CaV 3.1 and CaV 3.3 account for T-type Ca2+ current in GH3 cells

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

T-type Ca2+ channels are important for cell signaling by a variety of cells. We report here the electrophysiological and molecular characteristics of the whole-cell Ca2+ current in GH3 clonal pituitary cells. The current inactivation at 0 mV was described by a single exponential function with a time constant of 18.32 +/- 1.87 ms (N = 16). The I-V relationship measured with Ca2+ as a charge carrier was shifted to the left when we applied a conditioning pre-pulse of up to -120 mV, indicating that a low voltage-activated current may be present in GH3 cells. Transient currents were first activated at -50 mV and peaked around -20 mV. The half-maximal voltage activation and the slope factors for the two conditions are -35.02 +/- 2.4 and 6.7 +/- 0.3 mV (pre-pulse of -120 mV, N = 15), and -27.0 +/- 0.97 and 7.5 +/- 0.7 mV (pre-pulse of -40 mV, N = 9). The 8-mV shift in the activation mid-point was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The tail currents decayed bi-exponentially suggesting two different T-type Ca2+ channel populations. RT-PCR revealed the presence of alpha1G (CaV3.1) and alpha1I (CaV3.3) T-type Ca2+ channel mRNA transcripts.
Illusory motion due to causal time filtering

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Static patterns by Kitaoka (2006), the most well known of which is the “Rotating Snake”, elicit forceful illusory motion. The patterns are composed of repeating patches of asymmetric intensity profile, in most cases organized circularly. Motion perception depends on the size of the patches and is found to occur in the periphery for larger patches and closer to the center of the eye for small patches. We propose as main cause for these illusions erroneous estimation of image motion due to eye movements. The reason is that image motion is estimated from the spatial and temporal energy of the image signal with filters which are symmetric in space, but asymmetric (causal) in time. In other words, only the past, but not the future, is used to estimate the temporal energy. It is shown that such filters mis-estimate the motion of locally asymmetric intensity signals for a range of spatial frequencies. This mis-estimation predicts the perceived motion in the different patterns of Kitaoka as well as the peripheral drift illusion, and accounts for the effect at varying patch size. This study builds upon our prior work on the distortion of image features and movement (Fermüller and Malm 2004). Kiatoka (2006): http://www.ritsumei.ac.jp/~akitaoka/index-e.html. C. Fermüller and H. Malm (2004).“ Uncertainty in visual processes predicts geometrical optical illusions ”, Vision Research, 4, 727–749.
A quick method of demonstrating bacillaemia in patients with lepromatous leprosy and ultrastructural studies of the circulating acid-fast bacilli

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

While studying circulating immune complexes (CIC) in the sera of lepromatous patients by the polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation technique, we found (by light microscopy) abundant acid-fast bacilli (AFB), morphologically similar to those seen in slit skin smear preparations from these patients, precipitated with the PEG precipitated materials. Both solid and non-solid AFB could be readily identified. Ultrastructures of these AFB in the PEG aggregates showed some similarity with those detected in the PEG precipitates prepared from armadillo-derived lepromin under identical conditions. The most striking difference between the AFB in the test sera and that in the armadillo-derived lepromin was the absence of any transverse band in the former. This suggested that the AFB in the patients' circulation were not in division stage. Furthermore, electron-dense material were deposited on the AFB co-precipitated from the patients' sera, which were not found on the AFB co-precipitated from the armadillo-derived lepromin.
GANTI KERUGIAN PEMBEBASAN TANAH MILIK UNTUK KEPENTINGAN UMUM

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

AbstractRoad construction projects for public use, usually involve many locations of land owned by communities with ownership rights. The construction of public facilities made by the government prior to construction must carry out the stages of land acquisition as contained in Law No. 2 of 2012 concerning land acquisition for development in the public interest. The research method used is normative research by using the statutory approach and concept analysis approach. The results showed that the city government provided compensation for the location of land that would be affected by the construction of public facilities. The mechanism of land acquisition or land acquisition in the city is carried out by providing compensation to the value of the land price that will be released in an appropriate and fair manner based on article 9 paragraph (2) of Law Number 2 of 2012. Land issues so far are very relevant to be studied together and considered in depth in relation to policies in the field of land because at the level of policy implementation that has been shown so far has neglected the structural aspects of land tenure, which in turn caused various disputes. Keywords: Compensation, Land Acquisition, Property Rights, Public Interest.AbstrakProyek pembuatan jalan untuk kepentingan umum, biasanya melibatkan banyak lokasi tanah yang dimiliki oleh masyarakat yang berstatus hak milik. Pembuatan sarana umum yang dibuat oleh pemerintah tersebut sebelum dibangun harus melakukan tahapan pembebasan lahan sebagaimana yang termuat dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 2 tahun 2012 tentang pengadaan tanah bagi pembangunan untuk kepentingan umum. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian normatif dengan melakukan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan (Statute Approach) dan pendekatan analisis konsep (Conceptual Approach). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah kota memberikan ganti kerugian atas lokasi tanah yang akan terkena pembuatan sarana umum tersebut. Mekanisme pembebasan tanah atau pengadaan tanah di kota dilakukan dengan memberikan ganti kerugian terhadap nilai harga tanah yang akan dibebaskan secara sesuai dan adil berdasarkan pasal 9 ayat (2) Undang-Undang Nomor 2 Tahun 2012. Persoalan tanah selama ini sangat relevan dan dipertimbangkan secara mendalam dalam kaitannya dengan kebijakan dibidang pertanahan karena ditingkat implementasi kebijakan yang diperlihatkan selama ini telah mengabaikan aspek struktural penguasaan tanah yang pada akhirnya menimbulkan berbagai macam sengketa.Kata Kunci : Ganti Kerugian, Hak Milik, Kepentingan Umum, Pembebasan Tanah.
Ethnocentrism of Polish and Russian consumers: are feelings andintentions related

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Investigates ethnocentric tendencies of Polish and Russian consumers and whether tendencies vary by country, demographic characteristics and store type (formerly state owned or private). Examines whether ethnocentrism affects product selection decisions. Poles are significantly more ethnocentric than Russians. Ethnocentric Poles are older, more likely to be female, less educated, and have lower incomes than less ethnocentric consumers. For Russians, the more ethnocentric consumers are less educated. Degree of ethnocentrism is not related to purchase intention for Poles but is related for Russians. Consumers who shop at formerly state‐owned stores are significantly more ethnocentric than private store shoppers for both countries.
The influence of experimental philosophy on the free will debate

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Problem slobode volje jedan je od najintrigantnijih filozofskih problema zapadnog civilizacijskog kruga. U posljednjih desetak godina Joshua Knobe, Shaun Nichols, Eddy Nahmias i drugi istraživaci koji se bave eksperimentalnom filozofijom nastojali su metodama empirijskih znanosti propitati utemeljenost određenih pozicija unutar rasprave. Uobicajeno se oba tabora, inkompatibilisti i kompatibilisti, u svojim argumentacijama obilato pozivaju na predfilozofkse intuicije na kojima zasnivaju svoje koncepcije slobodnog djelovanja i moralne odgovornosti. No, rezultati tih empirijskih istraživanja ukazuju da brojne predfilozofske intuicije nisu onakve kakve pretpostavljamo da jesu sto, samim time, upucuje na slabo opravdanje onih pozicija koje se na njih pozivaju. Da li time određene pozicije gube na svojoj relevantnosti? I da li smo time prinuđeni prekrojiti raspravu? Ovim radom nastojat cu pokazati da su neki zakljucci eksperimentalnih filozofa, iako zanimljivi, ipak konceptualno slabo utemeljeni te koji puta - pretjerani.
Acute Ischemic Stroke in Young Immunocompromised Patient With Hypolipidemia

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Although majority of strokes occur at age over 65, nearly one-fourth of strokes occur in people under age of 65. In 30% of these patients, the cause of stroke remains undetermined and therefore there is a need for discovering rare risk factors like human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The incidence of stroke in young adults lacks the traditional risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes, but HIV-infected patients can manifest with stroke at younger age. Pathogenesis of ischemic stroke in HIV infection is unclear but is postulated to be caused by several possible mechanisms, including opportunistic infection, vasculopathy, cardioembolism, coagulopathy and combination antiretroviral therapies, and so on. Secondary hypolipidemia is common in the setting of chronic infection like HIV and anemia. Low serum cholesterol is a known cause for intracerebral hemorrhage. Hypolipidemia causing ischemic stroke is unknown. We report a unique case of ischemic stroke in young severely immunocompromised patient in the setting of hypolipidemia.

The efficacy and safety of intravenous infusion of Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors during stent implantation in cerebral infarction：A systematic review and a meta-analysis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Rationale There is a growing interest in regenerative medicine approaches that have the potential to modify the course of osteoarthritis.Among them, amniotic suspension allograft (ASA) injections have emerged as a promising treatment option due to their anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and regenerative properties.ASA contains various growth factors, cytokines, and extracellular matrix components that may promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation within the joint.Several clinical studies have already demonstrated promising results with ASA for the treatment of osteoarthritis, with no major adverse events reported.Despite its potential, no systematic review or meta-analysis currently focuses on this topic.Therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis of the available studies are warranted to synthesize the existing evidence, assess the clinical effectiveness, and determine the safety profile of ASA injections in patients with OA.The findings of this study will contribute to the understanding of ASA as a therapeutic option for OA and may guide clinical decision-making and future research directions.Condition being studied Osteoarthritis (OA) is a p re v a l e n t a n d d e b i l i t a t i n g j o i n t d i s e a s e characterized by the progressive degradation of articular cartilage, leading to pain, loss of function, and a reduced quality of life.Traditional treatment modalities for OA, such as non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroid injections, and physical therapy, often provide only temporary relief and do not address the underlying degenerative processes.
Convection and convective-organization in hothouse climates

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

In a “hothouse” climate, very warm temperatures lead to a high tropospheric water vapor concentration. Sufficiently high water vapor levels lead to the closing of the water vapor infrared window, which prevents radiative cooling of the lower troposphere. Because water vapor also weakly absorbs solar radiation, hothouse climates feature radiative heating of the lower troposphere. In recent work, this radiative heating was shown to trigger a shift into a novel “episodic deluge” precipitation regime, where rainfall occurs in short, intense outbursts separated by multi-day dry spells. However, it is unclear whether these oscillations operate on larger scales and how these oscillations, which represent “temporal” convective self-organization, would manifest in the presence of traditional “spatial” self- or forced-aggregation in large-domain convection-permitting simulations. Here we conduct radiative-convective-equilibrium simulations of different domain sizes and geometries under hothouse conditions. We find that the temporal oscillations cannot operate synchronously throughout a large domain (O 1000 km), as gravity waves cannot propagate fast enough to synchronize the entire domain. We propose a measure for the degree of domain synchronization and show that it decreases with domain size. We also show that even in the presence of tropical convective self-aggregation, the temporal oscillations dominate local spatial-temporal rainfall distribution. Finally, we demonstrate that even when an idealized large-scale overturning circulation is present, the oscillatory regime dominates the local rainfall distribution. These results could have important implications for extreme precipitation event under warming climate.
Pulmonary-pleural complications of pancreatitis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

OBJECTIVE. The authors investigated pulmonary-pleural complications of pancreatitis and evaluated results of CT examination in diagnostics and possibility of low invasive surgery in treatment of pancreaticogenic pleurisy. MATERIAL AND METHODS. A retrospective analysis was made of 156 medical histories of patients with acute pancreatitis and their results. An ultrasound examinations of the chest and CT scan were applied in order to determine lung tissue condition and presence of fluid in pleural cavities. RESULTS. The application of CT in diagnostics of pulmonary-pleural complications allowed doctors to identify an effusion in pleural cavities in 3,5-50 % patients with acute pancreatitis. The number and localization of effusions were defined more precisely. CONCLUSIONS. Mini-invasive procedures (puncture, videothoracoscopy) with examination of exudate on amylase activity and biopsy of pleura determined the causes of pleuritis. This was effective in pleritis elimination against a background of different methods of treatment of pancreatitis.
Contribution of bradykinin and nitric oxide to AT2receptor‐mediated differentiation in PC12 W cells

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Abstract We investigated the effect of angiotensin II on intracellular cyclic GMP content and neurite outgrowth as an indicator of cell differentiation in PC12 W cells. Neurite outgrowth was examined by phase‐contrast microscopy. Outgrown neurites were classified as small, medium and large, and were expressed as neurites per 100 cells. Angiotensin II (10 −7 m ) increased the outgrowth of medium and large neurites by mean ± SEM 20.2 ± 2.3 and 6.6 ± 1.4 compared with 1.66 ± 0.5 and 0.1 ± 0.06 neurites per 100 cells in control. Cellular cyclic GMP content increased by 50–250% with angiotensin II at concentrations of 10 −6 –10 −4 m . Both blockade of AT 2 receptors and of nitric oxide synthase markedly reduced angiotensin II‐induced neurite outgrowth and cyclic GMP production. In contrast, B 2 receptor blockade had no effect or even increased these angiotensin II effects. Sodium nitroprusside and 8‐bromo‐cyclic GMP both mimicked the effects of angiotensin II on cell differentiation. The protein kinase G inhibitor KT‐5823 inhibited the neurite outgrowth induced by both angiotensin II and 8‐bromo‐cyclic GMP. Our results demonstrate that angiotensin II can stimulate cell differentiation in PC12 W cells by nitric oxide‐related and cyclic GMP‐dependent mechanisms. The effects of angiotensin II on cell differentiation and cyclic GMP production were mediated via the AT 2 receptor and further enhanced by bradykinin B 2 receptor blockade.
Clinical characteristics affecting length of stay in patients with cellulitis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background This study aimed to profile the clinical characteristics of patients presenting to Middlemore Hospital with cellulitis in order to identify factors that are associated with an increased length of stay (LOS). Methods Retrospective clinical data were collected for all patients aged 18 and above who were admitted with cellulitis to Middlemore Hospital General Surgical Department between 1 January and 31 March 2014. Comorbidities, laboratory results and medical conditions were included in the investigation. Results The study included 201 patients. Significant factors associated with increased LOS include type 2 diabetes mellitus ( P < 0.012), obesity ( P < 0.001), raised C‐reactive protein ( P < 0.0001), raised white cell count ( P < 0.0001), raised temperature ( P < 0.0001), septic shock ( P < 0.003), multiorgan failure ( P < 0.01), extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamases or methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization ( P < 0.04) and intensive care unit admission ( P < 0.0004). Conclusion This single‐centre, retrospective clinical study has identified several factors that are significantly associated with an increased LOS. These factors provide a basis for future studies that may facilitate identification and timely medical optimization of high‐risk patients.
Functional morphology and light-gathering ability of podocopid ostracod eyes and the palaeontological implications

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The optical features of lateral ocelli of the eye were examined in 29 Recent species of the major ostracod group Podocopida using a theoretical morphological model. A cuticular lens-tapetum model was used for this purpose. Ray tracing was simulated on each model in order to assess the light-gathering abilities of the various forms of eyes. The results of computer simulations and morphospace analyses indicated that the light-gathering ability of the eye is dominantly affected by the thickness and curvature of the outer surface of the lens. On the basis of a combination of form and light-gathering ability, four eye types (LG1, LG2, MG, and HG) were recognized. The results of the phototactic experiment and the light intensity from each microhabitat were concordant with estimated scores on the light-gathering abilities using the theoretical models. Phylogenetic analyses and the fossil record indicate that the MG type is the most plesiomorphic, and that the other types derive from this. The present study also suggests that the optical structure that determines the light-gathering ability is closely related to the development of surface ornamentation on the valve.
Child- and Parent-Related Correlates of Total and Prolonged Sedentary Time in 5- to 6-Year-Old Children

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The primary aim was to examine child- and parent-related correlates of accelerometer-assessed overall total and prolonged (i.e., accumulated in bouts of ≥10 consecutive minutes) sedentary time (SED) in 5- to 6-year-old children. Second, child- and parent-related correlates of total and prolonged SED during weekend days and the after school period were examined, as associations with parent-related correlates may be stronger during these periods. SED and moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) were assessed by ActiGraph accelerometers in children (n = 836) and one of their parents/carers. Parents completed a questionnaire examining potential parent-related correlates. Multilevel models examined associations between potential correlates and children’s total and prolonged SED. Children’s MVPA was the only correlate that was consistently negatively associated with both total and prolonged SED across the different time periods (overall, after school, and weekend days). Higher total SED in parents was associated with higher overall total SED and weekend total SED in children. Higher body mass index z-scores of children were associated with lower overall total and prolonged SED. Girls had lower prolonged SED after school than boys. Older children had lower total SED during the weekend. In conclusion, few potential correlates were associated with young children’s total or prolonged SED and most associations differed by time period.

The State of Play with iPSCs and Spinal Cord Injury Models

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

The application of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technologies in cell based strategies, for the repair of the central nervous system (with particular focus on the spinal cord), is moving towards the potential use of clinical grade donor cells. The ability of iPSCs to generate donor neuronal, glial and astrocytic phenotypes for transplantation is highlighted here, and we review recent research using iPSCs in attempts to treat spinal cord injury in various animal models. Also discussed are issues relating to the production of clinical grade iPSCs, recent advances in transdifferentiation protocols for iPSC-derived donor cell populations, concerns about tumourogenicity, and whether iPSC technologies offer any advantages over previous donor cell candidates or tissues already in use as therapeutic tools in experimental spinal cord injury studies.
Communication network design using message flow simulation

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The determination of a near optimum cost-effective design for a large military communication network is a complex task. The detailed methods used in solving a particular network design problem will depend on the system requirements, the projected operational time frame, and on the time, money, and technical means available for its solution. Computer simulations of the operation of various possible networks under anticipated critical traffic loads and the determination thereby of the resulting message delay times and subsystem utilizations can be used to predict the performance of proposed designs and also to show how to modify them in order to maximize the cost-effectiveness of the ultimately realized operational network.
