INVESTIGATING ITEM ORDER EFFECT ON PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES OF A SELF-REPORT SCALE
Authors: DEMIR Elif Kubra
Published: October 2023

In this study, the item order effect was investigated using the self-efficacy perception scale for computational thinking. 946 participants consisting of 8th grade students participated in the research. Participants were first administered the original form of the scale, in which the dimensions were sequential and each item was presented in the relevant sub-dimension. One month later, a second form in which the order of the items was completely random was administered to the same group. Analyzes revealed no significant difference in the group's total mean score between the two forms. Additionally, the study showed the extent to each individual participants' total and factor scores varied between two forms, and the difference was negligible. Another remarkable finding is that sequentially arranging items representing the same dimension contributes positively to the internal consistency reliability of the scale. Confirmatory factor analyzes were performed for both forms, revealing good model fit with similar index values; This shows that randomizing the item order does not disrupt the structure of the scale. In addition, factor loading differences between the models were also examined. Finally, the analysis results showed that the two models achieved strict level of measurement invariance that is often difficult to achieve in practice. Contextual effects of items can be observed more in attitude scales. To investigate this effect in future studies, instead of creating random forms, forms in which the order of the items is consciously manipulated for a specific purpose can be used. It is also suggested that the item order effect can be examined in the context of many demographic characteristics and different item types.
Yabancı Dil Olarak Almanca Öğretiminde “in” Yerel Edatı: Derlem Dilbilimsel Bir İnceleme
Authors: AKOL GÖKTAŞ Selma
Published: October 2023

Yabancı bir dil öğrenilirken o dilin bütün dilbilgisi yapısı da dil ile birlikte öğrenilmektedir. Bu dilbilgisi yapılarından birisi de Almanca ders kitaplarında veya dil bilgisi kitaplarında “Lokalpräpositionen (yerel edatlar)” olarak adlandırılan dil bilgisi konusudur. Bu edatlar “aus, bei, mit, nach, von, seit, zu, an, neben, auf, hinter, in, unter, vor ve zwischen” olarak sayılabilir. Bu edatlar bazen Türkçe ile benzerlik göstermekte ve bazen büyük ayrımlar oluşturmaktadır. Çünkü farklı dil ailesine sahip iki dilde her zaman dil bilgisi konuları örtüşmemektedir. Bu çalışmada, “in” edatı Deutscher Wortschatz ve DWDS derlemlerinde kullanım sıklıkları, yerelleştirme bağlamında hangi kelimelerle ne sıklıkla kullanıldıkları incelenmiş ve derlem dilbilimsel açıklamalar getirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı “in” edatının ne kadar sıklıkla kullanıldığını inceleyerek, en sık hangi kelimelerle birlikte aynı dizimde yer aldığını ortaya koymaktır. Araştırma da nitel araştırma deseninden faydalanılmıştır. DWDS derlemi ile “Deutscher Wortschatz” portalı, veri analizi ve veri toplama aracı olarak kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Almancada en çok kullanılan edatlardan biri olan ve “içinde” anlamını taşıyan “in” edatı ile sınırlandırılmıştır. Analizlerden elde edilen sonuçlar şu şekildedir: “In” edatının DWDS derlemine göre en yüksek derece olan 6 sıklık derecesinde Deutscher Wortschatz’a göre yine 1 sıklık derecesinde bulunduğu ve en sık “der, den, Deutschland, diesem, einem, Richtung, Berlin, dieser, Europa, die vb.” kelimelerle aynı dizimde bulunduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma diğer yerel edatların derlem dilbilimsel analizine örnek teşkil etmektedir ve çalışmadan elde edilen veriler Yabancı Dil Olarak Almanca dersler bağlamında değerlendirilmiştir.

Cryptography is one of the parts in mathematics, especially applied mathematics. Cryptography is the science that studies how to secure information that we don't want others to know about the information we have. Based on the development of the times, cryptography is divided into two consisting of classical cryptography and modern cryptography. In this paper, the focus of discussion is on classical cryptography. Furthermore, there are many kinds of classical cryptographic algorithms, such as the Caesar cipher algorithm, the Playfair cipher algorithm, the Vigenere cipher algorithm, and the Hill Cipher algorithm. The focus of discussion in this paper is on the Hill cipher algorithm. The modifications made to the Hill cipher algorithm lie in its key matrix. In this paper, it will be shown how to encrypt and decrypt the message we want to send using the Hill cipher algorithm with the matrix being a adjacency matrix. In which case, the adjacency matrix itself is obtained from the representation of the graph. It is hoped that this algorithm can avoid crypt attacks, especially on ciphertext only-attack.Keywords: Hill cipher algorithm, cryptography, adjacency matrix, plaintext, ciphertextMSC2020: 94A60

Covid cases in Indonesia have started to decline since the vaccination program was carried out in January 2021. Until now the vaccination program in Indonesia has reached the third vaccination stage or booster vaccine. The booster vaccine aims to strengthen the vaccine dose that has been given previously, with the hope of reducing the number of confirmed patients with the Covid-19 virus. To determine the effectiveness of the booster vaccine in reducing the number of Covid-19 in Indonesia, it is necessary to conduct research using the Mann-Whitney non-parametric trial method. This journal will discuss the analysis of the effectiveness of the third dose (booster) vaccine using the Mann-Whitney test. The data collection used is data on the number of patients confirmed positive for Covid before the booster vaccine, namely from July to December 2021 and the number of patients confirmed positive after the booster vaccine from February to July 2022. Whitney manually is 15 while the p-value value in the calculation of Mann Whitney with SPSS is 0.631. The results of calculations provide a conclusion that the third dose vaccination (booster) is not effective in the reducing the number of patients of covid-19 confirmed for the Covid-19.Keywords: Covid-19, Vaccines, Mann Whitney testMSC2020: 62G05, 62G10

Authors: Wijaya Andreas Rony
Published: October 2023

The exchange rate of the Rupiah against the currencies of other countries is one of the factors in identifying the condition of an economic condition. The value exchange rate can be strengthened or weakened at any time, according to the country's situation. Fluctuations of the Rupiah exchange rate could affect domestic inflation. Therefore, it is necessary to plan a good policy, considering the Rupiah's movement in the future. One of the currencies that affect the world's economic conditions is the United States Dollar. This study forecasts the Rupiah's exchange rate against the United States Dollar (USD). Data is obtained from Bank Indonesia, with the period of the data used from January 2018 to August 2022. One method of forecasting time series data is the Autoregressive Moving Average (ARIMA) method. The best model is selected based on the smallest AIC and BIC values. Based on the analysis of model selection, the ARIMA(1, 0, 1) model is the best model for forecasting the exchange rate of the Rupiah against the US Dollar. The results of the prediction of the Rupiah exchange rate show that the exchange rate of the Rupiah against the US Dollar has increased and decreased, which was not significant. Keywords: ARIMA, exchange rate, forecasting, time seriesMSC2020: 62M10
A Study on the Integration Approach between South Korean National Accreditation for higher education institutions and Major Global University Rankings
Authors:   Korean Comparative Education Society, Choi Da Jeong
Published: October 2023

[Purpose]As we enter the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution, characterized by intensified global competition, the importance of high-quality education and research capabilities has grown significantly. However, there is a projected significant decrease in the number of college admissions due to a declining school-age population, which has led to increased interest in university evaluation systems that influence university reform and government support policies. Nevertheless, recent South Korean universities have experienced declines in some rankings in global university evaluations, and their efforts to enhance international competitiveness are facing limitations.
[Methods] In this study, I examined indicators from the South Korean domestic university accreditation evaluation known as the “3rd Cycle University Institutional Accreditation”, as well as evaluation indicators from major global university rankings such as QS and THE. I compared the evaluation indicators of QS and THE world university rankings and calculated their similarities. Additionally, detailed indicators between university institutional accreditation evaluations and major global university rankings were compared.
[Results]The similarity between university institutional accreditation evaluations and major global university rankings(including sustainability evaluations) is very low. However, in the “University Performance and Social Responsibility” domain, which is closely related to global university rankings, there is a high potential for linkage. As a result, I have derived “strengthening indicators” with the aim of enhancing the international competitiveness of universities and indicated “linkage indicators”.
[Conclusion]By aligning the indicators of legally binding the university accreditation evaluations with those of major global university rankings, it is anticipated that the preparation for domestic university institutional accreditation and the preparation for global university ranking assessments can be conducted simultaneously, thereby assisting in improving universities' international competitiveness and enhancing their internal competitive capabilities.

Introduction: The International Health Regulations (IHR) were developed to prepare countries to deal with public health emergencies. The spread of SARS-CoV-2 underlined the need for international coordination, although few attempts were made to evaluate the integrated implementation of the IHR’s core capacities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether IHR shortcomings stem from non-compliance or regulatory issues, using Portugal as a European case study due to its size, organization, and previous discrepancies between self-reporting and peer assessment of the IHR’s core capacities.Methods: Fifteen public health medical residents involved in contact tracing in mainland Portugal interpreted the effectiveness of the IHR’s core capabilities by reviewing the publicly available evidence and reflecting on their own field experience, then grading each core capability according to the IHR Monitoring Framework. The assessment of IHR enforcement considered efforts made before and after the onset of the pandemic, covering the period up to July 2021.Results: Four out of nine core IHR capacities (surveillance; response; risk communication; and human resource capacity) were classified as level 1, the lowest. Only two were graded level 3 (preparedness; and laboratory), the highest. The remaining three) (national legislation, policy & financing; coordination and national focal point communication; and points of entry) were classified as level 2.Conclusion: Portugal exemplifies the extent to which implementation of the IHR was not fully achieved, which has resulted in the underperformance of several core capacities. There is a need to improve preparedness and international cooperation in order to harmonize and strengthen the global response to public health emergencies, with better political, institutional, and financial support.

Climate-active building enclosures
Authors: Lucarelli Caio de Carvalho , Oliveira Matheus Menezes , Carlo Joyce Correna
Published: October 2023

The building energy demand and anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions have risen since the preindustrial period, reaching the highest levels. Brazil is the eighth largest consumer of primary energy globally, with buildings accounting for 51.2% of the total electric energy consumption. In this sense, the building enclosure has substantial potential and the lowest cost for reducing energy expenditure. The dynamicity of environmental factors allows for many design approaches, and since the user comfort analysis evolved, time-varying building skin configurations emerged. When coupled with computational design, the building's skins no longer must compromise to one stationary condition that is never optimal to any particular condition. These climate-active envelopes need a seemingly conveyed characterization or a straightforward design process as a relatively new technique. We aimed to differentiate climate-active building typologies and gather the latest compositions and performance assessment metrics, rendering an integrative literature review, state-of-the-art, and bibliometric analysis. As the main results, we assembled tabular data on 100 research pieces considering various study methodologies, climate-active typologies, movement categories, actuation styles, simulation engines, and performance criteria, demonstrating that most studies evaluated facade typologies, concerned temperate climates and adopted simple, binary movement characterizations. Furthermore, the design process for active building enclosures needs to be clearer and well-structured, and the available computational tools still need improvement.
Climatic conditions as a guideline to mass customisation in Brazilian housing
Authors: Souza Larissa Pereira de , Bavaresco Mateus , Geraldi Matheus Soares , Vaz Carlos Eduardo Verzola , Ghisi Enedir
Published: October 2023

Reducing the housing deficit is a vital issue to be addressed in developing countries. Although government programmes in Brazil aim to reduce it, there is criticism regarding the housing design, especially about their poor thermal performance. Guaranteeing high levels of thermal performance in affordable housing is expected to improve occupants’ satisfaction and reduce energy consumption. Therefore, this article aims to propose a system to develop solutions for designing a housing-unit module that enables adaptation to climate, topography, and site plan, as well as flexibility regarding expansions and changes in the pattern of use. Guidelines were created to develop the adaptable housing unit framework, which was programmed in Grasshopper to allow parametric design. One of the possible compositions was simulated using EnergyPlus and Ladybug Tools to determine suitable envelope characteristics for different climates. This process relied on multicriteria analyses to determine the best solution considering cooling and heating degree hours. Thermal performance simulation results show that the envelope solution for Florianópolis differs from that for São Joaquim, even with the same shape composition. While Florianópolis has lower wall absorptance and brick walls as the best solution, São Joaquim requires insulated walls and higher wall absorptances. The main conclusion is that such a framework is more feasible than a single solution because the design might be adapted according to problems identified a priori. This outcome is expected to guide practitioners toward sustainable development, considering the vital role that affordable housing plays in Brazil.

Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease Symptom Burden Index (CKD-SBI) is an instrument measuring symptom burden developed by Almutary and colleagues in 2015 to refine the identification of symptom burden in chronic kidney disease population. This instrument has not been tested for Indonesian language, thus, the aim of study was to translate and psychometrically testing the Indonesian version of CKD-SBI.
Methods: This study design was cross-sectional study. The study methods were divided into translation and psychometric testing. The translation was conducted by adapting Guillemin and Beaton's guidelines. The psychometric properties determined 320 hemodialysis patients with several inclusion criteria such as above 18 years old, regularly receiving hemodialysis for more than 3 months. Patients with cognitive impairment, psychiatric patients, and in critical condition were excluded.
Results: The item content validity index of the Indonesian version was 0.92, and the subscale content validity was 0.78. The instrument demonstrated convergent validity with the Kidney Disease Quality of Life. Excellent internal consistency was demonstrated based on a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of .91 and a subscale ranging from 0.86 to 0.92. The confirmatory factor analysis showed that the five factors of English Version did not fit the Indonesian version. 
Conclusions: Translated Indonesian versions of CKD-SBI can be used as instruments to assess symptom burden among patients with hemodialysis. By assessing symptom burden, we hope nurses in the hospital are able to decide effective symptom management to increase the health-related quality of life among these populations.

Democracia algorítmica e poder de polícia estatal: a regulação de fake news no Brasil sob o prisma do direito administrativo ordenador
Authors: Finger Otávio Martins , Silva de Gregori Isabel Christine
Published: October 2023

Este trabalho teve como objetivo averiguar como o poder de polícia do Estado pode funcionar para realizar uma regulação juridicamente adequada das fakenews e de mecanismos algorítmicos com fins eleitorais no Brasil. Assim, foi examinado, a partir da literatura pertinente, o problema das fake news e da lógica algorítmica nas redes sociais, incluindo o conceito de fakenews e as consequências do cenário decorrente delas e do uso dos algoritmos para o curso da democracia. Foram analisadas as características do poder de polícia estatal, como os âmbitos para que se espraia e os seus eventuais limites, a partir do direito positivo e de considerações doutrinárias. Ao final, ambas as temáticas foram relacionadas, com o fim de encontrar uma resposta ao problema proposto. Concluiu-se que o regramento atual se restringe, em grande medida, à responsabilidade criminal de condutas relacionadas às fake news, não havendo menção sobre a possibilidade de uso do poder de polícia normativo, fiscalizatório e sancionador. Ainda assim, o poder de ordenação estatal mantém-se como alternativa à regulação do fenômeno das fakenews e da lógica algorítmica, a partir dos parâmetros constitucionalmente fixados para resguardar o regime democrático e os direitos fundamentais.

LA RELIGIÓN PROVINCIAL ROMANA EN EL CONVENTUS CORDUBENSIS: UN ANÁLISIS A TRAVÉS DE LA EPIGRAFÍA VOTIVA
Authors: Barroso Romero Rafael Antonio
Published: October 2023

En este estudio tratamos de reconstruir la estructura y composición de los principales cultos y creencias religiosas que se desarrollaron en el territorio perteneciente al conventus Cordubensis en época romana. Para ello, utilizamos los datos proporcionados por las fuentes epigráficas, que ilustran el lógico predominio de Júpiter y la práctica de los cultos mistéricos, así como el escaso culto a divinidades indígenas que convivieron con las grecorromanas. De esta forma, la enorme preeminencia de las divinidades romanas sobre las restantes refleja una clara tendencia a la romanitas.

On the Possibility of Using Medical Linear Electron Accelerators as a Source of the Reference Pulsed Photon Radiation Field
Authors: Zaharadniuk A. A. , Taraev A. Y. , Lazarenko S. V.
Published: October 2023

Sources of pulsed photon radiation are widely used in science and industry. In this regard, there is a growing demand for dosimetry instruments capable of operating in these pulsed photon radiation fields. Until now there is no comprehensive methodology that describes the characteristics of reference fields of pulsed photon radiation required for calibration and verification of dosimetry equipment. The aim of this paper was to study the possibility of using a medical linear electron accelerator as a generating source of a reference pulsed photon radiation field. The paper investigates main characteristics of photon radiation field (namely, spectrum and average energy) generated by CLINAC in two modes of operation: 6 MV and 18 MV. Additionally it researches the possibility of attenuation of the CLINAC photon radiation intensity by a lead filter. The spectrum and average energy of the CLINAC photon radiation were calculated by means of Monte Carlo simulation in the Fluka program. The validation of the calculation was determined by comparing the attenuation coefficients calculated by the model with ones obtained experimentally by using real CLINACs. Experimentally, the attenuation coefficients were obtained by measuring the air kerma rate generated by the photon radiation fields of Varian VitalBeam and Varian iX CLINACs at a given point of space. Based on the simulation results, the Ḣ*(10) ambient dose equivalent ratio generated by CLINACs were calculated. It was found that the lead filter effectively attenuates the CLINAC photon radiation in terms of both air kerma rate and ambient dose equivalent rate to levels suitable for calibration of dosimetry equipment designed to measure pulsed radiation. It is shown that the lead filter significantly affects both the photon spectrum of the CLINAC and its average energy.
Dynamic Properties of Remote Sensing Algorithm in Digital Resistance Elements
Authors: Romaniuk F. A. , Rumiantsev V. Y. , Novash I. V. , Rumiantsev Y. V.
Published: October 2023

In microprocessor-based distance protection of lines, digital resistance elements are used as measuring instruments for determining the components of the input resistance vector and their subsequent mathematical comparison with the boundaries of the selected response characteristics. The values of the resistance vector components are calculated from the voltages and currents measured at the installation site of the protection. The most common are algorithms for remote measurements of input resistance based on: two samples of instantaneous values of line voltage and current; line models; using orthogonal voltage components and current. In the resistance elements of modern microprocessor line protections for remote measurements, the last of the above algorithms is most widely used. Its dynamic properties are determined mainly by the implemented method of generating the orthogonal components of the input signals. In distance protection measuring device, non-recursive digital Fourier filters are predominantly used for this purpose. To improve the dynamic properties of the remote measurement algorithm based on them, it is proposed to correct additionally dynamic errors in transient modes. In the dynamic modeling environment MATLAB-Simulink-SimPowerSystems, digital model is implemented that allows for a comparative assessment of the dynamic properties of the proposed algorithm for remote measurements of input resistance based on the results of a computational experiment. The research results have shown that the proposed algorithm for remote measurements of input resistance has higher dynamic properties compared to the known ones.

As part of ensuring the country's energy security and pursuing a policy of decarbonization of the economy in the Republic of Belarus, the maximum use of its own fuel and energy resources (FER) is expected. However, the question of choosing the type of heat source in centralized heat supply systems when using local fuels (LF) remains open. The commissioning of the Belarusian Nuclear Power Plant and the relatively high specific cost of electricity generating capacities using local fuels tip the scales to the use of boiler houses as heat sources. However, world experience in the development and application of heating, as the most energy-efficient solution in the field of heat supply, requires a more thorough study of this problem. The paper presents an overview of the use of local fuels in Belarus and a number of European countries with developed centralized heat supply. Based on the analysis of open source data, the paper provides information on the state of use of local fuels in district heating systems of the Republic of Belarus and a number of European countries that have experience in the widespread use of solid biomass and where it constitutes a significant share in the structure of thermal and electrical energy production in relation to other fuel and energy resources. The main aspects of the energy programs of a number of European countries with the largest share of thermal and electrical energy generation using local fuels are presented. It has been revealed that the energy program of Finland is of the greatest interest for Belarus, where the share of nuclear energy in the structure of electrical energy production, just like in the Republic of Belarus, is approaching to 40 % and the energy strategy assumes an increase in the share of thermal power plants using local fuels in the structure of heat and electricity generation.
Annuli Liquid-Level Surveillance Using Distributed Fiber-Optic Sensing Data

Published: October 2023

Annular pressure buildup due to fluid expansion can be mitigated by using a compressible fluid, typically nitrogen, as a cushion at the top of an annuli. The advantage of using a nitrogen cushion is that we do not have to manipulate annuli pressures as often during variations in production. A disadvantage is that it is more difficult to detect small leaks to or from an annulus. For gas lift-assisted production wells, Annulus A is used for the transportation of gas down to the gas lift valves (GLVs), effectively making up a large gas cushion compared with the full length for the annulus. In light of this, monitoring annular pressures and ensuring continuous control of fluid volumes are essential for effective well barrier management.

We present relevant theory and show that we can track annuli liquid levels using distributed temperature sensing (DTS) and/or distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data to detect leaks, estimate leak rates, and infer leak paths. We find that the main cause for observing liquid levels in these data is because the equilibrium temperature at the fiber is dependent on the fluid fill of the various annuli in addition to the temperature inside the tubing and outside of the well. Six data examples with variations in liquid level(s) are presented to demonstrate this. Furthermore, simple models for estimating changes in liquid levels are proposed and compared with liquid levels from distributed fiber-optic (FO) data. Being able to detect leaks to or from annuli makes it possible for the operator to apply mitigating action in a timely manner, prevent unwanted well integrity situations, and ensure production regularity.

Background: Patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA) have a high restenosis rate which increase the risk of stroke, and there is still lack of effective treatment for restenosis. The cause of stenosis is related to local inflammatory reactions, Some basic researches have shown that the inflammatory response causing arterial stenosis is closely related to the nerve axons distributed in its outer membrane, and that removal of the nerve is effective in reducing the inflammatory response to prevent arterial stenosis. Therefore, we propose to design a randomized controlled trail to study whether disconnecting carotid sinus nerve during CEA operation can reduce the arterial restenosis.
Method/design: This study is a randomized, double-blind, single-center study. We will recruit 180 patients, who will be randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. Based on standard CEA operation, the operator searched the carotid sinus nerve on the surface of the internal carotid artery and entirely transected it in the experimental group. Both groups will be guided with the same postoperative treatment, and were followed up every three months for three years after the operation. The main indexes observed will be carotid restenosis rate, incidence and nature of carotid plaque, and carotid blood flow velocity. Other indexes will be arrhythmia, blood pressure variability, and biomarkers of atherosclerosis, such as blood lipid, hsCRP, homocysteine and total bilirubin.
Discussion: It is expected that carotid sinus nerve transection will significantly reduce the occurrence of restenosis after CEA, alleviate the ischemic stroke caused by it, and realize the effective primary prevention of stroke.

Effective decision-making across various domains of society necessitates the adept use of appropriate methods and software to achieve optimal outcomes. This need becomes especially critical in situations where human lives are in jeopardy, and substantial material damages are at stake. The escalating prevalence of natural disasters worldwide highlights the intrinsic threat they pose to protected values, underscoring the importance of comprehensive risk assessments. The paper explore the implementation of the software DEXi in conjunction with DIBR (Defining Interrelationships Between Ranked criteria) method in a rough environment and Fuzzy LBWA (Level Based Weight Assessment) method. The utilization of the Bonferroni aggregator further enhances the earthquake risk level assessment for protected values in the Republic of Serbia. The Rough DIBR and Fuzzy LBWA methods play a pivotal role in determining the criteria weights, and their values are aggregated with the Bonferroni aggregator. The risk assessment process is conducted using the Decision Support System (DSS) called DEXi. Proposed model undergoes rigorous testing, with authentic data sourced from official Disaster Risk Assessments of three cities and five municipalities in the Republic of Serbia. The validation process firmly establishes the model's credibility, laying a robust foundation for improved earthquake risk assessment practices.

Background & Aims: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a commonly used organic solvent in industry. Our previous studies have found that TCE can cause liver injury accompanied by macrophage polarization, but the specific mechanism is unclear. The epigenetic regulation of macrophage polarization is mainly focused on histone modification. Histone lysine demethylase 4A (KDM4A) is involved in the activation of macrophages. In this study, we used a mouse model we investigated the role of KDM4A in the liversof TCE-drinking mice and found that the expression of KDM4A, M1-type polarization indicators, and related inflammatory factors in the livers of TCE-drinking mice.
Methods: In the study, BALB/c mice were treated with TCE by drinking water. The mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: 2.5 milligrams per milliliter (mg/mL) TCE dose group (n=24) and 5.0 mg/mL TCE dose group (n=24), TCE used 1% DMSO to aid solubilization, the vehicle control group (drinking water containing 1% DMSO) (n=24), and the blank control group (fed with normal drinking water) (n=24). Drinking water was replaced every 24 h to ensure the stability of the TCE concentration. The mice were sacrificed at four time points of 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks, and biological sample material were taken aseptically.
Results: TCE triggered M1 polarization of mouse macrophages, characterized by the expression of CD11c and robust production of inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α andIL-1β). Notably, exposure to TCE resulted in markedly increased expression of KDM4A in macrophages. Functionally, the increased expression of KDM4A significantly impaired the expression of H3K9me3 and H3K9me2 andincreased the expression of H3K9me1. In addition, KDM4A potentially represents a novel epigenetic modulator, with its upregulation connected to β-catenin activation, a signal critical for the proinflammatoryactivation of macrophages. Furthermore, KDM4A inhibitor JIB-04 treatment resulted in a decrease in β-catenin expression andprevented TCE-induced M1 polarization and the expression of the proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β. These results suggest that the association of KDM4A and Wnt/β-catenin cooperatively establishes the activation and polarization of macrophages and global changes in H3K9me3/me2/me1.
Conclusion: Our findings identify KDM4A as an essential regulator of the polarization of macrophages and the expression of inflammatory cytokines, which might serve as a potential target for preventing and treating liver injury caused by TCE.
