description: Weaning leads to social, nutritional and housing changes for the piglet and challenges health. This study assessed the opportunity to use biomarkers of oxidative stress to qualify piglet health. Piglets were weaned at  21 or 28 days of age in optimal (OC) or deteriorated (DC) conditions (n=16 per group). In OC post-weaning pens, animals originating from 2 litters were housed by 4 in cleaned pens. In DC pens, animals originating from 4 litters were housed by 8 in dirty pens. From 12 to 61 days of age, blood was collected for reactive oxygen metabolites (dROM) and biological antioxidant potential (BAP) measurements, and pigs were weighed weekly. Average daily weight gain (ADG) was lower in DC than OC pigs (P<0.001) and slowed down for 11 days after weaning. Greater Oxidative Stress Index (OSI, dROM/BAP) was transiently observed 12 days after weaning compared to pre-weaning levels for DC but not OC pigs (P<0.05) due to higher dROM (P=0.04) and similar BAP concentrations (P=0.48). BAP concentration decreased (P<0.001) 19 days after weaning whatever conditions. OSI was negatively (P<0.001) influenced by ADG. In conclusion, management conditions deteriorating piglets’ health at weaning without obvious clinical signs can be detected by measuring oxidative stress status.

Enheduana's Exaltation of Inana
Creators: name: Helle, Sophus
Publisher: name: Database of Religious History (DRH)
Year: 2022

description: The Exaltation of Inana is a hymnic and narrative poem attributed to Enheduana, the daughter of king Sargon of Akkad, who served as the high priestess of Nanna in the city of Ur. She appears as the narrator and protagonist of the poem, but because all manuscripts of the text date to five centuries after her lifetime, the attribution is uncertain. The poem details Enheduana's expulsion from the city of Ur following a revolt led by a man named Lugal-Ane. She prays to Nanna, the god she has served, but he does not answer; so she turns instead to Nanna's daughter Inana, the goddess of love, war, transformation, and paradox, aiming to recruit Inana to her cause and elevate her to the top of the Sumerian pantheon. Most of the poem is a passionate, metaphor-laden paean to the terrifying powers of Inana, culminating in a selfreferential scene where Enheduana composes the text we have been reading in a night-time encounter with Inana - swaying and exalting the goddess, and thus saving herself.

description: Objectives We studied the involvement of serum-complement (C') and oxidative stress in the hemolytic anemias Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) and Auto-Immune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA), and the effect of fermented papaya preparation (FPP), an antioxidant-containing yeast fermentation product of Carica papaya Linn.
Methodology Normal human red blood cells (RBC) treated with the sulphydryl compound 2-aminoethyl isothiouronium bromide demonstrated a PNH-phenotype (reduced surface expression of the protecting CD55 and CD59 antigens). AIHA was simulated by treating group-A RBC with anti-A antibodies. Both samples were exposed to C'-containing, O-type, serum.
Results Hemolysis, which was developed 40 min later, was preceded by an abrupt increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS). Both ROS and hemolysis were reduced by inactivating the C’ (by heat or by an anti-C’ antibody), and by FPP (20 mg/ml), indicating the involvement of C' and oxidative stress, respectively. One PNH patient treated with FPP showed reduced hemolysis.

Conclusion Currently, a humanized anti-C' monoclonal antibody is the main treatment for PNH and some other hemolytic anemias. Our results suggest a therapeutic role for antioxidants. Since FPP is well tolerated and relatively inexpensive, its use may be considered as an alternative or adjuvant therapy for PNH and other C'-mediated hemolytic anemias.

description: Lucidone is a naturally occurring cyclopentenedione was initially isolated from the fruits of L. erythrocarpa. Accumulating evidences indicate that lucidone possesses various therapeutic effects including, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, hepato-protective, dermato-protective and skin-whitening effects. Our studies revealed that lucidone protects hepatic cells from alcohol-induced oxidative stress via inducing anti-oxidant genes through the activation of Nrf-2 signaling pathway. Lucidone also suppress hepatitis C virus replication by Nrf-2-mediated induction of anti-oxidant genes. We recently reported that lucidone protects human skin keratinocytes against free radical-induced oxidative damage and inflammation through the up-regulation of HO-1/Nrf2 antioxidant genes and down-regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway. In addition, lucidone has strong anti-inflammatory activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation via suppression of NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, lucidone shows anti-diabetic activity by suppressing adipogenesis in adipocytes and attenuates obesity and consequent metabolic disorders in high-fat diet mice. Furthermore, lucidone has the anti-melanogenic effect that inhibits melanin production in melanocytes through the down-regulation of tyrosinase, which is highly comparable with anti-oxidant vitamin C.  Studies on structural activity relationship revealed that α-, β-unsaturated ketone moiety present in the skeleton of lucidone is the major reason for its anti-oxidant activity.

description: Oxidative stress induced by Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) was shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular pathologies [1]. Antioxidants like carotenoids have been suggested to contribute in their prevention and treatment [2]. Astaxanthin, a xanthophyll carotenoid has shown strong antioxidant activity. This capacity was previously confirmed by our team [3]. However, its hydrophobic nature restricts its applications in the medical field. Here, we present a system that enhance astaxanthin solubility and its ability to block ROS by inclusion into a cyclodextrin system. This inclusion was verified by infrared spectroscopy. Antioxidant activities of astaxanthin alone and after inclusion were chemically quantified by Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity, DPPH, and ORAC assays. DCFH-DA, a cell permeable probe was used to evaluate the complex intracellular cell scavenging activity on human endothelial cell subjected to oxidative stress. Here, we shown a highly improvement of astaxanthin capacities after inclusion. The active molecular mechanisms of cell defenses by PTEN/AKT cell signaling and the cells’ native antioxidant pathway, Nrf2/HO-1 and NQOI were evidenced. Our results are encouraging for the subsequent evaluation of astaxanthin capacities in vivo to prevent cardiovascular pathologies.

Resveratrol ameliorates Benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) induced testicular dysfunction and apoptosis : Involvement of p38 MAPK/ATF2/iNOS signaling.
Creators: name: Jana, Kuladip

description: B(a)P is an environmental toxicant that alters the steroidogenic profile of testis and induces testicular dysfunction. In this study, we have investigated the molecular signaling of B(a)P and the ameliorative potential of the natural AhR antagonist; resveratrol on B(a)P induced male reproductive toxicity. Studies showed that B(a)P treatment resulted in p38MAPK activation and increased iNOS production along with testicular apoptosis and steroidogenic dysfunction. Resveratrol co-treatment maintained testicular redox potential, increased serum testosterone level and enhanced major testicular steroidogenic proteins (CYPIIA1, StAR, 3β HSD, 17β HSD) expression and prevented subsequent onset of apoptosis. Resveratrol co-treatment resulted inhibition of testicular cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) expression, which is the major B(a)P metabolizing agent for BPDE-DNA adduct formation. Resveratrol also significantly decreased the B(a)P-induced AhR protein level, its nuclear translocation and subsequent promoter activation, thereby decreased the expression of CYP1A1. Resveratrol also down-regulated B(a)P-induced testicular iNOS production through suppressing the activation of p38 MAPK and ATF2 , thus improved the oxidative status of the testis and prevented apoptosis. Our findings thus suggest that resveratrol inhibits conversion of B(a)P into BPDE by modulating the transcriptional regulation of CYP1A1 and acting as an antioxidant thus prevents B(a)P-induced oxidative stress and testicular apoptosis.

OXIDATIVE STRESS AND CEREBRAL CAVERNOUS MALFORMATION DISEASE: FROM PATHOGENIC MECHANISMS TO PREVENTIVE AND THERAPEUTIC APPROACHES

description: Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) is a major cerebrovascular disease of genetic origin affecting 0.3-0.5% of the population and characterized by abnormally enlarged and leaky capillaries that predispose to seizures, neurological deficits and intracerebral hemorrhage. It occurs sporadically or is dominantly inherited with incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity.
 Three disease genes have been identified: KRIT1 (CCM1), CCM2 and CCM3; however, pharmacological treatment is not yet available. Previously, we demonstrated that KRIT1 plays a major role in modulating master regulators of ROS homeostasis and cell responses to oxidative stress, including FoxO1, SOD2 and c-Jun, suggesting that altered redox signaling and oxidative stress contribute to CCM pathogenesis.
 Recently, we found that defective autophagy and enhanced ROS production are common features of CCM gene loss-of-function, and underlie major disease signatures, suggesting a unifying pathogenetic mechanism. Furthermore, we identified genetic modifiers influencing disease severity, including polymorphisms of oxidative stress-related genes, and showed the effectiveness of distinct antioxidant compounds in rescuing disease phenotypes.
 Taken together, our data point to a major role for defective autophagy and altered redox signaling in CCM pathogenesis, and indicate that inter-individual variability in cell responses to oxidative stress may impact disease onset and severity, suggesting novel preventive and therapeutic approaches.

Blue-light dependent ROS formation by cryptochrome may represent a novel signaling mechanism.

description: Cryptochromes are evolutionarily conserved blue-light absorbing flavoproteins which participate in many cellular processes including entrainment of the circadian clock in drosophila and humans (1). They interact with downstream signaling partners following light dependent conformational change triggered by flavin reduction to the radical state (FAD°- or FADH°). Here we show that illumination of isolated Arabidopsis and drosophila cryptochromes in vitro results in the enzymatic conversion of molecular oxygen (O2) to ROS (reactive oxygen species). This occurs via reoxidation of flavin from the radical back to the oxidized (FADox) resting state. It involves transient accumulation of superoxide and results in the stoichiometric formation of one molecule of H202 per light photon absorbed (2). Illumination of cryptochromes in living Sf21 insect cell cultures likewise leads to blue light dependent ROS and H202 accumulation in vivo (3,4) Intriguingly, ROS formation occurs in the nucleus, which is the site of localization of cryptochrome. These observations  suggest that ROS formation by cryptochromes may represent a novel means of signaling that is unrelated to its known role in entrainment of the circadian clock. They also suggest cryptochromes as novel optogenetic tools for generating ROS.

Synthetic data generation is emerging as an important solution for precision medicine. Therefore, an explainable Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) model is developed for synthetic transcriptomics data generation in medulloblastoma. The model can be used to complement and interpolate available data with synthetic instances. It is also transparent as it is able to match the learned latent variables with unique gene expression patterns. The model can also be adapted to other pediatric cancers and the resulting synthetic datasets used to test and train patient, cancer, and drug models in other work packages of the iPC project.

description: Implantation of bone cements may lead to high levels of hydrogen peroxides from leukocytes that can damage surrounding tissue and lead to device failure. This response may be due to the surgical process or degradation products. We have synthesized small organoselenium molecules with hydrogen peroxide scavenging properties and studied their effects on cells. We assessed cellular toxicity of these compounds over a range of concentrations by exposing an osteoprogenitor cell line (MC3T3-E1) to them for three days and measured cell viability and proliferation using Alamar blue. Using a luminol based chemiluminescent assay and human blood derived mononuclear cells activated by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA, 500nM), we identified which compounds, at non-toxic concentrations, better scavenged hydrogen peroxide compared to ebselen, a widely studied compound with anti-inflammatory properties. Finally, we treated MC3T3s with organoselenium compounds and hydrogen peroxide (300 μM) and identified compounds which were able to protect against hydrogen peroxide induced toxicity. In conclusion, these organoselenium compounds are promising antioxidants and we are actively conducting studies to incorporate these molecules into bone regeneration scaffolds for reducing excessive inflammatory response.

description: With the increasing trend of the feline population at human homes, the risk of transmission of zoonotic agents increases. Part of feline diseases are caused by
 hemoparasites, being that part of them already have zoonotic character. The diagnosis of feline hemoparasitosis is still challenging, because some infections occur in healthy
 cats and, when symptomatic, the clinical signs are nonspecific. In this context, this work aimed to evaluate blood samples from cats residing in Cacoal-RO through blood count, biochemistry and research of hemoparasites and unique health. The cats sampled (n=100) were randomly chosen from rural and urban environments, including an animal shelter. Hematological analyzes were performed on an automatic counter - feline profile and semi-automatic device, respectively. The search for hemoparasites were performed from venous blood smears and Guiemsa stained capillaries. The Single Health analysis was carried out in loco. Among the evaluated animals, 23%
 showed hemoparasites suggestive forms on blood smear slides, where Anaplasma phagocytophilum inclusions (16/23) were the most identified, followed by A. platys
 (5/23), Mycoplasma spp. (3/23), piroplasms (3/23) and Ehrlichia spp. (1/23). The presence of more than one suggestive form was detected on slides from five animals.
 Regarding hematological analyses, 5% of the samples showed regenerative anemia.
 There was also an increase of Alanine amino transferase (ALT) and Aspartate amino transferase (AST) enzymes in 16% of the samples. The regenerative anemia
 associated with increased of the hepatic enzyme activity could be related to hemoparasitosis. Most cats in this study were clinically healthy, even with cytological
 and laboratory alterations. Through unique health analysis, it was evidenced that the behavior of tutors and caregivers can put their health at risk, as well as the animals in
 their care. This study suggests the circulation of hemoparasites with zoonotic potential in cats domiciled in Cacoal-RO and future studies using molecular biology will be needed to confirm these pathogens.

Year: 2016

description: Introduction
 Liver cirrhosis is associated with prominent morbidity and mortality. The aim of the current study is to investigate the effects of L-NAME and NTX in the prevention of oxidative stress in BDL rats by evaluation of oxidative stress markers in plasma.
Methods
 Rats received intraperitoneal injections of L-NAME (3 mg/kg), NTX (10 mg/kg) or saline once daily for 28 days after BDL or sham surgery. MDA, protein carbonyl content and total thiol as oxidative stress markers and biochemical indexes were measured in plasma samples.
 Results
 Treatment of Ntx in BDL rats during the study could slightly decrease the MDA production (P≤0.055) as compared to BDL group. After 4 weeks of intervention, protein carbonyl content was significantly lower in BDL+L-NAME+NTX group as compared to the related SO and BDL groups (P≤0.05).
 Discussion
 The results of the present study showed that the oxidative stress was higher in BDL rats and this situation is reflected in oxidative stress markers in plasma. Treatment of Ntx in BDL rats during the study could insignificantly decrease the MDA production and protein carbonyl content, also insignificantly increase total thiol as compared to BDL group, therefore, moderately prevent the severe liver injury.

title: Nanocarbon Devices and Sensors
Creators: name: Kumar, Sandeep
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED

description: Nanocarbon materials have the potential to substitute the silicon in devices that are needed to further improve in terms of scalability, speed of operation, and performance. Therefore, carbon nanotubes and graphene - allotropes with outstanding properties have been intensively explored over the years. This thesis contributes to the synthesis of nanocarbon materials and its use as sensing and transistor material by focusing on the topics: hysteresis in carbon nanotube field-effect transistors, selective molecule sensing with graphene field-effect transistors, and sensing applications in nanocrystalline graphene. Hysteresis in carbon nanotube transistors has limited its utility in large-scale device implementation. The issue of hysteresis in such device structures is addressed. A hysteresis-free device operation is achieved by packaging the carbon nanotube field-effect transistors between hexagonal boron nitride and a hydrophobic polymer Teflon. The findings indicate that hysteresis is eradicated only if the metal-carbon nanotube contacts along with the tubes are completely encapsulated with Teflon. The time dependence of reducing hysteresis for encapsulated devices indicates out-diffusion of water molecules adsorbed at the metal-nanotube contacts. Graphene field-effect transistors suffer the issue of selectivity applications. A novel sensor based on graphene field-effect transistor and surface-mounted metal-organic frameworks is demonstrated. The sensor shows sensitivity and selectivity to ethanol molecules by the shift in Dirac voltage of graphene and is insensitive to other alcohols like methanol and isopropanol, and molecules like CO2, H2O, H2. The device performance shows a detection limit of 100 ppm levels. This class of sensors is tailorable and opens up a completely new range of sensors. Nanocrystalline graphene is an interesting material for several sensing applications like strain sensing, moisture sensing, gas sensing, etc. In order to be investigated as strain sensor, thin films should be either grown or transferred on flexible substrates. This motivated the study of the low-temperature synthesis (600°C) process using a metal capping layer over a carbon source. Raman spectroscopy is used to characterize the grown films. The results indicate this technique promising for a low-temperature NCG synthesis. Next, thin-film transfer technique on flexible substrate is studied. The quality of transferred films on different substrates is confirmed by atomic force microscopy. Next, influence of temperature on conductivity of thin films of NCG is investigated. Piezoresistive property of nanocrystalline graphene is explored based on changes in sheet resistance of the film and Raman spectroscopy. Finally, a potential application is demonstrated where a top (ionic liquid) gate field effect configuration of NCG works as a moisture sensor.

description: The site of Erlitou is one of the most important sites for the study of the Bronze Age in central China (1800 BCE – 206 BCE). It was discovered by the well-known archaeologist Xu Xusheng in 1959, who led a team in search of the Xia capitals based on the later historical texts. Decades of excavations have yielded tremendously rich amounts of material remains, offering first-hand data for the analysis of the early development of technology, religion, social evolution, long-distance cultural communication and other key aspects of the Central Plains of China. It is often regarded as the beginning of the Bronze Age in central China, although bronze metallurgy was introduced via the Eurasia Steppe and performed in China in much earlier periods in the north and northwest. More importantly, it was Erlitou people who combined the newly arrived metallurgy with the long extant ceramic vessels and invented bronze ritual vessels, which distinguished China from all other parts of Eurasia and dominated the Chinese Bronze Age for nearly two thousand years. The abstract animal faces on these bronze ritual vessels, together with jades, dragon- shaped sceptres decorated with turquoise and other exotic objects or materials, indicates the presence of supernatural beings in the perception of the Erlitou people. Further indication comes from the large amount of human and animal sacrifices, sometimes neatly arranged in the ceremonial pits. There is also evidence oof divination, which used the cracks that resulted from firing the animal bones to predict the future, a tradition that was inherited from the late Neolithic periods and continued to the late Shang Anyang when oracle bones was widely discovered. Recent excavations reveal clear urban planning at Erlitou. The entire site (ca. 3 km2) had been divided into nine sections by two north-south roads and two east-west roads crossed with each other. Along the central north-south line, which becomes the one most important land marker in unban designing in later Chinese dynasties, lay the ritual/ceremonial section, palatial section and craft section. Various types of burials and rammed-earth mounds suggest large gatherings and that ritual or religious activities played a vital role in the social organization at Erlitou. Given the massive scale of organization and many pioneering achievements at Erlitou, there is no doubt that the ritual system played a critical part, within which a number of elements could be related to religion. Unfortunately, no sign of writing has yet been recovered, making it very challenging to distinguish ritual with religion or perform finer-grained research on various aspects of religion at Erlitou.

description: Arsenic (As), a well-known environmental contaminant, exists ubiquitously in air, soil and water. Millions of people are exposed to As through contaminated drinking water. Exposure to As during development has been associated with neurodegenerative changes with explicit functional deficits in later life. As induced oxidative stress has been reported as an important factor underlying As induced toxicity. The developing nervous system is especially vulnerable to oxidative stress due to its higher rate of O2 consumption and provision of  weak antioxidant machinery.
 Alpha Lipoic acid (ALA) and Curcumin have been reported to show remarkable antioxidant activity in the nervous system. Keeping in mind the magnitude of As induced toxicity and the potential of ALA and Curcumin as antioxidants, we evaluated the role of their supplementation on cerebellum of rats exposed to As.
 The behavioural tests pertaining to cerebellar function reflected adverse effects of iAs exposure. However, substantial recovery observed in antioxidant-supplemented groups suggests the potential of ALA and Curcumin in ameliorating iAs induced developmental neurotoxicity.

description: Objectives: Macroalgae are a rich source of vast array of bioactive molecules including toxins with wide pharmaceutical importance. This research aims to evaluate the anti-tumor properties of laurencia caspica extract isolated from Caspian Sea.

 Methods: Analysis of laurencia caspica crude extract was done by GC method. MTT assay was done to assess the cytotoxic effects of extract on T47D cell line of breast cancer. Flow cytometry analysis was done to examine the cell cycle. The expression of nm23 gene was also evaluated by RT-PCR. Also Antioxidant activity was measured according to total phenolic content.
 Results: The extract increased cytotoxicity against T47D cells in a time and dose dependent manner. MTT assay showed that the 800 mg/mL concentration of extract had the greatest inhibitory effect on cell growth.  The IC50 of the extract against cancer cells was 175 mg/mL and had less cytotoxic effect in normal cells. Induction of nm23 expression by extract was also significantly more in treated cancer cells than untreated cells. Flow cytometry findings indicated that apoptosis is the mechanism by which the laurencia caspica extract inhibits cell proliferation.

description: B cell Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (BCNHL) is the most frequent hematological malignancy. Several therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAb), like Rituximab were designed to target the B cell’s marker, CD20.
 Material and methods: Twenty BCNHL patients treated by Rituximab were followed for their OS balances in a longitudinal study (01/12/2014 to 01/12/2015). The OS and the total antioxidant defenses were assessed by plasma, red blood cells (RBC) membrane malondialdehyde (MDA) and plasma ORAC respectively.
 Results: We have found that the complete remission (CR) is significantly associated with high levels of RBC membrane MDA (m1=3683.57±682.16 vs. m2=2550.55±534.01 MFI -mean of fluorescence intensity-; p=0.012). The receiving operation curves had calculated an MDA threshold for the CR prediction (MDA>3102.25 MFI, Specificity=100%, sensitivity= 85.7% AUC=0.971; p=0.007).
 Discussion: This is a preliminary report for the OS-clinical outcomes association, performed in BCNHL patients. Our data concord with the results obtained previously using the cellular models, where the anti CD20 mAbs was found to induce a vicious circle by induction of free radicals production that lead to further expression of CD20 and further binding of anti-CD20 explaining its efficacy enhancement.
 Rituximab efficacy could be related to its capacity to induce cell death via free radicals generation.

description: Peroxid oxidation of lipids of membranes may cause release of different volatile compounds (VOCs) [1]. As a result of this, appearance of such VOCs in plasma, breath, saliva may act a biomarker of diseases in which the molecular aetiology increased ‘oxidative stress’ of cells. We commenced to study mechanisms of production of volatile metabolites using real-time quantification of released volatiles in defined in-vitro models of processes leading to damage of cell membranes.
  Volatile aldehydes produced during lipid peroxidation of cell membrane, are highly unstable. Selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) is a technique that allows rapid, precise quantification of volatile compounds [2-3]. Direct sampling of head space allows real-time quantification needed in order to understand fast running peroxidation processes. Electrochemistry can be used as a fast technique to generate reactive oxygen species and in combination with SIFT-MS it forms a powerful platform to study lipid peroxidation stress.
  Indirect electrochemical peroxidation has been applied to lung cancer cell and synthetic membrane in-vitro models and increased concentrations of C3-C7 aldehydes and malondialdehyde were observed in real-time. The results demonstrate that that peroxidative stress induced by electrochemical indirect peroxidation can be evaluated in head space using SIFT-MS.

The Buddhist Nuns of 4th - 6th century China
Creators: name: Lin, Kathy
Publisher: name: Database of Religious History (DRH)
Year: 2023

description: The earliest Buddhist nuns in China lived between the 4th and 6th centuries AD. We have record of their lives from Baochang’s compilation of their biographies in 516 AD. They were women who were more likely than not of elite literati familial origin. Many of them were centered around the great metropolitan cities of Chang’an and Luoyang in the North, and Jiankang in the south. The earliest nuns adopted Buddhist ideas and practices that had been slowly entering China along the Silk Routes from Central Asia and India. In the several hundred years prior to the 4th century, Buddhism was quite limited in China, practiced more or less by residents of foreign origin. These residents were treated as marginal within the larger cultural milieu. In particular, the Han dynasty ending in 220 AD had little use for Buddhist ideas and practices, as they were heavily invested in Confucian orthodoxies concerning family, institutions, and statecraft. The conquest of the northern capital cities of Luoyang and Chang’an in 311 and 316 AD by a united nomadic Xiongnu alliance meant an end to Han Chinese governance in the north. Gentry who survived the massacres and book-burnings in the capital cities fled to Jiankang in the south, in present-day Nanjing, where they set up a new seat of government. This massive societal crisis threw the assured Confucian orthodoxies into disarray. In the vacuum of political theory, intellectuals held salons or qingtans to discuss speculative new forms of political and natural philosophy. This is the setting for the broader uptake and flowering of Buddhist ideas and practices, which often took the form of Buddho-Daoist syntheses. The earliest Buddhist nuns were living in this context. In response to the social turmoil of the times, these women bucked Confucian ideas of the exemplary woman as primarily devoted to the institutions of family and, in connection with the apparatus of state, the familial-dynasty. Importantly, the institution of the family should not be seen here as a “private” arena, as it is organized in modern secular societies with a distinction between private and public. In the 4-6th centuries, the family as an institution was the primary building block of political economy. Noble houses interfaced with each other and also with an imperial apparatus of state in alliances involving power, prestige, and territorial control (ie. economic output). The family sent sons into the imperial officialdom; daughters participated in various political alliances between houses. This is the setting in which we can see how radical the Buddhist nuns were. They were trail-blazers innovating new practices that took care of people who fell into the interstitial spaces between the various norms, practices, and institutions of family and familial dynasty. These innovations played an important part in shifting the entire social system, introducing the institution of the sangha in addition to, and in relation with, the institutions of state and family.
