description: Terahertz (THz) quantum-cascade lasers (QCLs) are unipolar semiconductor heterostructure lasers that emit in the far-infrared spectral range. They are very attractive radiation sources for spectroscopy, since they are very compact and exhibit typical output powers of severalmWas well as linewidths in the MHz to kHz range. This thesis presents the development of methods to tailor the emission characteristics of THz QCLs and employ them for spectroscopy with highest resolution and sensitivity. In many cases, these spectroscopic applications require that the far-field distribution of the THz QCLs exhibits only a single lobe. However, multiple lobes in the far-field distribution of THz QCLs were experimentally observed, which were unambiguously attributed to the typically employed mounting geometry and to the cryogenic operation environment such as the optical window. Based on these results, a method to obtain a single-lobed far-field distribution is demonstrated. A critical requirement to employ a THz QCL for high-resolution spectroscopy of a single absorption or emission line is the precise control of its emission frequency. This long-standing problem is solved by a newly developed technique relying on the mechanical polishing of the front facet. A QCL fabricated in this manner allows for spectroscopy at a maximal resolution in the MHz to kHz range, but its accessible bandwidth is usually limited to a few GHz. In contrast, a newly developed method to utilize QCLs as sources for THz Fourier transform spectrometers enables highly sensitive spectroscopy over a significantly larger bandwidth of at least 72 GHz with a maximal resolution of typically 100 MHz. The application of QCLs as sources for THz Fourier transform spectroscopy leads to a signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range that is substantially increased by a factor of 10 to 100 as compared to conventional sources. The results presented in this thesis pave the way to routinely employ THz QCLs for spectroscopic applications in the near future.
Patterning of biomaterials by aerosol jet printing: A parametric study

description: Bioprinting is an emerging field with ongoing interest in the development of new techniques for structuring and patterning biomaterials in different configurations. Two-dimensional patterning techniques such as micro-contact or inkjet printing enable in vitro studies to investigate the effect of spatial organization on cell physiology. However, micro-contact printing requires relatively lengthy preparation times, while inkjet printing subject materials to significant shear forces and the resolution is limited to approximately 50 ​μm in practice. Aerosol jet printing (AJP) is a versatile, direct-write technique capable of high-resolution deposition of biological materials for cell patterning. However, the resolution and print quality are heavily influenced by a range of different printing parameters. This systematic study investigates the influence of critical printing parameters, using aqueous gelatin as a model biomaterial ink. Our results indicate that the tested parameters influence the line quality by inducing a change in one or more of the following primary processes: material deposition rate, evaporation rate and the aerosol jet focusing. Furthermore, with minimal adjustments to parameter settings, gelatin lines could be printed with a width of 30 ​μm. A systematic approach is outlined for the selection of suitable parameters for stable and accurate printing at a desired resolution. This provides a framework for approaching the optimization of parameters for novel combinations of biomaterial inks and substrates. An improved understanding of the complex interplay between different process parameters is expected to support the development of new applications of aerosol jet printing in biology.

description: Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, is currently recognized as a complex of six lineages
or Discrete Typing Units (DTU): TcI-TcVI. Recent studies have identified a divergent group within TcI - TcIDOM.
TcIDOM. is associated with a significant proportion of human TcI infections in South America, largely absent from
local wild mammals and vectors, yet closely related to sylvatic strains in North/Central America. Our aim was to
examine hypotheses describing the origin of the TcIDOM genotype. We propose two possible scenarios: an
emergence of TcIDOM in northern South America as a sister group of North American strain progenitors and
dispersal among domestic transmission cycles, or an origin in North America, prior to dispersal back into South
American domestic cycles. To provide further insight we undertook high resolution nuclear and mitochondrial
genotyping of multiple Central American strains (from areas of México and Guatemala) and included them in an
analysis with other published data

description: Endometrial cancer is the most common cancer of the female reproductive system. Combination treatment with specific agents has been widely used as a targeted therapy for cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of varying concentrations of perifosine and vitamin D on the human endometrial cancer cell line (HEC-1A). HEC-1A cells were exposed to perifosine (10 μM, 30 μM), vitamin D (50 nM, 200 nM) and combinations of both for 48 h and 72 h. Monitoring of cell proliferation in a time-dependent manner was performed with the xCELLigence RTCA DP system. The levels of BCL2, BAX and P53 mRNA expression were examined using RT-qPCR. Apoptosis was determined using Annexin V, which were followed by flow cytometry analysis. Ultra-structural morphology of cells was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for 72 h. The anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of the perifosine+vitamin D combination (30 μM + 200 nM at 48 h and 10 μM + 200 nM at 72 h) on HEC-1A cells were higher than in perifosine and vitamin D alone. It was observed that perifosine has increased the expression of BAX mRNA in HEC-1A cells in a dose-dependent manner. While perifosine+vitamin D combinations increased P53 mRNA expression in HEC-1A cells we did not find any significant change in BCL2, BAX mRNA expression levels. In TEM examinations of HEC-1A cells, perifosine appeared to lead autophagic cell death, whereas vitamin D caused paraptosis-like cell death and combination of perifosine+vitamin D caused apoptotic and non-apoptotic (paraptotic, autophagic and necrotic) cell death. Therefore, it is considered that the combination of both drugs in the treatment of endometrial cancer might be an alternative and effective treatment option through activating the apoptotic and non-apoptotic cell death mechanisms in cancer cells.

Interestingly, the reaction of isoprene and myrcene with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds yielded 2,2-disubstituted tetrahydrobenzofuran-4(5H)-one derivatives at room temperature. Thus, several substituted 2,3-dihydrofuran derivatives (3a–3h) with potential biological activity have been synthesized.

Useful Extensions of the Henry Reaction: Expeditious Routes to Nitroalkanes and Nitroalkenes in Aqueous Media

description: The products of the Henry nitroaldol reaction from nitromethane and several aldehydes were reduced to the corresponding nitroalkanes with (n-Bu)3SnH in water under microwave irradiation (80 °C/10 min), or dehydrated to the corresponding nitroalkenes with K2CO3 in water (generally 0–5 °C/20 min). Both “one-pot” reactions occur in excellent yields across a range of aliphatic and aromatic (including heteroaromatic) substrates. It seems likely that the deoxygenation of the nitroaldols occurs via coordination of an oxygen atom of the nitro group with a tin atom, which facilitates hydride delivery in the transition state. The elimination of water from the nitroaldols in mild base is likely driven by the stability of the conjugated nitroalkene products. The elimination required workup with 2 N HCl, which likely displaces a nitroalkane-nitroalkene equilibrium towards the latter. These extensions of the Henry reaction lead to products not easily obtained otherwise.

Effects of microflora composition in the phyllosphere on biological regulation of grapevine fungal diseases

Publisher: name: VITIS - Journal of Grapevine Research

description: Aqueous fermentation extracts of composted microbiologically active substrates reduced significantly the infestation of grapevine leaves with Plasmopara viticola under growth chamber conditions. Enhancement of efficacy was available through the enrichment of the extracts with nutrients - like sucrose and brewer's yeast - or with a natural surfactant (methylized cellulose). Studies on the microbial composition of the phyllosphere showed that the quantity of the total number of colony forming units, of yeasts/filametous fungi, of enterobacteria, of pseudomonads and of aerobic bacilli depends on the specific amendments to the extracts and on the microclimatic conditions. They ace responsible for the differences in efficiency of the various extracts against P. viticola. Appropriate investigations on the phyllosphere in a field experiment resulted in a different composition of the microflora, though the same combinations of extract amendments were used. This is caused by the varying environmental conditions. In spite of the changed microflora, the disease suppressing effects against Urcinula necator were preserved.

Bidirectional influences in mother-infant dyads: advanced HRV analysis in naturalistic settings
Creators: name: Rai, Richa

description: In the realm of neurodevelopment, rapid postnatal changes present a complex tableau of growth and adaptation. Amidst this dynamic process, heart rate variability (HRV) of infants, modulated by the autonomic nervous system, offers an early glimpse into their developing physiological landscape with potential impacts in the mother-infant relationship. This research offers the dyadic heart rate fluctuation dynamics as a barometer for the neurodevelopmental conditions that begin to shape the earliest chapters of the human social life.This thesis presents an analytical exploration of dyadic HRV dynamics as a potential biomarker of mutually experienced autonomic regulation in mother-infant dyads. The study utilized a unique dataset of naturalistic HRV recordings, approached initially without extensive background information. The dataset comprised 18 mother-infant pairs with recordings spanning 3-8 hours, capture the day-to-day variability in autonomic regulation. The exploratory nature of this work required the use of established techniques to validate the data, followed by the application of new lab-developed methods to analyze micro-fluctuations in inter-beat intervals. We then introduce an information theoretical approach to assess the dynamic, causal bidirectional influence within the dyads. The findings reveal a complex interplay between maternal and infant HRV, that automatically breaks the group into different self-emerging clusters of activity patterns. Furthermore, they reveal a predominant infant-led influence on maternal autonomic state. The research highlights the potential of HRV as an indicator of early development amenable to understand the physiological underpinnings of early mother-infant interactions. These insights contribute to the field of developmental psychophysiology and may inform intervention strategies promoting optimal early development of basic building units of synchrony and social rapport.Overall, this thesis underscores the utility of integrating traditional cardiac analytic techniques with innovative approaches to enhance our understanding of neurodevelopmental dynamics within the naturalistic settings of home environments.

description: In addition to phenolics, flavonoids, flavonols, alkaloids and condensed tannins, our tests identified the antioxidant and genotoxic properties in the crude extract (CE) and fractions of Urera baccifera (Urticaceae) roots and leaves. Oxalic acid (OA) content was determined by HPLC-DAD, which presented high values in the roots (1.82 ± 0.21, 1.79 ± 0.22 and 1.38 ± 0.15 mg/g in butanolic, CE and ethyl acetate fraction, respectively). OA caused a 30.7% reduction in the leucocyte proliferation, followed by butanolic fractions of roots (24.15%) and leaves (23.28%). The mitotic index was lower in butanolic fractions of leaves (8.7%) and roots (8.3%), similar to the OA index, which was 6.0%. The DNA damage index in cultured leukocytes was observed for OA (19.33) and butanol fraction treatments (22.67 and 16, respectively, for leaves and roots). Antioxidant capacity (DPPH and TBARS) was moderated, which was confirmed by the low phenolic, flavonol and flavonoid contents in both parts of the plant.

CAR T cell therapy becomes CHIC: “cytokine help intensified CAR” T cells

description: Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) in the canonical “second generation” format provide two signals for inducing T cell effector functions; the primary “signal-1” is provided through the TCR CD3ζ chain and the “signal-2” through a linked costimulatory domain to augment activation. While therapy with second generation CAR T cells can induce remissions of leukemia/lymphoma in a spectacular fashion, CAR T cell persistence is frequently limited which is thought to be due to timely limited activation. Following the “three-signal” dogma for inducing a sustained T cell response, cytokines were supplemented to provide “signal-3” to CAR T cells. Recent progress in the understanding of structural biology and receptor signaling has allowed to engineer cytokines for more selective, fine-tuned stimulation of CAR T cells including an artificial autocrine loop of a transgenic cytokine, a cytokine anchored to the CAR T cell membrane or inserted into the extracellular CAR domain, and a cytokine receptor signaling moiety co-expressed with the CAR or inserted into the CAR endodomain. Here we discuss the recent strategies and options for engineering such “cytokine help intensified CAR” (CHIC) T cells for use in adoptive cell therapy.
A chemotaxonomic investigation on Vitis vinifera L. II. Comparison among ssp. sativa traditional cultivars and wild biotypes of ssp. silvestris from various Italian regions

description: An extensive screening on regional representatives of Vitis vinifera ssp. sativa and silvestris was carried out to look for relationships and differences between different taxa. Total proteins in the pH range 4.0-5.5, and the enzymes AcP, ADH, EST, G-6-PDH, MDH, PGM and POD were recorded. Only patterns of storage protein subunits, AcP, EST and G-6-PDH were taxonomically informative. Dendrograms were computerized on the basis of presence/absence of individual bands; these always distinguish at different levels in homogeneous groups between ssp. sativa and ssp. silvestris. The acidic subunits showed a dichotomy from the first branching of the cladogram. These observations are a demonstration that neither hypotheses of direct or indirect origin of the Italian ssp. sativa from Italian ssp. silvestris via domestication is tenanble. The authors suggest that, the morphological, the ecological and the biochemical differences between the two taxa support the hypothesis that V. sativa and V. silvestris should be regarded as two separate taxa that have had reciprocal interactions such a long period of time that a precise location of origin is no longer possible.

Primary bud-axis necrosis of grapevines. I. Natural incidence and correlation with vigour

description: The incidence of primary bud-axis necrosis (PBN) was studied from 1980 to 1985 in Australian vineyards of varying vigour. Fifteen cultivars of Vitis vinifera L. were initially examined for the presence of PBN and, because Shiraz (syn. Syrah) proved to have the highest incidence, subsequent work emphasized this cultivar. Compound buds at nodes 2 to 9 from the base of the shoot (node 9 being the most distal node) were scored for the presence of PBN. PBN was found to be a significant cause of unfruitfulness in the Australian vineyards examined. Incidence was higher in seeded compared with seedless cultivars. Shiraz had the highest incidence but not as great as for other cultivars reported in Israel, Japan, Chile and USA. PBN incidence was highest in the basal nodes of thick shoots, especially if the node bore a lateral shoot. Buds with PBN produced more shoots but fewer bunches. Thinning of shoots ten days before and after flowering increased both shoot vigour and PBN incidence. This association was attributed to the greater vigour per se and not to any change in canopy light environment. PBN-caused loss of primary shoots is concluded to be a major cause of unfruitfulness in basal nodes of grapevines

description: In a six-year transmission trial using Scaphoideus titanus BALL the results were negative when the source of inoculum was symptomatic plants from vineyards of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. Transmissions were positive when the insects were fed on Perera symptomatic grapevines of the Valdobbiadene area (Veneto region). The data confirm that different types of grapevine yellows (GY) are present in the grapevine areas where we have been working. ELISA and PCR analyses corroborated that transmissions by S. titanus were positive only when the Flavescence doree sensu stricto type of GY is present.

Harnessing the Wisdom of Crowds

description:   Decision makers can improve judgment accuracy by aggregating information from mul tiple sources, taking advantage of the Wisdom of Crowds. A variety of judgment aggrega tion procedures have been proposed in previous literature, from simple approaches such  as taking the simple average to complicated methods such as computing the theoretically  optimal weighting method, yet no single aggregation rule can outperform others across  different data contexts. My work tends to address two questions: assessing whether the  available information about individuals’ past performance is sufficient for decision mak ers to rely on a weighted average; and guiding decision makers to select the most appro priate weighting method given the various proposed aggregation rules that perform well  in varied empirical data contexts. I develop a general algorithm to test whether there are  sufficiently many observed judgments for practitioners to reject using the simple average  and instead trust a weighted average as a reliably more accurate judgment aggregation  method. I demonstrate this test algorithm provides better guidance than cross validation  in simulated and real-world data. I also develop two weighting methods for pursuing  the empirically best performing aggregation rule by using the regularization technique  and the stacking learning algorithm respectively. I find the regularized weighting method  achieves a competitive performance with other previous wisdom-of-crowd models, albeit  with limited improvement over them when the data is sparse. I also find that stacking  multiple wisdom-of-crowds weighting models is the most promising way to improve the  wisdom of crowds given historical data.
