Keskustelu geenimuunnelluista elintarvikkeista : sanomalehtikirjoitukset Ulrich Beckin modernisaatioteorian näkökulmasta

2008

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tarkastella geenimuunnelluista elintarvikkeista käytävää sanomalehtikeskustelua. Aikaisemmissa tutkimuksissa geenimuuntelua käsittelevää keskustelua on tutkittu usein jakamalla keskustelijat kahteen vastakkaiseen leiriin, myönteisesti ja kielteisesti suhtautuviin. Näkökulma peittää alleen enemmän tai vähemmän mielipiteestään epävarmojen keskustelijoiden joukon ja vahvistaa entisestään käsitystä ongelman teknisestä luonteesta. Tässä tutkimuksessa esiin pääsevät myös rintamalinjojen väliin sijoittuvat keskustelijat, usein varovaisen myönteisesti, mutta peruskriittisesti asennoituvat kansalaiset. Tarkoituksena oli irtautua puolesta ja vastaan jaottelusta ja tarkaste…

Kotipoltto vs. tehdasviina : paloviinan koti- ja tehdaspolttoa koskeneet väittelyt 1800-luvun puolivälin suomenkielisessä lehdistössä

2014

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella paloviinan kotipolton kieltämistä koskenutta keskustelua suomenkielisessä sanomalehdistössä, liittyen vuoden 1863 säätyvaltiopäiviin, joilla asia oli käsittelyssä. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 38:sta kirjeestä, jotka julkaistiin lehdistössä kymmenen vuoden aikajaksolla ennen ja jälkeen valtiopäivien vuosina 1857–1867. Kirjeet olivat maaseutu- ja vähemmässä määrin kaupunkikirjeenvaihtajien kirjoittamia, ja niiden kirjoittajat edustivat eri säätyjä – talonpoikia, aatelisia, pappeja ja porvareita. Tutkimuskysymykseni oli kaksijakoinen: Lähdin tutkimaan millaisia ominaispiirteitä tai mahdollisia kaavamaisuuksia keskustelusta oli löydettävissä, ja mitä näide…

Dampness and student-reported social climate: two multilevel mediation models.

2021

Background Little previous research has analysed the relationship between schools' indoor air problems and schools' social climate. In this study, we analysed a) whether observed mould and dampness in a school building relates to students' perceptions of school climate (i.e. teacher-student relationships and class spirit) and b) whether reported subjective indoor air quality (IAQ) at the school level mediates this relationship. Methods The data analysed was created by merging two nationwide data sets: survey data from students, including information on subjective IAQ (N = 25,101 students), and data from schools, including information on mould and dampness in school buildings (N = 222). The …

A SUMOylation-defective MITF germline mutation predisposes to melanoma and renal carcinoma

2011

International audience; So far, no common environmental and/or phenotypic factor has been associated with melanoma and renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The known risk factors for melanoma include sun exposure, pigmentation and nevus phenotypes; risk factors associated with RCC include smoking, obesity and hypertension. A recent study of coexisting melanoma and RCC in the same patients supports a genetic predisposition underlying the association between these two cancers. The microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) has been proposed to act as a melanoma oncogene; it also stimulates the transcription of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF1A), the pathway of which is targeted by kidney canc…

Sexual dimorphism in the vertebral wedging of the human lumbar vertebrae and its importance as a comparative framework for understanding the wedging …

2020

Lumbar lordosis is a key element of the upright posture, being interpreted as a consequence of bipedal locomotion. There is consensus that the generic modern human pattern of metameric vertebral body wedging is sexually dimorphic in modern humans. However, recently published studies have compared this pattern with other hominins, such as Neanderthals. These tried to establish whether the (male) Neanderthal lumbar vertebrae express a pattern that falls within or outside the range of modern human males. In the present study, data collected by 3D landmarks of the lumbar vertebrae of modern humans from different geographic regions and Neanderthals (Ntotal = 505 individual vertebrae) are used to…

The assessment of skeletal status in young patients with Turner syndrome by 2 densitometric techniques: Phalangeal quantitative ultrasound and dual e…

2018

Background. Studies using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) demonstrate a reduction in bone mineral density (BMD) in children and adolescents with Turner syndrome (TS). However, these studies do not take into account changes in bone size, which influence BMD in the case of short-statured patients. Phalangeal quantitative ultrasound (phQUS) measurements have shown an ability to reveal changes due to skeletal growth, aging, and bone and mineral disorders. There is limited data on bone mineral status in girls with TS assessed by 2 different techniques, i.e., DXA and phQUS. Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential negative impact of TS on bone status and to assess…

Progestogens and risk of breast cancer: a link between bone and breast?

2015

This article reviews the data supporting the role of receptor activator of the nuclear factor kappa (RANK) and its ligand, RANKL, in progestogen-induced breast cancer. Both experimental and clinical studies have been included. The expression of both RANK and RANKL has been described in epithelial cells of both mice and humans. Experiments of gain and loss of function in mice have shown that RANK/RANKL mediate alveologenesis during pregnancy or the estrous cycle. Moreover, the participation of the RANK/RANKL has been detected in models of breast carcinogenesis associated with progestogens-like medroxyprogesterone acetate. Recent clinical studies have found that the expression of RANK is asso…

Anti-senescence and Anti-inflammatory Effects of the C-terminal Moiety of PTHrP Peptides in OA Osteoblasts.

2016

Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degenerative changes in the whole joint leading to physical disability in the elderly population. This condition is associated with altered bone metabolism in subchondral areas suggesting that therapeutic strategies aimed at modifying bone cell metabolism may be of interest. We have investigated the effects of several parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP)-derived peptides (1-37): (N-terminal), (107-111) and (107-139) (C-terminal) on senescence features induced by inflammatory stress in human OA osteoblasts. Incubation of these primary cells with interleukin(IL)-1β led to an increased expression of senescence markers senescence-associated-β-galac…
