Abstract
Although it is clear that CD4+ T cells play a major role in mediating the pathogenesis of autoimmunity, they often represent only a minor population at the site of inflammation in autoimmune diseases. To investigate the migration and specificity of autoimmune T cells to the inflammatory site, we used the collagen-induced arthritis model to determine the frequency, clonotype, and specificity of T cells that infiltrate arthritic joints. We demonstrate that despite the fact that CD4+ T cells are a minor population of the synovial infiltrate, the CD4+ T cells present are a highly selective subset of the TCR repertoire and, based on CDR3 length polymorphisms, have a limited clonality. Although a similar repertoire of type II collagen (CII)-specific TCR-BV8 and BV14-expressing T cells was found in peripheral lymphoid organs, the clonality of the TCR-BV8 and BV14 T cells that migrate to the arthritic joint generally made up a single CDR3 length. T cell hybridomas produced from these joint-derived cells revealed that many of these infiltrating T cells are CII specific, and the majority recognize mouse CII. These data suggest that despite being a minor population at the site of inflammation, autoantigen-specific T cells are selectively recruited and/or retained in the arthritic joint and may be playing a significant role in the pathogenesis of the autoimmune arthritis. In addition, this model may be very useful for studying the function in situ and the mechanism by which autoimmune T cells are recruited to the site of inflammation.

AbstractAb class switch recombination involves a recombination between two repetitive DNA sequences known as switch (S) regions that vary in length, content, and density of the repeats. Abs expressed by B cells are diversified by somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination. Both class switch recombination and somatic hypermutation are initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID), which preferentially recognizes certain hot spots that are far more enriched in the S regions. We found that removal of the largest S region, Sγ1 (10 kb), in mice can result in the accumulation of mutations and short-range intra-S recombination in the donor Sμ region. Furthermore, elevated levels of IgE were detected in trinitrophenol-OVA–immunized mice and in anti-CD40 plus IL-4–stimulated B cells in vitro. We propose that AID availability and targeting in part might be regulated by its DNA substrate. Thus, prominently transcribed S regions, such as Sγ1, might provide a sufficient sink for AID protein to titrate away AID from other accessible sites within or outside the Ig locus.
A professional director's view – Interview with Kerry McDonald, President of the New Zealand Institute of Directors (2009-2010)
Authors: Smallman Clive 
Published: May 2010

Clive had the privilege of speaking with Kerry in late March 2010. They covered a number of governance issues, and here are Kerry's thoughts.From a New Zealand perspective, but also with an eye on the US and UK, and to a lesser extent Australia, for me the overriding issue is that boards and Directors are not providing consistently strong leadership that adds value to businesses.Underneath that I think that there are three specific issues. Firstly, there is a real shortage of directors with a strong business background. These are the sort of people who have been senior executives or chief executives. They understand strategy and leadership in the broadest sense of the word, and they can lead people and organizations. They have been well trained to make decisions and understand how business decisions are made. Critically, they know about sustained business improvement and creating high performance companies – how to lead people and to use systems to increase productivity. So, if you are trying to recruit directors now in New Zealand, there is a very limited pool of people who have that real depth of business background. There are a lot of people who want to be directors and who are trained in accounting, law and other professions, but there is an increasing shortage of people with the real depth of business experience that is required.
Board, ownership and performance of banks with a dual board system: Evidence from Taiwan
Authors: Huang Chi-Jui 
Published: May 2010

AbstractThe influence of corporate governance on a firm's performance has recently been studied in industrial enterprises in developed countries, but not in services such as banks with a dual board system in Asia's newly-industrialized economies (NIEs). This research examines the effects of board structure and ownership on a bank's performance using a sample of 41 commercial banks in an Asian NIE (Taiwan). Results showed that board size, numbers of outside directors, and family-owned shares are positively associated with bank performance, whereas the number of supervisory directors has a negative influence on performance. The findings provide empirical support for corporate governance, which improves the performance of banks with a dual board system in Taiwan.
Compliance culture: A conceptual framework
Authors: Interligi Lisa 
Published: May 2010

AbstractRegulatory reforms and changing community expectations about organizational behaviour have increased the emphasis on the role of culture in organizational compliance. This conceptual paper proposes a framework that captures the complexities of the relationship between compliance and culture by drawing from two theories relevant to organizational culture: Neo-Institutional Theory and the Competing Values Model. By integrating elements of these theories, three core dimensions of compliance culture are identified: legitimacy, permeability and control. These core dimensions provide for a pluralist approach to theorising around compliance culture. In addition to its theoretical contribution, the paper concludes that there may be practical utility in linking organizational compliance outcomes with performance on the three core dimensions. It is also suggested that compliance culture profiles using these dimensions may be used to predict how organisations might need to respond to regulatory reforms.
Opening the ‘black box’: Challenging traditional governance theorems
Authors: Erakoviç Ljiljana , Overall Joanna 
Published: May 2010

AbstractThis article presents both theoretical and empirical support for moving from a traditional governance research paradigm towards a more holistic research approach. This includes taking into account behavioural, contingency and evolutionary theories, in an effort to better understand governance processes and effective board behaviour. Specifically, the authors highlight the importance of three groups of relationships (board dynamics, board–management relationships and board–stakeholder relationships) as contributing to good governance practice. Whilst historically researchers have largely ignored the behavioural aspects of corporate governance, the authors have made an attempt to open the ‘black box’ of governance processes and practices, and illustrate with examples from three New Zealand companies how the development of these relationships are important for effective board functioning.
Corporate governance practices in Indian firms
Authors: Kota Hima Bindu , Tomar Sarika 
Published: May 2010

AbstractIn the wake of recent financial scandals and in the context of the global financial crisis, corporate governance is especially significant. We examine the effect of corporate governance practices on the performance of 106 mid-sized firms in India, between 2005 and 2007. Our results confirm a significant relationship between CEO duality and firm performance. We also find that a small board is more effective and enhances the value of the firm. However, in the Indian context, we find that non-executive independent directors are failing in their monitoring role.
Board and CEO practice in modem strategy-making: How is strategy developed, who is the boss and in what circumstances?
Authors: O'Shannassy Tim 
Published: May 2010

AbstractThe interplay of the board of directors (BOD) and the chief executive officer (CEO) in strategy-making has been the subject of some debate in the literature. Some experts argue the BOD should take a strong role in strategy-making while the alternative point of view is that the CEO is the key man or woman. In a qualitative study with 16 interviews of leading Australian industry figures, the CEOisfound to be the key player in modern strategy-making. The findings identify how the BOD, individual directors and the CEO can combine to add value to the organization, in particular how these organization members can team up and interact to achieve a faster, more flexible strategy cycle. The modern organization focus needs to be on giving more emphasis to the empowerment, interaction and creativity of the CEO and top management team. The BOD should focus on questioning, criticizing, refining and enabling the strategy proposed by the professional managers. However, the study indicates these findings are subject to exception and variation in relation to factors including specialist knowledge, track record of performance, personality attributes, personal power, and political and influencing skills. The major focus of attention of the BOD and CEO is the strategic-thinking related activities in strategy-making. Strategic planning still has an important role in formalizing strategy content, usually in a regular cycle.
Do consultants in corporate governance share a community? An empirical study on their practice
Authors: Peirano-Vejo Maria Elisa , Stablein Ralph E 
Published: May 2010

AbstractWe present an empirical study on the community of management consultants in the specialty of corporate governance. Although most studies on consulting are done on large multinational consulting firms, we suggest an alternative framework that encompasses the heterogeneity of the industry, considering also the smaller consulting firm and the independent consultant. We have qualitatively studied the practice of consultants specialized in corporate governance and looked for evidence of community belonging. Drawing on a Kuhnian theoretical framework and adapting his notion of knowledge creation to a governance consulting scenario, we explore community belonging, entry and exit mechanisms into the consulting community of governance, common culture and language, and regulation of the community. Findings confirm that consultants have mixed professional identities and an overlapping of memberships of various communities. Our results show that although no formal regulation or organization regulates corporate governance consulting, mechanisms such as reputation, career paths, experience and credibility work in strengthening the practice of the community.
Review of the corporate and healthcare governance literature
Authors: Bennington Lynne 
Published: May 2010

AbstractThe governance and effectiveness of the healthcare sector is paramount due to its impact on human well-being and the size of this sector of the economy. Astute governments and healthcare boards need to know how to improve the governance of the sector. Therefore, this review draws together the theoretical and empirical literature from both the corporate and healthcare governance literature to determine the state of knowledge that can confidently guide those who either perform board roles as directors or who create governance structures. It concludes by suggesting that further theoretical work and research are necessary, and that the focus of both needs to be broader to take into account the complexity of the sector.
