description: Mitochondrial impairment is a hallmark feature of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson disease, and PRKN/parkin-mediated mitophagy serves to remove unhealthy mitochondria from cells. Notably, probiotics are used to alleviate several symptoms of Parkinson disease including impaired locomotion and neurodegeneration in preclinical studies and constipation in clinical trials. There is some evidence to suggest that probiotics can modulate mitochondrial quality control pathways. In this study, we screened 49 probiotic strains and tested distinct stages of mitophagy to determine whether probiotic treatment could upregulate mitophagy in cells undergoing mitochondrial stress. We found two probiotics, Saccharomyces boulardii and Lactococcus lactis, that upregulated mitochondrial PRKN recruitment, phospho-ubiquitination, and MFN degradation in our cellular assays. Administration of these strains to Drosophila that were exposed to paraquat, a mitochondrial toxin, resulted in improved longevity and motor function. Further, we directly observed increased lysosomal degradation of dysfunctional mitochondria in the treated Drosophila brains. These effects were replicated in vitro and in vivo with supra-physiological concentrations of exogenous soluble factors that are released by probiotics in cultures grown under laboratory conditions. We identified methyl-isoquinoline-6-carboxylate as one candidate molecule, which upregulates mitochondrial PRKN recruitment, phospho-ubiquitination, MFN degradation, and lysosomal degradation of damaged mitochondria. Addition of methyl-isoquinoline-6-carboxylate to the fly food restored motor function to paraquat-treated Drosophila. These data suggest a novel mechanism that is facilitated by probiotics to stimulate mitophagy through a PRKN-dependent pathway, which could explain the potential therapeutic benefit of probiotic administration to patients with Parkinson disease.

description: Otocolobus Brandt, 1842. Bull. Sci. Acad. Imp. Sci. St. Petersbourg, 9:col. 38. TYPE SPECIES: Felis manul Pallas, 1776, by original designation. SYNONYMS: Trichaelurus Satunin, 1905. COMMENTS: Palmer (1904:487) and Allen (1938) believed that Otocolobus Severtzov, 1858, was a junior homonym of Otocolobus Brandt, 1844, a subgenus of Sciuridae, and suggested using Trichaelurus Satunin, 1905. Brandt apparently reassigned the generic name in 1844 after his initial use for a felid in 1842.

description: What do you do when researchers ask for systematic review help and no librarian has ever conducted one? Run away? Smile and nod? Tell the truth: we don’t have much experience, but we’ll help the best we can. Because of the need for systematic review services, the STEM librarians began training in evidence-based research inviting other liaison librarians to join us in Fall 2020. The core group included 2 STEM, 2 social science, and 1 humanities librarian. We will share how we learned about systematic reviews and our deliverables: a research guide, a service model, and Canvas course. After introducing the new systematic review services, we received requests for classes, consultations, training, help with project management and design, and access to systematic review software. Working together as a group made the project less intimidating. The service has been well received both by fellow librarians as well as faculty and researchers.

description: Biofilm formation is a key virulence factor among many microorganisms, it is also important for the formation of persistent forms which result in chronicity of pathological processes within macro organisms. The development of new technologies in molecular biology, biochemical studies and imaging techniques leads to a better understanding of biofilm formation. The question of using these technologies in vitro and/or in vivo is relevant in modern conditions. The lack of standardized methods of biofilm culturing is troublesome for researchers. The results of studies performed in one laboratory might not be reproduced and confirmed by other independent researchers. Culturing techniques designed for microscopy investigation may be useless for other types of analyses, such as harvesting biofilm biomass for biochemical measurements. In most cases these culturing methods can be adapted to study certain aspects of the system in which the researcher is interested. All methods of experimental reproduction of biofilms can be divided into two major groups – methods using “closed” and those using “open” systems. The main advantage of the second group of methods consists in receipt and renewal of nutrients, removal of metabolites and, as a result, the creation of external conditions maximally similar to the natural habitats of microorganisms. A variety of microbiological, physical, chemical and molecular methods are used to visualize and study the quantitative and qualitative composition of biofilms. Key words: biofilms, interdisciplinary research, quantitative characteristics of biofilms, qualitative characteristics of biofilms.

description: This paper is devoted to the problem of ergodicity of $p$-adic dynamical systems. Our aim is to present criteria of ergodicity in terms of coordinate functions corresponding to digits in the canonical expansion of $p$-adic numbers. The coordinate representation can be useful, e.g., for applications to cryptography. Moreover, by using this representation we can consider non-smooth $p$-adic transformations. The basic technical toolsare van der Put series and usage of algebraic structure (permutations) induced by coordinate functions with partially frozen variables. We illustrate the basic theorems by presenting concrete classes of ergodic functions.

description: The description of the dynamics of a system that may be correlated with its environment is only meaningful within the context of a specific framework. Different frameworks rely upon different assumptions about the initial system-environment state. We reexamine the connections between complete-positivity and quantum discord within two different sets of assumptions about the relevant family of initial states. We present an example of a system-environment state with non-vanishing quantum discord that leads to a completely-positive map. This invalidates an earlier claim on the necessity of vanishing quantum discord for completely-positive maps. In our final remarks we discuss the physical validity of each approach.

description: With Gaia theorist Lynn Margulis and posthumanist Bruce Clarke, Diana Leong argues against the fetishizing of genes and seeks an alternative to the modern synthesis of Darwinian natural selection and Mendelian inheritance. These amodern, posthumanist approaches instead offer a gradual accumulation and transmission of mutations, and a coevolutionary embeddedness within diverse environments and the socio-political structures responsible for them.
An event-based model for contracts

description: We introduce a basic model for contracts. Our model extends event structures with a new relation, which faithfully captures the circular dependencies among contract clauses. We establish whether an agreement exists which respects all the contracts at hand (i.e. all the dependencies can be resolved), and we detect the obligations of each participant. The main technical contribution is a correspondence between our model and a fragment of the contract logic PCL. More precisely, we show that the reachable events are exactly those which correspond to provable atoms in the logic. Despite of this strong correspondence, our model improves previous work on PCL by exhibiting a finer-grained notion of culpability, which takes into account the legitimate orderings of events.

description: Dofetilide is a rapid delayed rectifier potassium current inhibitor widely used to prevent the recurrence of atrial fibrillation and flutter. The clinical use of this drug is associated with increases in QTc interval, which predispose patients to ventricular cardiac arrhythmias. The mechanisms involved in the disposition of dofetilide, including its movement in and out of cardiomyocytes, remain unknown. Using a xenobiotic transporter screen, we identified MATE1 (SLC47A1) as a transporter of dofetilide and found that genetic knockout or pharmacological inhibition of MATE1 in mice was associated with enhanced retention of dofetilide in cardiomyocytes and increased QTc prolongation. The urinary excretion of dofetilide was also dependent on the MATE1 genotype, and we found that this transport mechanism provides a mechanistic basis for previously recorded drug-drug interactions of dofetilide with various contraindicated drugs, including bictegravir, cimetidine, ketoconazole, and verapamil. The translational significance of these observations was examined with a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model that adequately predicted the drug-drug interaction liabilities in humans. These findings support the thesis that MATE1 serves a conserved cardioprotective role by restricting excessive cellular accumulation and warrant caution against the concurrent administration of potent MATE1 inhibitors and cardiotoxic substrates with a narrow therapeutic window.

description: In the framework of a gauge mediated quiver-like model, the standard model flavor texture can be naturally generated. The model - like the MSSM - has furthermore a region in parameter space where the lightest Higgs mass is fed by heavy stop loops, which in turn sets the average squark mass scale near 10-20 TeV. We perform a careful flavor analysis to check whether this type of mild-split SUSY passes all flavor constraints as easily as envisioned in the original type of split SUSY. Interestingly, it turns out to be on the border of several constraints, in particular, the branching ratio of mu -> e gamma and, if order one complex phases are assumed, also epsilon_K neutron and electron EDM. Furthermore, we consider unification as well as dark matter candidates, especially the gravitino. Finally, we provide a closed-form formula for the soft masses of matter in arbitrary representations of any of the gauge groups in a generic quiver-like model with a general messenger sector.

description: We show that condensate-induced transitions between two-dimensional topological phases provide a general framework to relate one-dimensional spin models at their critical points. We demonstrate this using two examples. First, we show that two well-known spin chains, namely the XY chain and the transverse field Ising chain with only next-nearest-neighbor interactions, differ at their critical points only by a non-local boundary term and can be related via an exact mapping. The boundary term constrains the set of possible boundary conditions of the transverse field Ising chain, reducing the number of primary fields in the conformal field theory that describes its critical behavior. We argue that the reduction of the field content is equivalent to the confinement of a set of primary fields, in precise analogy to the confinement of quasiparticles resulting from a condensation of a boson in a topological phase. As the second example we show that when a similar confining boundary term is applied to the XY chain with only next-nearest-neighbor interactions, the resulting system can be mapped to a local spin chain with the u(1)_2 x u(1)_2 critical behavior predicted by the condensation framework.

description: Um Forschende bei der Identifizierung geeigneter Open-Access-Zeitschriften für ihre Forschungsergebnisse zu unterstützen, haben TIB und SLUB Dresden im Rahmen der BMBF-geförderten Richtlinie Beschleunigung der Transformation zu Open Access und in Zusammenarbeit mit vielen Partnereinrichtungen B!SON als offenen und unabhängigen Dienst entwickelt. Ausgehend von einem zu veröffentlichenden Manuskript kommen semantische und bibliometrische Verfahren zum Einsatz, um inhaltlich passende und qualitätsgesicherte Open-Access-Zeitschriften vorzuschlagen. Im Gegensatz zu ähnlichen Angeboten setzt B!SON dabei konsequent auf eine offene und nachhaltige Infrastruktur: Der Dienst bezieht die für die Ähnlichkeitsbestimmung benötigten Metadaten von den Partnern DOAJ und OpenCitations; der Quellcode ist unter einer freien Lizenz veröffentlicht. Auch in Hinblick auf die Einbindung des Services beschreitet das Projekt B!SON neue Wege. Neben dem über die Projektseite erreichbaren zentralen Webangebot erlaubt eine TYPO3-Extension die Einbettung des B!SON-Frontends in die digitalen Beratungsservices von Bibliotheken und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen.

description: In this article we investigate the possibility of generating piezoelectric orbital polarization in graphene-like systems which are deformed periodically. We start with discrete two-level models which depend on control parameters; in this setting, time-dependent model hamiltonians are described by loops in parameter space. Then, the gap structure at a given Fermi energy generates a non-trivial topology on parameter space which then leads to possibly non-trivial polarizations. More precisely, we show the polarization, as given by the *King-Smith--Vanderbilt formula*, depends only on the homotopy class of the loop; hence, a necessary condition for non-trivial piezo effects is that the fundamental group of the gapped parameter space must not be trivial. The use of the framework of non-commutative geometry implies our results extend to systems with weak disorder. We then apply this analysis to the uniaxial strain model for graphene which includes nearest-neighbor hopping and a stagger potential, and show that it supports non-trivial piezo effects; this is in agreement with recent physics literature.

The geology of a portion of the San Jose Hills
Creators: name: Cutsforth, David H.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1949
Subjects: Geological and Planetary Sciences

description: The area discussed in this report, consisting of sixteen square miles, embraces a portion of the San Jose Hills approximately three miles south of the town of Covina, Los Angeles County, California. The area was mapped on a base map prepared from U. S. Geological Survey topographic maps, and the Brunton compass-pacing method of mapping was used.

The region is part of an upland that rises above the Los Angeles and San Gabriel basins, and consists of a group of rolling hills trending in an approximate east-west direction. The relief throughout the region is moderate, and as a result of the semi-arid climate vegetation in the area is sparse. Bedrock is well exposed, excepting in some of the areas underlain by shale, where slumping has distorted the rocks and soils and a dense grass growth further hinder exposure of the underlying formations.

All of the rocks exposed in the area are of sedimentary origin, and, with the exception of Recent and Pleistocene alluvium, are part of the Puente formation of upper Miocene age. The Puente formation is divided into three members--a lower member of shale, a middle member of sandstone and conglomerate, and an upper member of shale, sandstone, and conglomerate. The subsurface rocks, knowledge of which has been derived from wells drilled in the area, consist of the Topanga formation, the Glendora volcanics, the Mountain Meadows dacite porphyry, and the basement complex in that order with increasing depth.

There appear to have been two major periods of deformation in the San Jose Hills area during Tertiary time--one at the close of the Pliocene and one during and after the deposition of the Miocene Puente formation. The Puente deformation seems to have involved only gentle folding, but the post-Pliocene deformation was more severe, involving steep folding and some faulting. The general structural trend of the region is approximately N 60 E, and is parallel to the boundaries of the higher hills. Folding in the area has created a series of parallel anticlines and synclines, with the San Jose anticline in the northern half of the area being the major structure. The one fault of any magnitude in the area is the San Jose fault, which enters from the east and apparently dies out in the central part of the area. It is a vertical or steeply dipping reverse fault with considerable downthrow on the south side. There are other smaller faults in the southern half of the area.

The geologic history of the region largely involves erosion after the intrusion of the basement complex in Mesozoic time until the Miocene period, when the area became one of deposition. The Glendora volcanics were deposited in early middle Miocene time, followed by submergence of the area and deposition of the Topanga, Puente, and Pliocene formations. After the close of the Pliocene the region emerged from beneath the sea and again became an area of erosion.

description: The review presents information on the current approach to the issue of stimulation of immunity in the emergency prevention and treatment of dangerous bacterial infections. Any infectious process, regardless of the type of pathogen, degree of virulence and infecting dose is invariably accompanied by a decrease in the body's defenses. In this regard, a reasonable immunocorrection of emerging immunodeficiency states is an important part of the complex therapy for infectious lesions in general and for especially dangerous infections, in particular. The greatest practical application in the fight against infections caused by bacterial pathogens have been found by drugs that mainly affect the T-system of immunity: recombinant cytokines (betaleukin, roncoleukin, ingaron, interferons, colony-stimulating factors), synthetic peptides - analogues of active centers of thymic hormones (bestim, imunofan ), the thiopoietin drug glutoxim. The data on the development and testing of new immunocorrective drugs of various nature, including biopolymers of natural origin, isolated from marine hydrobionts and representatives of the Far Eastern flora. Key words: emergency prophylaxis, dangerous bacterial infections, treatment of infections, immunomodulators, synthetic peptides, recombinant cytokines, defensins.
Horizon wave-function for single localized particles: GUP and quantum black hole decay

description: A localised particle in Quantum Mechanics is described by a wave packet in position space, regardless of its energy. However, from the point of view of General Relativity, if the particle's energy density exceeds a certain threshold, it should be a black hole. In order to combine these two pictures, we introduce a horizon wave-function determined by the particle wave-function in position space, which eventually yields the probability that the particle is a black hole. The existence of a minimum mass for black holes naturally follows, albeit not in the form of a sharp value around the Planck scale, but rather like a vanishing probability that a particle much lighter than the Planck mass be a black hole. We also show that our construction entails an effective Generalised Uncertainty Principle (GUP), simply obtained by adding the uncertainties coming from the two wave-functions associated to a particle. Finally, the decay of microscopic (quantum) black holes is also described in agreement with what the GUP predicts.

description: We propose a stochastic model for the number of different words in a given database which incorporates the dependence on the database size and historical changes. The main feature of our model is the existence of two different classes of words: (i) a finite number of core-words which have higher frequency and do not affect the probability of a new word to be used; and (ii) the remaining virtually infinite number of noncore-words which have lower frequency and once used reduce the probability of a new word to be used in the future. Our model relies on a careful analysis of the google-ngram database of books published in the last centuries and its main consequence is the generalization of Zipf's and Heaps' law to two scaling regimes. We confirm that these generalizations yield the best simple description of the data among generic descriptive models and that the two free parameters depend only on the language but not on the database. From the point of view of our model the main change on historical time scales is the composition of the specific words included in the finite list of core-words, which we observe to decay exponentially in time with a rate of approximately 30 words per year for English.

description: W artykule autorka podjęła problematykę refleksji pojmowanej jako refleksja naukowa (nad określonym zagadnieniem), refleksja krytyczna oraz autorefleksja prowadząca do samopoznania i autokorekty, czyli przemiany wewnętrznej. Ukazała znaczenie refleksji w rozwoju filo- i ontogenetycznym człowieka, modyfikacji jego zachowania, a zwłaszcza w prawidłowym procesie edukacyjnym. Analiza pojęcia refleksji, obowiązującego w naukach humanistycznych i społecznych, doprowadziła do wykazania różnic między refleksją a myśleniem, kontemplacją, introspekcją oraz koncentracją uwagi. Autorka zaakcentowała również współczesny problem niedoborów refleksyjności (ujmowanej jako dyspozycja psychiczna), związany m.in. z ekspansją technologii informatycznych, zakłóceniami harmonii emocjonalnej, moralnej, duchowej dzieci, młodzieży i dorosłych, a także nieumiejętnością korzystania z dorobku kulturowego. Dostrzegając konieczność przeciwdziałania niekorzystnym zjawiskom, zaprezentowała autorską propozycję kształtowania refleksyjności wychowanków/podopiecznych/uczniów w środowisku rodzinnym i instytucjonalnym.

description: Choreography-based programming is a powerful paradigm for defining communication-based systems from a global viewpoint. A choreography can be checked against multiparty protocol specifications, given as behavioural types, that may be instantiated indefinitely at runtime. Each protocol instance is started with a synchronisation among the involved peers. We analyse a simple transformation from a choreography with a possibly unbounded number of protocol instantiations to a choreography instantiating a single protocol, which is the merge of the original ones. This gives an effective methodology for obtaining new protocols by composing existing ones. Moreover, by removing all synchronisations required for starting protocol instances, our transformation reduces the number of communications and resources needed to execute a choreography.

description: Assuming that the spin $a$ of the black hole, presumably located at the core of the active galactic nuclei Messier 87 (M87), takes the value which maximises the ergospheric volume of the Kerr spacetime, we find results compatible with the recent observations obtained by high resolution interferometry on the origin of the jet, which would be located inside the innermost stable circular orbit diameter. Moreover, we find a flow of unbound geodesics issued from the ergoregion able to frame the best fits at large scale recently obtained for describing the observed profile of the relativistic jet launched from this central engine.

description: Este trabajo se propone como un aporte a una discusión teórica y política que interroga la relación entre lengua y soberanía en el discurso de las ciencias del lenguaje en su emergencia y consolidación en el siglo XIX, y en el modo en el cual las mismas contribuyen a construir una noción de lo popular, sus modos de manifestación, registro, archivo y análisis, indagando un corpus que comienza en el centro de Europa, en la Alemania del siglo XIX, pero cuyo alcance se indaga hasta las versiones posteriores del mismo discurso en territorio sudamericano. Así, se procurará explorar en este recorrido el modo en el cual las representaciones de las formas legítimas de la expresión popular como depositarias de una tradición valiosa, originaria, reservorio de sentido para la nación establecen al mismo tiempo los rasgos y límites propios de esa legitimidad, con implicancias de orden cultural, lingüístico, moral, en definitiva, (gloto)político, cuyos alcances llegan hasta el presente.
