description: Οι ιοί των ανθρώπινων θηλωμάτων έχουν συσχετιστεί με την εμφάνιση καρκίνου του τραχήλου της μήτρας, του τέταρτου πιο συχνού καρκίνου των γυναικών παγκοσμίως, ενώ το 70% των περιστατικών προκαλείται από λοίμωξη με τους υψηλού κινδύνου (high-risk) HPV16 και HPV18. Η ενσωμάτωση των ογκογονιδίων Ε6 και Ε7 αυτών των ιών στο γονιδίωμα του ξενιστή επηρεάζει ένα πλήθος κυτταρικών λειτουργιών και μεταβάλλει την έκφραση ποικίλων μορίων. Ο στόχος αυτής της εργασίας ήταν να διερευνήσει πώς αυτά τα ογκογονίδια συμβάλλουν στην έκφραση μορίων ελέγχου του ανοσοποιητικού συστήματος, χρησιμοποιώντας κυτταρικές σειρές με ενσωματωμένο το γονιδίωμα του HPV16, πριν και μετά την αποσιώπηση του ιικού γονιδίου E6, χρησιμοποιώντας το σύστημα CRISPR/Cas9, το οποίο εισήχθη στα κύτταρα με έναν λεντιϊικό φορέα. Τα μόρια που μελετήθηκαν είναι η διαμεμβρανική πρωτεΐνη απενεργοποίησης Τ-λεμφοκυττάρων PD-L1, ο μεταγραφικός της παράγοντας HIF-1a και ο αρνητικός ρυθμιστής του τελευταίου, το microRNA-143. Σύμφωνα με τα αποτελέσματά μας, στις κυτταρικές σειρές που έγινε αποσιώπηση του E6 (E6KO) καταγράφηκε αυξημένη έκφραση του miR-143, ενώ παρατηρήθηκε μείωση στην έκφραση των HIF-1a και PD-L1. Αυτά τα ευρήματα δείχνουν ότι η πρωτεΐνη Ε6 παίζει πιθανώς έναν σημαντικό ρόλο στην ανοσοδιαφυγή των καρκινικών κυττάρων του τραχήλου της μήτρας, ενώ προτείνουμε ένα μοριακό μονοπάτι, χάρη στο οποίο η έκφραση της PD-L1 ρυθμίζεται από την πρωτεΐνη Ε6 μέσω των μορίων miR-143/HIF-1a.
description: Human Papillomaviruses have been associated with the occurrence of cervical cancer, the fourth most common cancer that affects women globally, while 70% of cases are caused by infection with the high-risk types HPV16 and HPV18. The integration of these viruses’ oncogenes E6 and E7 into the host’s genome affects a multitude of cellular functions and alters the expression of various molecules. The aim of this study was to investigate how these oncogenes contribute to the expression of immune system control molecules, using cell lines with integrated HPV16 genome, before and after knocking out E6 viral gene using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, delivered with a lentiviral vector. The molecules studied are the T-cell inactivating protein PD-L1, its transcription factor HIF-1a and the latter’s negative regulator, microRNA-143. According to our results, in the E6 knock out (E6KO) cell lines an increased expression of miR-143 was recorded, while a decrease in the expression of HIF-1a and PD-L1 was exhibited. These findings indicate that E6 protein probably plays a significant role in enabling cervical cancer cells to evade the immune system, while we propose a molecular pathway in cervical cancer, where PD-L1’s expression is regulated by E6 protein through a miR-143/HIF-1a axis.

description: Insect-vectored plant bacterial pathogens are gaining attention in recent years due to crop threatening outbreaks around the world. Candidatus Liberibacter spp. are infecting crops of different botanical families: Solanaceae, Rutaceae, and Apiaceae and are vectored by psyllids. Five genetic haplotypes (A-E) have been described thus far for the species Ca. Liberibacter solanacearum (Lso). Haplotypes A and B infecting solanaceous plants, haplotypes C-E infecting Apiaceae crops. To better understand the genetic basis that governs host specificity of Lso haplotypes, we sequenced the genome of haplotype D (LsoD). The LsoD genome size is 1.23 Mbp, with a GC content of 34.8% and 1167 predicted genes. Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers were assigned using the JGI software tool and 358 ECs were identified. ECs were mapped to metabolic pathways and compared with other sequenced Liberibacters. Phylogenetic analysis based on ECs and assigned metabolic pathways shows that LsoD groups together with Lso haplotypes (A and B) and is clearly different than Liberibacter species infecting citrus. Differences between LsoD and LsoA/B haplotypes were also found, hinting on host specific enzymes. The LsoD genome was also scanned to identify putatively secreted proteins using the SignalP tool. Thirty-one putative genes were identified, most of them with unknown function. While some genes have homologous in other Lso haplotypes, some were unique to LsoD. By quantitative-PCR we examined the expression of the putatively secreted proteins in the different hosts; the psyllid vector Bactericera trigonica, and carrot. Several genes with significantly higher expression levels in carrot compared with psyllid and vice versa were identified. These genes may have host specific functions. Overall, our analyses reveal genetic and metabolic elements differentiating the carrot-infecting Lso from Lso haplotypes infecting potato/tomato. Research is underway to identify the function of these elements.

Relative to saline controls, HDL levels in plasma were significantly increased 6hrs after intraperitoneal administration with HDL alone and HDL in combination with LPS (both p < 0.0001). HDL levels in plasma were also significantly higher in HDL+LPS treated mice compared to LPS controls (p = 0.0035). To ensure that lipoproteins used in this study were free of contamination, reagents were stained by immunoblot. VLDL, LDL, HDL, and EV control (TSG101), at 2 different protein concentrations were measured. Figure S2. Scores plots of multi-variate analysis. Adult male C57BL/6 mice received an intraperitoneal injection of either saline (n=9), LPS (0.5mg/kg, n=11) or LPS mixed with lipoprotein immediately prior to administration (HDL, n=6, 20mg/kg; LDL, n=5, 20mg/kg). Control animals received an intravenous injection of HDL (n=6) or LDL alone (n=3). Fresh tissue was collected 6 hours post-insult, metabolites extracted and measured using 1H NMR. Scores plots of plasma (A), liver (B) and brain (C) samples were analysed by PCA using R 3.3.2 with the ROPLS package and in-house scripts.

description: In an increasingly global knowledge economy universities are recognised as strategically important institutions due to their knowledge creation potential.  This has led to a period of significant change for higher education (HE) sectors across the world as national governments have sought to influence their strategic direction.  In the UK the adoption of market principles and the creation of a mass system of HE delivery has caused universities to reform their long established operating practices and become more ‘business-like.’  In an effort to improve standards of people management in universities the government introduced the Rewarding and Developing Staff in Higher Education (RDS) initiative in 2001.  RDS required universities to produce HR strategies identifying detailed HR objectives and systems for managing the individual performance of staff according to a model of Human Resource Management (HRM). This research, based on a study informed by ethnographic methods, provides a critical evaluation and analysis of RDS and considers the extent to which it reflects a specific neoliberal policy trajectory seeking to reconstitute the nature of academic work through a process of individualisation.  My data points to the existence of such a strategy that has been only partially successful.  Academics have gradually become enfolded into the discourse of managerialism, leading to an erosion of their status and authority and the collegiate traditions and practices from which it derived.  There has been an evident transference of power to managers, a heightened presence and involvement of HR personnel and a growth in the size of HR departments.  But the discourse remains contested, leading to a complex picture of resistance at different levels of the university.  I conclude that RDS was an ultimately flawed strategy.  The attempt to introduce a homogeneous model of HRM into an area of work that is characterised by complexity, not only misjudged the rather unique nature of academic work but also, as a consequence, risks damaging the core of the academy itself.

description: Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία έχει ως αντικείμενο τη συνάντηση του Λουθηρανισμού με την Ορθόδοξη Ανατολή. Ειδικότερα, το προκείμενο πόνημα μελετά τις αρχές της διδασκαλίας του Λούθηρου, τόσο ανεξάρτητα όσο και σε σύγκριση με την Ορθόδοξη πίστη, και εν συνεχεία γίνεται λόγος για τις επαφές που διεξήχθησαν μεταξύ των δύο μερών προς γεφύρωση του χάσματος των διδαχών τους και την αναγνώριση των κοινών σημείων με σκοπό την αποδοχή των δογμάτων του Λουθήρου. Σκοπός της εργασίας αυτής είναι η ανάδειξη των σημαντικότερων πτυχών της επαφής των εκπροσώπων του Λουθηρανισμού και εκείνων της ορθόδοξης Εκκλησίας της Ανατολής, προκειμένου να αποτυπωθεί η στάση αμφότερων των μερών και να καταστούν κατανοητοί οι λόγοι για τους οποίους εν τέλει δεν υπήρξε σύγκλιση. Για να ολοκληρωθεί η προκείμενη βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση, αξιοποιήθηκε ένα σημαντικό εύρος πηγών, ελληνόγλωσσων και ξενόγλωσσων.
description: The subject of this thesis is the meeting between Lutheranism and the Orthodox East. In particular, this paper studies the principles of Luther's teaching, both independently and in comparison with the Orthodox faith, and then talks about the contacts that took place between the two parties to bridge the gap in their doctrines and to recognize the common points in order to accept the doctrines of Luther. The purpose of this work is to highlight the most important aspects of the contact between the representatives of Lutheranism and those of the Orthodox Church of the East, in order to capture the attitude of both parties and to make understandable the reasons why in the end there was no convergence. In order to complete the present bibliographic review, a significant range of sources, Greek and foreign languages, was used.

description: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the use of Social Media and the Internet to enhance philanthropy in non-profit and charitable organizations. More specifically, it will investigate whether the use of the internet and social media by a nonprofit charitable organization can increase its impact and attract supporters, volunteers and thus online donations. In the context of this objective, the presentation and analysis of the charitable organization ELEPAP Thessaloniki (Hellenic Society for the Protection and Rehabilitation of Disabled Persons) is presented and analyzed. Through the research you outline the profile of its competitors and with which strategy they appear first in google visibility. In the course of the research, five of the largest organizations in Greece and five abroad are analyzed in order to reflect the differences in methods and Social Media that each company follows separately, but also on an international level how they manage the frequency of their advertising. These results can be a starting point for future research how charitable organizations in Greece can use the internet to their advantage.

description: The management of type two diabetes mellitus is difficult and complex, especially for clinical physicians working in primary care. The spectrum of available treatments for diabetes mellitus type two has seen significant alterations over the last years, creating a busy and data-rich environment where evidence is rapidly evolving. Sodium glucose co-transporter type two inhibitors is a relatively new class of orally administered glucose reduction treatment that has been available for some years. These factors reduce glucose reabsorption in the kidneys and increase its excretion through urine. Contradicting views and opinions in the medical community have lead to misunderstandings regarding the efficacy, safety and appropriate place of treatment plans using i Sodium glucose co-transporter type two inhibitors the context of combatting diabetes mellitus type two. The aim of this paper was the investigation of the effects of sodium glucose co-transporter type two inhibitors inhibitors administration in diabetic patients after the completion of general blood and urine, as well as biochemical tests.

ALLEA Statement on Reforming Research Assessment Within the European Academies
Creators: name: ALLEA | All European Academies
Publisher: name: ALLEA
Year: 2022

description: The European research landscape is becoming increasingly hypercompetitive, resulting in a “publish-or-perish” culture where journal-based metrics are central to evaluating researchers and their work. This inappropriate use of quantitative indicators has a direct negative impact on the career opportunities and well-being of individual researchers. In addition, it demonstrably affects the quality of scholarly outcomes, the diversity of our research communities, and the trustworthiness of our research system as a whole.

There are many reasons to reform, and ALLEA, the European Federation of Academies of Sciences and Humanities, has therefore signed the European Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment and joined the associated coalition (CoARA). In addition, ALLEA commits to further supporting its Member Academies in developing assessment criteria based on principles of quality, integrity, diversity, and openness.

Behavioral and neural mechanisms of positive social sharing and social bonding
Creators: name: Brudner, Emily G.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the underlying behavioral and neural mechanisms that link social affiliation and wellbeing. Social affiliation and a sense of belonging are fundamental human needs and are closely linked to psychological wellbeing, physical health, and mortality. Yet, the factors that promote healthy affiliative behavior are unclear, leaving a gap in our understanding of when and how people benefit most from strong social bonds or what leads people to miss out on these adaptive socioemotional outcomes. One common way that people affiliate is through positive social sharing, which is the act of sharing positive events with others. Positive social sharing is ubiquitous, easily accessible both in-person and online, and has a wide range of health benefits, making it an excellent candidate for investigation in into the broader mechanisms of affiliation. Here, we employ a novel paradigm simulating a naturalistic sharing environment to disentangle the underlying mechanisms that drive positive social sharing and contribute to socioemotional wellbeing. In Chapter 2, we demonstrated that positive social sharing is driven primarily by positive feedback given by a social partner, which, over time, shapes the extent to which a sharer builds trust and closeness with that partner. We further show that this effect of feedback is rooted in reinforcement learning mechanisms and that the extent to which a sharer learns from feedback varies as a function of how often they engage in and benefit from social sharing in daily life. In Chapter 3 we replicated these findings and demonstrated that learning from feedback engages neural circuitry implicated in reward processing and social cognition, which further predicts trust and closeness. Finally, in Chapter 4, we demonstrated that reputational information about a social partner is used to form initial impressions about them, and that these impressions were most drastically updated when feedback from a social partner violated initial expectations. Overall, these findings contribute valuable, novel insights into the key factors that shape affiliation and the formation of social bonds, as well as offer promising avenues for translational research and interventions to promote adaptive social affiliation and socioemotional wellbeing.

description: Self-supervised learning (SSL) has recently emerged as a machine learning paradigm for large models, characterized by initial pre-training followed by supervised fine-tuning on domain-specific labeled data. SSL models have the potential to learn less biased representations, due to the lack of labels. In this work we benchmark SSL methods with respect to performance and we investigate the impact of these SSL methods on fairness, which ensures equivalent performance across diverse demographic groups. We systematically compare SSL approaches to their supervised counterparts on human-centric, temporal data. Regarding fairness metrics, we enhance our bias evaluation by employing metrics tailored to each task in both micro-average and macro-average fashion. While the micro-average method treats each dataset instance equally, the macro-average method averages over all individuals in the dataset. Our analysis indicates that SSL models can significantly improve fairness while maintaining performance, achieving over 70% increase in fairness with marginal 2.06% loss in performance.

Τα μοντέλα SSL έχουν τη δυνατότητα να μάθουν λιγότερο προκατειλημμένες αναπαραστάσεις, λόγω της έλλειψης ετικετών. Σε αυτήν την εργασία ερευνούμε την ε3πίδραση των μεθόδων SSL στην αλγοριθμική προκατάληψη, και κατά πόσο εξασφαλίζεται ισοδύναμη απόδοση των μεθόδων σε διαφοετικές δημογραφικές ομάδες. Συγκρίνουμε τις προσεγγίσεις SSL με τις αντίστοιχες εποπτευόμενες μεθόδους σε ανθρωπο-κεντρικά δεδομένα ως προς την απόδοση και την αλγοριθμική προκατάληψη. ΄Οσον αφορά τις μετριϰές διϰαιοσύνης (fairness metrics), ενισχύουμε την αξιολόγηση της αλγοριϑμιϰής προϰατάληψης χρησιμοποιώντας ϰατάλληλες μετριϰές τόσο σε επίπεδο micro μέσου όσο ϰαι σε επίπεδο macro μέσου. Ενώ η μέθοδος micro μέσου αντιμετωπίζει κάθε παράδειγμα του συνόλου δεδομένων ισότιμα, στη μέθοδο macro μέσου υπολογίζεται ο μέσος όρος για όλα τα άτομα στο σύνολο δεδομένων. Η ανάλυσή μας υποδεικνύει ότι τα μοντέλα SSL μπορούν να βελτιώσουν σημαντικά την αλγοριθμική προκατάληψη διατηρώντας την απόδοση, επιτυγχάνοντας πάνω από 70% μείωση της αλγοριθμικής προκατάληψης με μια μικρή απώλεια απόδοσης 2.06%.

description: This research explores the spatial-temporal linkages between urbanization and urban agriculture in the Gahanga cell of Kigali City. The study examines the relationship between urbanization and urban agriculture, analyzing changes in land use land cover over a period of 39 years. By using Remote sensing, GIS, and statistical analysis, the study found that urbanization has been increasing and led to a decrease in agricultural land where there has been a significant increase in the built-up area which has grown from 5.91% in 1984 to 22.11% in 2023. This increase in urbanization has led to a reduction in cropland area, which has declined from 67.53% in 1984 to 55.77% in 2023. The study furthermore employed interviews, questionnaire surveys, and policy analysis to identify challenges, and opportunities that are present, the key factors that can influence the sustainability of urban agriculture in the face of rapid urbanization including sustainable agricultural practices that take nature-based solutions into account as well as new modern farming techniques. 25 Individuals were interviewed including residents, farmers, and local government officials. The study found that a larger number of farmers were affected by land use land cover change characterized by a significant increase of built-up areas and associated issues like climate change, increase of vacant plots due to land fragmentation and lack of agricultural resources. Based on data analysis, there is a close relationship between environmental issues and urban agricultural land distribution like soil erosion, flooding and loss of biodiversity. As it was found that, over 90% of interviewed farmers are interested in urban farming specifically in innovative and advanced ways, the study proposes practical strategies for promoting urban agriculture as a means of enhancing food security and sustainable urban development. Overall, the research provides valuable insights for policymakers, urban planners, and all agricultural stakeholders seeking to address the complex challenges of urbanization and food security in rapidly growing cities through holistic ways and win-win situations.
