description: Vibsane-type diterpenes, the characteristic compounds of Viburnum odoratissimum, exhibited significant cytotoxicity in many cancer cells. To search for the potential target of vibsane-type diterpenes on lung cancer, we combined methods of network pharmacology prediction and experimental verification. 80 active ingredients, 23 potential targets and 39 related pathways were analyzed through constructing the compound-target network and target-pathway network, and the potential target (EGFR) and key pathway (PI3K/Akt) were identified. Vibsanol C, an isolated vibsane-type diterpene with excellent cytotoxicity against lung cancer cells was chosen for further confirmation. Molecular docking study and drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) approach further indicated that EGFR is a direct target of Vibsanol C. Moreover, mechanistic studies revealed Vibsanol C might affect PI3K/Akt pathway by Western blot analysis. In conclusion, this study successfully predicted and confirmed the potential target of Vibsane-type diterpenes on lung cancer.

description: Scenarios for the emergence or bootstrap of a lexicon involve the repeated interaction between at least two agents who must reach a consensus on how to name N objects using H words. Here we consider minimal models of two types of learning algorithms: cross-situational learning, in which the individuals determine the meaning of a word by looking for something in common across all observed uses of that word, and supervised operant conditioning learning, in which there is strong feedback between individuals about the intended meaning of the words. Despite the stark differences between these learning schemes, we show that they yield the same communication accuracy in the realistic limits of large N and H, which coincides with the result of the classical occupancy problem of randomly assigning N objects to H words.

description: Present study was aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity, bactericidal mechanism of action, killing kinetics and anti-inflammatory activity of Isodon melissoides (Benth.) H. Hara essential oil. The gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed the presence of carvacrol (45.4%), p-cymene (11.6%) and thymol (11.3%) as major constituents of the oil. The oil displayed broad spectrum significant antibacterial activity (MIC: 0.13–8.33 ppm; MBC: 0.13–>33.34 ppm) against test strains. The oil exhibited a time and dose-dependent bactericidal effect. The oil disrupted the cell membrane by changing the cell membrane permeability. The essential oil significantly decreased the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines in LPS-induced inflammation in HaCaT cells without any cytotoxic effect. I. melissoides essential oil can be a promising alternative antimicrobial agent for the control of methicillin resistant staphylococci and other pathogenic bacteria tested, and also useful for the topical anti-inflammatory properties.

description: Microdilution assays were performed in order to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the ethanoic extract from the leaves of Bauhinia forficate (EEBF) against different microorganisms. The extract did not present inner antimicrobial activities against the tested strains. However, EEBF was able to modulate the norfloxacin-resistance against Staphylococcus aureus SA1199-B that overproduce the NorA efflux pump, once sub-inhibitory concentrations of EEBF reduced the minimal inhibitory concentratio of the norfloxacin in 87.5%. This modulatory effect was also found when the antibiotic was replaced by ethidium bromide, suggesting that EEBF acts probably by inhibition of NorA, allowing the antibiotic accumulation intracellularly, and making the line more sensitive. These results point out the EEBF potential as a source of NorA inhibitors that could be used in combination with norfloxacin for treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant S. aureus.

description: In our continuous search for cytotoxic compounds from the genus Zanthoxylum, chromatographic separation of the MeOH/CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract of Z. chalybeum yielded one new alkamide; 4-(isoprenyloxy)-3-methoxy-3,4-deoxymethylenedioxyfagaramide (1) and a known one; fagaramide (2). Similarly, from the MeOH/CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract of the stem bark of Z. parachanthum four known compounds; canthin-6-one (3), dihydrochelerythrine (4), lupeol (5) and sesamin (6) were isolated. Characterization of the structures of these compounds was achieved using spectroscopic techniques (NMR and MS). Using resazurin reduction assay 1, 3 and 6 displayed moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values below 50 μM against the drug sensitive CCRF-CEM and multidrug-resistant CEM/ADR5000 leukemia cell lines. It is interesting to note that 3 was more active than the standard drug, doxorubicin against CEM/ADR5000 leukemia cells. Compounds 3 and 6 showed good selectivity on leukemia cells than normal cells. In future studies 3 should be tested against a panel of drug resistant human cells.

description: Pithecellobium dulce is distributed in America and Asia where is widely used in traditional medicine. This study describes the bioguided fractionation of the methanol extract (ME) obtained from the P. dulce fruit that showed in vitro activity against Hymenolepis nana; Artemia salina assay was used to determine toxicity; and the purified compound was computationally analysed to obtain its absorption-distribution-metabolism-excretion-and-toxicity properties (ADMET). The ME and its fractions were more active than praziquantel (PZQ), and the purified compound was characterized as N-malonyl-(+)-tryptophan (NMT). Parasites treated with NMT showed shorter paralysis and death times (5 and 7 min) than those treated with PZQ (15 and 30 min), both used at 20 mg/mL. Toxicity and ADMET prediction results supported the slight-hazardousness and efficacy of the assayed fractions/compound. This is the first report of the antiparasitary activity of both the P. dulce ME and NMT, showing their potential to treat human H. nana infections.
Recessional velocities and Hubble's law in Schwarzschild-de Sitter space

description: We consider a spacetime with empty Schwarzschild-de Sitter exterior and Schwarzschild-de Sitter interior metric for a spherical fluid with constant density. The fluid interior may be taken to represent a galaxy supercluster, for which the proper distance from the center of the supercluster to the cosmological horizon has the same order of magnitude as the Hubble radius derived from Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmologies. The fluid interior and surrounding vacuum may also be considered as a model of the Local Group of galaxies in the far future. Particle motion is subject both to the attractive gravity exerted by the fluid and the repelling cosmological constant. Using global Fermi coordinates for the central observer within the fluid, the Fermi velocity, the astrometric velocity, the kinematic velocity, and the spectroscopic velocity, relative to the central (Fermi) observer, of a radially receding test particle are calculated and compared. We find that the Fermi relative velocity can exceed the speed of light in this model, but the presence of a positive cosmological constant causes recessional speeds of distant high energy particles to decrease rather than increase. We derive a version of Hubble's law for this spacetime which might be applicable for the analysis of a receding mass within a great void adjacent to a supercluster, relatively isolated from gravitational sources other than the supercluster. We also compare some of our results to related behavior in FRW cosmologies and consider implications to arguments regarding the expansion of space.

description: MGRO J2019+37 is an unidentified source of very high energy gamma-rays originally reported by the MILAGRO collaboration as the brightest TeV source in the Cygnus region. Despite the poor angular resolution of MILAGRO, this object seems to be most likely an extended source or, alternatively, a superposition of point-like TeV sources. In order to contribute to the understanding of this peculiar object, we have mosaiced it with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) in Pune, India, at the 610 MHz frequency covering a field of view of about 6 square degrees down to a typical rms noise of a few tenths of mJy. We also observed the central square degree of this mosaic in the near infrared Ks-band using the 3.5 m telescope and the OMEGA2000 camera at the Calar Alto observatory (Spain). We present here a first account of our observations and results, together with a preliminar cross correlation of the radio and infrared source catalog as well as a correlation with the available X-ray observations of the region.

description: We study the entanglement of an impurity at one end of a spin chain with a block of spins using negativity as a true measure of entanglement to characterize the unique features of the gapless Kondo regime in the spin chain Kondo model. For this spin chain in the Kondo regime we determine- with a true entanglement measure- the spatial extent of the Kondo screening cloud, we propose an ansatz for its ground state and demonstrate that the impurity spin is indeed maximally entangled with the cloud. To better evidence the peculiarities of the Kondo regime, we carry a parallel analysis of the entanglement properties of the Kondo spin chain model in the gapped dimerised regime. Our study shows how a genuine entanglement measure stemming from quantum information theory can fully characterize also non perturbative regimes accessible to certain condensed matter systems.

The objectivity of colour-statements
Creators: name: Harvey, Jean
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The main purpose of the thesis is to investigate colour-concepts as they are applied to physical objects to see what is required if they are to meet the requirements for objectivity. The first part of the work is to set out in general terms the condition that must be met for an empirical statement to be objective, and that condition is claimed to be corrigibility. If an empirical statement is to be corrigible in the required sense, then it must be "possible" for a human being to test that statement "soundly", and mere logical possibility is not what is looked for. When someone tests an empirical statement and reaches a verdict as to its truth or falsity, that verdict is "basically sound" only if he follows the test-instructions correctly and has the minimum perceptual ability needed for that test to be reliable in the situation in which it is used. Other conditions affecting the verdict's soundness are desirable, but these two are required if the verdict is not to be rejected outright as unsound. So if any empirical statement is to be objective, it must be possible to reach basically sound verdicts about it, and so it must be possible to give sense to the soundness conditions and to detecting when they do not hold. The focus is then directed to colour-statements about physical objects-statements ascribing particular colours, such as red or green, to physical objects, and also statements about the sameness/difference in colour of a pair of objects. It is argued that it is possible to detect if two people have (qualitatively) the same perceived colours when they look at the same physical object in the same environment, even if there is a 'systematic transposition' of colours holding between them. It is also argued that for a viable concept of "the colour of a physical object" there must be a general uniformity among the perceived colours human beings have on viewing physical objects. It is this required uniformity that makes that concept anthropocentric in nature. For the uniformity to be 'non-accidental1, we need to provide a description of a human viewer's physical state, a description that will cover the vast majority of all viewers' physical states. The description I refer to as the "standard-state description"; it must describe those features of a viewer's state that are relevant to colour-vision, and there are limits as to how imprecise it can be and still retain its required role. After explaining what is involved in the concept of "the colour of a physical object", I indicate how we could derive practical tests for the particular colour of a physical object, and if we can give sense to the basic soundness condition for these tests, and to detecting when these soundness conditions do not hold, then, I claim, such statements would be objective. Finally, a condition is placed on who would count as a "fine discriminator" of physical objects by their colour, and this illuminates the anthropocentric nature of the concept of "the difference of colour between two physical objects".

Codimension-2 surfaces and their Hilbert spaces: low-energy clues for holography from general covariance
Creators: name: Neiman, Yakov
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We argue that the holographic principle may be hinted at already from low-energy considerations, assuming diffeomorphism invariance, quantum mechanics and Minkowski-like causality. We consider the states of finite spacelike hypersurfaces in a diffeomorphism-invariant QFT. A low-energy regularization is assumed. We note a natural dependence of the Hilbert space on a codimension-2 boundary surface. The Hilbert product is defined dynamically, in terms of transition amplitudes which are described by a path integral. We show that a canonical basis is incompatible with these assumptions, which opens the possibility for a smaller Hilbert-space dimension than canonically expected. We argue further that this dimension may decrease with surface area at constant volume, hinting at holographic area-proportionality. We draw comparisons with other approaches and setups, and propose an interpretation for the non-holographic space of graviton states at asymptotically-Minkowski null infinity.

description: The determination of mean first-passage time (MFPT) for random walks in networks is a theoretical challenge, and is a topic of considerable recent interest within the physics community. In this paper, according to the known connections between MFPT, effective resistance, and the eigenvalues of graph Laplacian, we first study analytically the MFPT between all node pairs of a class of growing treelike networks, which we term deterministic uniform recursive trees (DURTs), since one of its particular cases is a deterministic version of the famous uniform recursive tree. The interesting quantity is determined exactly through the recursive relation of the Laplacian spectra obtained from the special construction of DURTs. The analytical result shows that the MFPT between all couples of nodes in DURTs varies as $N \ln N$ for large networks with node number $N$. Second, we study trapping on a particular network of DURTs, focusing on a special case with the immobile trap positioned at a node having largest degree. We determine exactly the average trapping time (ATT) that is defined as the average of FPT from all nodes to the trap. In contrast to the scaling of the MFPT, the leading behavior of ATT is a linear function of $N$. Interestingly, we show that the behavior for ATT of the trapping problem is related to the trapping location, which is in comparison with the phenomenon of trapping on fractal T-graph although both networks exhibit treestructure. Finally, we believe that the methods could open the way to exactly calculate the MFPT and ATT in a wide range of deterministic media.

description: We show how the measured particle ratios at RHIC can be used to provide non-trivial information about the critical temperature of the QCD phase transition. This is obtained by including the effects of highly massive Hagedorn resonances on statistical models, which are used to describe hadronic yields. Hagedorn states are relevant close to $T_c$ and have been shown to decrease $η/s$ to the KSS limit and allow for quick chemical equilibrium times in dynamical calculations of hadrons. The inclusion of Hagedorn states creates a dependence of the thermal fits on the Hagedorn temperature, $T_H$, which is assumed to be equal to $T_c$, and leads to an overall improvement of thermal fits. We find that for Au+Au collisions at RHIC at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV the best square fit measure, $χ^2$, occurs at $T_c \sim 176$ MeV and produces a chemical freeze-out temperature of 170.4 MeV and a baryon chemical potential of 27.8 MeV.

description: Active motion is a concept in complex systems theory and was successfully applied to various problems in nonlinear dynamics. Explicit studies for gravitational potentials were missing so far. We interpret the Friedmann equations with cosmological constant as a dynamical system, which can be made active in a straightforward way. These active Friedmann equations lead to a cyclic universe, which is shown numerically.

description: Il nostro lavoro è incentrato su Filosofia dell’ineguaglianza, acceso libello di filosofia sociale in forma epistolare, composto da Nikolaj Berdjaev all’inizio del 1918. Nelle quattordici veementi lettere che costituiscono l’opera, egli critica aspramente l’idea di eguaglianza sociale e metafisica propagandata dai rivoluzionari, schierandosi a favore dell’ineguaglianza gerarchica, da lui considerata l’unica garanzia della libertà e della statura teantropica dell’uomo. Abbiamo suddiviso la nostra indagine in tre parti: il primo capitolo è un’introduzione storico-filosofica al testo, in cui sono evidenziati i concetti fondamentali del pensiero del Nostro; nel secondo capitolo abbiamo messo in luce il legame tra lo “stile filosofico” di Berdjaev e la cultura religiosa a cui egli appartiene, riflettendo poi sui problemi traduttivi che ne derivano; in particolare ci siamo soffermati sull’aforisticità del suo pensiero e sullo spiccato afflato emotivo che pervade la sua esposizione. Infine, abbiamo incluso nel terzo capitolo la traduzione di quattro lettere (Sulla rivoluzione, Sui fondamenti ontologico-religiosi della socialità, Sullo Stato, Sul regno di Dio) e della postfazione aggiunta da Berdjaev a Berlino nel 1923, in occasione della pubblicazione del libro.
description: This study deals with Nikolaj Berdjaev’s book The philosophy of inequality, written by the thinker at the beginning of 1918, immediately after the Russian Revolution. In the fourteen vehement letters that compose this work, Berdjaev harshly criticizes the idea of social and metaphysical equality promoted by the revolutionaries since he believes that only hierarchical inequality protects man’s freedom and his theandric nature from chaos. We divided our work into three parts: in the first chapter we have given a historical, cultural and philosophical introduction to the book, highlighting the basic concepts of Berdjaev’s thought. In the second chapter we have attempted to clarify the relation between Berdjaev’s “philosophical style” and the religious culture to which he belongs, and then we have drawn attention on the translation problems caused by this relation. Particular emphasis was placed on the aphoristic style of the philosopher and on his use of emotionally charged images and expression. Finally, the third chapter features the translation of four letters (About Russian Revolution, About ontological and religious grounds of sociality, About the State, About Kingdom of God) and of the afterword added by Berdjaev in 1923 in Berlin, on the occasion of the publication of The philosophy of inequality.

description: Il presente progetto di ricerca propone l’esegesi di alcune sezioni delle Grazie di Ugo Foscolo, secondo l’Edizione Nazionale (1985), a cura di Pagliai-Scotti. È stato fornito il commento delle seguenti sezioni: Prima redazione dell’Inno, Seconda redazione dell’Inno e Appendice alla Seconda redazione dell’Inno, Versi del Rito, Quadernone, Stesure milanesi: Viaggio delle api e frammenti sparsi. Tutte le stesure della Prima redazione dell’Inno e alcuni frammenti delle Stesure milanesi non erano mai stati commentati fino ad ora. Il commento offre una ricostruzione dell’intertesto delle Grazie – le fonti letterarie, erudite e figurative –, e punta alla storicizzazione e alla contestualizzazione della poesia di Foscolo. Attraverso lo studio dei frammenti nella loro evoluzione è possibile intendere come i tre inni, diventati uno soltanto nella redazione del Quadernone, rappresentino la sintesi di tutto il sapere e gli interessi foscoliani (eruditi, scientifici, filosofico-estetici e letterari), e come essi, sin dai primi esiti poetici, siano specchio delle esperienze biografiche dell’autore. Il commento proposto nella tesi ribadisce la complessità della poesia delle Grazie, nelle sue componenti civili e didattiche. Esso avanza nuovi e importanti spunti di indagine, ponendosi come viatico indispensabile per un futuro commento integrale.
description: This project is an attempt of commentary of some parts of Ugo Foscolo’s Le Grazie, according to the Edizione Nazionale (1985), edited by Paglia-Scotti. The following parts have been annotated: Prima redazione dell’Inno, Seconda redazione dell’Inno e Appendice alla Seconda redazione dell’Inno, Versi del Rito, Quadernone, Stesure milanesi: Viaggio delle api e frammenti sparsi. This is the first commentary of the whole section of Prima redazione dell’Inno and of some drafts of Stesure Milanesi. This commentary aims to show the literary, figurative and erudite sources of Le Grazie, and it contextualises Foscolo’s poem. The analysis of the evolution of these drafts proves that the three hymns ¬– which become one in the later draft of Quadernone – represents the synthesis of all Foscolo’s knowledge. Since the beginning of the poetic composition, Le Grazie reflect Foscolo’s autobiographical experiences. Furthermore the commentary explains the public and political aspects of Le Grazie, and it represents a fundamental basis for the future exegesis of the whole poem.

description: La ricerca, che ha per oggetto lo studio dell’apprendimento guidato dell’italiano come lingua seconda da parte di apprendenti lituani, si articola in quattro capitoli. I primi due costituiscono il quadro teorico della ricerca, dedicando il primo ai fondamenti teorici e ricerche empiriche in generale e il secondo alle ricerche sull’apprendimento dell’italiano come L2. Nel terzo capitolo viene presentata la metodologia della ricerca, mentre nel quarto capitolo vengono presentati i risultati, concentrandosi in particolare sull’ortografia, sulla morfologia del nome, sulla categoria del verbo e sugli aspetti sintattici.In base ai risultati conseguiti, che in parte confermano i percorsi acquisizionali rilevati in contesto di apprendimento spontaneo, vengono all’ultimo suggerite alcune proposte applicative.
description: The research, focused on instructed Italian second language acquisition by Lithuanian learners, is divided in four chapters. The first chapter is dedicated to the theoretical foundations of the discipline and the second to the research on Italian acquisition as second language. The third chapter is concerned with methodological issues whereas in the forth chapter the results of the research are presented by focusing particularly on the orthography, noun morphology, verb category and syntactic aspects. On the bases of the results, which partially correspond to the acquisitional sequences obtained in naturalistic acquisition context, some pedagogical implications are suggested.

description: We report measurements of differential cross sections and decay asymmetries of incoherent $ϕ$-meson photoproduction from the deuteron at forward angles using linearly polarized photons at \Eg=1.5-2.4 GeV. The nuclear transparency ratio for the deuteron shows a large suppression, and is consistent with the A-dependence of the ratio observed in a previous measurement with nuclear targets. The reduction for the deuteron cannot be adequately explained in term of isospin asymmetry. The present results suggest the need of refining our understanding of the $ϕ$-N interaction within a nucleus.

Perception of vowel nasalization in French
Creators: name: Lafargue, Andre Gustave
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The present study investigates the perception of vowel nasalization in French. Previous studies had shown that a nasalized vowel in a non-nasalized context was produced with the velopharyngeal port closed for part of the duration of the vowel. Similarly, it was found that an oral vowel in a nasalized context was produced with the velopharyngeal port open for part of the duration of the vowel. Single cycles were spliced out of vowels of both types at times corresponding to various and known velar heights. They were used to construct the stimuli of two listening tests. Each test also contained non-manipulated reference vowels (oral and nasalized) as controls to evaluate the listeners' responses. Native speakers of French were asked to rate, on a 5-point scale, the degree of nasality of each stimulus. There seems to exist a non-monotonic relationship between curves representing the listeners' judgement of nasality and those representing the timing of velar movement. Results also suggest that a rather large velopharyngeal cross-section may be necessary for a French listener to perceive an open vowel such as [a] as nasalized, whereas a smaller velopharyngeal cross-section may be sufficient to give a close vowel such as [e] and [o] a nasalized quality. It also appears that the listeners perform some kind of time integration of the nasality function in order to judge whether a vowel is nasalized or not. An acoustic analysis was carried out, using an analysis-by-synthesis method. It shows that different changes occur in the vowel spectrum as the velum lowers e.g., the first and second formant come close together and at least one zero is present when the velopharyngeal port is open. The position and movement of this zero in the spectrum suggest that there is a relation between the position of the zero on the frequency axis on the one hand, and size of the velopharyngeal cross-section and oral vocal tract on the other. The acoustic analysis also suggests that there exists some relation between the presence of a zero in the spectrum of vowels, the corresponding position of the velum and the perception of nasalization. Possible experiments are suggested for further research.

description: We consider the three-dimensional semi-relativistic Hartree model for fast quantum mechanical particles moving in a self-consistent field. Under appropriate assumptions on the initial density matrix as a (fully) mixed quantum state we prove, using Wigner transformation techniques, that its classical limit yields the well known relativistic Vlasov-Poisson system. The result holds for the case of attractive and repulsive mean-field interaction, with an additional size constraint in the attractive case.
