri olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu çalışmada, kurumlarda yaşanan etik dışı davranışların zeminini oluşturabileceği düşünülen ahlaki çözülme sürecinin aşamaları, hizmet sektöründe faaliyet gösteren bir kurumda gerçekleşmiş olan bir örnek olay yardımıyla derinlemesine incelenmiştir. Bunun yanı sıra, bu çalışmanın hem ahlaki çözülme mekanizmalarına zemin oluşturabilecek öncellerin tespiti hem de konuyla ilgili alandaki az sayıdaki nitel çalışmayı destekleyici özelliği nedeniyle yazına katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
Characteristics of selected measures of stress triaxiality near the crack tip for 145Cr6 steel - 3D issues for stationary cracks
Authors: Graba Marcin
Published: July 2020

In the paper the numerical analysis of the stress fields for 145Cr6 steel, near crack tip is presented, based on three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) analysis. The FEM analysis is focused on SEN(B) specimens with relative crack length a/W ≈ 0.30. In addition to the presentation of the normal components of the stress tensor, the paper presents selected measures of stress triaxiality parameters, measured for the value of the J-integral, corresponding to the experimentally determined fracture toughness, denoted as JIC
, which is considered to be a material constant or material characteristic [1, 2]. Presented topic is a continuation of papers [3, 4],whichwere based on experimental analysis, presented in [5].
Comparison of strength and stiffness parameters of purlins with different cross-sections of profiles
Authors: Wojnar Andrzej , Sieńkowska Katarzyna
Published: July 2020

The article presents comparative analyzes aimed at determining the optimal cross-section used in cold-formed steel purlins. The geometrical characteristics, bending resistance and self-weight of channel, zeta and hat cross-sections were compared. The calculations were made using Dlubal SHAPE-THIN software for the bending by the main axis y-y and z-z. The characteristics for the gross and effective cross-section were determined. Based on the first stage analyzes, a significant decrease in cross-sectional bending resistant was observed as a result of a local buckling. The solution to this problem may be the use of intermediate stiffeners. In the second stage, analysis of the impact of the intermediate stiffeners’ locations on the characteristics of hat sections were conducted. Additional intermediate stiffeners on the webs, on the upper chord, and on the webs and upper chord (together) were considered. A significant effect on the bending resistant with a small increase in the element’s self-weight has been demonstrated. In the third stage, the characteristics of a channel, zeta and hat profile with intermediate longitudinal stiffener in the middle of the web were compared. The performed analyzes demonstrated that the hat cross-section shows a significant advantage in bending by the main axis z-z. This advantage can be used in case of lack of protection against lateral torsional buckling and a larger degree of roof slope.
Real estate data for Germany (RWI-GEO-RED)
Authors: Breidenbach Philipp , Schaffner Sandra
Published: July 2020

The development and conditions of the housing market are an important part of economic research, receiving growing attention also in Germany. The RWI-GEO-RED dataset covers data for the German residential housing market from 2007 onwards on 1 km² level and closes the gap for small-scale, nationwide and up-to-date housing data for Germany. The data has a large potential in analyzing the real estate market itself or to evaluate policy interventions through treatments on small regional levels. Prominent examples are the closing of nuclear power plants and the German rent control. The dataset can be used on its own but also has a large potential for combination with different data. The dataset is provided by the FDZ Ruhr at RWI that hosts small-scale regional data for Germany. The data can be obtained for scientific research as scientific use file.

Authors: Ma Zhenhua , Asif Awais , Aydi Hassen , Khan Sami Ullah , Arshad Muhammad
Published: July 2020

In this work, we show that the existence of fixed points ofF-contraction mappings in function weighted metric spaces can be ensured without third condition(F3)(F3)imposed on Wardowski functionF:(0, ∞)→ℜF\mathrm{:(0,\hspace{0.33em}}\infty )\to \Re. The present article investigates (common) fixed points of rational typeF-contractions for single-valued mappings. The article employs Jleli and Samet’s perspective of a new generalization of a metric space, known as a function weighted metric space. The article imposes the contractive condition locally on the closed ball, as well as, globally on the whole space. The study provides two examples in support of the results. The presented theorems reveal some important corollaries. Moreover, the findings further show the usefulness of fixed point theorems in dynamic programming, which is widely used in optimization and computer programming. Thus, the present study extends and generalizes related previous results in the literature in an empirical perspective.
Robust optical physical unclonable function using disordered photonic integrated circuits
Authors: Bin Tarik Farhan , Famili Azadeh , Lao Yingjie , Ryckman Judson D.
Published: July 2020

Physical unclonable function (PUF) has emerged as a promising and important security primitive for use in modern systems and devices, due to their increasingly embedded, distributed, unsupervised, and physically exposed nature. However, optical PUFs based on speckle patterns, chaos, or ‘strong’ disorder are so far notoriously sensitive to probing and/or environmental variations. Here we report an optical PUF designed for robustness against fluctuations in optical angular/spatial alignment, polarization, and temperature. This is achieved using an integrated quasicrystal interferometer (QCI) which sensitively probes disorder while: (1) ensuring all modes are engineered to exhibit approximately the same confinement factor in the predominant thermo-optic medium (e. g. silicon), and (2) constraining the transverse spatial-mode and polarization degrees of freedom. This demonstration unveils a new means for amplifying and harnessing the effects of ‘weak’ disorder in photonics and is an important and enabling step toward new generations of optics-enabled hardware and information security devices.

Published: July 2020

Tissue factor (TF) which plays a key role in hemostasis and thrombosis appears to be an attractive target and medicinal plants having alkaloids inhibition TF activity benefit to cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of study is to explore further knowledge about alkaloids and TF. TF procoagulant activities were determined by the simplified chromogenic assay and their mRNA expression were then examined by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction. Besides, the potential of TF/FVIIa binding with four representative alkaloids were analyzed by molecular docking. The results indicated that these isoquinoline alkaloids with various structures had a different effect on suppression of TF activity. Molecular docking showed four alkaloids including l-corydalmine, berberine, jatrorrhizine, and tetrahydropalmatine were stably posed in the active binding pocket of TF/FVIIa. The SARs analysis showed the structural difference including planar, quaternary nitrogen, and the peripheral functional groups at C-8, C-9, C-10, have strong effect on inhibition of TF activity, which provided effective methods to modify isoquinoline alkaloids for inhibiting TF activity. This study provides a further evidence for the cardiovascular protection of isoquinoline alkaloids, and has physiological significance in the clinical challenge to use isoquinoline alkaloids or their potential analogs in the treatment of CVD.
