Indomethacin blocks the increased conditioned rewarding effects of cocaine induced by repeated social defeat
2018
It is well established that repeated social defeat stress can induce negative long-term consequences such as increased anxiety-like behavior and enhances the reinforcing effect of psychostimulants in rodents. In the current study, we evaluated how the immune system may play a role in these long-term effects of stress. A total of 148 OF1 mice were divided into different experimental groups according to stress condition (exploration or social defeat) and pre-treatment (saline, 5 or 10 mg/kg of the anti-inflammatory indomethacin) before each social defeat or exploration episode. Three weeks after the last social defeat, anxiety was evaluated using an elevated plus maze paradigm. After this tes…
The Italian law on body donation: A position paper of the Italian College of Anatomists
2021
In Italy, recent legislation (Law No. 10/2020) has tuned regulations concerning the donation of one's postmortem body and tissues for study, training, and scientific research purposes. This study discusses several specific issues to optimise the applicability and effectiveness of such an important, novel regulatory setting. Some of these unsolved issues may involve the grantees of teaching and training activities, the role of academic anatomical institutes, the role of family members in the donation process, the universal time limit indicated for any donation, the handling of corpses, and the limited body donation and its subordination to the donation of organs and tissues. Critical issues …
Denboratik kausara: -nez gero kausazko lokailuaren garapenaz
2019
LABURPENA Lan honetan -nez gero atzizki multzoaren garapena dugu aztergai, lehen testuetatik hasi eta gaurdaino. Denbora lokailuetatik sortu diren beste kausazko lokailu asko bezala, -nez gero batez ere mintza-ekintzak eta antzekoak justifikatzeko erabiltzen da. Hala ere, kausa neutroagoak adierazteko ere erabiltzen da. Gaztelaniaz ez bezala, menpeko perpausaren kokagunea ez da aldatu azken mendeotan eta funtzio informatiboan ere ez dugu aldakuntza handirik ikusten. Sumatzen dugun garapen nagusia da beharbada edukizko kausazko neutroetan maizago erabiltzeko joera. Oro har, -nez gero kausazko menderagailuak, gazt. ya que-rekin baino, antz handiagoa du fr. puisque eta ing. since lokailuekin. …
Derechos sociales y deuda. Entre capitalismo y economía de mercado. || Social rights and debt. Between capitalism and market economy
2018
Resumen: Las finanzas pueden servir a los derechos sociales en una economía de mercado, porque en ella están subordinadas a la economía real, y tienen carácter limitado, pero no en el capitalismo porque en él las finanzas son autorreferenciales, no tienen término, y conducen a una sociedad indefinidamente endeudada, en la que las deudas son impagables. 
 
 Abstract: Finance can be useful for social rights in a market economy. This is due to the fact of the subordination of finance to real economy and due to its limited character. In contrast, finance in a capitalist economy is self-referential, are boundless and lead to a society in which debts are unpayable.
Teachers bullied by students: forms of bullying and perpetrator characteristics.
2012
The focus of this study is on the forms in which the bullying of school teachers by students manifests itself, the characteristics of the students who engage in the bullying, and the manner in which the students who engage in bullying behave in their own peer relationships. The data was gathered from primary and lower secondary school teachers by means of an Internet survey. The answers of 70 teachers who had experienced bullying by their students are examined.The teachers had been exposed to different forms of bullying by students. They had typically been bullied by male students. In most cases, the bullying had been perpetrated by an individual student or a small group of students. Accord…
Logika algorytmów w świecie pracy ery technologicznej - nowe możliwości i nowe ograniczenia
2022
Uprawnienia kierownicze pracodawcy wynikające z przepisów prawa pracy są innej natury niż te kształtowane przez technologię, lokują one działanie kierownictwa pracodawcy w zupełnie innym obszarze niż technologia — w relacjach międzyludzkich, a nie w danych, w poleceniach, a nie w sygnałach, w odnoszeniu się do sposobów bycia jednostki, a nie do sprzężeń zwrotnych, do jej sumienności i staranności, a nie do nastawiania jej na wykorzystywanie. Kierownictwo technologiczne ma inne środki wyrazu, inną metodykę działania, inną skalę przymusu i porządku, jest inaczej zabezpieczane, nie zna granic, które stawia się kierownictwu normatywnemu. Technologia pozwala na zmianę paradygmatu kierownictwa dz…
Perpetuating Anti-Muslim Discrimination through the Interpretation of Religious Equality in the European Court of Human Rights
2018
AbstractFaced with widespread prejudice and discrimination, European Muslims are increasingly resorting to the European Court of Human Rights as a last-ditch strategy to transform state policies toward minority faiths. While the Court has a mandate to protect religious freedom and equality, the conservative and sometimes biased way in which it has interpreted these concepts has enabled the persistence of stark asymmetries in the legal and social statuses of different religions. Using an analysis of relevant cases, this article seeks to highlight the judicial processes that currently sustain Muslim subordination and pinpoint specific reforms that could reverse the trend.
The red tooth hypothesis: A computational model of predator-prey relations, protean escape behavior and sexual reproduction
2009
This paper presents an extension of the Red Queen Hypothesis (hereafter, RQH) that we call the Red Tooth Hypothesis (RTH). This hypothesis suggests that predator-prey relations may play a role in the maintenance of sexual reproduction in many higher animals. RTH is based on an interaction between learning on the part of predators and evolution on the part of prey. We present a simple predator-prey computer simulation that illustrates the effects of this interaction. This simulation suggests that the optimal escape strategy from the prey's standpoint would be to have a small number of highly reflexive, largely innate (and, therefore, very fast) escape patterns, but that would also be unlearn…
Biogenic amine levels, reproduction and social dominance in the queenless ant Streblognathus peetersi
2006
Social harmony often relies on ritualized dominance interactions between society members, particularly in queenless ant societies, where colony members do not have developmentally predetermined castes but have to fight for their status in the reproductive and work hierarchy. In this behavioural plasticity, their social organisation resembles more that of vertebrates than that of the "classic" social insects. The present study investigates the neurochemistry of the queenless ant species, Streblognathus peetersi, to better understand the neural basis of the high behavioural plasticity observed in queenless ants. We report measurements of brain biogenic amines [octopamine, dopamine, serotonin]…
Effects of several degrees of chronic social defeat stress on emotional and spatial memory in CD1 mice
2015
In the present study, the effects of several degrees of CSDS (Chronic Social Defeat Stress) on emotional and spatial memory in mice were evaluated in separate experiments. Male CD1 mice were randomly assigned to four experimental groups (n=10-12) for each experiment: NS (non-stressed), S5, S10 and S20 (5, 10 and 20 sessions of CSDS, respectively). The S groups underwent the corresponding number of agonistic encounters (10min each) over a 20-day period. 24h after the last session of CSDS, mice performed the inhibitory avoidance (Experiment 1) or the Morris water maze test (Experiment 2). In both experiments, animals were also evaluated in the elevated plus maze for 5min to obtain complementa…
