description: In December, 2006, a group of 26 software developers from some of the most widely used life science programming toolkits and phylogenetic software projects converged on Durham, North Carolina, for a Phyloinformatics Hackathon, an intense five-day collaborative software coding event sponsored by the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent). The goal was to help researchers to integrate multiple phylogenetic software tools into automated workflows. Participants addressed deficiencies in interoperability between programs by implementing “glue code” and improving support for phylogenetic data exchange standards (particularly NEXUS) across the toolkits. The work was guided by use-cases compiled in advance by both developers and users, and the code was documented as it was developed. The resulting software is freely available for both users and developers through incorporation into the distributions of several widely-used open-source toolkits. We explain the motivation for the hackathon, how it was organized, and discuss some of the outcomes and lessons learned. We conclude that hackathons are an effective mode of solving problems in software interoperability and usability, and are underutilized in scientific software development.

description: β-propeller domains composed of WD repeats are highly ubiquitous and typically used as multi-site docking platforms to coordinate and integrate the activities of groups of proteins. Here, we have used extensive homology modelling of the WD40-repeat family of seven-bladed β-propellers coupled with subsequent structural classification and clustering of these models to define subfamilies of β-propellers with common structural, and probable, functional characteristics. We show that it is possible to assign seven-bladed WD β-propeller proteins into functionally different groups based on the information gained from homology modelling. We examine general structural diversity within the WD40-repeat family of seven-bladed β-propellers and demonstrate that seven-bladed β-propellers composed of WD-repeats are structurally distinct from other seven-bladed β-propellers. We further provide some insights into the multifunctional diversity of the seven-bladed WD β-propeller surfaces. This report once again reinforces the importance of structural data and the usefulness of homology models in functional classification.

description: Tumor necrosis factor receptor-related 2 (TR2, HVEM or TNFRSF-14) plays an important role in immune responses, however, the mechanisms regulating its expression are unclear. To understand the control of TR2 gene expression, we studied the upstream region of the gene. Gel supershift assays revealed inducible binding of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) to a putative NFAT site within the TR2 promoter. Furthermore, cotransfection of a dominant negative NFAT construct, or siRNA for NFAT, resulted in increased expression of a TR2 reporter gene. Our findings demonstrate that NFAT negatively regulates TR2 expression in activated T cells.

description: The representation theory of 0-Hecke-Clifford algebras as a degenerate case is not semisimple and also with rich combinatorial meaning. Bergeron et al. have proved that the Grothendieck ring of the category of finitely generated supermodules of 0-Hecke-Clifford algebras is isomorphic to the algebra of peak quasisymmetric functions defined by Stembridge. In this paper we further study the category of finitely generated projective supermodules and clarify the correspondence between it and the peak algebra of symmetric groups. In particular, two kinds of restriction rules for induced projective supermodules are obtained. After that, we consider the corresponding Heisenberg double and its Fock representation to prove that the ring of peak quasisymmetric functions is free over the subring of symmetric functions spanned by Schur's Q-functions.

description: Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) plays a key role in initiating inflammation in the cardiopulmonary and systemic contexts. Pathological auto-proteolysed two-chain (tc) HNE exhibits reduced binding affinity with inhibitors. Using AutoDock Vina v1.2.0, 66 flavonoid inhibitors, sivelestat and alvelestat were docked with single-chain (sc) HNE and tcHNE. Schrodinger PHASE v13.4.132 was used to generate a 3D-QSAR model. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were conducted with AMBER v18. The 3D-QSAR model for flavonoids with scHNE showed r2 = 0.95 and q2 = 0.91. High-activity compounds had hydrophobic A/A2 and C/C2 rings in the S1 subsite, with hydrogen bond donors at C5 and C7 positions of the A/A2 ring, and the C4’ position of the B/B1 ring. All flavonoids except robustaflavone occupied the S1’-S2’ subsites of tcHNE with decreased AutoDock binding affinities. During MD simulations, robustaflavone remained highly stable with both HNE forms. Principal Component Analysis suggested that robustaflavone binding induced structural stability in both HNE forms. Cluster analysis and free energy landscape plots showed that robustaflavone remained within the sc and tcHNE binding site throughout the 100 ns MD simulation. The robustaflavone scaffold likely inhibits both tcHNE and scHNE. It is potentially superior to sivelestat and alvelestat and can aid in developing therapeutics targeting both forms of HNE.

description: Specialised pedagogical lexicography: a work in progress While it is true that users reach for a dictionary to learn (about) something, and, therefore, all dictionaries are of educational value, pedagogical dictionaries in the narrow sense play a special role: they are supposed to be reference works for a variety of didactic needs of teachers and learners. Specialised pedagogical dictionaries, on their part, hold a special position among terminographic works, in particular on account of their primary function of educating the users so that they could engage in an uninterrupted professional communication, acquire new knowledge and/or ensure flow of non-distorted specialised information. However, the quality of existing works is still low, one reason being the lack of consistent theory of pedagogical terminography. In this paper an attempt is made to summarise the most important variables that need to be considered in pedagogically-oriented specialised dictionary-making. These variables include: user profile, user situation, user needs and user dictionary situation considered from the perspective of the most saliet dictionary parameters, that is the frequency, the cognitive aspect, the paradigmatic context and the pragmatic framework. Based on the considerations presented in the paper, the author lists a set of dictionary structure elements that could be used to construct an optimum specialised pedagogical dictionary.

description: We demonstrate the trapping of cold $^{87}Rb$ atoms in a toroidal geometry using a radio frequency (rf) dressed quadrupole magnetic trap formed by superposing a strong rf-field on a quadrupole trap. This rf-dressed quadrupole trap has the minimum potential away from the quadrupole trap centre on a circular path which facilitates trapping in toroidal geometry. In these experiments, the laser cooled atoms were first trapped in a quadrupole trap, then cooled evaporatively using a weak rf-field, and finally trapped in an rf-dressed quadrupole trap. The radius of the toroid could be varied by varying the frequency of the dressing rf-field. It has also been demonstrated that a single rf source and an antenna can be used for the rf-evaporative cooling as well as for the rf-dressing of atoms. The atoms trapped in the toroidal trap may have applications in the realization of an atom gyroscope as well as in studying the quantum gases in low dimensions.

description: Imperative forms in Radziwiłł Chronicle Imperative forms found in the fifteenth-century Radziwiłł Chronicle were presented in the following article. As a result of analysis, it was discovered that a clear system of creating imperatives operates in the relic. Depending on the person and number, imperative is created by particles да and ать or a suffix. Some peculiarities related to the conjugation of individual verbs were also observed in the Chronicle. In some forms of the 2nd person singular, suffix –и disappeared. It may indicate the influence of living language. Particular attention was drawn to forms буд and ход. In addition, the presence of variants concerning conjugation of дати was noted and also of other verbs formed from дати by means of prefixing. The presence of variants was connected with the influence of conjugation of the verb даяти. It was also noted that in the relic the non-productive suffix -ѣ- began to be displaced mainly by the productive suffix –и-.

„Wir Slawen sind schrecklich sensibel...“ Fremd- und Eigenbilder in der Prosa Radek Knapps

description: „We, the Slaves, are terribly sensitive...” The creation of external and self-images in Radek Knapp’s prose works The influence of the foreign-born writers on the German-speaking literature is nowadays undisputed. In contrast to the so-called ‘migration literature’ (although the most authors fight against categorizing their literary works as ‘migration literature’, finding the term demeaning and ghettoized) in Germany, the writers of non-German mother tongue or non-Germanspeaking background in Austria have not received much academic attention so far. Radek Knapp (born in 1964 in Poland) belongs to the most distinctive Austrian authors, whose texts are mostly interpreted in the context of migration. He moved from Warsaw to Vienna in the age of 12 and defined himself to be expressed in German therefore dedicating his literary career mostly to German-speaking readers, although simultaneously taking his unique position between two cultures. For more than two decades his novels constantly gain popularity among the reading public. It is due to his protagonists who usually represent a group of cross-border commuters whose perceptively observations and satirical comments of Austrian as well as Polish reality make (otherwise familiar) surroundings appear unfamiliar or even exotic. The aim of the study is to investigate the creation of external and self-images in two most popular prose works of Radek Knapp: his literary debut from 1994 – the short story collection titled Franio and the novel Herrn Kukas Empfehlungen (Mr. Kuka’s Recommendations), published in 1999. Of particular interest is the confrontation of East and West, which defines the basic structure of Knapp’s works, including the use of stereotypes.

description: Increased responsiveness of vascular cells to the growth factor IGF-I has been implicated in complications associated with diabetes. Here we describe the development of an assay and screening of a library of compounds for their ability to accelerate cleavage of the transmembrane protein integrin-associated protein (IAP) thereby disrupting the association between IAP and SHPS-1 which we have shown as critical for the enhanced response of vascular cells to IGF-I. The cell-based ELISA utilizes an antibody that specifically detects cleaved, but not intact, IAP. Of the 1040 compounds tested, 14 were considered active by virtue of their ability to stimulate an increase in antibody-binding indicative of IAP cleavage. In experiments with smooth muscle and retinal endothelial cell cultures in hyperglycemic conditions, each active compound was shown to accelerate the cleavage of IAP, and this was associated with a decrease in IAP association with SHPS-1 as determined by coimmunoprecipitation of the proteins from cell lysates. As a consequence of the acceleration in IAP cleavage, the compounds were shown to inhibit IGF-I-stimulated phosphorylation of key signaling molecules including Shc and ERK1/2, and this in turn was associated with a decrease in IGF-I-stimulated cell proliferation. Identification of these compounds that utilize this mechanism has the potential to yield novel therapeutic approaches for the prevention and treatment of vascular complications associated with diabetes.

description: The experience of migration – Literatur als Heimat by Paulina Schulz from intercultural perspective In this article I have been dealing with the essay by Paulina Schulz Literatur als Heimat (Literature as motherland), in which the author describes her migrational experience. In my article I have used a few crucial/key categories of intercultural German philology. These are the following ones: liminality, alienation and hybridity. They seem to be incredibly useful for describing the author’s experience. First of all I have been trying to answer the questions of how this state of liminality and connected with it ‘being inbetween’ were described by the author during her different phases of living in Germany, how she tried to cope with the feeling of alienation and exclusion and what strategies she used in order to overcome these problems.

Anonymity and Jewishness as forms of alienation: Israel Rabon’s The Street
Creators: name: Gasztold, Brygida
Publisher: name: Polilog. Studia Neofilologiczne
Year: 2016

description: Anonymity and Jewishness as Forms of Alienation: Israel Rabon’s The Street The article discusses Israel Rabon’s novel The Street (1985), which was originally published in Yiddish in 1928. The novel is set in post-World War I Łódź, Poland and narrates a series of events, whose central figure is an anonymous narrator – a discharged war veteran who aimlessly drifts through life. The textual absence of personal information situates the narrator in a communal void, which parallels his alienation not only from the society, but from the world at large. The heart of the narrator’s account is the blight of post-war society, which is corrupted by the trauma of war. Rabon’s protagonist is representative of the fate of many Polish people who tried to restore their lives in the struggling Polish economy, which was destroyed by the war. The experience of war is presented as responsible for shattering their dreams and thwarting their prospects of a comfortable life. The discordance between the protagonist’s far-fetched expectations and the grim post-war reality highlights his sense of alienation, not only from the world around, but also from his inner self. Jewishness is another factor which provides a form of detachment, and which informs the protagonist’s position against the social fabric of the post-war Polish society. He is presented as an assimilated Jew whose religiosity has largely been eroded. No longer part of ancestral culture, nor fully accepted by Polish society, he is shown as suffering from double alienation. The Street is not an ethnicspecific depiction of the East-European Jewish community, but a general story about the post-war world as characterized by the pervading sense of alienation.

description: Smooth muscle cells (SMC) maintained in high glucose are more responsive to IGF-I than those in normal glucose. There is significantly more thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) in extracellular matrix surrounding SMC grown in 25 mM glucose. In this study we investigated 1) the mechanism by which glucose regulates TSP-1 levels and 2) the mechanism by which TS-1 enhances IGF-I signaling. The addition of TSP-1 to primary SMC was sufficient to enhance IGF-I responsiveness in normal glucose. Reducing TSP-1 protein levels inhibited IGF-I signaling in SMC maintained in high glucose. We determined that TSP-1 protected IAP/CD47 from cleavage and thereby facilitated its association with SHP substrate-1 (SHPS-1). We have shown previously that the hyperglycemia induced protection of IAP from cleavage is an important component of the ability of hyperglycemia to enhance IGF-I signaling. Furthermore we determined that TSP-1 also enhanced phosphorylation of the 3 subunit of the V3 integrin, another molecular event that we have shown are critical for SMC response to IGF-I in high glucose. Our studies also revealed that the difference in the amount of TSP-1 in the two different glucose conditions was due, at least in part, to a difference in the cellular uptake and degradation of TSP-1.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine whether levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in childhood are related to insulin resistance in adolescence. Further, to explore how fatness and cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) moderate this relationship. Methods. 292 nine-year-old children (n=292) were followed for 4 years. Anthropometrics and VO2peak were measured. Fasting blood samples were analyzed for IL-6, insulin, and glucose. Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) was used as a measure of insulin resistance. Results. For girls but not boys, levels of IL-6 at age 9 yrs correlated with HOMA-IR at age 13 yrs: r=0.223, P=0.008. Girls with IL-6 levels within the highest quartile at age 9 yrs had an odds ratio of 3.68 (CI = 1.58–8.57) being in the highest quartile of HOMA-IR four years later. Conclusion. In this cohort, IL-6 levels in childhood were related to insulin resistance in adolescence, but only for girls.

Coparenting Experiences in African American Families: An Examination of Single Mothers and their Nonmarital Coparents

description: African American youth from single mother homes continue to be overrepresented in statistics on risk behavior and delinquency, a trend that many be attributed to father-absence, socioeconomic disadvantage, and compromises in parenting more typical of single than two-parent families. Yet, this risk-focused perspective ignores a long-standing strength of the African American community, the involvement and potential protective impact of extended family members in childrearing. This study describes the experiences of 95 African American single mothers and their non-marital coparents who participated in a study of African American single mother families with an 11 to 16 year old child. Specifically, the study examines: 1) the extent to which nonmarital coparents are involved in childrearing; 2) the relative levels of risk (i.e., depression, mother-coparent conflict) and protective (i.e., parenting) associated with maternal and coparent involvement; and 3) how similarly and/or differently coparent and mother variables operate with regard to youth externalizing problems. Findings reveal that a range of family members and other adults actively participate in childrearing in African American single mother families, coparents do not differ from mothers on certain study variables (i.e., depression and mother-coparent conflict) but do for others (parenting), and coparent involvement is associated with youth adjustment in ways that are similar to our more established understanding of maternal involvement. The potential clinical implications of the findings are discussed and future research directions are highlighted.

description: In this study, we present profiles of some distinguished graduates in mathematics of the Jagiellonian University from the years 1918-1939. We discuss their professional paths and scholarly achievements, instances of scientific collaboration, connections with other academic centers in Poland and worldwide, involvement in mathematical education and teacher training, as well as their later roles in Polish scientific and academic life. We also try to understand in what way they were shaped by their studies and how much of Kraków scientific traditions they continued. We find strong support for the claim that there was a distinct, diverse and deep mathematical stream in Kraków between the wars, rooted in classical disciplines like differential equations and geometry, but also open to new trends in mathematics. Part I concerns the graduates before the university reform, in 1918-1926.

description: Morbidity and mortality are reliably lower for the married compared with the unmarried across a variety of illnesses. What is less well understood is how a couple uses their relationship for recommended lifestyle changes associated with decreased risk for illness. Partners for Life compared a patient and partner approach to behavior change with a patient only approach on such factors as exercise, nutrition and medication adherence. Ninety-three patients and their spouses/partners consented to participate (26% of those eligible) and were randomized into either the individual or couples conditon. However, only 80 couples, distributed across conditions, contributed data to the analyses, due to missing data and missing data points. For exercise, there was a significant effect of couples treatment on the increase in activity and a significant effect of couples treatment on the acceleration of treatment over time. Additionally, there was an interaction between marital satisfaction and treatment condition such that patients who reported higher levels of marital distress in the individuals condition did not maintain their physical activity gains by the end of treatment, while both distressed and non-distressed patients in the couples treatment exhibited accelerating gains throughout treatment. In terms of medication adherence, patients in the couples treatment exhibited virtually no change in medication adherence over time, while patients in the individuals treatment showed a 9% relative decrease across time. There were no condition or time effects for nutritional outcomes. Finally, there was an interaction between baseline marital satisfaction and treatment condition such that patients in the individuals condition who reported lower levels of initial marital satisfaction showed deterioration in marital satisfaction, while non- satisfied patients in the couples treatment showed improvement over time.

description: Synthesis of family research presents unique challenges to investigators who must delimit what will be included as a family study in the proposed review. In this paper, the authors discuss the conceptual and pragmatic challenges of conducting systematic reviews of the literature on the intersection between family life and childhood chronic conditions. A proposed framework for delimiting the family domain of interest is presented. The framework addresses both topical salience and level of relevance and provides direction to future researchers, with the goal of supporting the overall quality of family research synthesis efforts. For users of synthesis studies, knowledge of how investigators conceptualize the boundaries of family research is important contextual information for understanding the limits and applicability of the results.

description: Using data from 182 dual-earner couples experiencing the transition to parenthood, this study examined associations between prenatal involvement, gender role beliefs, and maternal gatekeeping and new fathers’ involvement in child health care. Results indicated that prenatal father involvement was associated with both fathers’ direct engagement in child health care and fathers’ perceived influence in child health-related decision-making. Fathers also demonstrated greater direct engagement in child health care when mothers held more nontraditional beliefs about gender roles. Moreover, when mothers were more encouraging of fathers’ involvement in childrearing, fathers felt more influential in child health-related decision-making, whereas when mothers engaged in greater gate closing behavior, fathers with more traditional gender role beliefs felt less influential in child health-related decision-making. This study suggests that fathers’ prenatal involvement, mothers’ beliefs, and maternal gatekeeping may play a role in the development of new fathers’ involvement in child health care at the transition to parenthood.
Optimized Random Deployment of Energy Harvesting Sensors for Field Reconstruction in Analog and Digital Forwarding Systems

description: This work examines the large-scale deployment of energy harvesting sensors for the purpose of sensing and reconstruction of a spatially correlated Gaussian random field. The sensors are powered solely by energy harvested from the environment and are deployed randomly according to a spatially nonhomogeneous Poisson point process whose density depends on the energy arrival statistics at different locations. Random deployment is suitable for applications that require deployment over a wide and/or hostile area. During an observation period, each sensor takes a local sample of the random field and reports the data to the closest data-gathering node if sufficient energy is available for transmission. The realization of the random field is then reconstructed at the fusion center based on the reported sensor measurements. For the purpose of field reconstruction, the sensors should, on the one hand, be more spread out over the field to gather more informative samples, but should, on the other hand, be more concentrated at locations with high energy arrival rates or large channel gains toward the closest data-gathering node. This tradeoff is exploited in the optimization of the random sensor deployment in both analog and digital forwarding systems. More specifically, given the statistics of the energy arrival at different locations and a constraint on the average number of sensors, the spatially-dependent sensor density and the energy-aware transmission policy at the sensors are determined for both cases by minimizing an upper bound on the average mean-square reconstruction error. The efficacy of the proposed schemes are demonstrated through numerical simulations.

description: The 1st known introduction of edge Computing traces back to the 1990s When Akami Technologies launched a Content delivery network or CDN, the goal was to introduce Computing nodes close (geographically) to users for faster delivery. As the name describes, “Edge Computing” is the computing that occurs at the edge of the cloud computing Hierarchy i.e., Geographically Closer to the user. Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) architecture with the help of 5G technology allows the placement of computational and storage resources within the RAN (radio access network). This increases work efficiency and decreases the time required to complete a task. Advantages of Edge Computing are observed on a wide scale throughout the IT industry, the foremost advantage includes improved speeds, reduced latency, better security, fair protection of privacy, reliability, resiliency, capital saving/cost savings, and wide scalability. The large-scale impact of Edge Computing is observed in our daily life such as smart assistants, smart wearables, and other services related to our daily lives. This deep-rooted network of small devices to large Industrial machinery is getting more efficient and making life effortless. In this data-driven operating world where lightning-fast results with a high level of flexibility edge computing is a viable solution depending on the current state of things.
Polish soldiers and British women – carnivalesque encounters during the Second World War

description: Polish soldiers and British women – carnivalesque encounters during the Second World War Hitler’s attack on Poland on September 1, 1939 and related to this British declaration of war two days later suddenly made two countries (Poland and Britain) which knew little, if anything, about one another allies. Polish soldiers, representing all military branches, came to the British Isles. While in collective memory the military effort of the Second World War occupies prominent place, it is also worth paying attention to the time which soldiers spent off the battle fields as it may deliver valuable information on cultural exchanges. After all, during the last war not only two nations, Polish and British one, but also representatives of two different cultures met. One example of these cross-cultural encounters were the relations between British women and Poles, the soldiers of the navy, army and air force. The article presents these relations in the context of Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of carnival. The present author argues that war, in certain situations, acquired the characteristics of Bakhtinian carnival. The analysis is based on the published Polish combatants’ wartime accounts of the war period.

Diethanolamine alters neurogenesis and induces apoptosis in fetal mouse hippocampus

description: Diethanolamine (DEA) is present in many consumer products such as shampoo. Dermal administration of DEA diminishes hepatic stores of the essential nutrient choline, and we previously reported that dietary choline deficiency during pregnancy reduces neurogenesis and increases apoptosis in the hippocampus of fetal rats and mice. Therefore, DEA could also alter brain development. Timed-pregnant C57BL/6 mice were dosed dermally from gestation day 7 through 17 with DEA at 0, 20, 80, 160, 320, and 640 mg/kg body/day. At doses of DEA > 80 mg/kg body/day, we observed decreased litter size. In fetuses (embryonic day 17) collected from dams treated dermally with 80 mg/kg body/day DEA, we observed decreased neural progenitor cell mitosis at the ventricular surface of the ventricular zone of the hippocampus [to 56±14% (SE) histone 3 (H3) phosphorylation as compared to controls; P < 0.01]. We also observed increased apoptosis in fetal hippocampus (to 170±10% of control measured using TUNEL and to 178±7% of control measured using activated caspase 3; P < 0.01). Thus, maternal exposure to DEA reduces the number of neural progenitor cells in hippocampus by two mechanisms, and this could permanently alter memory function in offspring of mothers exposed to this common ingredient of shampoos and soaps.—Craciunescu, C.
