Cómplices y verdugos: masculinidades, género y clase en los delitos de infanticidio (provincia de Buenos Aires, 1886-1921)
Authors: Calandria Sol
Published: December 2019

RESUMEN Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los significados y prácticas de masculinidades de casos de infanticidio cometidos por hombres en la provincia de Buenos Aires entre 1886 y 1921. Durante los 35 años del período estudiado, la documentación judicial muestra que más de 120 mujeres fueron presas por infanticidio en la provincia, al paso que apenas 3 hombres fueron acusados del mismo crimen. A través de esos archivos, analizamos los significados de las masculinidades y las relaciones de género y familia que fueron destacados en esos casos. El artículo también investiga cómo los agentes judiciales actuaron cuando los hombres fueron acusados de un crimen, considerado por criminólogos y juristas como “crimen femenino típico”.
Loucas e criminosas: crimes femininos e controle social em comunidades de colonização europeia no Rio Grande do Sul (século XX)
Authors: Vendrame Maíra Ines
Published: December 2019

Resumo O presente artigo analisa dois crimes cometidos por mulheres ocorridos em regiões de colonização europeia do Rio Grande do Sul na primeira década do século XX. Descendentes de imigrantes italianos e alemães, Anna Maria e Pedrina, após cometerem os crimes de homicídio, foram levadas para o Hospício São Pedro, localizado na capital Porto Alegre, sob a alegação de que se encontravam em “estado de loucura”. Na mencionada instituição, permaneceram internadas durante quase dois anos, não sendo constatada alienação. Apesar disso, a possibilidade de terem atuado “fora de si” não foi descartada, o que lhes permitiu não serem condenadas por seus crimes. As explicações conferidas pelas testemunhas e rés foram utilizadas como ponto de partida para se levantar questionamentos sobre os diversos aspectos que marcavam a vida familiar camponesa e as relações com os vizinhos, as tensões, bem como as decisões tomadas quando do surgimento de delitos. A existência de diferentes percepções sobre loucura é algo que se sobressai enquanto questionamento para entender os crimes, mas também para compreender um dispositivo de controle e contenção dos comportamentos femininos.
Sobre o (des)valor da vida: feminicídio e biopolítica
Authors: Maia Cláudia
Published: December 2019

RESUMO Este artigo pretende ser uma contribuição aos estudos sobre gênero e crime, em específico os relativos ao feminicídio, por meio da análise de dois processos-crime de assassinato de mulheres estruturalmente diferentes ocorridos na cidade de Montes Claros (MG) nos anos de 1996 e 2006. Para isso, busca, por um lado, entender como as representações de gênero operam, como são acionadas nos discursos que circulam nos processos e como elas acabam constituindo a base para a atribuição das penas; por outro, investiga como esses crimes possibilitam pensar a vida das mulheres na biopolítica contemporânea. O descaso da justiça, as penas brandas, a tentativa de banalização dos crimes e de desqualificação das vítimas, nos processos, deixam explícita a precariedade da vida das mulheres e assinalam como são pouco valiosas para o Estado.

Published: December 2019

Resumo Este texto, recorte de pesquisa de doutorado, intenciona discutir como ocorre em uma experiência educativa o encontro com diários de aula, oferecendo um sobrevoo sobre eles, com eles e para além deles. Dessa forma, buscando atender aos anseios desta investigação, optou-se pela perspectiva narrativa, presentificada na problematização dos diários (visuais e textuais) produzidos pelos acadêmicos do curso de graduação em artes visuais da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria e nas redes de afetos que potencializaram ou não o pensar da experiência docente. Assim, com o intento de dar conta das exigências suscitadas pelas narrativas produzidas nos diários, passou-se a dialogar com o conceito de acontecimento. Neste tangenciar de narrativas próprias e alheias, foi possível desenhar outras paisagens e pensar na docência como um processo em constante renovação e invenção.
Repensando as migrações a partir de um arcabouço processual multiescalar
Authors: Campos Marden Barbosa de
Published: December 2019

Resumo As modificações recentes nos padrões migratórios exibidos por diversas populações forçam-nos a buscar novos enfoques analíticos que possibilitem apreender teórico-conceitualmente esses processos. Acredita-se que as migrações podem ser melhor compreendidas se direcionarmos nossa atenção, simultaneamente, para as transições por que passam os indivíduos, as famílias e as populações como um todo. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar um arcabouço conceitual que condense os aspectos teórico-explicativos da relação da migração com as transições ocorridas ao longo do ciclo de vida individual, domiciliar e populacional. Busca-se integrar os pressupostos desenvolvidos por abordagens uniescalares em um mesmo arcabouço conceitual.
Da era das migrações ao declínio das migrações? A transição para a mobilidade revisitada
Authors: Peixoto João
Published: December 2019

Resumo O principal objetivo deste texto é examinar e discutir as tendências atuais das migrações e da mobilidade internacional, bem como as principais teorias que têm sido desenvolvidas para as explicar. Para além de um estado da arte sumário, o texto procura entrever o que pode suceder no futuro face às mudanças globais, seja uma continuidade e aprofundamento das tendências atuais ou, pelo contrário, uma alteração do paradigma. Apesar de o cenário mais provável ser a continuação do aumento dos movimentos, tudo vai depender do confronto entre os fatores estruturais e a agência individual. Se os primeiros apresentam, hoje, alguns sinais contraditórios, a segunda revela as numerosas possibilidades de ação de migrantes e não migrantes. Existem vários futuros possíveis, sendo que um deles - a transição para a mobilidade - foi teorizado por Zelinsky em 1971.

Published: December 2019

ABSTRACT Purpose: to compare the measurements of fundamental frequency (F0) and frequency of the first two formants (F1 and F2) of the seven oral vowels of the Brazilian Portuguese in two speech tasks, in adults without voice and speech disorders. Methods: eighty participants in the age range 18 and 40 years, paired by gender, were selected after orofacial, orthodontic and auditory-perceptual assessments of voice and speech. The speech signals were obtained from carrier phrases and sustained vowels and the values of the F0 and frequencies of F1 and F2 were estimated. The differences were verified through the t Test, and the effect size was calculated. Results: differences were found in the F0 measurements between the two speech tasks, in two vowels in males, and in five vowels, in females. In the F1 frequencies, differences were noted in six vowels, in men, and in two, in women. In the F2 frequencies, there was a difference in four vowels, in men, and three, in women. Conclusion: based on the differences found, it is concluded that the speech task for evaluation of fundamental frequency and formants’ frequencies, in the Brazilian Portuguese, can show distinct results in both glottal and supraglottal measures in the production of different oral vowels of this language. Thus, it is suggested that clinicians and researchers consider both forms of emission for a more accurate interpretation of the implications of these data in the evaluation of oral communication and therapeutic conducts.

Published: December 2019

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a saturação de oxigênio (SatO2), a frequência cardíaca (FC), o tempo de internação e o peso dos recém-nascidos pré-termos (RNPTs) em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal, na oferta de dieta pelas técnicas de alimentação via copo e sonda-dedo, simultaneamente ao aleitamento materno. Método Ensaio clínico randomizado simultâneo. Foram selecionados 25 prematuros internados na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal de hospital público, no período de outubro de 2011 a fevereiro de 2012. A amostra foi dividida em dois grupos: 8 prematuros nascidos em dia par, que receberam a dieta no copo (GCP) e 17 prematuros, nascidos em dia ímpar, que receberam a dieta pela sonda-dedo (GSD). Na oferta da dieta foram anotados os valores mínimos e máximos da SatO2 e FC, antes de oferecer a dieta, durante e após a oferta. Resultados Quanto às variáveis SatO2 e FC, não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os grupos, mas, no fator grupo versus tempo, os grupos apresentaram diferenças, não contínuas na variável SatO2. Em relação ao peso, foi constatado ganho estatisticamente significativo para ambos os grupos, sendo que, no GCP, o maior ganho de peso foi por causa do maior tempo de internação. Foi verificado que o GSD apresentou menor tempo de internação. Conclusão Não houve diferenças quanto à SatO2 e FC. Contudo, ao se analisar o fator tempo, os grupos apresentaram algumas diferenças, não contínuas, o que indica a necessidade de outros estudos para melhor compreensão do efeito. O GSD apresentou menos tempo de internação e os RNPTs do GCP tiveram maior ganho de peso em razão do maior tempo de internação.

RESUMO Objetivo Investigar a confiabilidade da escala Borg centiMax como método de avaliação perceptivo-auditiva da hipernasalidade e a influência do tipo de amostra de fala sobre a confiabilidade das avaliações. Método Quatro fonoaudiólogas experientes classificaram a hipernasalidade de 80 amostras de fala de pacientes com fissura de palato reparada (40 vocábulos e 40 sentenças) utilizando a escala ordinal de 5 pontos e a escala Borg centiMax. Os índices de concordância intra e interavaliadores foram estabelecidos para ambas as escalas e amostras. A comparação desses índices foi feita pelo teste Z e a comparação entre as escalas foi feita pelo coeficiente de correlação de Spearman (p<0,05). Resultados Verificou-se correlação muito alta e significante entre a Escala Borg centiMax e a escala ordinal, para ambas as amostras. Os índices de concordância intra-avaliadores (CCI) para a escala Borg centiMax variaram de excelente a bom e, para a escala ordinal (Kappa), de excelente a pobre, em ambas as amostras. A concordância interavaliadores (CCI) para a escala Borg centiMax variou de excelente a moderada e, para a escala ordinal (Kappa), variou de moderada a pobre, para vocábulos e sentenças. Diferença estatisticamente significante, com melhores índices de concordância intra e interavaliadores para vocábulos, foi obtida com a escala Borg centiMax. Para a escala ordinal, diferença significante entre vocábulos e sentenças foi observada apenas para a comparação interavaliador. Conclusão A escala Borg centiMax apresentou melhores índices de concordância intra e interavaliadores. A amostra contendo vocábulos mostrou melhores índices de concordância na maioria das comparações, para ambas as escalas.

Sugarcane silage (SS) is generally susceptible to yeast action, resulting in dry matter losses due to high soluble carbohydrate concentration. We evaluated the effects of adding corn grain and microbial inoculant at ensiling on fermentative profile, losses, chemical composition and degradation of silages. Forty experimental silos (PVC tubing) were assigned at random to a 5 × 2 factorial arrangement with: (1) 5 corn additions at ensiling: CONT - straight sugarcane silage; GC2 - sugarcane with ground corn (processed through a 2 mm sieve) added at ensiling; GC8 - sugarcane with ground corn (processed through an 8 mm sieve) added at ensiling; WC - sugarcane with whole corn grain added at ensiling; and RCS - rehydrated corn ensiled without sugarcane; and (2) 2 microbial inoculant additions at ensiling: 0 and 8 mg of commercial inoculant per kg of feed. Corn grain was added at the rate of 100 g per kg of fresh sugarcane. Adding corn grain to sugarcane at ensiling improved SS fermentation and silage chemical composition. There was no benefit from grinding the grain before adding it to sugarcane. Microbial inoculant had little effect on SS fermentation. Studies comparing corn grain with other energy sources, e.g. molasses or cassava, for addition at ensiling sugarcane seem warranted along with feeding studies with livestock to assess intake and subsequent performance. The overall benefits of adding the energy sources at ensiling versus feeding them directly to animals with untreated sugarcane silage should be determined.

Published: December 2019

Growth characteristics, biomass yield and mineral concentrations were evaluated in a completely randomized design study of 7 Napier grass varieties. Data on tiller number per plant, plant height, leaf length, leaf width, stem diameter, leaf:stem ratio and dry matter (DM) yield, as well as concentrations of nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese and iron, were obtained at 2 months growth. The growth characteristics, DM yields and mineral concentrations (except phosphorus) varied significantly (P<0.01) among varieties. The variety Indian was tallest (221 cm) and produced the highest DM yield (6.3 t/ha), whereas Dwarf had the highest tiller number and leaf:stem ratio. Purple had the longest and Taiwan and Indian the widest leaves. Kobe, Pakchong and Purple had the greatest stem diameter. Concentrations of Ca, K and Na were greatest in Zanzibar, while Dwarf had the highest concentrations of N, Zn, Mn and Fe. Studies beyond the establishment phase over a range of seasons and in a range of environments at different ages of harvest are needed to confirm the merits of different Napier grass varieties in the study zone.

Introduction. The increasing clinical use of cellular technologies suggests the possibility of long-term storage of the cellular product while maintaining its viability and basic properties. The procedures of cell’s cryopreservation used in laboratory as well in clinical practice differ a lot. Each method includes two tasks to solve: what is the optimal freezing medium to use and what cryopreservation procedure to prefer. In this paper, we present the method utilized in our center for bone marrow cell cryopreservation. The freezing was carried out in nitrogen vapor after adding the medium containing 95 % dextran [average mw 50 000–70 000] and 5 % dimethylsulfoxid.

Purpose. To show that the proposed method of cryopreservation of dendritic cells is highly effective, simple, reproducible and most convenient for clinical use.

Materials and methods. Viability, expression of surface antigens and stimulating activity towards allogeneic T lymphocytes of cryopreserved mature dendritic cells cultured from peripheral blood monocytes were evaluated.

Results. The first cryopreservation resulted in the death of a small amount of cells. The second freezing procedure increased the proportion of dead cells. Meanwhile, the difference in the expression of the surface antigens in fresh, cryopreserved and re-cryopreserved dendritic cells was not statistically significant. The level of stimulating activity of fresh and cryopreserved dendritic cells did not significantly differ. Conversely the proliferation of allogeneic T lymphocytes was decreased after stimulation with re-cryopreserved dendritic cells.

Conclusion. The presented method of cryopreservation allows to preserve the viability and basic functions of dendritic cells. After thawing dendritic vaccine could be administered to patients after being diluted in an isotonic saline without washing, which makes this method the most convenient for clinical use.
Legal Content of Disarmament as a Principle of Modern International Law
Authors: Nutsalkhanov G N
Published: December 2019

At each stage of historical development in the world there were problems that are of universal global character. Such a problem in the modern world is the problem of disarmament. The article studies disarmament as a principle of modern international law. Analyzing the content of the disarmament principle on the basis of the provisions enshrined in the UN Charter, states do not yet have a direct duty to disarm. This duty must be mediated through other rules that require States to do so, and the creation by States of such norms is their duty. Noting the difficulty of developing a mutually acceptable agreement on disarmament, the author shows the role of the UN General Assembly and the UN Security Council in defining the general principles of disarmament and developing concrete plans in this area. In this context, the work of the main organs of the United Nations, the author also considers the role of the Military Staff Committee as a subsidiary body of the UN Security Council. The author then examines the role of the UN Disarmament Commission. Despite the fact that the Commission is not directly called upon to draft specific draft agreements on disarmament, this, in our view, is possible because the possibility of considering specific disarmament plans is not excluded from the functions of the General Assembly. At the same time, the author notes that the activities of the Commission can not be outside the jurisdiction of the UN Security Council, since it is this body that is responsible for developing the final disarmament plans. An analysis of the international legal doctrine and existing international legal acts leads the author to the conclusion that in the modern international law the disarmament principle is being formed, which acquires a qualitatively different character with the adoption of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons
Legal Deterrent Strategy Against Illegal Management Actions
Authors: Lutsenko S I
Published: December 2019

The author considers legal strategy of restriction from illegal actions of the management, allowing to protect interests of shareholders. The author analyzes the agency problem between shareholders and management in the corporate legislation through a prism of legal strategy. The shareholder of the company possesses powers which allow it with a view of efficiency achievement as independently, and under the responsibility to appoint to (choose) the management. The management is allocated with large powers. Legal strategy of restraint assumes co-ordination of actions of management and the shareholder, allowing to lower the agency costs connected with wrongful acts (infringements of the fiduciary duties) from management. In the corporate legislation main principle is the priority of interests of the company in whole (the corporate blessing) over interests of other participants of corporate relations. The key role is played by the control of the shareholder of actions of management within the limits of legal strategy of restraint. The effective and flexible system of compensation allows to lower level of the agency conflict between management and the shareholder of the company. The motivation program should be focused on important long-term objectives of the company. Compensation directly is connected with results of activity of the company and professionalism of its management. A part of legal strategy of restraint is use of fiduciary rates which protect interests of the shareholder as a class. The legislation demands, that the management acted in good fair and reasonably in interests of the company. The author focuses the companies on provision of independence as a part of controls for the purpose of decrease in the agency conflict between management and participants of the company. The legal strategy of restraint offered by the author, allows to soften the agency conflict between interests of a management and interests of participants of the company.
Qualification of Crimes Related to the Use of Modern Electronic Entities: the Experience of Germany
Authors: Pechegin D A
Published: December 2019

Comprehensive legal regulation of relations arising in connection with the development of the digital economy currently involves the establishment of the grounds and conditions for bringing persons to responsibility for illegal actions in the new crypto sphere of legal relations, including criminal liability. At the same time, this issue is most acute in connection with the emergence and evolution of crypto - currencies-digital entities that erase any boundaries, allowing you to «move away» from accounting for income, paying taxes, controlling financial flows, and so on. The latter is related to the risks and threats posed by this «new money». After all, unlike the use of digital technologies (i.e. the appropriate software) for criminal purposes, where a certain qualification of the attacker is required, almost everyone can use the cryptocurrency to commit illegal actions. Since 2013, the German Government began to recognize Bitcoin as a digital currency, indicating that such currency does not apply to electronic money or to the so-called «functional» currency (including foreign currency). In the future, virtual currencies in Germany were recognized as a financial instrument (2017), and in the banking legislation of Germany they were recognized as private funds and specific units of financial accounting. The article analyzes some aspects of the qualification of crimes related to the use of modern electronic entities in Germany.
Responsibility for Rape under the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China

A subject of the real research is the criminal legislation of People’s Republic of China on responsibility for rape. In work object of the specified crime is investigated, characteristic of the victim and subject of offense is given, the content of signs of the objective and subjective parties of crime reveals. Also characteristic of the qualifying signs is given in article. It is noted that studying of the foreign legislation and practice of its application is important both from theoretical, and from practical the points of view. Experience of foreign legislators allows to consider possible negative consequences when reforming the domestic legislation. The analysis of judicial practice, opinions of the Chinese and domestic scientists, the kriminogenic and qualifying signs allowed to establish strong and weaknesses of the Chinese legislation regarding a regulation of responsibility for rape. The Russian and Chinese criminal legislation has many common features. In many respects it is caused by the long-term socialist direction of development of the Russian Federation and People’s Republic of China. Nevertheless, the Chinese criminal legislation in the studied part has certain differences. So, for example, social, cultural and political and legal features of the Chinese system did not allow it to develop balanced by criminal - a legal mechanism of protection of the person against sexual encroachments irrespective of his floor. Now in criminal law of People’s Republic of China there is no independent responsibility for violent acts of sexual nature with penetration (anal, oral sexual contact) concerning males (in Russia such actions form the corpus delicti provided by Article 132 of the Criminal code). Such actions, despite high public danger, on the current edition of the law can be qualified only as infliction of harm to health or as dissolute actions.
Philosophy of Globalization of Criminal Law
Authors: Khilyuta Vadim Vladimirovich
Published: December 2019

In article the questions of globalization of criminal law and the pursued criminal policy are raised. At the doctrinal level trends of implementation of norms of the international criminal law and a problem of general unification of norms of criminal law are analyzed. The author comes to a conclusion about discrepancy of the mechanism of a global instrumentalization of criminal law and artificial imposing of the international standards to the national states. In article global initiatives of general and unconditional implementation of rules of international law and other legal institutes are in detail described. It is specified that these trends cannot be born in itself, without external intervention. It is proved that the drawn line of artificial unification of criminal tools at the global level leads to institutional crisis since basic borders of criminal law cannot identically be considered in relation to each single country (a national criminal system) in view of various social and economic parameters of functioning of the states and means of their realization.

Published: December 2019

In the context of aggravation of social processes in the country and the growth of crime, this article substantiates the study of the causes of crime as a landmark and popular research process, in relation to existing changes in society. Currently, the study of the causes of crime despite the numerous studies on this topic is still in demand and relevant. Changing the types of criminal groups, methods of criminal behavior, socio-economic conditions entails a constant need to improve the theoretical basis of the fight against crime, one of the main places in which, of course, plays criminology. The authors investigate the causes and factors contributing to the emergence and spread of crime, analyze different approaches to the classification of the causes of crime. It is emphasized that studying the causes of crime, we always focus on cause-and-effect relationships. But to absolutize it in any case it is impossible. This can lead to the isolation of individual phenomena, to the separation from their relations with other phenomena. It is proved that in the study of crime it is necessary to take into account both its causes and conditions, which together are denoted by the term “determination of crime”. The authors come to the conclusion that “determination” plays a fundamental role in philosophical knowledge of the world. It means that all real processes (both natural and social) arise and develop naturally, because they are caused by certain reasons. If there is a phenomenon that has led to another phenomenon, the first is called a cause and the second is a consequence. The reasons are not any, but quite certain, the corresponding consequences

INVESTIGATION OF ARGON PLASMA JETS WITH SPECTRAL LINE INTENSITY RATIO
Authors: TANIŞLI Murat , YANIK Sevinç , ŞAHİN Neslihan
Published: December 2019

At the atmospheric pressure, argon plasma jet was
obtained for 20 kHz frequency, 8 kV voltage and different flow rate in the
DBD-like system. The optical emission spectra of these jets were taken.
Spectral lines of discharges experimentally obtained were compared with
spectral lines in NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
database. Atmospheric pressure plasmas are optically thin. Therefore, the line
intensity ratio method can be used by determining suitable spectral lines. In
general, the intensity of a spectral line is a function of both electron
temperature and density. While determining these spectral lines, those
sensitive to electron temperature were selected. The spectral lines, which are
sensitive to electron temperature, depend on the difference between the
excitation energy levels and the transition probability ratios. As a result,
the electron temperature of argon jet was tried to be determined by line
intensity-ratio method.

Orbital cellulitis: early intervention saves vision
Authors: Rajeshwari N. , Savitha A.
Published: December 2019

Orbital cellulitis describes an infection involving the soft tissues posterior to the orbital septum including the fat and muscle within the bony orbit. This condition is associated with severe sight and life-threatening complications. Distinguishing it from preseptal cellulitis is difficult, but important. Acute sinusitis is the commonest predisposing factor. Clinical findings alone are not specific enough to distinguish between preseptal and post septal orbital cellulitis. Early diagnosis using CT orbit is important to rule out complications such as orbital cellulitis, subperiosteal abscess. The most common location of subperiosteal abscess is the medial wall of the orbit. Transnasal endoscopic drainage of the abscess is a functional and minimally invasive technique and is the treatment of choice at present. Early diagnosis and intervention are mandatory to prevent the visual loss and life-threatening complication.Here, the authors describe a 2 months old infant with orbital cellulitis and medial subperiosteal abscess and treated with transnasal endoscopic drainage of the subperiosteal abscess.

Published: December 2019

Background: Genetic diseases causing abnormalities in structure and/or function of skin are termed as genodermatoses. As there is paucity of epidemiological data of genodermatoses from our country, this study was conducted to determine the latest clinical and epidemiological trends of pediatric genodermatoses.

Methods: A hospital-based observational study consisting of 35 clinically diagnosed pediatric genodermatoses cases, who reported to the Dermatology OPD, Dr. D.Y. Patil Medical College, Pune, was conducted for a period of two years. Socio-demographic and clinical information was collected and clinical examination was performed on all patients to record any cutaneous/extra-cutaneous abnormality. The participants were then subjected to necessary investigations to elucidate the additional disease components. The data was evaluated using appropriate statistical methods.

Results: Out of 4032 pediatric patients, 35 were found to have genodermatoses. Majority (57.14%) cases belonged to the first decade of life. There was no sexual predilection (male:female - 0.94:1). The commonest genodermatoses detected were neurofibromatosis and tuberous sclerosis (17.14% each). Most common mode of inheritance seen was autosomal dominant (57.14%). Family history and consanguinity were recorded in 45.71% and 22.86% cases respectively. Café-au-lait macules seen in 22.86% cases and ocular anomalies recorded in 34.38% cases were the commonest cutaneous and extracutaneous manifestations, respectively.

Conclusions: Genodermatoses are rare skin disorders with systemic involvement at times, resulting in poorer prognosis. This necessitates more focus on this speciality.
Multifunctional role of plant cysteine proteinases.
Authors: Grudkowska Małgorzata , Zagdańska Barbara
Published: December 2019

Cysteine proteinases also referred to as thiol proteases play an essential role in plant growth and development but also in senescence and programmed cell death, in accumulation of storage proteins such as in seeds, but also in storage protein mobilization. Thus, they participate in both anabolic and catabolic processes. In addition, they are involved in signalling pathways and in the response to biotic and abiotic stresses. In this review an attempt was undertaken to illustrate these multiple roles of cysteine proteinases and the mechanisms underlying their action.
Antitumour activity of Salmonella typhimurium VNP20047 in B16(F10) murine melanoma model.
Authors: Jazowiecka-Rakus Joanna , Szala Stanisław
Published: December 2019

A tumour therapy is proposed based on attenuated Salmonella typhimurium VNP20047 expressing the Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase gene. VNP20047 was administered intravenously to B16(F10) melanoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice. VNP20047 proliferated within tumours and livers regardless of the initial inoculum dose. After 10 days the number of bacteria increased in livers up to 4.2 x 10(6) cfu/g and decreased in tumours down to 5.9 x 10(6) cfu/g. VNP20047 at 1 x 10(5) cfu/mouse, when combined with 5-fluorocytosine, inhibited tumour growth by 85% without prolonging animal survival. Histology studies revealed severe lesions in tumours and livers. These data suggest that S. typhimurium VNP20047 induced inflammatory responses, even though the strain was attenuated.
Desarrollo, Buen Vivir y pobreza. Un análisis crítico del discurso
Authors: Toscano Darío
Published: December 2019

A través de una postura foucaultiana y desde el método del Análisis Crítico del Discurso, en el presente artículo se realiza un análisis de la trayectoria del discurso de la pobreza en los planes nacionales de desarrollo en el Ecuador, en los periodos desarrollista, neoliberal y posneoliberal, haciendo hincapié en este último enmarcado en el proyecto del Buen Vivir. Se evidencia que, contrario a sus intenciones de romper las estructuras que generan desigualdad y pobreza en el país, el Buen Vivir generó una nueva ola de dinámicas de relaciones hegemónicas, dominación y pobreza mediante su discurso basado en derechos.

BACKGROUND: Tocotrienol-rich fraction (TRF) from palm oil has been shown to exhibit potent antioxidative properties in various pathological conditions. This study aimed to determine the antioxidative properties of TRF on the plasma and erythrocyte membrane lipids composition in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=40) were divided randomly into four groups of 10, which were a normal group, a normal group with TRF, a diabetic group, and a diabetic group with TRF. Following four weeks of treatment, lipids compositions in the plasma and erythrocyte membrane were investigated.RESULTS: TRF significantly reduced the plasma total cholesterol, to that in the diabetic group. In addition, supplementation of TRF was able to reduce the very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), triglycerides levels in treated diabetic rat although no significant different was observed when compared with untreated diabetic rats alone. Furthermore, TRF supplementation showed increased the levels of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, and total phospholipid levels in diabetic rats. However, the linoleic acid (18:2) levels were reduced in diabetic rats compared to the control group, and the eicosadienoic acid (20:2) levels were significantly increased by TRF supplementation in diabetic rats.CONCLUSION: Supplementation with 200 mg/kg TRF improves dyslipidemia and that TRF, therefore, might have protective effects against oxidative damage of phospholipids. This study also showed the antioxidative properties of TRF on the erythrocyte membrane lipids composition, in particular, its protective effects against peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids.KEYWORDS: antioxidative property, cholesterol, fatty acids, phospholipids, tocotrienol-rich fraction

BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA), short noncoding RNA, plays role in various physiological process such as aging through epigenetic regulation of gene expression. miRNA present intracellular as well as extracellular in body fluids. miRNA that present in blood circulatory system is often referred as circulatory miRNA (c-miRNA). A number of studies trying to identify c-miRNAs as biomarker for ageing have been reported, but majority did not yield results that corroborate one with another. This study reports the identification of a differentially expressed c-miRNAs between elderly and youth groups of individuals, the first step in tracking specific miRNAs that play role in physiologic ageing.METHODS: The miRNA expression profiles of grandfathers and grandsons from 2 Javanese families were compared to select 5 miRNA candidates with widest expression difference. The 5 candidates were subjected to validation using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in 11 elderly men and 9 young men of the same ethnicity to identify differentially expressed miRNA between elder and younger male groups in the represented population.RESULTS: Amongst 5 selected c-miRNA candidates, the hsa-miR-376c-3p was validated to be upregulated in the elderly group when compared to the young individuals. Bioinformatic analysis using miRTarBase 7.0, miRTargetLink Human and GeneCards® Human Gene Database suggest the involvement of hsa-miR-376c-3p in pathways relevant with cellular ageing.CONCLUSION: This study showed that hsa-miR-376c-3p in the circulating plasma to be significantly upregulated in a group of elderly Javanese males compared to their younger counterparts. The results of this study warrant further study to elucidate the specific role of hsa-miR-376c-3p in physiologic ageing mechanism.KEYWORDS: circulating, microRNA, miR-376c-3p, elderly, Javanese, male

Published: December 2019

BACKGROUND: Rapid and accurate identification of Staphylococcus capitis is required to provide a better prognosis for endocarditis patients and tackle the emergence of multidrug resistant strains of the bacteria in hospitals. The current study was aimed to develop polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for specific identification of S. capitis using sodA and gap genes as markers.METHODS: Five sequences of sodA and sixteen sequences of gap registered in GeneBank were analysed using bioinformatic tools. PCR primers were designed based on the conserved and specific regions of sodA and gap. Four clinical isolates of S. capitis (named no. 56-59) and six reference strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) species including S. epidermidis ATCC 35984, S. epidermidis 48951I/09, S. lugdunensis 44987/09, S. sciuri 109645I/08, S. warneri 135612/09, S. hominis 114202/08 were used to validate the conventional PCR system.RESULTS: The current PCR system only amplified the DNA template of S. capitis. Current primers specifically targeted S. capitis as the agarose images only showed bands from S. capitis samples.CONCLUSION: The sodA and gap genes might serve as effective markers for identification of S. capitis using conventional PCR. The PCR assay in the current study was able to identify five clinical isolates of S. capitis accurately without mispriming, misamplification and misidentification. The PCR system was also able to discriminate other CoNS including S. epidermidis, S. lugdunensis, S. sciuri, S. warneri and S. hominis.KEYWORDS: Staphylococcus, S. capitis, sodA, gap, PCR
