title: Characterization of the Futsch/MAP1B Rescue of Locomotion Defects in a Drosophila Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Creators: name: Gbadamosi, Monsurat Titi
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: The most abundant pathological protein in the debilitating neurodegenerative disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is TDP-43. Knock-down of its Drosophila homologue TBPH, recapitulates the disease in fly, with mutants showing reduced life span and locomotion impairment among other features. These can be restored by expressing human TDP-43 both in neurons and glial cells. It has been observed in TBPH mutants a reduction of the Futsch protein, the homologue of the human MAP1B responsible for the stabilization of the synaptic microtubule cytoskeleton during growth at the neuromuscular junction. We used our Drosophila model of ALS to investigate the role of Futsch in the rescue of locomotion defects observed in the disease using the UAS-GAL4 system. Futsch expression in TBPH mutants using both pan-neuronal and motor neuron-specific drivers show a significant rescue of larval motility. The synaptic organization defect observed in the mutants was recovered through the restoration of the synaptic branches, boutons and shape. Also some synaptic and vesicle proteins such as Dlg, Synapsin, Syntaxin, Csp and acetylated tubulin were recovered. The defect in the cycling of synaptic vesicles and the level of the BMP signal transducer, pMad were ameliorated by the expression of Futsch in TBPH mutants. It is interesting to note that TBPH mutants expressing the 4 GTPases Rab4 and Rab5, which are vesicle proteins associated with endosomal trafficking and recycling, were able to recover the levels of Futsch, acetylated tubulin and synaptic pMad. However, only Rab4 gave also a functional recovery of improved locomotion despite its reduced expression level compared to Rab5. We conclude that improved synaptic vesicle recycling system and enhanced BMP growth signalling are parts of the mechanisms involved in the recovery of locomotion defects observed in TBPH mutants expressing Futsch. We speculate that this recovery may be achieved through the functional anatomical recovery of the synaptic organization at the neuromuscular junction via the enhanced BMP growth signalling. Also included in the speculation is improved neurotransmission at the synaptic terminals resulting from the recovered vesicle recycling system.

description: We study the effects of models with a warped extra dimension on rare charm decays. While the new degrees of freedom in these models are bounded above a few TeV, they can leave signatures in rare charm decays with their tiny Standard Model background. We look at several channels with leptons in the final state along with several asymmetries of both kinematical and dynamical nature. CPT invariance is `usable' for analyzing the impacts of new dynamics in $D$ meson decays and in particular, rare decays of charm mesons.

Towards a theory of extremely intermittent pulsars I: Does something orbits PSR B1931 + 24 ?

description: We investigate whether one or many companions are orbiting the extremely intermittent pulsar PSR B1931+24. We constrained our analysis on previous observations of eight fundamental properties of PSR B1931+24. The most puzzling properties are the intermittent nature of the pulsar's activity, with active and quiet phases that alternate quasi-periodically; the variation of the slowing-down rate of its period between active and quiet phases; and because there are no timing residuals, it is highly unlikely that the pulsar has a massive companion. Here, we examine the effects that one putative companion immersed in the magnetospheric plasma or the wind of the pulsar might have, as well as the associated electric current distribution. We analysed several possibilities for the distance and orbit of this hypothetical companion and the nature of its interaction with the neutron star. We show that if the quasi-periodic behaviour of PSR B1931+24 was caused by a companion orbiting the star with a period of 35 or 70 days, the radio emissions, usually considered to be those of the pulsar would in that specific case be emitted in the companion's environment. We analysed four possible configurations and conclude that none of them would explain the whole set of peculiar properties of PSR 1931+24. We furthermore considered a period 70 days for the precession of the periastron associated to an orbit very close to the neutron star. This hypothesis is analysed in a companion paper.

description: Context. The binary B5V star BD+31?643 exhibits a disk-like structure detected at optical wavelengths. Even though the feature is well centered on the star, it has been argued, based on Spitzer observations, that the feature is a filament not directly associated to the binary star. Aims. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate whether polarization imaging may provide evidence either for or against the disk hypothesis. In addition, we aim at clarifying whether there might be any additional close companion to the binary star. Methods. We used the coronagraph PolCor in its polarization mode in combination with an EMCCD camera allowing short unit exposure times. As a result of shift-and-add and frame selection, the spatial resolution is improved compared to traditional CCD imaging. In order to possibly reveal an additional stellar companion, we used high resolution spectroscopy in the optical and high spatial resolution imaging in the near-IR. Results. The disk/filament is much better seen in polarization; it is narrow and a line drawn along the ridge passes within a second of arc from the star. The degree of polarization is high (?50% after correction for the extended component of the reflection nebula) which means that the disk/filament must be approximately at the same distance as the star. Although we confirm that the feature is much brighter south-east than north-west of the star, the evidence that the feature is physically connected to the star is strengthened and suggests that we are witnessing the destruction process of an accretion disk. Our spectroscopy shows that at least one of the stars is a spectroscopic binary. We were, however, not able to spatially resolve any stellar component in addition to the two well separated stars.

description: We study the impact of the nuclear dependence of R=σ_L/σ_T on the extraction of the F_2^A/F_2^D and F_1^A/F_1^D structure function ratios from the data on the σ^A/σ^D cross section ratios. Guided by indications of the nuclear dependence of R from the world data, we examine selected sets of EMC, BCDMS, NMC and SLAC data and find that F_1^A/F_1^D < σ^A/σ^D \leq F_2^A/F_2^D. In particular, we observe that the nuclear enhancement (antishadowing) for F_1^A/F_1^D in the interval 0.1 < x < 0.3 becomes significantly reduced or even disappears, which indicates that antishadowing is dominated by the longitudinal structure function F_L. We also argue that precise measurements of nuclear modifications of R and F_L^A have the potential to constrain the poorly known gluon distribution in nuclei over a wide range of x.

description: Within the context of Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics and its related hierarchies of integrable quantum Hamiltonians and potentials, a general programme is outlined and applied to its first two simplest illustrations. Going beyond the usual restriction of shape invariance for intertwined potentials, it is suggested to require a similar relation for Hamiltonians in the hierarchy separated by an arbitrary number of levels, N. By requiring further that these two Hamiltonians be in fact identical up to an overall shift in energy, a periodic structure is installed in the hierarchy of quantum systems which should allow for its solution. Specific classes of orthogonal polynomials characteristic of such periodic hierarchies are thereby generated, while the methods of Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics then lead to generalised Rodrigues formulae and recursion relations for such polynomials. The approach also offers the practical prospect of quantum modelling through the engineering of quantum potentials from experimental energy spectra. In this paper these ideas are presented and solved explicitly for the cases N=1 and N=2. The latter case is related to the generalised Laguerre polynomials, for which indeed new results are thereby obtained. At the same time new classes of integrable quantum potentials which generalise that of the harmonic oscillator and which are characterised by two arbitrary energy gaps are identified, for which a complete solution is achieved algebraically.

description: We discuss the connections between the recently observed Higgs-like particle and rare B decays in the context of two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). The measured decays of the Higgs boson to fermions and gauge bosons, along with the observation of the decay B_s -> μ+ μ-, place stringent restrictions on the allowed parameter space of 2 Higgs doublet models. Future measurements of h0 -> γγcan potentially exclude type I 2HDMs, while the parameters of other 2HDMs are already severely restricted. The recent observations of the h0 -> τ+ τ- and h0 -> b bbar decays further constrain the models.

description: We investigate whether there may be one or many companions orbiting at close distance to the light cylinder around the extremely intermittent pulsars PSR B1931+24 and PSR J1841-0500. These pulsars, behaving in a standard way when they are active, also "switch off" for durations of several days, during which their magnetospheric activity is interrupted or reduced. We constrained our analysis on eight fundamental properties of PSR B1931+24 that summarise the observations. We considered that the disruption/activation of the magnetospheric activity would be caused by the direct interaction of the star with the Alfvén wings emanating from the companions. We also considered the recurrence period of 70 days to be the period of precession of the periastron of the companions orbit. We analysed in which way the time scale of the "on/off" pseudo-cycle would be conditioned by the precession of the periastron and not by the orbital time scale, and we derived a set of orbital constraints that we solved. We then compared the model, based on PSR 1931+24, with the known properties of PSR 1841+0500. We conclude that PSR B1931+24 may be surrounded at a close distance to the star by a stream of small bodies of kilometric or sub-kilometric sizes that could originate from the tidal disruption of a body of moderate size that fell at a close distance to the neutron star on an initially very eccentric orbit. This scenario is also compatible with the properties of PSR J1841-0500, although the properties of PSR J1841-0500 are, by now, less constrained. These results raise new questions. Why are the asteroids not yet evaporated ? What kind of interaction can explain the disruption of the magnetospheric activity ? These questions are the object of two papers in preparation that will complete the present analysis.

Reliability and validity of the registrant risk assessment scale as a method of sexual offender risk assessment
Creators: name: Blanchette, Lauren Alicia
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Throughout the history of the United States, various laws have been in effect to manage convicted sexual offenders and the risk of recidivism, and risk assessment instruments have been developed and honed over the past several decades (Blacher, 1994; Hanson & Thornton, 1999). Some of these instruments, such as the Static-99R, have been widely used and validated across the globe. Others, such as New Jersey’s state risk assessment instrument, the RRAS, were developed relatively quickly in response to several factors, including a sudden increase in community and political pressure, and validity studies have been limited (Lanterman et al., 2014; Witt et al., 1996). This study sought to begin to address this gap in research by examining the RRAS’s reliability and validity, in part through assessment of concurrent validity with two widely used and validated measures, the Static-99 and Static-99R. A pre-existing data set of 61 case files, consisting of the RRAS and either the Static-99 or Static-99R, from adult male clients of Somerset Psychological Group were used in this study. Results showed internal consistency reliability below the recommended level for high-stakes decisions. A confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated nearly equivalent fit between three candidate models. We found significant concurrent validity between the RRAS and the Static-99R, but not the original Static-99. Although interpretation of these results must be tempered by the limited sample size, they raise important questions for the future of sexual offender assessment and how data from risk assessments are used for legal decision-making.

I then discuss progress in some cases where the sign problem can be handled, either because the sign problem is absent or because it is milder than in full QCD. Some time is spent on effective three-dimensional models, which can be treated with a variety of methods. I conclude with a discussion of the applicability of complex Langevin dynamics at nonzero density.

description: We obtain revenue guarantees for the simple pricing mechanism of a single posted price, in terms of a natural parameter of the distribution of buyers' valuations. Our revenue guarantee applies to the single item n buyers setting, with values drawn from an arbitrary joint distribution. Specifically, we show that a single price drawn from the distribution of the maximum valuation Vmax = max {V_1, V_2, ...,V_n} achieves a revenue of at least a 1/e fraction of the geometric expecation of Vmax. This generic bound is a measure of how revenue improves/degrades as a function of the concentration/spread of Vmax. We further show that in absence of buyers' valuation distributions, recruiting an additional set of identical bidders will yield a similar guarantee on revenue. Finally, our bound also gives a measure of the extent to which one can simultaneously approximate welfare and revenue in terms of the concentration/spread of Vmax.

description: Chalk rivers and streams are of conservation importance due to their ecological diversity, historical relevance and economic value. With more than 200 chalk watercourses, England is considered unusual in having the most chalk rivers in the world. However, due to increasing anthropogenic activities, many English chalk rivers and streams are becoming badly degraded. The non-biting midges or chironomids (Diptera, Chironomidae) are considered key-stone taxa in aquatic food webs, and have been used as ecological indicators of freshwater quality and environmental stress. Here we determined the generic richness, diversity, and community structure of Chironomidae across six sites in the mid-section of the Great Stour in Kent, a chalk river for which concern has been expressed regarding both water and habitat quality. Based on the morphological identification of 1336 insect larvae from the six sites (four in Westgate Parks, Canterbury, and two at nearby locations upstream and downstream from Canterbury City), a total of 20 genera of Chironomidae were identified, including some taxa indicative of freshwater habitats with low levels of organic pollution. There were different levels of generic richness and diversity among sites, and while there was little variation in the community composition among the sites within Westgate Parks, there were noticeable generic differences among Westgate Parks sites compared with those upstream and downstream, showing the highest complementarity and Beta diversity values. Overall, the results were comparable with other studies on chironomids in chalk rivers and other river systems. Although spatially limited to a small stretch of river, this represents the first study on chironomids in the Great Stour and provides baseline information on the diversity and structure of this important insect group with aquatic larvae, useful for the objective interpretation of any future biological assessments and monitoring programmes on the Kentish Stour, and also for comparisons with other chalk rivers.

description: This paper encompasses the synthesis, structural characterization, and evaluation of supercoiled pBR322 plasmid DNA-cleavage and DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging properties of newly synthesized tetra-substituted CoII (5), CuII (6), ZnII (7) and MgII (8) phthalocyanines bearing 4-methyl-N-(4-morpholinophenyl)benzenesulfonamide units at non-peripheral sites of phthalocyanine skeleton. The structural characterization of these new metallated phthalocyanines were performed via UV-vis, elemental analysis, FT-IR (ATR sampling accessory), 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopic techniques (for 7 and 8) and MALDI-TOF mass spectral data. The new compounds (5–8) exhibited good solubility in common organic solvents, and as well as no sort of aggregation was perceived at studied concentrations and solvents. Compound 7 indicated oxidative photocleavage activities in the presence of H2O2, indicating the conversion of supercoiled pBR322 plasmid DNA to nicked circular form (19.90%) and linear form (4.40%). Compound 5 displayed the highest radical scavenging activities among the tested compounds. The DPPH-radical scavenging percentages of 5 ranged from 85.35 ± 2.45% (12.5 µM) to 95.38 ± 1.44% (100 µM). These compounds are favorable for further research, owing to a broad range of biological and pharmaceutical activities of morpholine scaffold.

description: We extend our previous investigations of fermionic condensation in broad Feshbach resonances by using the two-channel model developed for narrow Feshbach resonances. We investigate two crossovers: the BCS-BEC crossover by changing the s-wave scattering length and the crossover from a narrow to a broad resonance by changing the atom-molecule coupling. At zero temperature we analyze, as a function of both atom-molecule coupling and s-wave scattering length, the chemical potential, the energy gap, and the condensate fraction of atoms. In particular, we predict the contribution of Cooper pairs and preformed molecules to the total condensate density along the two crossovers.

description: Reaction of VO(acac)2 with the hydrazone ligands N’-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3methylbenzohydrazide (H2L1) and N’-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-methyl-4-nitrobenzohydrazide (H2L2) afforded two oxidovanadium(V) complexes, [VOL1(OMe)(MeOH)] (1) and [VOL2(OEt)(EtOH)] (2), respectively. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV-Vis, molar conductivity and X-ray single crystal diffraction techniques. The hydrazone ligands coordinate to the V ions through the phenolate oxygen, imino nitrogen and enolate oxygen atoms. The V ions in both complexes are in octahedral coordination, with the three donor atoms of the hydrazone ligands, and with the other three sites furnished by one methanol or ethanol oxygen atom, one deprotonated methanol or ethanol oxygen atom, and one oxo oxygen. The complexes were assayed for their antibacterial activity on the bacteria B. subtilis, E. coli, P. putida and S. aureus.

description: A new 4-styrylpyridine (4-spy)-based square planar copper(II) complex, [Cu(4-spy)2(NCS)2] {4-spy = 4-styrylpyridine} (1), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The complex crystallizes in triclinic space group Pī and forms square planar geometry. Complex 1 is self-assembled to construct 3D supramolecular architecture via π–π interactions. Complex 1 exhibits strong biomimetic phenoxazinone synthase-like activity under mild conditions for the aerial oxidation of o-aminophenol to amino phenoxazinone, i.e. modeling the catalytic function of the copper-containing enzyme phenoxazinone synthase. The turnover number (k cat) for the process in methanol is 50.13 × 10−2 s−1. The mechanism of phenoxazinone synthase-like activity has been proposed for the Cu(II) catalyst with the help of mass spectral analysis. Density functional theory study has also been explored to corroborate the experimental findings.

description: In Newtonian gravity the final states of cold dissipationless collapses are characterized by several structural and dynamical properties remarkably similar to those of observed elliptical galaxies. Are these properties a peculiarity of the Newtonian force or a more general feature of long-range forces? We study this problem by means of $N-$body simulations of dissipationless collapse of systems of particles interacting via additive $r^{-α}$ forces. We find that most of the results holding in Newtonian gravity are also valid for $α\neq2$. In particular the end products are triaxial and never flatter than an E7 system, their surface density profiles are well described by the Sérsic law, the global density slope-anisotropy inequality is obeyed, the differential energy distribution is an exponential over a large range of energies (for $α\geq1$), and the pseudo phase-space density is a power law of radius. In addition, we show that the process of virialization takes longer (in units of the system's dynamical time) for decreasing values of $α$, and becomes infinite for $α=-1$ (the harmonic oscillator). This is in agreement with the results of deep-MOND collapses (qualitatively corresponding to $α=1$) and it is due to the fact the force becomes more and more similar to the $α=-1$ case, where as well known no relaxation can happen and the system oscillates forever.
