Storage Characteristics of Fish Sauce Prepared from Silver Bellies ( Leiognathus spp ) Using Plant Enzyme

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The annual marine fish production in India is increased from 2.83 million tonnes in 1998-1999 to 612641 tonnes in 2006-2007. Apart from the increase in the production of commercially important fishes, there has been considerable increase in the by catch also. The low value by catch landed along the Indian coast was contributed mainly by juvenile sciaenid, silver bellies, thread fin bream etc.
EFFECTS OF SURKHI ON GSB LAYER OF FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

With the increasing demand of materials for road construction, the need has arisen to explore various alternatives to the conventional materials. Surkhi is a form of brick dust and has been collected from local brick kilns at nominal cost. The study tries to investigate whether locally available Surkhi can be used in road construction in the granular sub base (GSB) layer or not. The study has been conducted on four types of GSB trial mixes formed by partially and completely replacing the stone dust content with that of Surkhi. The proportion of Surkhi varies from 0 to 25% by weight of total mix in these GSB mixes. The study evaluates gradation and plasticity of fine aggregates used and OMC, MDD and CBR of various GSB mixes. The MDD is found to increase with increase in proportion of surkhi from 0 to 10% after which it decreases. The maximum MDD is found to be for GSB mix with 10% surkhi and 15% stone dust. The findings of the test results of the four GSB mixes indicate that they meet the requirements of MORTH in terms of gradation, CBR, and plasticity. Therefore, these combinations are suitable for utilization in the GSB construction of road works. The incorporation of locally available Surkhi in the construction of GSB layer of flexible pavement not only leads to cost-effectiveness in road projects but also reduces environmental degradation by decreasing pollution from mining and consumption of energy in the quarrying of sand/stone dust.
Building Students' Historical Literacies

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

How can teachers incorporate the richness of historical resources into classrooms in ways that are true to the discipline of history and are pedagogically sound? This book explores the notion of historical literacy, adopts a research-supported stance on literacy processes, and promotes the integration of content-area literacy instruction into history content teaching. It is unique in its focus on the discipline-specific literacies of historical inquiry. Addressing literacy from a historian's rather than a a literacy specialist's point of view, this book surveys a broad range of texts including those that historians and non-historians both use and produce in understanding history; and includes a wide variety of practical instructional strategies immediately available to teachers. History teachers who read this book will receive the practical tools they need in order to help their students reach the national standards for history teaching. With the recent inclusion of a historical literacy component of the English Language Arts Common Core Standards Initiative, this book is also highly relevant to English, language arts, and reading teachers, who are expected, under the new guidelines, to engage their students in historical reading and writing.

Impact of ductal stenting on pulmonary artery reconstruction in patients with duct-dependent congenital heart diseases—an institutional experience

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract OBJECTIVES This study aims to review our institutional experience of ductal stenting (DS) on the growth of pulmonary arteries (PAs) and surgical outcomes of PA reconstruction in this subset of patients. METHODS This is a retrospective study done in neonates and infants up to 3 months of age with duct-dependent pulmonary circulation who underwent DS from January 2014 to December 2015. Post-stenting PA growth, surgical outcomes of PA reconstruction, post-surgical re-interventions, morbidity and mortality were analysed. RESULTS During the study period, 46 patients underwent successful DS, of whom 38 underwent presurgery catheterization and definite surgery. There was significant growth of PAs in these patients. Biventricular repair was done in 31 patients while 7 had univentricular palliation. Left PA augmentation was required in 13 patients, and 10 required central PA augmentation during surgery. The mean follow-up period post-surgery was 4.5 ± 1.5 years. No significant postoperative complications were seen. No early or follow-up post-surgery mortality was seen. Four patients required re-interventions in the form of left PA stenting based on the echocardiography or computed tomography evidence of significant stenosis. CONCLUSIONS DS provides good short-term palliation and the growth of PAs. However, a significant number of stented patients require reparative procedure on PAs at the time of surgical intervention. Acquired changes in the PAs following DS may be the reason for reintervention following PA reconstruction.
[Properties of Na+/HCO3-(Cl-)-stimulated ATPase in rabbit small intestinal mucosa].

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

It has been demonstrated that histamine induces in rabbit small intestine an ATPase activity which is stimulated by NaCl or NaHCO3. The Na+/HCO3- (C1-)-stimulated ATPase activity, unlike the Mg2+,HCO3(-)-ATPase activity, has a pH optimum at pH 6.2, is inhibited by ethacrynic acid (10(-4) M) and bivalent metal ions (but not 10(-2) M thiocyanate). The substrate specificity of Na+/HCO3- (C1-)-ATPase and its regulation by Ca2+ ions has been studied. The feasible role of the enzyme in secretion is discussed.
Lymphotoxin alpha functional germline genetic variant: A future prognostic factor in colorectal cancer?

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Lymphotoxin alpha (LTa) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine expressed by inflammatory cells with a role in the regulation of tumor microenvironment (TM). A putatively functional genetic polymorphism in LTA, at locus +80 (Thr26Asn, rs1041981), has been associated with altered expression of LTa. Here, we sought to evaluate whether this polymorphism associates with 2 main endpoints (progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS)) in colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in 166 CRC patients from a single tertiary hospital. Whole blood was used to isolate genomic DNA. Genotyping of LTA +80 C > A was performed through real time-PCR allelic discrimination using specific Taqman probes, and confirmed by sequencing. Retrospective data and long-term outcomes were reviewed. Age and gender-adjusted logistic regression analyses were undertaken. Analyses were conducted after stratification by baseline lymphocyte count (LC) (LC < 1x103/µL vs > 1x103/µL). Kaplan-Meier curves with Log-Rank test were used. Subsequent multivariate Cox regression proportional hazards models were calculated (P for retention > 0.1). Results: Participants' median age was 65.9 (IR, 57.5-74.3) years, the majority were males (63%), and 58% with colon cancer. At diagnosis, 45,2% were stage III and 18,1% stage IV. The median follow up time was approximately 4 years (IQR, 25.5-67.0 months). We found a significant association in carriers of the A-allele to have lower LC on linear trend analysis (P for trend = 0.013). Multivariate comparisons between LTA genotypes of additive model showed an independent protective effect for heterozygous compared with C-homozygous in the association with disease progression (HR = 0.5, 95CI = 0.3-0.97, P = 0.041), only in subjects with baseline LC > 1x103/µL. In this group, a significant independent protective effect for all-cause mortality was observed in A-carriers (HR = 0.4, 95CI = 0.1-0.97, P = 0.042). Conclusions: This LTA genetic variant in subjects with baseline LC > 1x103/µL is associated with PFS and OS in CRC. The understanding of the impact of this polymorphisms on the evolution of the disease can bring us new information on TM regulation. Legal entity responsible for the study: Ricardo Ribeiro.

Trichomonas vaginalis As a Cause of Urethritis in Malawian Men

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background and Objectives: Trichomonas vaginalisis one of the most common sexually transmitted infections. In Malawi, rates of trichomoniasis in women are high. The prevalence ofT. vaginalisinfection in men is expected to be high but has not previously been documented. Goals: We sought to determine the prevalence of trichomoniasis in Malawian men with and without urethritis, to evaluate a polymerase chain reaction detection assay forT. vaginalisin urethral swabs and to examine the effect ofT. vaginalisinfection on excretion of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in semen. Study Design: Men presenting at the Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) and Dermatology Clinics in Malawi were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. We compared a polymerase chain reaction-based test forT. vaginalisdetection with wet-mount microscopy and culture of urethral swabs. HIV serology was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and HIV-1 RNA concentrations in semen were measured by quantitative nucleic acid sequence-based analysis. Results: T. vaginaliswas detected in 51 of 293 men. The estimated prevalence among symptomatic men was 20.8% and among asymptomatic men, 12.2%. Polymerase chain reaction performed with a sensitivity of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.66-0.92) and specificity of 0.95 (95% CI: 0.91-0.97) compared to wet-mount microscopy and culture. There was no difference in the rate of HIV seropositivity in men with and withoutT. vaginalisinfection. However, in men with symptomatic urethritis, the median HIV RNA concentration in seminal plasma from men withT. vaginaliswas significantly higher that in seminal plasma from HIV-positive men without trichomonas.

Toxic Secondary Metabolite Production in Genetically Modified Potatoes in Response to Stress

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Potatoes produce a number of toxic secondary metabolites, which are divided into two groups: the sesquiterpenes and the glycoalkaloids (PGAs): whereas PGAs are largely preformed and present in toxic quantities in both the foliage and "green" potatoes, it is well documented that the levels of PGAs and sesquiterpenes are effected by many biotic an abiotic stresses. The development of genetically modified potato varieties has made it prudent to ascertain whether there may be changes in the amounts or types of these secondary metabolites either as a direct effect of the transgene or due to its interactions with environmental variables. Transgenic potato lines were exposed, along with nontransgenic lines, to a range of biotic and abiotic stresses and a range of environmental conditions in the field and store. Following stressing, a comparison was made of levels of potato glycoalkaloid and sesquiterpene levels between the two groups. Significant differences were observed in the levels of both glycoalkaloid and sesquiterpene levels between transgenic and control material and between infected and noninfected material.
THE MATRIX EFFECT OF TUNA AND MAHI-MAHI ON BIOGENIC AMINE DETECTION

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Methodof standard addition (MSA) is used to account for and quantify matrix effect.In this study, MSA was used to analyze the matrix effect of mahi-mahi and tunain respect to biogenic amine detection. Two different detection methods wereused in conjunction with the MSA procedure: a colorimetric strip that detectsvolatile biogenic amines and a histamine-specific ELISA (enzyme-linkedimmunosorbant assay), which detects histamine in the liquid phase. Trainedsensory experts were utilized to grade mahi-mahi and tuna. The grading systemacted as a measure of fish quality. A biogenic amine cocktail was created toact as the standard spike for the MSA procedure. It contained histamine andother biogenic amine compounds of varying volatility that are present innature. The ELISA-MSA showed a clear correlation between increase in histamineand a lower quality sample (higher numerical grade). The colorimetric stripsdid not have a clear correlation between biogenic amine content and grade.Comparing the two methods demonstrates that the matrix effect of the tuna andmahi-mahi is likely more prominent with gas phase compounds than liquid phasecompounds.
STAT3 Activity and Function in Cancer: Modulation by STAT5 and miR-146b

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

The transcription factor STAT3 regulates genes that control critical cellular processes such as proliferation, survival, pluripotency, and motility. Thus, under physiological conditions, the transcriptional function of STAT3 is tightly regulated as one part of a complex signaling matrix. When these processes are subverted through mutation or epigenetic events, STAT3 becomes highly active and drives elevated expression of genes underlying these phenotypes, leading to malignant cellular behavior. However, even in the presence of activated STAT3, other cellular modulators can have a major impact on the biological properties of a cancer cell, which is reflected in the clinical behavior of a tumor. Recent evidence has suggested that two such key modulators are the activation status of other STAT family members, particularly STAT5, and the expression of STAT3-regulated genes that are part of negative feedback circuits, including microRNAs such as miR-146b. With attention to these newly emerging areas, we will gain greater insight into the consequence of STAT3 activation in the biology of human cancers. In addition, understanding these subtleties of STAT3 signaling in cancer pathogenesis will allow the development of more rational molecular approaches to cancer therapy.

Marriage Penalty: Unconditional Quantile Regression of Housework Participation in Japan

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

We analyze cross-sectional time-use diaries from the 2011 and 2016 Survey on Time Use and Leisure Activities (Shakai Seikatsu Kihon Chosa) to investigate the association between educational level and housework participation at different quantiles. Using the unconditional quantile regression method, we test whether education is associated with less time spent on housework as the previous research on highly educated people suggests. We find that this hypothesis stands only for non-married Japanese women. On the other hand, among married Japanese women, especially those without children in higher deciles of housework participation, are more likely to increase their participation in housework with the increase in their educational level. The results suggest that in Japan, the institute of marriage places higher expectations on women’s housework participation on married women with higher levels of education.
Writing Self and Writing Lives: Shen Shanbao's (1808-1862) Gendered Auto/Biographical Practices

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract This study examines the dual strategies of auto/biographical production in the immensely rich corpus of writings by the nineteenth-century woman literata Shen Shanbao recently rediscovered by the author in rare book collections in China. The focus of the analysis is on the conditions of production of self-writing, including the processes of textual organization, genre manipulation, and self-editing. The study demonstrates an exemplary instance of gendered intervention in late imperial China that attempts to change the terms of writing practices and generic conventions to accommodate the desire to write the gendered self and gendered subjects into history.
