Kuna, also known as “Tule”, “Cuna”
Creators: name: Droe, Anj

description: The Kuna, whose name for themselves is “Tule,” are an indigenous Central American group living along the northern coast of Panama. Originally from the Gulf of Urabá in present-day Colombia, the Kuna fled Spanish occupation in the 17th century and settled in what is now the Darién Province of Panama, eventually relocating to their current location on the San Blas Islands and northern coast. Through a combination of strategic alliances, negotiation, and rebellion, the Kuna have managed to maintain much of their cultural and political identity in the face of colonial pressure to assimilate. This entry focuses on ethnographic evidence collected during fieldwork with the Kuna shortly after 1925, when La Revolución Tule (the Kuna Revolution), in response to assimilation pressure, won the Kuna semi-autonomous status for their land. During this time, traditional Kuna religion was still practiced, although syncretism with Christianity, and in particular Protestantism, was present. Living a righteous life, so as to avoid angering the supreme high god Pab Dummat, was of central importance in Kuna religion. The righteous were rewarded in the afterlife and wrongdoers were punished. Considerable political and religious overlap appears to have been present both in community leaders and in ceremonies. For example, large religious singing or chanting ceremonies took place in the same community meeting houses used for political purposes. Because religious beliefs were inseparable from almost all aspects of social and political life, this entry considers the religious group to be coterminous with the society at large.

description: The Tehuelche are an indigenous group residing primarily in Patagonia, Argentina and southern Chile. This entry focuses on ethnographic evidence collected during fieldwork with the Tehuelche from 1869-1870, at which time various types of contact between the Tehuelche and the Spanish, including missions and trade relations, had existed for over 300 years (Adem, 2009:1). In 1870, despite centuries of contact with the Spanish, the Tehuelche had maintained their traditional religious beliefs and practices. The Tehuelche believed in both a high god, who had little to do with human affairs, and troublemaking supernatural beings that are also referred to as devils. Religious specialists, who had powers that gave them the ability to treat illnesses, predict the future, and prevent harassment by the devils, played an important role in everyday life. For the Tehuelche, religious beliefs were inseparable from almost all aspects of social and political life. Therefore, this entry considers the religious group to be coterminous with the society at large.
Earth Game and The Enheduanna Model: A Data Backed Method for Producing Prosocial Effects through Narrative

description: Narrative forms our metacognitive self and the experiential reality we live in. This has had dangerous effects in a post-truth and media ubiquitous world via the Fariello-Morton Hyperobject, the effects of which span everything from environmental damage to socio-political polarization and discrimination. In recent years, the study of narrative has become more quantified as psycho-narratology. The story Earth Game explores the issues of the Fariello-Morton Hyperobject by reimagining the real world as a fantasy game which characters of a magickal pseudomodern world called H’Reith play and use as a metaphor for their personal and societal issues. Weird and fantastic fiction and its fandoms have always allowed unique means to explore reality. Earth Game also serves as the source of proxy texts for new respondent data collections, which, when combined with principles from psycho- narrative literature yield actionable steps known as the Enheduanna Model. The Enheduanna Model considers how narrative elements work within us and functions as a teachable method usable by nearly any content creator to author persuasive content that is statistically likely to serve as a successful and intentional prosocial intervention in fandoms and other seed populations to combat Fariello-Morton Hyperobject effects. This publication includes the model, the experimental literature piece, the successful doctoral thesis, and a zip file of the secondary addenda and the full SPSS data files made available here for other researchers as a secondary data set.

description: L-cysteine is a rate-limiting precursor for the synthesis of glutathione that function in scavenges free radicals. The present study was carried out to investigate the protective effect of L-cysteine against the cytotoxicity of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) in rat intestinal epithelial cell line to discover novel mechanisms for L-cysteine resisting oxidative stress. Cell death, expression of NRF2 protein in nucleus and mRNA levels of NQO1 and KLF9 were analyzed. Cell death induced by 4-HNE (80 μM) was inhibited by 2h L-cysteine pretreatment in dose dependent manner from 1.25 mM to 5 mM. Increased accumulation of NRF2 in nucleus and up-regulation of NQO1 mRNA were observed in cells exposed to 4-HNE after pre-incubation with L-cysteine. 4-HNE promoted the abundance of KLF9 mRNA, which was blocked by L-cysteine. AtRA (1 μM), an inhibitor for the binding of NRF2 and ARE, impeded the protective role of L-cysteine in 4-HNE-induced cell death. The NQO1 mRNA level stimulated by L-cysteine in cells exposed to 4-HNE was reduced by AtRA. Moreover, AtRA resulted in a considerably up-regulation of KLF9 mRNA. Our results revealed that the antioxidant activity of L-cysteine is related to the activated expression of NQO-1 and the suppression of KLF9 controlled by NRF2-ARE signaling.

description: The chorionic villi (CV) develops in a low-oxygen environment over the first trimester due to obstruction of the uterine arteries. Between 10-12 gestational weeks (GW), trophoblastic plugs disappear: the resulting increase in O2 levels potentially induces changes in the cellular redox status (Jauniaux et al. 2000), thus modifying the normal development of the placenta.

We characterized the redox status of human trophoblasts during the first trimester of pregnancy. First trimester trophoblasts (7-9 and 12-14 GW respectively) were collected (Paris Cochin ethic committee, n°18-05). Villous cytotrophoblasts (VCT) were isolated for primary culture, and villi explants were collected. We observed a significant increase in the gene (p<0.05), protein expression (p<0.01) and enzymatic activity (p<0.05) of catalase in the CV (n=5) and in the VCT (n=4) at 12-14 GW. Similar results were found for SOD1 that was preferentially located in VCT (immunochemistry). We also found a significant increase in gene expression (VCT: n=4; p<0.001) and enzymatic activity (VCT: n=4; CV: n=5; p<0.001) of GPX1. Our data also showed activation of NADPH oxidase. Additionally, gene expression of the redox sensitive pathways (NF-kB/c-Jun/Nrf2/P53/Bcl2) appeared unchanged. All these data showed a significant modulation of the redox status in human trophoblast during the early stage of pregnancy.

description: Preeclampsia is a complication of human pregnancy characterized by a gestational hypertension associated with proteinuria occurring from mid-gestation. Worldwide, this syndrome affects around 5% of pregnant women, and is a leading cause of maternal mortality. Placental hypoxia and oxidative stress are well-described features of preeclampsia, but up to now, it has not been determined whether oxidative stress is a cause or a consequence of the disease.
 Storkhead box 1 (STOX1) is a winged-helix transcription factor implicated in the genetic forms of preeclampsia. STOX1 overexpression confers preeclampsia-like gene-expression to trophoblastic cell lines and preeclampsia symptoms to pregnant mice. STOX1 overexpression is also associated with altered mitochondrial mass, hyperactive mitochondria, increased free radical production and nitrosative stress both in vitro and in vivo.
 To assess the molecular role of STOX1 in the oxidative stress production machinery, we measured O2•−, NO, H2O2 and GSH production in different anti- and pro-oxidant drugs conditions. We observed that STOX1-related nitrosative status is mainly due to a significant increase of free radicals production that comes from the mitochondria.
 Our work posits STOX1 as a regulator of nitrosative and oxidative stress metabolism which may contribute to elevated blood pressure in preeclampsia.

description: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease, characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against beta2-Glycoprotein I, a phospholipd membrane binding anticoagulant protein. APS patients also display pro-inflammatory perturbation of the vascular endothelium and increased levels of plasma ROS and von Willebrand Factor (vWF), a large protein released as ultralarge-vWF polymers (UL-vWF, up to 20 millions Da) from vascular endothelial cells and responsible for platelets recruitment and activation in primary haemostasis. The pro-haemostatic potential of vWF increases with its length, which in turn is regulated by ADAMTS-13, a zinc-protease that cleaves vWF at the single peptide bond Tyr1605–Met1606. In a previous work, we demonstrated that oxidation of Met1606 in vWF from normal individuals impairs cleavage by ADAMTS-13, thus leading to the accumulation of pro-haemostatic UL-vWF polymers [1].
 In this work, we purified microgram amounts of vWF from the plasma of APS patients and, using Targeted Mass Spectrometry techniques, demonstrated that Met1606 is oxidised to methionine sulfoxide by approximately 40%, thus making vWF more resistant to ADAMTS-13 clevage. In conclusion, oxidation of Met1606 in vWF can be taken a functional biomarker positively linking high oxidative stress and increased risk of thrombosis in APS.

description: Objective: Flavonoids are antioxidants present in grapes, tea, fruits, vegetables, cocoa and wines. Previous studies shows that red wine and cocoa can help to prevent cardiovascular diseases and cancer (1,2).The aim of this study is to compare the total amount of Flavonoids in receito red wine and commercially available pills of cocoa.
Methodology: Methanolic extracts of total phenolic compounds from four years old recioto red wine (Masi Agricola) and cocoa pills powder (Mars) were analysed by using both HPLC-DAD and HPLC ESI-MS(3).
Results:Twenty-three different phenolic compounds were detected and identified in recioto, while in cocoa eighteen different phenolic compounds, mainly derived from catechin and epicatechin, were found. In quantitative analysis (HPLC-DAD) of cocoa, 250±1mg of flavanols were found in 12500mg of one pill; however, 90±1mg of flavanols detected in1litre of recioto red wine.
Conclusion: The amount of flavonoids found in commercially available pills of cocoa were three times more than those found in recioto red wine.

description: In this study,essential oil and extracts of two Algerian plants, Atriplex halimus and Centaurium erythraea were examined for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.
 Essential oils are extracted by hydrodistillation and the extracts were prepared by maceration in differèent solvents. The deodorized water extract is the residual aqueous phase of the hydrodistillation. The extracts and essential oils are then subjected to qualitative and/or quantitative phytochemical analysis for the identification of their chemical compositions.
 Antioxidant potential was evaluated using following in vitro methods: FRAP  assay, and scavenging of  DPPH radical.
 Antimicrobial activity against five microbial species was determined by an agar diffusion method. Then, the MIC and MBC/MFC of active extracts   are determined by the microdilution method.
  Phytochemical analysis of the extracts showed the presence of several classes of secondary metabolites.
 Through the two tests to evaluate the antiradical activity, we found that our extracts and essential oils exhibit antioxidant activity. The results of antimicrobial activity showed the effectiveness of essential oils and some extract against some microbial species tested.
 Due to their antioxidant and antibacterial properties, these plant extracts may be used as natural preservative ingredients in food and pharmaceutical industries.

description: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of creatine treatment on modulating left ventricle weight and oxidative damage after 5 and 10 days of Walker-256 tumor implantation, in Wistar rats. The animals were divided into 6 groups: control (C), tumor-bearing (T – 8,0 x 107 cells in 0.3 mL PBS, i.m., on the right flank) and tumor-bearing treated with creatine (tumor implantation + creatine in drinking water – 8 g/L) for 5 and 10 days. The left ventricle weight increased 20% and 31% at 5th and 10th days respectively in T group when compared with C. TC group remained at the C level. Lipid peroxidation levels evaluated by chemiluminescence (CL), demonstrated to be increased in T groups and was not prevented by creatine treatment. Carbonylated proteins increased in both 5th and 10th day in T groups that was reversed by creatine treatment. In line of this, T group also showed decreased levels of advanced oxidized protein products in  both time-points. Creatine also reversed this decrease (TC group compared with T group). We concluded that creatine treatment prevent left ventricle hypertrophy in tumor-bearing rats by atenuating oxidative protein damage.

description: Attraverso una ricerca multidisciplinare, basata sull’esame comparativo fra la documentazione archeologica, le fonti classiche e le tradizioni popolari, si propone un’ipotesi relativa alla religiosità nuragica in Sardegna, a partire dall’esame del culto dei morti e delle tipologie funerarie. La successiva analisi di fonti greche e latine relative ad alcune figure mitiche collegate all’isola permette alcune considerazioni sul culto eroico nella tarda età del Bronzo, con il supporto della documentazione archeologica. L’analisi congiunta dei dati presentati porta, infine, a ricostruire per la civiltà nuragica una religione complessa, di tipo fertilistico - naturalistico, nella quale ha un ruolo di spicco la divinità femminile mediterranea.

title: The BRECVEMA model of musical emotions and theories of embodied cognition: a practice-based approach including an Experimental Music Theatre Composition Portfolio
Creators: name: Jan, Oli Chun-Yang
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2024

description: This thesis follows the framework of the BRECVEMA model proposed by Juslin (2008, 2010, 2019) in investigating the emotive effects and embodied aspects of music perception. It is structured according to the categories proposed in the model. Thus, each chapter or section will discuss a mechanism in the framework. 

I attempt to do develop the discussion in three approaches: the theoretical, the analytical, and the practical. The theoretical approach will review relevant literature in fields of study such as aesthetics, phenomenology, linguistics, cognitive science, neuroscience, and biology. The analytical approach will look at existing EMT (experimental music theatre) pieces and explore how the mechanisms work in these pieces. The practical approach will, at the end of each chapter or section on the mechanisms, discuss my own composition of EMT pieces that are composed on the basis of the mechanisms and relevant theories. In doing so, I seek to present a practicebased research methodology that can have contribution to the topic by demonstrating a mutually beneficial relation between theory and practice, where the former provides bases for the latter, and the latter produce examples of extended interpretation, concrete implementation, and complex interaction for the former.

description: Ethical concerns about software applications, e.g., worries about privacy breaches, user manipulation, and discrimination, have gained prominence recently. Research shows that users voice these concerns in app reviews and that they can be detected using machine learning and deep learning techniques. These techniques usually operate as black-boxes, making it difficult to understand the context of users' ethical concerns. We address this issue by presenting a transparent approach that uses pattern mining and graph theory to yield additional context to the ethical concern classifications made by machine learning algorithms. We compare a simple frequent pattern mining and a high-utility mining algorithm and assess the resulting rules through commonly used metrics. Finally, we visualize and interpret preliminary results in an interactive graph. We mined 3,101 reviews of ten popular apps mentioning diverse ethical concerns and present the results for two apps in detail. Our results show that pattern mining algorithms and graph visualizations are promising directions for detecting contextual information of ethical concerns about software. This work is a step toward ensuring that ethical concerns are methodically thought through and integrated into the software development life cycle.

description: We performed a multi-ethnic Epigenome Wide Association study on 22,774 individuals to describe the DNA methylation signature of chronic low-grade inflammation as measured by C-Reactive protein (CRP). We find 1,511 independent differentially methylated loci associated with CRP. These CpG sites show correlation structures across chromosomes, and are primarily situated in euchromatin, depleted in CpG islands. These genomic loci are predominantly situated in transcription factor binding sites and genomic enhancer regions. Mendelian randomization analysis suggests altered CpG methylation is a consequence of increased blood CRP levels. Mediation analysis reveals obesity and smoking as important underlying driving factors for changed CpG methylation. Finally, we find that an activated CpG signature significantly increases the risk for cardiometabolic diseases and COPD.

description: Multilevel teaching, a dynamic pedagogical approach distinct from traditional methods, redefines and enhances the educational process by incorporating diverse content, organizational structures, and teaching techniques, all aligned with curriculum requirements. Traditional physical education programs at universities often follow fixed curricula and procedural norms, fostering an incremental and uninspiring learning environment. The rigidity of this approach dampens students' enthusiasm for physical activities, compromising the overall teaching quality. To address these challenges, the integration of information technology into university physical education classes emerges as a promising solution. This article explores the development of multilevel teaching models for university-level physical education, enhanced by information technology. By capitalizing on the benefits of information technology, this research not only revitalizes physical education instruction but also fuels students' engagement and holistic well-being, ultimately enhancing the quality of physical education in higher education.

title: Building the evidence for the impact of pharmacists in general practice: a multi-method, realistic study

description: Background: There has recently been a drive to integrate pharmacists into UK general practices to tackle workload pressures and enhance patient access to healthcare. Although not a new role, it is the first time that pharmacist presence in general practice is being formally funded and tested. Therefore, little is known about how pharmacists in general practices impact the wider healthcare system. Aim: To build evidence on the impact of pharmacists in general practice, via in-depth elicitation of stakeholder experiences. Methods: A multi-method, ‘realistic’ approach was followed, including qualitative focus groups with general practice-based staff to identify impact measurement problems for pharmacists in general practice; an e-Delphi study to reach consensus, amongst experts, on what pharmacist activities are important to record as part of impact identification; and qualitative interviews with community pharmacy teams and patients to explore their experiences of general practice-based pharmacists. Focus groups and interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Qualitative data was analysed thematically and quantitative data via descriptive statistics. Results: Pharmacists carry out various valuable services in general practice, however, the majority of existing national measures are not fit for purpose in targeting pharmacist work and capturing the whole spectrum and quality of services. There was agreement on recording primarily funding-related activities, which included medication reviews, high-risk drug monitoring and medicines reconciliations. Pharmacy colleagues in general practices and community pharmacies are willing to develop mutual relationships, which could result in stronger links between the two settings and streamlined workloads. Patients are satisfied with easy access to a pharmacist in general practice who is able to interact with them at a high standard. Lack of awareness, however, limits uptake of pharmacist-led services. Conclusions: General practice-based pharmacists could better link different healthcare teams and enhance accessibility to, and quality of, primary care services. Ways to effectively capture pharmacist impact are still needed. Findings will inform policy attempting to frame pharmacist services in general practice as per needs and expectations of stakeholders.

description: The toxicity of ionizing radiation in diverse cell-types is associated with a high susceptibility to proteome oxidation, but not in extremely resistant bacteria such as Deinococcus radiodurans (DR). Mn2+-peptide antioxidant complexes accumulated in DR specifically protect proteins from reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by radiation, preserving enzymatic functions needed to recover from genome damage. We previously reported that protein-free cell extracts of DR protected enzymes and human lymphoblastoid Jurkat T cells from extreme cellular insults caused by γ-rays. Here we show that the levels of radioprotection conferred on Jurkat cells by DR-based rationally-designed peptides far exceed the levels bestowed by D. radiodurans ultrafiltrate. The relative radioprotective efficacy of the peptides on the viability of irradiated Jurkat cells was determined by flow cytometry using SYTOX Blue dye that readily penetrates cells with compromised plasma membranes. The addition of 3 mM DEHGTAVMLK (DP1) as a radioprotector to RPMI medium pre- or post-irradiation increased the viability of Jurkat cells exposed to 100 Gy from ~20% to ~80-90%. The radioprotective efficacy of other designed peptides will be reported. Deinococcus Mn2+ antioxidant complexes could expand pre-exposure prophylactic countermeasures and post-exposure therapeutics in cancer radiotherapy and in radiation emergencies.

description: Arsenic (As) is a metalloid recognized as a health problem when it is in the drinking water. At high doses As damages several organs, but it has not been studied the effect of chronic exposure of low levels of As in dopaminergic brain areas important for locomotor activity. This project was aimed to evaluate the pro-oxidant action of As (0.05, 0.5 and 50 mg of NaAsO2/L) given for 6 months in the drinking water in male and female C57BL/6 mice. The pro-oxidant role of As was evaluated in the striatum, accumben nucleus and midbrain by quantifying conjugated dienes and TBARs. As treatment did not modify the ambulatory activity of the mice, but it increased the errors in the equilibrium bar. It was also observed a significant elevation of conjugated dienes in the accumbens nucleus and midbrain of male mice, and in the accumbens nucleus of the female mice. Interestingly, any change was detected in the TBARs assay in the 3 brain areas neither in both genders. Data indicate that chronic As disturbs the pro-oxidant regulation of dopaminergic brain areas without causing major structural alterations, but affecting finely-tuned motor skills.

description: Objectives. To evaluate the gene expression of Manganese-Superoxide Dismutasa (Mn-SOD) and Glutathione Peroxidase (GPX) in obese participants after a dietary intervention with high content of fiber. Methodology. The study included Mexican participants selected from the Clinic of Nutrition of Health Department of the Universidad Iberoamericana from Mexico City. The study included 21 participants with IMC>30. Clinical, anthropometric and biochemical variables were evaluated in them and received a dietary intervention with daily consumption of “nopal” (Opuntia Ficus Indica) as source of fiber (3% of their energetic requirement) by 30 days (1). ARN was isolated from peripheral leukocytes by Direct-zol RNA MiniPrep. Analysis of relative gene expression of both enzymes was done by Real-Time Quantitative PCR by 2-∆∆CT method by specific TaqMan probes. Results. After the intervention the change in gene expression in participants for Mn-SOD was =19.7 +/-10. For GPX was =25 +/-17. Likewise the peripheral concentration of glucose, triglycerides, total-Cholesterol, LDL-Cholesterol and TBARS (Thiobarbituric-Acid-Reactive-Substances) decrease significantly (p<0.05). Conclusions. All the participants showed an increase in the gene expression of SOD and GPX after the consumption of “nopal” by 30 days as source of fiber.

description: Nipah virus (NiV) is a deadly agent of the family Paramyxoviridae that can cause in humans a severe pneumonia, resulting in acute lung injury and inflammation of the small airways. Interestingly, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced by airway epithelial cells in response to other paramyxovirus infection contribute to the pathogenesis of lung inflammation by inducing pro-inflammatory gene expression and oxidative stress. However, the cellular mechanisms involved in NiV-induced lung inflammation remain unclear.

Here, we investigated whether NiV-infected human airway epithelial cells undergo oxidative stress and its role in inflammation modulation. The Nrf2-mediated oxidative stress pathway was significantly affected during infection. Oxidative stress was confirmed in infected cells using the isoprostane marker and by monitoring the GSH/GSSG ratio, which correlated with reduction of antioxidant enzyme expression. Interestingly, treatment of infected cells with antioxidants resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of isoprostane and the pro-inflammatory response. BHA also lowered virus replication.

These results suggest that oxidative stress in NiV-infected respiratory epithelium is caused by inefficient ROS decomposition, due to insufficiency of antioxidant enzymes, and modulate inflammation. Oxidative stress was further confirmed in NiV-infected human lung xenografts demonstrating the relevance of such phenomenon in vivo. Managing ROS levels might be part of the treatment.

description: Hydroxyproline has been proposed as a proline derivative with potential antioxidant activity and is found to be abundant in sow’s milk. To realize the optimal growth of neonatal animals, it is essential to maintain the redox homeostasis in intestinal epithelium. Accumulated 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) from lipid peroxidation is recognized as a stimulus that triggers oxidative stress causing intestinal mucosa damage. Here, we evaluated the effect of hydroxyproline on IPEC-1 cells (an intestinal epithelial cell line from neonatal pig) exposed to 4-HNE. Cells were pre-incubated with various concentrations (0.2, 0.5, 1, 2 and 5 mM) of hydroxyproline for 12 h and then were exposed to 4-HNE (40 μM) for an additional 6 h. Cell viability, DNA damage, cell apoptosis and ROS generation were determined. The results showed that 4-HNE-induced cell viability reduction, DNA damage, ROS production and cell apoptosis were alleviated by hydroxyproline. The activation of caspase-3, PARP-1 and MAPK family protein (ERK, JNK and p38) in cells exposed to 4-HNE was suppressed by hydroxyproline in a concentration-dependent manner. Our results demonstrated that hydroxyproline contributes to antioxidant defense in IPEC-1 cells. We speculate hydroxyproline should be considered as a nutritional molecular that prevents intestinal mucosa damage-mediated by free radicals.
