title: Structure-Based Development of Galectin- Specific Inhibitors

Subjects: subject: Galectins

description: Galectins are a family of [beta]-galactoside-specific lectins with sequence and structure conservation within their carbohydrate recognition domains. Galectins are found in a variety of species such as fungi, fish, birds and mammals. Furthermore, galectins are located in the nucleus, the cytoplasm and the extracellular matrix with their expression and localization regulated by the cell and its environment. Galectins are implicated in a number of disease states such as inflammation and cancer. Galectin-3 contributes to the progression of every step of cancer, from malignant transformation to angiogenesis, metastasis, immune evasion and to drug resistance. In contrast, galectin-4 plays contradicting roles in different cancers, enhancing metastasis of liver and lung cancers but inhibiting metastasis in colon and pancreatic cancers. The development of high-affinity selective inhibitors of galectins to probe their functions and to treat diseases is a major goal within the galectin field. Inhibition of galectins have mostly focused on galectin-3 and galectin-1, as these are the most thorougly studied galectins with significant correlation to disease progression. Divergent strategies have been employed in the inhibition of these galectins including saccharide modification, glycodendrimers with multiple peripheral saccharides, large natural complex polysaccharides such as modified citrus pectin as well as the use of peptides and peptidomimetics. Non-saccharide small molecule inhibitors toward galectins are not yet available. Recent reports regarding the anti-cancer capacity of galectins, such as for galectin-4, have highlighted the need for selective inhibitors. A major challenge in developing selective galectin inhibitors has been the high conservation of the carbohydrate binding site among galectins.

description: Private foreign investment has been of major import­ance in Australia's post-war industrial development. While it is impossible to compare what has actually happened in the Australian economy with what might have happened in the absence of a capital inflow, it seems clear that since 1945 private foreign investors have not only added substantially to the funds available for investment in the private sector, but have also provided access to much of the technical knowledge and managerial skill developed in the more industrially advanced countries of Europe and North America. The rapid growth of those sectors in which foreign capital and foreign skills are combined in fruitful harmony has been a vital force impelling growth throughout the economy.

title: Lockeanism and restitution: What are the implications of a Lockean law of restitution for the contemporary UK?
Creators: name: Jarrett, David
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2022

description: This dissertation sets out a Lockean law of restitution and enquires into some of the implications of this law. It firstly looks into the implications for property redistribution in a case study country – the contemporary UK. It secondly looks into the implications of the law for understanding exploitation in the contemporary UK and historical England until the early industrial era. According to Lockean justice, one owns one’s body and is entitled to fully own previously unowned natural resources one has laboured on. One is also able to transfer one’s property to whom one wishes. We are concerned with the problem of how to address holdings which did not arise in line with Lockean justice. We argue that previous attempts at addressing the problem, including those laid out by Nozick and Rothbard respectively, have been unsatisfactory. We set out a new way of approaching the problem, which we argue is more consistent with Lockean theory. We lay out a Lockean law of restitution inspired by the law of restitution found in the English legal tradition. After laying out the Lockean law of restitution, we look into some implications of the law. Using secondary historical and sociological sources, we argue that all property in the UK is unjustly held according to the Lockean law of restitution and should be redistributed in an egalitarian manner. We secondly argue that wage labour in the contemporary UK is exploitative in Lockean terms, and thirdly, that wage labour can reasonably be presumed to have always been exploitative in England historically. In light of our findings we outline the possibilities for a Lockean approach to property redistribution in the UK.

description: The lack of a cure for advanced prostate cancer (PCa) highlights the need for better therapies to fight this disease, which is the second most common cause of cancer-related death in men. Nature is a rich source of potent anticancer agents, as 75% of the current drugs are derived from natural products, some being microtubule-targeting drugs like vinblastine and docetaxel. While proven to increase overall survival time of PCa patients, docetaxel treatment ultimately fails in part due to the development of drug resistance, presenting a major clinical challenge, given the limited number of alternative treatments currently available. As part of a research program aimed at identifying new anticancer compounds from nature for drug discovery and development, a pre-fractionated plant library was screened for cytotoxic activity in the PCa cell line LNCaP. This cell line is positive for the androgen receptor (AR) and is androgen-dependent; LNCaP cells are representative of advanced PCa sensitive to AR-targeted therapies. Only plants native to Australia were considered for the pre-fractionated library. A taxonomically diverse set of plants were used with 12 botanical families and 16 genera represented. The library consisted of 38 fractions obtained from C18 HPLC fractionation of 38 MeOH plant extracts, with one fraction collected for each extract. A growth inhibition assay based on metabolic activity (alamarBlue) was used to screen the 38 fractions against the PCa cell line LNCaP. Of the 38 fractions screened, six displayed inhibition of more than 50% at 10 µg/mL, which was the cut-off selected for pursuing hit fractions. Bioassay-guided fractionation and/or mass-directed isolation were performed on two plant samples, Anopterus macleayanus and Hernandia albiflora. Several cytotoxic natural products were purified and their chemical structures determined using a combination of 1D/2D NMR, MS, and UV data.

description: The partial transposition(PT) operation is an effecient tool in detecting the inseparability of a mixed state. We give an explicit formula for the PT operation for the continuous variable states in Fock space. We then give the necessary and sufficient condition for the positivity of Gaussian operators. Based on this, a number of creterions on the inseparability and distillability for the multimode Gaussian states are naturally drawn. We finally give an explicit formula for the state in a subspace of a global Gaussian state. This formula, together with the known results for Gaussian states, gives the criterions for the inseparability and distillability in a subspace of the global Gaussian state.

description: High-resolution palynological analysis was conducted from four wells of the Jansz-Io Gas Field (Exmouth Plateau, Northern Carnarvon Basin) to refine the Australian Oxfordian Wanaea spectabilis microplankton biozone. The refined biozonation scheme was then utilised to produce integrated biostratigraphic, sequence stratigraphic and palaeoenvironmental interpretations of the Jansz Sandstone reservoir sequence. Palynological preparations from 155 conventional core samples yielded a highly diverse assemblage of dinoflagellate cysts and acritarchs of good to excellent preservation. The assemblage comprises 112 genera with 194 microplankton species and varieties. Of these, 2 new genera and 26 new species are formally described, 2 species are emended with 1 species generically reattributed, and an additional 11 genera and 37 species are informally described. For future reference of this well preserved material, each species is illustrated in a large catalogue of plates. Key taxa identified through quantitative analysis are utilised to refine the intersected portion of the Wanaea spectabilis microplankton zone. Proposed zonal subdivisions are defined on first and last stratigraphic occurrences, first and last common occurrences and species acmes which can be correlated across the Jansz-Io Field. The subzones are tentatively correlated to the Poulsen & Riding, 2003 Northern Hemisphere Dinoflagellate Cyst Zones; Bown & Cooper, 1998 Nannofossil Zones; the Groupe Francais d'Etude du Jurassique, 1997 Tethyan, Sub-Boreal and Boreal Ammonoid Zones; and the ICS 2008 Geologic Time Scale. Lithofacies and qualitative palynofacies analyses are integrated with petrophysical wireline logs to produce bio-sequence stratigraphic and palaeoenvironmental interpretations for the Jansz Sandstone reservoir sequence. Bioevent-derived zonule boundaries are identified to reflect 'biostratigraphic parasequences' arranged in transgressive/regressive couplets as indicated by an inversely oscillating AOM/wood ratio. These biostratigraphic parasequences provide valuable information regarding sequence and reservoir architecture in the absence of lithostratigraphic controls. The application of selected dinocyst species as palaeoenvironmental proxies is examined. Extreme intraspecific variability of some dinocyst taxa may reflect salinity and/or temperature changes caused by a high-frequency, cyclical climatic regime, such as a seasonal monsoonal climate.

title: Children’s cross-cultural literacy experiences in three worlds: Enacting agency

subject: children
subject: cultural diversity

subject: literacy learning
subject: Australia
subject: Preschool

description: The literacy experiences of a small group of culturally-diverse children were examined in this study. The experiences, too, were diverse – and influential. The children, five girls aged four – five years, attended the same Preschool, in an inner suburb of a large city in Australia. Data were gathered at home, during the last two months of the preschool year and, for three of the children, during writing sessions in the first six months of Year One. Vygotskian ideas on meaning-making were integrated with other perspectives on development, literacy learning and teaching from a sociocultural, theoretical framework. The purpose was to identify dimensions of children’s literacy experiences and provide insight into ways in which children negotiate culture, literacy, and schooling, challenge current perspectives, contribute to research knowledge and determine how teachers might take account of cultural diversity in classrooms to better support children in literacy learning. A grounded theory method was employed using multiple data collection tools and techniques in both home and school contexts. Data were coded using a process of constant comparison to identify features, characteristics and dimensions of children’s literacy experiences. Independent inter-rater agreement on the coding of features at home, Preschool and school was 98.4%. Findings included a variety of values, beliefs and perspectives amongst parents and between teachers in relation to literacy learning, roles and relationships, and home-school connections. Children’s literacy experiences at home differed in terms of nature, frequency and resources and experiences in each of the settings were very different. A major finding was that children acted as agents of their own learning: mixing, transferring, trying out, adapting, and experimenting to determine appropriate practices and make decisions including when to exercise choice to enact agency. These assimilation and accommodation adaptations were identified as akin to code-switching, labelled as culture-switching, and identified as areas requiring further research.

Government in Wanggulam
Creators: name: Ploeg, Anton
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1965
Subjects: subject: Wanggulam Politics and government

description: The thesis is divided into two parts, each consisting of five chapters. Part II deals with Wanggulam government as it was before the arrival of the white man, whereas Part I provides the necessary backguound material. Field work among the Wanggulam was carried out in 196O-I962. At that time many elements of the traditional culture of the people had ceased to be on account of the contacts with the white man. Australian missionaries settled close by the Wanggulam in 1 9 5 6 and by 196O-62 the people were profoundly disturbed by the mission teachings. The first half of chapter I relates how the resulting religious movement influenced my relationships with the Wanggulam and hampered field enquiries. The second half of the chapter deals with mode of livelihood and material culture. It shows that in both aspects the Wanggulam, resemble other Highlands peoples a great deal, but that their agriculture and pig raising are less sophisticated and their material culture less colourful and ornate.
SCALAR: Simultaneous Calibration of 2D Laser and Robot Kinematic Parameters Using Planarity and Distance Constraints

description: In this paper, we propose SCALAR, a calibration method to simultaneously calibrate the kinematic parameters of a 6-DoF robot and the extrinsic parameters of a 2D Laser Range Finder (LRF) attached to the robot's flange. The calibration setup requires only a flat plate with two small holes carved on it at a known distance from each other, and a sharp tool-tip attached to the robot's flange. The calibration is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem where the laser and the tool-tip are used to provide planar and distance constraints, and the optimization problem is solved using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. We demonstrate through experiments that SCALAR can reduce the mean and the maximum tool position error from 0.44 mm to 0.19 mm and from 1.41 mm to 0.50 mm, respectively.

The business community in Taiping, Malaya : a study in social geography
Creators: name: Lee, Siew Eng
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1965
Subjects: subject: Social surveys Malaya Taiping
subject: Taiping (Perak) Social conditions

description: A few comments as to the broad implications of the thesis, that is, where this borderline study fits within the general framework of urban geography or urban sociology may be useful. The study as it stands is neither strictly urban geography nor urban sociology, the one for lack of areal patterns and spatial emphasis, the other from differences in approach and for lack of attention to the details which a sociologist, making a community study, would find of importance. When the project was first conceived, the interest was essentially a study in urban geography. However, interpretation of urban patterns, not necessarily all spatial, inevitably raises a number of questions which are both social and economic. As the search for causal factors to explain these patterns intensifies there comes a stage where the need to concentrate on processes tends increasingly to overshadow the importance of the actual patterns themselves. The geographer finds himself, temporarily at least, abandoning his own field for a kindred discipline, and the outcome is a geographical study coloured with a strong element of sociology. This seems symptomatic of the problems with which Geography is faced. D.B. Mather quotes Kirk, 'Modern geography was created by scholars trained in other disciplines asking themselves geographical questions and moving inwards in a community of problems; it could die by a reversal of this process whereby trained geographers move outwards in a fragmentation of interests seeking solutions to non-geographical problems. The present study finds its niche here. Extensions to the study could move either in the direction of urban sociology as the community is studied with greater depth and breadth and sociological techniques are sharpened, or towards urban geography with concentration on areal patterns and reduplications of such studies in other urban centres for comparative analysis. It would be interesting, from a geographical viewpoint, to see the extent to which ethnic distribution intra-urban residential movements, location of businesses, occupational patterns, family organisation, house - hold structure and so forth in other Malayan towns compare with those found in Taiping. This will also allow certain geographical phenomena to be mapped meaningfully. Whichever direction future studies take, such investigations are not only valuable contributions to academic knowledge because sociological data of Malaya are very scarce, but the findings are of direct use to those concerned with the urban planning of a fast developing country .
Chiral corrections to kaon-nucleon scattering lengths

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We calculate the threshold T-matrices of kaon-nucleon and antikaon-nucleon scattering to one loop order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. To that order the complex-valued isospin-1 $\bar KN$ threshold T-matrix can be successfully predicted from the isospin-0 and 1 $KN$ threshold T-matrices. As expected perturbation theory fails to explain the isospin-0 $\bar KN$ threshold T-matrix which is completely dominated by the nearby subthreshold $Λ^*(1405)$-resonance. Cancelations of large terms of second and third chiral order are observed as they seem to be typical for SU(3) baryon chiral perturbation theory calculations. We also give the kaon and eta loop corrections to the $πN$ scattering lengths and we investigate $πΛ$ scattering to one-loop order. The second order s-wave low-energy constants are all of natural size and do not exceed 1 GeV$^{-1}$ in magnitude.

description: Observations of black hole-neutron star (BH-NS) mergers via gravitational waves (GWs) are of great interest for their electromagnetic counterparts, such as short gamma-ray bursts, and could provide crucial information on the nature of BHs and the NS crust and magnetosphere. While no event has been confirmed, a recent possible detection of a BH-NS merger event by the LIGO-Virgo collaboration has attracted a lot of attention to these sources. In this second paper of the series, we follow-up our study of the dynamical evolution of triples comprised of an inner BH-NS binary. In particular, we examine how the progenitor metallicity affects the characteristics of the BH-NS mergers in triples. We determine the distributions of masses, orbital parameters and merger times, as a function of the progenitor metallicity and initial triple orbital distributions, and show that the typical eccentricity in the LIGO band is $\sim 10^{-2}-10^{-1}$. We derive a merger rate range of $Γ_\mathrm{BH-NS}=1.9\times 10^{-4}-22 \ \mathrm{Gpc}^{-3}\ \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$, consistent the LIGO-Virgo upper limit. Finally, we study the expected spin-orbit misalignments of merging BH-NS binaries from this channel, and find that typically the effective spin distribution is peaked at $χ_{\rm eff}\sim 0$ with significant tails.

description: We reexamine a scenario in which photons and gravitons arise as Goldstone bosons associated with the spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance. We study the emergence of Lorentz invariant low energy physics in an effective field theory framework, with non-Lorentz invariant effects arising from radiative corrections and higher order interactions. Spontaneous breaking of the Lorentz group also leads to additional exotic but weakly coupled Goldstone bosons, whose dispersion relations we compute. The usual cosmological constant problem is absent in this context: being a Goldstone boson, the graviton can never develop a potential, and the existence of a flat spacetime solution to the field equations is guaranteed.

description: Chronic wounds and wounds that are difficult to heal are a major concern for Australian healthcare expenditure and a source of misery for those who suffer from them. For example, in Australia in 2012, there were an estimated 433,000 people suffering from these, costing an estimated AUD2.6 billion dollars for the year to July. Novel ways of healing wounds are continually being sought. Two strategies used to accelerate wound healing are augmenting angiogenesis and through manipulation of wound healing growth factors. The method of stimulating angiogenesis proposed in this research was through the use of a topically applied flavonoid or lignan molecule. Two compounds in particular, the lignan erythro-guaiacylglycerol-8-O-4’-coniferyl alcohol (T1) and the flavonoid naringenin, have demonstrated pro-angiogenic activity based on in vitro testing but they had not been trialled previously in vivo. C57BL/6J mice were used in techniques building on previous studies. Wounds were created with a control, positive control, and T1 and naringenin topically applied at varying concentrations. The compounds tested were applied at 3-day intervals, aiming for wound healing within 12 days. A second group was used to analyse the wounds and compounds trialled at day 3 after wounding, the day of maximal angiogenesis. The wounds were recorded and measured using pictorial and digital-image analysis. Results showed that both the flavonoid (naringenin) and the lignan (T1) when applied to wounds actually increased the size of the wounds and the length of time required for the wounds to heal. Subsequent histological analysis revealed that wounds treated with both T1 and naringenin, although not healing faster, produced higher amounts of granulation tissue and collagen deposition. Based on these data it is hypothesised that the above compounds caused an excessive deposition of granulation tissue, preventing effective wound healing. Although the wounds did not heal effectively, the results obtained from this study may be useful when applied to wounds that are difficult and slow to heal, such as diabetic ulcers. In conclusion, further studies are required to confirm that these novel compounds increase angiogenesis, granulation tissue and collagen deposition within wounds. If so, new studies to find optimal dosage and application regimes may provide useful approaches to accelerating wound healing in the future.
Electric circuits for non-Hermitian Chern insulators

description: We analyze the non-Hermitian Haldane model where the spin-orbit interaction is made non-Hermitian. The Dirac mass becomes complex. We propose to realize it by an $LC$ circuit with operational amplifiers. A topological phase transition is found to occur at a critical point where the real part of the bulk spectrum is closed. The Chern number changes its value when the real part of the mass becomes zero. In the topological phase of a nanoribbon, two non-Hermitian chiral edges emerge connecting well separated conduction and valence bands. The emergence of the chiral edge states is signaled by a strong enhancement in impedance. Remarkably it is possible to observe either the left-going or right-going chiral edge by measuring the one-point impedance. Furthermore, it is also possible to distinguish them by the phase of the two-point impedance. Namely, the phase of the impedance acquires a dynamical degree of freedom in the non-Hermitian system.

title: The Playful Frame of Mind: An Exploration of its Influence upon Creative Flow in a Post-War Popular Music-Making Context

description: The aim of this thesis is to explore how adopting a playful approach to contemporary popular music making influences creative flow within that context. In order to achieve this aim three component factors derived from the intersection of the scholarly humour, creativity, and play literature––frame of mind, flow, and playfulness (PF)––have informed a single unifying theme I call the “playful frame of mind.” Contemporary popular music makers live in an era where an over-abundance of affordable technological aids (along with the distribution capabilities of the internet) have created a glut of creative possibilities, and along with it an ever-present risk of cognitive dissonance caused by their “noise.” Such technology brings creative options to all and sundry once reserved for a few rock star elite signed to multinational record companies. It is now possible for every part of the popular music-making process to be performed, or enhanced, within a software context. Nonetheless, popular musicians today still operate according to paradigms largely informed by epoch-changing, post-War recording artists such as Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, and The Beach Boys. The technology used for doing so may have progressed, but the basic rules (and roles) of the game have remained the same.
The basic structure of Australian air law
Creators: name: Kuribayashi, Tabao
Publisher: name: The Australian National University

Subjects: subject: Aeronautics Law and legislation Australia

description: As an introduction, we observe 'air law' in two aspects; firstly, how far the technology and social organization of aviation have affected the structure of rules known as air law, and secondly how far analogies from or the principles of other branches of law have been found appropriate or inappropriate for the solution of air law problems# Various legal problems have sprung from the impact of the aviation industry upon existing social, political and economic systems and have generated special enactments containing special principles and rules, largely independent of the existing common law or other relevant field of law. This thesis examines the basic structure of this newly emerging law in the special setting of Australian federalism, a system designed without regard for the special problems of aviation or air law; regard is had especially to the questions how far human ingenuity has enabled some accommodation of often conflicting considerations to be established, and how far distortion of air law desiderata or of constitutional desiderata has resulted.

Local determination of the Hubble constant and the deceleration parameter

description: The determination of the Hubble constant $H_0$ from the Cosmic Microwave Background by the Planck Collaboration [Aghanim et al. 2018] is in tension at $4.2σ$ with respect to the local determination of $H_0$ by the SH0ES collaboration [Reid et al. 2019]. Here, we improve upon the local determination, which fixes the deceleration parameter to the standard $Λ$CDM model value of $q_0=-0.55$, that is, uses information from observations beyond the local universe. First, we derive the effective calibration prior on the absolute magnitude $M_B$ of Supernovae Ia, which can be used in cosmological analyses in order to avoid the double counting of low-redshift supernovae. We find $M_B = -19.2334 \pm 0.0404$ mag. Then, we use the above $M_B$ prior in order to obtain a determination of the local $H_0$ which only uses local observations and only assumes the cosmological principle, that is, large-scale homogeneity and isotropy. This is achieved by adopting an uninformative flat prior for $q_0$ in the cosmographic expansion of the luminosity distance. We use the latest Pantheon sample and find $H_0= 75.35 \pm 1.68 \text{ km s}^{-1} {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$, which features a 2.2% uncertainty, close to the 1.9% error obtained by the SH0ES Collaboration. Our determination is at the higher tension of $4.5σ$ with the latest results from the Planck Collaboration that assume the $Λ$CDM model. Furthermore, we also constrain the deceleration parameter to $q_0= -1.08 \pm 0.29$, which disagrees with Planck at the $1.9σ$ level. These estimations only use supernovae in the redshift range $0.023\le z\le 0.15$.

Weyl Anomaly and Vacuum Magnetization Current of M5-brane in Background Flux
Creators: name: Chu, Chong-Sun
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It was recently discovered that for a boundary system in the presence of a background magnetic field, the quantum fluctuation of the vacuum would create a non-uniform magnetization density for the vacuum and a magnetization current is induced in the vacuum. It was also shown that this magnetic Casimir effect of the vacuum is closely related to another quantum effect of the vacuum, the Weyl anomaly. Furthermore, the phenomena can be understood in terms of the holography of the boundary system. In this article, we review the derivation of this phenomena from QFT as well as the derivation of it using AdS/BCFT. We then generalize this four dimensional effect to six-dimensions. We use the AdS/BCFT holography to show that in the presence of a 3-form magnetic field strength $H$, a string current is induced in a six-dimensional boundary conformal field theory. This allows us to determine the gauge field contribution to the Weyl anomaly in six-dimensional conformal field theory in a $H$-flux background. For the (2,0) superconformal field theory of $N$ M5-branes, the current has a magnitude proportional to $N^3$ for large $N$. This suggests that the degree of freedoms scales as $N^3$ in the (2,0) superconformal theory of $N$ multiple M5-branes. Our result for the Weyl anomaly is a new prediction for the (2,0) theory.
