description: In drug discovery, assays with proximal readout are of great importance to study target-specific effects of potential drug candidates. In the field of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the determination of GPCR-G protein interactions and G protein activation by means of radiolabeled GTP analogs ([S-35]GTP gamma S, [gamma-P-32]GTP) has widely been used for this purpose. Since we were repeatedly faced with insufficient quality of radiolabeled nucleotides, there was a requirement to implement a novel proximal functional assay for the routine characterization of putative histamine receptor ligands. We applied the split-NanoLuc to the four histamine receptor subtypes (H1R, H2R, H3R, H4R) and recently engineered minimal G (mini-G) proteins. Using this method, the functional response upon receptor activation was monitored in real-time and the four mini-G sensors were evaluated by investigating selected standard (inverse) agonists and antagonists. All potencies and efficacies of the studied ligands were in concordance with literature data. Further, we demonstrated a significant positive correlation of the signal amplitude and the mini-G protein expression level in the case of the H2R, but not for the H1R or the H3R. The pEC(50) values of histamine obtained under different mini-G expression levels were consistent. Moreover, we obtained excellent dynamic ranges (Z' factor) and the signal spans were improved for all receptor subtypes in comparison to the previously performed [S-35]GTP gamma S binding assay.

description: This study demonstrated a remarkably simple and efficient method for the synthesis of the nanoscale zero valent iron/graphene nanocomposites. In order to prevent the agglomeration and restack of nanocomposites, chemical functionalization of nanocomposites with cetyltrim- ethylammonium bromide was proposed. The adsorption performance of surfactant-modified nanoscale zero valent iron/graphene nanocomposites was evaluated for the removal of para-nitrochlorobenzene from aqueous solutions. The characteristics of nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, BET surface area, fourier transform infrared spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The effect factors including initial solution pH, contact time, reaction temperature, dosage, initial concentration of humic acid on the adsorption property of para-nitrochlorobenzene onto surfactant-modified nanocomposites were investigated. The adsorption kinetics fitted well with pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption capacity of para-nitrochlorobenzene on surfactant-modified nanocomposites inferred from the Langmuir model was 105.15 mg/g at 293 K. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of para-nitrochlorobenzene onto surfactant-modified nanocomposites was an exothermic and spontaneous process. Humic acid had a strong suppression effect on p-NCB uptake in the adsorption experiment.

description: n an increasingly complex business world were qualms of gaining business legitimacy, commanding more social control over tangible and intangible resources are compounded by locational and firm size advantages and business culture, the pressure to formalise human resources processes has never been more acute. While these factors seem to have resonance with large corporations were the pressures of social acceptance and legitimacy are critical to effective competition, is it unclear what motivates small developing family owned businesses to seek formalisation of their human resource management (HRM) practices. This theoretical study, therefore, examines the dominant antecedent factors to the formalisation of HRM practices among family owned/managed SMMEs in developing African economies. The study argues that the formalisation of family owned SMMEs is a consequence of the intricate intersection of a complex web of motivational factors spanning individual firm factors with the internal and external environment.

Compound 1 contains binuclear copper clusters {Cu2L4Cl}3+ with Cl– as bridges. These binuclear clusters and [PW12O40]3– anions construct a supramolecular 2-D layer through hydrogen-bonding interactions. In 2, the [CuL2(H2O)]2+ subunits and Wells–Dawson anions build a 1-D supramolecular chain. In 3, the [PW12O40]3– anions are covalently linked by K+ to form an inorganic chain. These chains and discrete [ZnII(L)3]2+ subunits construct a 3-D supramolecular structure. The electrochemical and photocatalytic properties of 1–3 have been studied.

description: Aim: T-regulatory (Treg)/T-helper (Th) 17 imbalance contributes to the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis (AR). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in the progression of AR. Herein, the effect of lncRNA JP X on Treg/Th17 balance in AR was explored. Methods: CD4+ T cells were isolated from patients with AR and healthy control. The percentage of Treg and Th17 cells were examined by flow cytometry. The levels of JP X, miR-378g, CCL5, T GF-β, and IL-17A were tested using qRT-P CR. The protein expression of Foxp3 and RORγt was measured by western blot. Results: The data showed that an imbalance of Treg/Th17 was associated with AR. Upregulation of JP X was found in AR, and knockdown of which improved the imbalance of Treg/Th17. Furthermore, JP X functioned as a sponge of miR-378g to upregulate CCL5. Inhibition of miR-378g reversed the effects on Treg/Th17 induced by silencing of JP X. Moreover, overexpression of CCL5 reversed miR-378g-induced effects. Conclusion: In conclusion, depletion of JP X promoted Treg/Th17 balance in AR via regulating the miR-378g/CCL5 axis. The findings provided a novel therapeutic insight for AR.

description: The present study investigated the potential adverse effects of aluminum chloride (AlCl3) following a 4-week repeated oral administration in Sprague-Dawley rats. The test article was administered once daily by gavage to male and female rats at dose levels of 0, 100, 300, and 900 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks. After administration of AlCl3 at 900 mg/kg/day, treatment-related systemic toxicity manifested as significant increases in salivation incidence, neutrophil percentage, reticulocytes, serum triglyceride, adrenal gland and liver weights, and single-hepatocyte necrosis, as well as significant decreases in body weight gain, food intake, hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), lymphocyte percentage, serum total protein and albumin, and thymus weight in male rats; and significant increases in salivation incidence, serum triglyceride, and liver weight, as well as a significant decrease in lymphocyte percentage in female rats. At 300 mg/kg/day, a significant decrease in MCHC was found in male rats, but not in female rats. However, this finding was not toxicologically significant because the reduction was minimal and was not accompanied by changes in any other parameters. No treatment-related effects were observed in the 100 mg/kg/day group of both genders. Under the experimental conditions of this study, the target organs of AlCl3 were determined to be the blood, liver, and thymus in rats. The no-observed-adverse-effect level was found to be 300 mg/kg/day in rats of both genders.

description: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the level of contamination of breast milk (BM) by ochratoxin A, among Moroccan lactating mothers in the city of Rabat, and to identify the associated factors of exposure, also to estimate the degree of exposure of the breastfeed infant. The analysis of ochratoxin A (OTA) was accomplished by ELISA method on 82 colostrum samples. OTA was detectable (>0.08 ng/mL) in 55% of samples with a maximum concentration of 10.04 ng/mL, and the levels exceeded 0.5 ng /mL in 50 % of the samples. In addition, several factors and dietary habits affect significantly the level of OTA in the analyzed samples of breast milk including, the consumption of industrial dairy products, the frequency of consumption of canned foods, dried fruits and legumes, also the period of breast milk collection. Besides, OTA was higher than the tolerable daily intake for 49% newborns. However, these results need to be confirmed by multicenter studies to more broadly estimate the levels of exposition of Moroccan population to OTA. Furthermore, awareness campaigns are recommended to inform the public, especially pregnant women and lactating women about appropriate preventive measures to limit exposure to this mycotoxin.

description: Fungi are a rich source of novel anticancer compounds. Bioassay-guided isolation has led to the isolation of four polyketide-amino acid hybrid compounds with trans-fused decalin system from the fungus Thermothelomyces thermophilus ATCC 42464 (=Myceliophthora thermophila ATCC 42464): myceliothermophins A, B, E and F (1–4). The structure of the new compound (myceliothermophin F, compound 4) was clearly determined by a combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis and high-resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS). The new compound exhibited promising cytotoxicity against some cell lines derived from colorectal carcinoma, hepatic carcinoma and gastric carcinoma, indicating that compounds with trans-fused decalin system would be promising in the course of developing novel anticancer drugs.

description: Volatile organic compounds in the stamens, petals, and pistils of 56 water lily cultivars were determined by headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The stamens released a majority of the volatiles. A total of 117 volatile organic compounds were determined. Alkanes and alkenes were the most abundant, followed by aldehydes and ketones. Cluster analysis was used to divide the cultivars into three subsets characterized by specific aromatic compounds and associated aromas. Discriminant analysis confirmed the results of the cluster analysis. Three tropical water lily cultivars Colorata, 34, and Ai Ji Bai and one hardy water lily cultivar Somptuosa had particularly high aromatic compound concentrations and are recommended to produce fragrant, colorful, and hardy specimens.

description: O conceito de identidade tem vindo a adquirir uma importância acrescida nas discussões culturais e políticas da actualidade, sobretudo as que reflectem sobre sociedades em mudança e novas formas de interacção no contexto da globalização. O conceito de património, próximo do de identidade, posto ser no passado que se encontram os fundamentos das construções identitárias, tem igualmente sido alvo de manipulações várias e vem adquirindo novos contornos que vão muito além dos marcos físicos e das centralidades espaciais de outrora. O presente artigo visa contribuir para uma discussão actual dos dois conceitos, na perspectiva não só das novas configurações que os atravessam, mas também das ameaças que a sua reificação encerra à segurança, à justiça e à liberdade dos povos no contexto global.

Structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods. All these compounds were isolated for the first time from flowers, and five compounds (4, 5, 8, 9 and 11) were isolated for the first time from A. molle. All of these isolated compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antioxidant activity by using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging method. Quercetin (1), quercetin glycosides (2–8) and gallic acid (10) exhibited potent antioxidant activity.
Nation as narration: the (de)construction of “Yugostalgia” through Kusturica’s cinematic eye

description: O objectivo deste artigo é o de explorar o cinema de Kusturica, e em especial Underground (1995), no sentido de destacar os processos de construção e desconstrução da identidade na Jugoslávia dos anos de 1990. Situa-se, por isso, na encruzilhada em que os estudos (políticos) internacionais se cruzam com os estudos culturais, o que corresponde a um interesse renovado pelas ontologias sociais, i.e. pela identidade e todo o tipo de fenómenos ideacionais que produzem uma teia de significados intersubjectivos responsáveis por dar substância e textura ao universo social. Tomo assim como ponto de partida a noção de facto cinemático, da autoria de Cohen-Séat, para tornar mais clara a teoria de Homi Bhabha de que a nação é uma forma de elaboração cultural e narratividade. Uma vez que a comunicação de massas é hoje parte integrante na compreensão do horizonte de uma nação, a perspectiva do realizador de cinema torna-se um mediador privilegiado na leitura e narração da nação.

description: Lead tops the list of developmental toxicants released by industry into the environment according to Commission for Environmental Corporation. Hydrilla verticillata is an aquatic weed and rich source of variable nutrients and chemical constituents like saponins, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, detoxifying agents, etc. This weed is used in a beneficial way to detoxify lead in fish model. The fish were treated with sublethal concentration of lead to induce liver damage and fed with supplementary feed containing 20% of hydrilla dry powder. The present work revealed that lead accumulation is highly toxic to liver. Lead toxicity increased the expressions of cytochrome P450 1 A (CYP1A) and cytochrome P450 3 A (CYP3A) when compared to control. The metal binding stress proteins, heat shock proteins (Hsp60 & Hsp70) and metallothionein were also upregulated due to lead toxicity. Lead intoxicated fish exhibited reduced δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase activity in the blood, leading to reduced red blood cell count and changes in cell morphology. The lead toxicity also decreases the level of liver marker enzymes alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase in serum. In hydrilla supplemented protective group, there was amelioration of these changes. Administration of supplementary feed to the lead intoxicated protective group significantly decreased the expressions of CYP1A, CYP3A, Hsp60, Hsp70 and metallothionein genes. The red blood cell count in lead intoxicated fish was maintained almost normal due to the protective action of Hydrilla verticillata in the diet. The observed increase in the enzymes, which further confirmed the protective effect of Hydrilla verticillata against lead induced toxicity.

description: O texto aborda as notícias construídas sobre os congressos partidários em Portugal, nos anos de 1994, 1995, 2000 e 2001, que coincidem com o final de mandatos governamentais. Foram analisadas notícias provenientes de cinco jornais e revistas. Como objectivo principal do texto, pretende-se verificar se as notícias sobre congressos seguem um modelo de informação séria ou um caminho mais sensacionalista ou leve. Uma das principais conclusões aponta para a importância do agendamento dos congressos por parte dos meios escritos, uma vez que estas reuniões são elementos fundamentais para a prática democrática de um país.

description: The reactions of trivalent phosphorus esters, including trialkyl phosphites, dialkyl phosphonites, and alkyl phosphinites, with 3-halo- and 3,4-dihalo-furan-2,5-diones has been shown to lead to the formation of novel phosphorus ylides possessing additional phosphoryl-containing groups. For the reaction of 3,4-dihalo-furan-2,5-diones with trialkyl phosphites, the products are trialkoxyphosphonium ylides containing an adjacent geminal bisphosphonate unit. These can be used to provide a convenient route to novel 2,3,3-tris(dialkoxyphosphoryl)-substituted propionate esters which can be hydrolyzed to give the corresponding novel trisphosphonic monocarboxylic acid.

description: Due to the divergences of social-economic and cultural environments in the different regions, the existing conditions of historical towns in China emerge into two radical morphological forms, Static Town and Kinetic Town. In 2008, to avoid extreme dichotomic development situations and keep the authenticities of historical towns, the Chinese Historical Town Preservation Bureau formulated a standardized regulation, ‘Regulation on the Protection of Famous Historical and Cultural Cities, Towns and Villages’ (abbreviated 2008 Regulation – 历史文化名城名镇保护条例 2008). However, this 2008 Regulation resulted in two trajectories of redeveloping historical towns: government-driven and market-driven preservation approaches, accelerating the disparity of these two morphological forms. This paper reveals the morphologies differentiations of these two outcomes through the lens of demographic migration, economic structure, natural resource and social-spatial structure by comparing two renowned historical town redevelopment projects: the role model, Tongli Historical Town, as a Static Form, located in the wealthy South of Jiangsu Province and the controversial case, Yaowan Historical Town, as a Kinetic Form, located in less developed Northern Jiangsu Province. Eventually, this article explores the reasons behind the inevitability of the polarized historical trajectories' emergence and provides a comprehensive reinterpretation of the extremes triggered by the 2008 Regulation.

description: There is unequivocal evidence that altered biodiversity, through changes in the expression and distribution of functional traits, can have large impacts on ecosystem properties. However, trait-based summaries of how organisms affect ecosystem properties often assume that traits show constancy within and between populations and that species contributions to ecosystem functioning are not overly affected by the presence of other species or variations in abiotic conditions. Here, we evaluate the validity of these assumptions using an experiment in which three geographically distinct populations of intertidal sediment-dwelling invertebrates are reciprocally substituted. We find that the mediation of macronutrient generation by these species can vary between different populations and show that changes in biotic and/or abiotic conditions can further modify functionally important aspects of the behaviour of individuals within a population. Our results demonstrate the importance of knowing how, when and why traits are expressed and suggest that these dimensions of species functionality are not sufficiently well-constrained to facilitate the accurate projection of the functional consequences of change. Information about the ecological role of key species and assumptions about the form of species–environment interactions needs urgent refinement.
