title: Investigating the role of the human transcription factor VEZF1 in erythroid and vascular endothelial differentiation
Creators: name: Rivera Gonzalez, Alejandro Xchel
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: VEZF1, differentiation, hematopoiesis, vascular endothelial.

description: VEZF1 is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor with epigenetic roles at gene regulatory elements, including protection from DNA methylation. Genetic ablation of Vezf1 in murine embryos is lethal due to haemorrhages localised in head and neck mainly. Interestingly, Vezf1 seems to be important for the generation of erythroid cells. The role of human VEZF1 in erythroid gene regulation was the primary focus of this study. Previous work found that VEZF1 unexpectedly interacts with the majority of erythroid-specific enhancer elements, including those at the α- and β-globin gene clusters, in the K562 cell line, a long- standing model for erythroid progenitor cells. The co-occupancy of VEZF1 with well characterised erythroid transcription factors and histone marks associated with active enhancers indicated that VEZF1 may support the regulation of the erythroid gene regulatory programme. To understand the role of VEZF1 in erythroid gene regulation and differentiation, we used CRISPR technology to knock out VEZF1 in K562 and hESCs. RNA-seq analysis revealed that VEZF1 does have regulatory roles at several erythroid genes, but it is not essential for the erythroid gene regulatory programme. VEZF1 null K562 cells display increased levels of haemoglobin biosynthesis. Intriguingly, we find that VEZF1 protein levels are progressively downregulated during the in vitro erythroid differentiation of human ESCs. VEZF1 null ESC cultures commit more readily to the erythroid lineage at the onset of erythropoiesis, which then proceeds as normal. VEZF1 is therefore not required for human erythropoiesis and appears to be an early regulatory block to erythropoiesis proceeding effectively. Careful inspection of the cultures at a stage prior to the onset of erythroid differentiation revealed that a sub-population of endothelial precursors was absent in VEZF1 null ESC cultures. We demonstrate that the absence of VEZF1 prevents the efficient differentiation of endothelial cells. The role of VEZF1 in vascular endothelial development is therefore conserved in mammals, although the impact on human endothelial differentiation appears to be more profound. VEZF1 is anticipated to be a key regulator of the vascular endothelial gene regulatory programme.

description: Dieser Vortrag richtete sich an Mitarbeitende in der (kirchlichen) Jugendarbeit. Er sollte aufzeigen, was jugendliche Sprechstile sind und welche Funktionen sie haben können. Dies dient als Basis für den sprachlichen Kontakt mit Jugendlichen und auch als Zugang zur Kommunikation von Jugendlichen untereinander. Es wurde gezeigt, wie kreativ viele Jugendliche mit ihrer Sprache umgehen und wie diese Kreativität allenfalls in der Jugendarbeit eingesetzt werden könnte. Voraussetzung dafür ist ein genaues Zuhören, wenn Jugendliche Sprechen und auch ein Interesse an ihrem sprachlichen Umgang miteinander.

description: Dolomites in Arctic Ocean sediments are widely attributed to erosion and transport of sediments from northern Canada and Greenland. Coarse-grained dolomite-rich ice-rafted debris is often linked to iceberg transport, but the origin of fine-grained dolomite is less well constrained. A presumed source is the Mackenzie River. In this article, we fingerprint the minerogenic and isotopic (Nd and Sr) composition of deglacial and Holocene fine-grained sediments (<38 μm) from the shallow Mackenzie Trough. Sediments from an 81.5-m borehole (MTW01) were analyzed. The borehole is composed of a progradational (deltaic), transitional (transgressive), and marine unit (<9.4 cal. ka BP). The average dolomite content (~7 percent) and ɛNd signals (−13.3) are surprisingly constant in the progradational and marine units. The isotopic signature is inherited from the Interior Platform, the major underlying bedrock region of the Mackenzie River mainstream. The transitional unit contains fluctuations in ɛNd (−11.0 and −14.6), reflecting enhanced input from the North American Cordillera and Canadian Shield that are not associated with elevated amounts of dolomite. Additional studies combining minerogenic and detrital ɛNd analyses from sites proximal to the paleo-icestreams draining the Canadian Arctic are required to ascertain the origin of dolomite enrichment in central Arctic Ocean sediments.

description: In der Arbeit des NetzwerkWasserAgri wurde deutlich, welche Bedeutung und Wirkung die Entwässerungssysteme Brandenburgs auch heute noch haben. Um die Problematik und den heutigen Stand aufzuzeigen, veranstaltete die Klimapraxis im Februar 2022 die Tagung „Paradigmenwechsel: Von der Trockenlegung Brandenburgs zur Wasserrückhaltung in der Landwirtschaft. Wie können alte Entwässerungssysteme heute reguliert werden?“. Die Veranstaltung in Seddin war ausgebucht: 115 Teilnehmende tauschten sich aus, wie wir heute mit den alten Entwässerungssystemen - Drainagen, Grabenstaue, Vorfluter - umgehen können. Acht Referierende gaben ihre Erfahrungen und ihr Wissen weiter an Praxis, Verwaltung, Kommunen und Politik. 

Die vorliegende Kurzstudie soll Hintergrundinformationen zu diesem wichtigen Thema liefern, das bis heute die Brandenburger Landschaft und den Wasserhaushalt maßgeblich bestimmt und über das in der jüngeren Generation kaum Wissen vorhanden ist, sei es bei Junglandwirt*innen, Studierenden, Verwaltungsmitarbeitenden oder in der Bevölkerung. Die große Aufgabe, unter den Bedingungen des Klimawandels Wasser in der Landschaft zu halten, statt es weiter in Nord- und Ostsee abzuführen, können wir nur gemeinsam lösen. Dazu möchte diese Studie beitragen.

title: National identity, nationalist discourse and the imagined nation in post-Soviet Russia
Creators: name: Blackburn, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: national identity, post-soviet, Russian nationalism, nationalism 'from below', ethnographic fieldwork, normality, myths, political legitimacy, civic-ethnic nationalism, Homo Sovieticus, geopolitical identity, the constituent 'Other', citizenship, nationality, patriotism, social contract.

description: This thesis attempts to account for post-Soviet Russian national identity and nationalism ‘from below’, employing the ‘thick descriptions’ of the nation reproduced by ordinary Russians across social and generational lines. It examines the current equilibrium in mainstream nationalist hegemonic discourse, shedding light on the vitality of the nation as an ‘imagined community’. In doing this, nationalism is viewed as a set of discursive formations that make claims about how or what the nation is or should be. A central aim in this research is to highlight what discursive constructions are shared or contested across a representative sample of the Russian population. In order to offer a meaningful assessment of nationalist discourse, this research employs ethnographic fieldwork driven by a grounded theory approach. With fifteen months of fieldwork in three Russian cities, this permitted room for exploration and siginificant redirection of the research focus. This helped reveal the interconnections between certain common, foundational elements of national identity and the structure of a dominant nationalist discourse. Previous research has often focused on the challenges of Russian nation-building given the complicated heritage bestowed by the Romanov and Soviet empires. This thesis identifies certain historical and cultural factors vital to the shaping of Russian national identity today. It also identifies a current hegemonic nationalist discourse and unpacks how it is relevant to the majority. This dominant discourse is built on certain myths and versions of normality, much of which takes the late Soviet as ‘normal’ and the wild nineties as ‘abnormal’. The thesis also explores how the above is contested. What is argued is that, at the current moment, the challenge of anti-hegemonic nationalist discourses is, for many people, neutralised by the appeal of a particular geopolitical vision. This research outlines how visions of the nation are weaved into commonly shared notions of identity and underlines how the current status quo is held together.

What are the practices and experiences of prescribing practitioners in the United Kingdom? A mixed-methods study
Creators: name: Rae, Bernadette Emma
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2024

description: Background Pharmacological treatment is the most common form of healthcare intervention; 1.1billion items were dispensed in the community in England alone in one year. With increasing numbers of prescribers being educated, and a growing number of professions being eligible to undertake the course, it is imperative to understand the reasons why some prescribers do not use their qualification, or why severe constraints are restricting practice for some. The restricted or nonuse of the qualification is wasteful of the expense of education and invested time. Prescribing rights, for healthcare professionals other than doctors, began in the United Kingdom (UK) with nurses and health visitors in 1992. Currently, the UK has more professions eligible to prescribe than any other country: nurses, midwives, podiatrists, pharmacists, physiotherapists, radiographers, dietitians and advanced practice paramedics. Although they all undergo identical education and assessments in the V300 course as all other professions, dietitians and diagnostic radiographers are restricted to supplementary prescribing where everyone else have independent prescribing rights. Study Design This is a mixed methods investigation of the practice and experience of prescribing practitioners in the United Kingdom. An integrative literature review was undertaken and Role Theory, encompassing identity theory, social theory and organisational theory, was used as the theoretical framework. Phase 1 is a quantitative survey with an original questionnaire. There were n409 valid responses. Descriptive statistics were analysed with the use of SPSS. Phase 2 consisted of n11 qualitative semi-structured interviews. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. Findings from both phases were discussed together. Findings The key findings show that the use of supplementary prescribing is increasingly restrictive in the rising use of advanced clinical practice roles. Newly qualified prescribers are in a vulnerable position as confidence is low at this point, and almost half declared they do not have the level of support they need. There are healthcare practitioners who have qualified and never prescribed; lack of support, lack of confidence, lack of need to prescribe in their clinical area are cited as reasons. Colleague support and supervision, along with CPD, are recognised as highly influential to a prescriber flourishing or failing to prescribe. There are still prescribers who experience significant delays due to IT systems that are unable to accommodate their profession. The Competency Framework for All Prescribers became a mandatory part of prescriber education in 2018 and there is currently a wide variation of prescriber awareness of or experience using the Framework. Underpinning all these aspects is how they affect, or are affected by, prescriber confidence. These findings have implications for Higher Education Institutes, practice and further research.
