Opposing roles of NMDA receptor subtypes in neuronal fate and novel treatments for ischemic brain injury
Creators: name: Liu, Yitao
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Ischemic brain damage is largely due to excitotoxicity mediated by glutamate receptors, notably the N-methyl-D-aspartate-type receptors (NMDARs); however, to date none of the NMDAR antagonists have shown therapeutic benefits in treating stroke. Moreover, recent studies indicate blockade of NMDARs may even cause neuronal death. An explanation of the molecular mechanisms underlying this paradox is urgently required in order to develop new, effective stroke therapeutics. In this doctoral thesis project, we hypothesized that different NMDAR subtypes have opposing roles in neuronal fate and effective treatment of ischemic brain injury may be achieved through selective activation of the NMDAR subtype mediating neuronal survival and/or blockage of the NMDAR subtype mediating neuronal death. We first determined whether the two major NMDAR subtypes in mature cortical neurons, NR2A- and NR2B-containing NMDARs play differential roles in neuronal apoptosis. The results showed that NR2B-containing NMDARs are coupled to neuronal death whereas NR2A-containing receptors mediate neuronal survival. Further investigation revealed that the subcellular location (synaptic versus extrasynaptic) of NMDARs has little effect on their roles in neuronal fate. We then tested whether selective activation of NR2A-mediated neuronal survival signaling [i.e. neuronal survival signalling] or inhibition of NR2B-mediated neuronal death pathway is neuroprotective in stroke models. The data showed that blockade of NR2B is neuroprotective but has a relatively narrow therapeutic window. In contrast, selective activation of NR2A attenuates ischemic brain injury even when delivered 4.5 h post stoke onset. These findings suggest for the first time that selective stimulation of NR2A-containing NMDARs may constitute a promising therapy for stroke. Due to the critical role of NR2B in neuronal death and the narrow time window of NR2B antagonists, we examined whether disrupting the excitotoxic signaling [i.e. excitotoxic signalling] pathway downstream of NR2B activation was efficacious in treating ischemic damage. We found that post-ischemic administration of an interference peptide derived from the carboxyl tail of NR2B remarkably reduces stroke-induced brain injury. Thus, perturbing protein-protein interaction downstream of NR2B activation may represent another novel therapy for stroke. This research project provides a molecular basis for the dual roles of NMDARs in neuronal survival and demise and thereby suggests a number of clinically relevant new stroke therapies.
Ovidian Intertextuality: Some Considerations on Tr. 1 and Met. 11
Creators: name: Martorana, Simona
Publisher: name: PHASIS
Year: 2016

description: Having summed up the principal issues of the Tristia, as well as the ways in which scholars have approached Ovid’s exile works during the last few centuries, I will make a comparative analysis between Tr. 1.2‐4 and Met. 11.410‐748, the episode of Ceyx and Alcyone.The close intertextual connections that emerge from this analysis suggest not only that the fundamental textual source for Tr. 1.2‐4 is indeed Ceyx’ episode of the Metamorphoses, but also that these three poems, by sharing a common model, are interrelated, thus constituting a sort of unitary block. The aim of the paper is to show how Ovidian intertextuality may be profitably employed to shed light on Ovid’s modus operandi in arranging his works: indeed, the poet not only draws from other authors, but, especially in this case, also predominantly takes inspiration from his previous poetry and adapts it to a new context.

Molecular dynamics formulations lead to discretizations similar to those of ``particle in cell'' methods in plasma physics. We show how to formulate a local Monte-Carlo algorithm in the presence of the long ranged Coulomb interaction. We compare the efficiencies of our molecular dynamics and Monte-Carlo codes.

Das Wissen des Nichtwissens in der Schule von Nisibis

description: The paper highlights the significance of Barḥaḏbšabbā’s treatise Causa Fundationis Scholarum for the study of the transmission (and transformation) of Greek philosophy in the Syriac East during the period of Late Antiquity. Its first section introduces the importance of the Syriac philosophical tradition. The second and main part explores special aspects of Barḥaḏbšabbā’s treatise and contributes to our understanding of the philosophical underpinnings of Barḥaḏbšabbā’s thought. Throughout the paper, specific information drawn from Barḥaḏbšabbā is placed in a larger context and (comparative and contrastive) parallels are adduced from non-Syriac branches of the philosophical tradition. Thus, it is demonstrated within the treatise the confluence of mainstream Greek ideas and concepts that are found in Ephrem and are apparently not of Greek origin. Especially, the paper points towards a hitherto unnoticed, unusually early formulation of the difference between essence and existence within an ontological framework. The paper argues that such cases of departure from, and transformation of, mainstream Greek ideas may have been occasioned by, or may be related to, specificities of the Syriac language, as is shown for some of the terminologies of existence and being (iṯyā, iṯāw(hy), etc).

description: During my research on the writings of Theodoret of Cyrus, I encountered the homilies of Aphrahat the Persian Sage, since their authorship in the Armenian translation was ascribed to the first Syrian ascetic, Jacob of Nisibis, hero of the first chapter of Theodoret’s Historia Philothea. It incited me to discover the Georgian translations of the Demonstrations and analyze their reliability. This article represents a preliminary study of both homilies of Aphrahat rendered into Georgian: the 10th-century Georgian translation of Homily VI, rendered by an anonymous translator from an Armenian source, and the modern rendition of Homily VIII translated by Lasha Bezhanishvili from English.

description: We consider specific linear combinations of two loop modular graph functions on the toroidal worldsheet with $2s$ links for $s=2, 3$ and $4$. In each case, it satisfies an eigenvalue equation with source terms involving $E_{2s}$ and $E_s^2$ only. On removing certain combinations of $E_{2s}$ and $E_s^2$ from it, we express the resulting expression as an absolutely convergent Poincare series. This is used to calculate the power behaved terms in the asymptotic expansion of the zero mode of the Fourier expansion of these graphs in a simple manner.

title: Hepatitis C Virus NS5A Targets the Nucleosome Assembly Protein NAP1L1 to Control the Interferon Response
Creators: name: Cesarec, Mia
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a hepatotropic virus affecting more than 150 million people worldwide. HCV establishes a chronic infection in the majority of cases, which leads to severe liver complications such as cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Fortunately, recent potent direct acting antivirals can now cure the infection. However, such treatments can induce resistance, are extremely costly limiting their use to wealthier countries and are ineffective for the complications of the infection. Therefore, a better understanding of the interaction of HCV with the host cell remains a priority both to increase the armamentarium of antiviral drugs and to define the relationship between infection and malignant transformation. My study focuses on the mechanisms governing the evasion of the innate immune system, which are required to establish a chronic infection. The non-structural viral protein NS5A has the capacity to interact with a large number of cellular factors involved in promoting viral replication/assembly and in the cell antiviral response to HCV. Interaction of NS5A with the nucleosome assembly protein NAP1L1 has been recently characterized in my laboratory. NAP1L1 is a histone chaperone protein with various functions related to nuclear chromatin remodelling that impact on the regulation of cell cycle, on cell differentiation and on transcription. I have confirmed the interaction of NS5A with NAP1L1 in the cytoplasm and demonstrated the NS5A-dependent impairment of NAP1L1 nuclear translocation. Whole genome transcription analysis performed in NAP1L1 depleted hepatocytes indicated that its nuclear function might be essential for the transcriptional control of several interferon stimulated genes and the function of key innate immunity pathways. Indeed, I was able to demonstrate that NAP1L1 is a novel factor involved in the interferon response and specifically modulates TBK1/IKKε mediated IRF-3 phosphorylation and NF-κB levels. Hence, both the TLR3 and RIG-I/MDA5 pathways are affected by NAP1L1 depletion. I could further demonstrate that NAP1L1 controls the basal transcription of genes involved in the immune pathway and that it interacts with the adaptor protein MAVS, which is required for RIG-I/MDA5 signalling. In conclusion, by studying the interaction of the viral protein NS5A with the cellular factor NAP1L1 I could discover a novel mechanism of regulation of the innate response mediated by NAP1L1. These findings have wider implications for HCV and beyond, further highlighting the importance of studying viruses to uncover cellular functions.
La figure d’Agamemnon dans les Adagiorum Chiliades d’Érasme

description: Among the ancient expressions we find in the Adagiorum Chiliades of Erasmus, many are inspired by mythology. In this paper I focus on those related to Agamemnon’s personality. What arouses interest is that within these expressions and their commentaries we can clearly see the contradictions existing in respect to Agamemnon since antiquity, and Erasmus ― with his reserved criticism of the king and his differing opinions ― seems to underline these contradictions. I think that this could be explained by the fact that Agamemnon interested Erasmus as a fine example of a great king who can also have dangerous vices for his people, thus representing both an example (exemplum) and a warning (monitum).

description: We explore the formation and collective modes of Bose-Einstein condensate of Dirac magnons (Dirac BEC). While we focus on two-dimensional Dirac magnons, an employed approach is general and could be used to describe Bose-Einstein condensates with linear quasiparticle spectrum in various systems. By using a phenomenological multicomponent model of pumped boson population together with bosons residing at Dirac nodes, the formation and time evolution of condensates of Dirac bosons is investigated. The condensate coherence and its multicomponent nature are manifested in the Rabi oscillations whose period is determined by the gap in the spin-wave spectrum. A Dirac nature of the condensates could be also probed by the spectrum of collective modes. It is shown that the Haldane gap provides an efficient means to tune between the gapped and gapless collective modes as well as controls their stability.

description: Punctuation and segmentation is crucial in spoken language translation, as it has a strong impact to translation performance. However, the impact of rare or unknown words in the performance of punctuation and segmentation insertion has not been thoroughly studied. In this work, we simulate various degrees of domain-match in testing scenario and investigate their impact to the punctuation insertion task. We explore three rare word generalizing schemes using part-of-speech (POS) tokens. Experiments show that generalizing rare and unknown words greatly improves the punctuation insertion performance, reaching up to 8.8 points of improvement in F-score when applied to the out-of-domain test scenario. We show that this improvement in punctuation quality has a positive impact on a following machine translation (MT) performance, improving it by 2 BLEU points.

description: Breast cancer is one of the leading fatal disease worldwide with high risk control if early discovered. Conventional method for breast screening is x-ray mammography, which is known to be challenging for early detection of cancer lesions. The dense breast structure produced due to the compression process during imaging lead to difficulties to recognize small size abnormalities. Also, inter- and intra-variations of breast tissues lead to significant difficulties to achieve high diagnosis accuracy using hand-crafted features. Deep learning is an emerging machine learning technology that requires a relatively high computation power. Yet, it proved to be very effective in several difficult tasks that requires decision making at the level of human intelligence. In this paper, we develop a new network architecture inspired by the U-net structure that can be used for effective and early detection of breast cancer. Results indicate a high rate of sensitivity and specificity that indicate potential usefulness of the proposed approach in clinical use.

For analytic computation we adopt the near-extreme condition in the spacetime background. It is shown that the low-energy absorption cross section for the s-wave case holds an universality, {\it i.e.} the absorption cross section equals to the area of the black hole horizon divided by a velocity parameter.

description: Flood extent mapping plays a crucial role in disaster management and national water forecasting. In recent years, high-resolution optical imagery becomes increasingly available with the deployment of numerous small satellites and drones. However, analyzing such imagery data to extract flood extent poses unique challenges due to the rich noise and shadows, obstacles (e.g., tree canopies, clouds), and spectral confusion between pixel classes (flood, dry) due to spatial heterogeneity. Existing machine learning techniques often focus on spectral and spatial features from raster images without fully incorporating the geographic terrain within classification models. In contrast, we recently proposed a novel machine learning model called geographical hidden Markov tree that integrates spectral features of pixels and topographic constraints from Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data (i.e., water flow directions) in a holistic manner. This paper evaluates the model through case studies on high-resolution aerial imagery from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Geodetic Survey together with DEM. Three scenes are selected in heavily vegetated floodplains near the cities of Grimesland and Kinston in North Carolina during Hurricane Matthew floods in 2016. Results show that the proposed hidden Markov tree model outperforms several state of the art machine learning algorithms (e.g., random forests, gradient boosted model) by an improvement of F-score (the harmonic mean of the user's accuracy and producer's accuracy) from around 70% to 80% to over 95% on our datasets.

description: The article focuses chiefly on the research of Latin legal terminology presented in written monuments of Georgian Law in the 11th-21st centuries. It describes the long history of endeavors to establish the existence of Latin legal terms in Georgian legal sources, how they were received during different epochs, the regularities of forming these terms in the Georgian language, their initial meanings and other noteworthy details that are important not only from a philological perspective but from a legal point of view. Despite the fact that Georgia was never under the ruling of the Roman Empire, and hence, — Latin legal terms never entered Georgian law directly from Roman law or from the Latin language, from as early as the 11th century these terms made a significant impact on the creation of Georgian legal terminology. Overall, they greatly contributed to approximating Georgian law to Western legal culture.

description: Copper phthalocyanine (Cu-Pc) single crystals were grown by physical vapor transport and field effect transistors (FETs) on the surface of these crystals were prepared. These FETs function as p-channel accumulation-mode devices. Charge carrier mobilities of up to 1 cm2/Vs combined with a low field-effect threshold were obtained. These remarkable FET-characteristics, along with the highly stable chemical nature of Cu-Pc make it an attractive candidate for device applications.

A similar dependence exists in the current noise, but its behavior is known only in few limiting cases. We consider a metallic diffusive wire connected to a superconducting reservoir through an interface characterized by an arbitrary distribution of channel transparencies. Within the quasiclassical theory for current fluctuations we provide a general expression for the energy dependence of the current noise. We derive closed analytical expressions for large energy.

description: A number of proposed and ongoing experiments search for axion dark matter with a mass nearing the limit set by small scale structure (${\cal O} ( 10 ^{ - 21 } {\rm eV} ) $). We consider the late universe cosmology of these models, showing that requiring the axion to have a matter-power spectrum that matches that of cold dark matter constrains the magnitude of the axion couplings to the visible sector. Comparing these limits to current and future experimental efforts, we find that many searches require axions with an abnormally large coupling to Standard Model fields, independently of how the axion was populated in the early universe. We survey mechanisms that can alleviate the bounds, namely, the introduction of large charges, various forms of kinetic mixing, a clockwork structure, and imposing a discrete symmetry. We provide an explicit model for each case and explore their phenomenology and viability to produce detectable ultralight axion dark matter.

Attachment characteristics and sexual harassment perpetration and receipt among adolescent peers
Creators: name: Wun, Derek
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study investigated the association between adolescents' perceived attachments to mothers and fathers and their sexual harassment experiences with peers via attachment characteristics. Using the Sexual Harassment Survey and the Adolescent Attachment Questionnaire, grades eight to twelve students (N= 475, 43.8% male, n = 208; 55.4%) female, n = 263) in a public school in western Canada self-reported on their sexual harassment behaviour and experiences with peers and their perceived current attachments to mothers and fathers. Hierarchical regression analyses, controlling for gender and previous engagement in social-sexual relations, revealed that adolescents' perceptions of mothers' availability was negatively related to perpetrating peer sexual harassment. Adolescents' perceived paternal angry distress showed a positive association to perpetrating this behaviour, however, the interaction between adolescents' perceived paternal angry distress and availability accounted for slightly more variance in the dependent variable than angry distress alone. Finally, adolescents' perceptions of fathers' availability showed a negative relationship to receiving peer sexual harassment. Distinctions between mother-child and father-child interactions throughout childhood and adolescence are discussed as the basis for the differences in results between mothers and fathers. The implications of a parent-adolescent attachment model for understanding the emergence of peer sexual harassment in adolescence are addressed.

Sprachliche Oppositionen und Hierarchien zur Beschreibung der Weltordnung in Corpus Areopagiticum

Publisher: name: PHASIS
Year: 2015

description: Hierarchy and opposition are two fundamental principles of the theology and cosmology of a philosopher known as a descriptor or a magister hierarchiarum in the history of theological science, namely (Pseudo-) Dionysius the Areopagite. Hierarchy and opposition are universal structural relationships between components of a system, including a natural language; they are the most important relationships within linguistic units of a language system: hierarchy represents the principle of the existence of units at different levels, while opposition describes how units at the same level exist. Linguistic oppositions, which should reflect the apparent contradictions of the universe by revealing the truth in the compilation of the members of these opposites, include mainly those of grammatical categories (gender, number, tense forms, subject/predicate opposition). Hierarchy can be used as a kind of vertical opposition; its members do not stand in opposition to each other but are in a relationship of subordination. Among language hierarchies, the following are mentioned: lexical hyperonymes, and the relationship between the derivative and the base word in word-formation, and the system of comparison in the morphology of the adjective. Finally, the structure of the text is taken as a hierarchy at a higher level. Hierarchy and opposition in internal language relations are used by Dionysius the Areopagite to form and underline the idea of the hierarchical structure of the universe. Linguistic hierarchies and oppositions in his works are closely linked to logical ones. These systemic relations are in his discourses, transformed in sort to level their differences: each opposition has a shadow of hierarchy and each hierarchy necessarily contains an opposition.

Der Inbegriff des Kinetischen im Menschen bei Gregor von Nyssa
Creators: name: Dolidze, Tina
Publisher: name: PHASIS

description: This paper explores the notion of movement as expressed by the generic term kinesis and its grammatical and conceptual derivatives, which regularly occur in Gregory of Nyssa’s anthropology. Despite some investigations into the issue within the framework of careful research on Gregory’s thought, a more systematic examination of the concept in his anthropological doctrine remains a considerable desideratum. I would like to contribute a general sketch of such analysis. The doctrine as presented by Nyssen implies numerous elements of syncretic doctrine about man’s nature that were widely accepted in Late Antiquity. Nevertheless, through three structured topics for this research – 1) The cosmic motion in its relation to man; 2) The motion of body and soul in man; and 3) Spiritual ascent as a type of motion – I argue that the concept of motion in Nyssen’s anthropology has an authentic character as he rethinks the inherited philosophical ideas according to the biblical model of the relation between universe, man and God. The concept of man as the central creation and image of God results in Nyssen’s shifting the sensible universe with its rotation as an ideal form of motion in Greek philosophy from the central position it had to the background, replacing it by the phenomenon of man. Although the sensible cosmos ruled by the wisdom of God remains a paradigm for the ideal constellation of mind, affects and body in man, the highest type of motion – as St. Gregory recognizes in line with Platonic metaphysics – is spiritual motion. The distinctive feature fundamentally different from the Platonic stance is that St. Gregory (a) highlights the motif of the mystical movement to God, independent from and opposed to the cosmic cyclical harmony, and (b) interprets this spiritual process as an infinite qualitative ascent to the infinite God. Expressed in geometrical terms the concept in Nyssen’s epistemology can be traced by his giving precedence to straight line vertical motion before cyclical motion.

description: We present a detailed assessment of the far-infrared confusion noise imposed on measurements with the ISOPHOT far-infrared detectors and cameras aboard the ISO satellite. We provide confusion noise values for all measurement configurations and observing modes of ISOPHOT in the 90<=lambda<=200um wavelength range. Based on these results we also give estimates for cirrus confusion noise levels at the resolution limits of current and future instruments of infrared space telescopes: Spitzer/MIPS, ASTRO-F/FIS and Herschel/PACS.

description: The following download offers free access to the teaching tool which was developed collaboratively in a one-day workshop for doctoral students as part of the European Architectural History Network themed conference, Displacement and Domesticity: Refugees, Migrants, and Expats Making Homes (27-29 March 2019, Brussels).The teaching tool is intended as a starting point for scholars working on the history and theory of displacement and domesticity.The workshop considered the importance of the theoretical and discursive intersection of displacement and domesticity; provoked participants to reflect on their role as producers and consumers of knowledge; interrogated the ways in which concepts and modes of knowledge are transferred and exchanged among scholars as well as among broader publics; and, considered the potential for the generative and the generous in this emerging scholarship. The following document is thus neither conclusive nor comprehensive, but reflects the outcomes of the workshop.Users of the teaching tool are invited to tailor it. We are grateful to those who would like to make use of, share and further develop this teaching tool, who would thereby keep it alive and add to the collective endeavour of its creation.

Exactly solvable two-terminal heat engine with asymmetric Onsager coefficients: Origin of the power-efficiency bound

description: An engine producing a finite power at the ideal (Carnot) efficiency is a dream engine, which is not prohibited by the thermodynamic second law. Some years ago, a two-terminal heat engine with {\em asymmetric} Onsager coefficients in the linear response regime was suggested by Benenti, Saito, and Casati [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 106}, 230602 (2011)], as a prototypical system to make such a dream come true with non-divergent system parameter values. However, such a system has never been realized in spite of many trials. Here, we introduce an exactly solvable two-terminal Brownian heat engine with the asymmetric Onsager coefficients in the presence of a Lorenz (magnetic) force. Nevertheless, we show that the dream engine regime cannot be accessible even with the asymmetric Onsager coefficients, due to an instability keeping the engine from reaching its steady state. This is consistent with recent trade-off relations between the engine power and efficiency, where the (cyclic) steady-state condition is implicitly presumed. We conclude that the inaccessibility to the dream engine originates from the steady-state constraint on the engine.

description: A set $S\subseteq V$ is called an {\em $q^+$-set} ({\em $q^-$-set}, respectively) if $S$ has at least two vertices and, for every $u\in S$, there exists $v\in S, v\neq u$ such that $N^+(u)\cap N^+(v)\neq \emptyset$ ($N^-(u)\cap N^-(v)\neq \emptyset$, respectively). A digraph $D$ is called {\em s-quadrangular} if, for every $q^+$-set $S$, we have $|\cup \{N^+(u)\cap N^+(v): u\neq v, u,v\in S\}|\ge |S|$ and, for every $q^-$-set $S$, we have $|\cup \{N^-(u)\cap N^-(v): u,v\in S)\}\ge |S|$. We conjecture that every strong s-quadrangular digraph has a Hamilton cycle and provide some support for this conjecture.
