Comparative analysis of short tandem repeats and single nucleotide polymorphisms on the Y-chromosome in Germans, Chinese and Thais.
2003
We have typed genomic DNA samples from 95 individuals from Western Germany, 78 individuals from Bangkok/Thailand and 56 individuals from Chengdu/China for 11 Y-chromosomal diallelic polymorphisms and eight short tandem repeat (STR) systems. For single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis, a rapid method was applied using the single base extension technology (minisequencing) in combination with capillary electrophoresis. PCR products for SRY-8299, Tat, SRY2627, 92R7, SRY1532, M9, M13, M17/M19 and M20 were pooled and used as templates for the commercially available SNaPshot kit. In addition to these ten SNPs we also tested the Y-chromosomal diallelic Alu repeat insertion DYS287 (YAP) by aga…
Los efectos de la adversidad climática y sanitaria sobre la agricultura y la sociedad castellonense del siglo XVIII
2017
El presente artículo recurre a la microhistoria para analizar los archivos municipales de la Plana de Castelló, con el objetivo de obtener nuevas referencias sobre la evolución climática de la fachada mediterránea peninsular durante un periodo cronológico concreto: el siglo XVIII, enclavado en los estadios finales de la Pequeña Edad de Hielo. Con esta finalidad, se abordarán las principales sequías, precipitaciones extremas, plagas y epidemias acontecidas en la Plana de Castelló durante el Setecientos, y aquellos recursos, tanto religiosos como seculares, utilizados para prevenir, primero, y erradicar, después, las adversidades climáticas, biológicas y sanitarias. This paper discusses a mic…
Traditionally used Thai medicinal plants: in vitro anti-inflammatory, anticancer and antioxidant activities.
2009
In order to assess traditional Thai claims about the therapeutic potential of medicinal plants and to select plants for future phytochemical research, nine plant species with anti-inflammatory uses were selected from Thai textbooks and assessed for their in vitro anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative and antioxidant activities.Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) inhibitory effects in stably transfected HeLa cells were determined by luciferase assay, and effects on LPS-induced pro-inflammatory mediators prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1beta, and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)alpha in primary monocytes were assessed by ELISA. Cytotoxic activities were examined against HeLa cells, h…
Heavy metals in coastal water systems. A case study from the northwestern Gulf of Thailand.
2005
A geochemical survey of the northwestern part of the Thailand Gulf (Inner Gulf) was carried out in order to define concentrations and distribution patterns of selected heavy metals (V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, and U) in the coastal system and estuarine area of the Mae Klong river. The results indicate the presence of two different sources of heavy metals in the studied environment and allowed us to identify a lithogenic component that significantly influences the composition of coastal waters and suspended particulate matter (SPM). Comparison of the normalized heavy metals concentrations both in the studied samples and in those reported for the Sn–W ores present in the surrounding areas suggests…
Taxonomic review of the fungal-inhabiting plant bug genera Bothriomiris and Dashymenia (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Cylapinae: Bothriomirini), w…
2016
The two closely related and frequently confused genera of the fungal-inhabiting plant bug subfamily Cylapinae, Bothriomiris Kirkaldy, 1902 and Dashymenia Poppius, 1910 are redefined and reviewed. Two new species of Dashymenia, D. artchawakomi, new species and D. gorczycai, new species, are described from Thailand. Bothriomiris capillosus Yasunaga, 2000 and B. yakushima Yasunaga & Miyamoto, 2012 are transferred to the genus Dashymenia Poppius, and a revised key to the two genera is provided. Color habitus images of the adults are given for Dashymenia artchawakomi, D. capillosa, and D. gorczycai. The male genitalic structures of the following species are illustrated: Bothriomiris ernsti Yasun…

Celebrity practice in networked media : a case study of Lady Gaga and Twitter
2014
Tutkielman tarkoitus oli selvittää, millä tavoin poplaulaja Lady Gaga käyttää yhteisö- ja mikroblogipalvelu Twitteriä aktiiviseen julkisuuden harjoittamiseen. Aineisto koostui 207 Lady Gagan julkaisemasta tweetistä eli mikroblogimerkinnästä, jotka kerättiin Twitteristä valitsemalla satunnainen kahden kuukauden mittainen ajanjakso, joka oli tässä tapauksessa marras-joulukuu 2012. Tutkielman tavoite oli tutkia, mihin tarkoituksiin Lady Gaga käyttää Twitteriä, eli mitä eri funktioita hänen julkisuuden harjoittamisensa toteuttaa. Toisena tavoitteena oli selvittää, millaisia keinoja Lady Gaga käyttää näiden funktioiden toteuttamisessa, ja mitkä ovat hänelle tyypillisiä piirteitä julkisuuden harj…

The HLA system and leprosy in Thailand
1978
To investigate immunogenetics of leprosy, 205 leprosy patients (26 with tuberculoid, 57 with borderline-tuberculoid, 21 with borderline, 31 with borderline-lepromatous, and 70 with lepromatous leprosy) have been typed for HLA antigens, and compared with 183 healthy controls from the same region (Northern Thailand). There was no significant difference between the overall group of leprosy patients or the three borderline classes and the controls. The two polar forms, tuberculoid and lepromatous leprosy, however, showed significant associations: HLA-A2 is decreased and HLA-Bw17 is increased in tuberculoid leprosy; HLA-B7 is increased in lepromatous leprosy. When both polar forms are compared w…
