A radiosensitizing effect of artesunate in glioblastoma cells is associated with a diminished expression of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein surviv…

2011

Abstract Background and purpose Novel strategies to overcome an irradiation resistant phenotype may help to increase therapeutic efficacy in glioblastoma multiforme. The present study aimed to elucidate radiation sensitizing properties of artesunate, a semi synthetic derivate of artemisinin and to assess factors involved in this effect. Materials and methods LN229 and U87MG cells were treated with various concentrations of artesunate and radiation response was determined by a colony forming assay. Cell numbers, apoptosis induction, cell cycle distribution, and DNA repair following combined modality treatment were monitored by MTT-, caspase 3/7 assay, cytofluorometry, and γ-H2AX foci formati…

Priority areas for the conservation of Atlantic forest large mammals

2009

Large mammal faunas in tropical forest landscapes are widely affected by habitat fragmentation and hunting, yet the environmental determinants of their patterns of abundance remain poorly understood at large spatial scales. We analysed population abundance and biomass of 31 species of medium to large-bodied mammal species at 38 Atlantic forest sites (including three islands, 26 forest fragments and six continuous forest sites) as related to forest type, level of hunting pressure and forest fragment size using ANCOVAs. We also derived a novel measure of mammal conservation importance for each site based on a "Mammalian Conservation Priority index" (MPi) which incorporates information on spec…

Plant-animal seed dispersal interactions as key drivers of ecological restoration in a changing world

2022

Many global and European commitments state the need to plant billions of trees and restore millions of hectares of degraded ecosystems to contrast biodiversity loss, desertification and climate change. Seed dispersal is a crucial process promoting vegetation dynamics, and in the Mediterranean, up to 65% of woody plant species need animals for seed dispersal. Therefore, such mutualistic ecological interaction represents a key nature-based solution to help us reaching our commitments. In this presentation first we will report the strong expansion rate and correlated finescale spatio-temporal patterns of woody natural regeneration over a pastureland, using a spatially-explicit framework deploy…

A Proposal to estimate the roaming–dog Total in an urban area through a PPSWOR spatial sampling with sample size greater than two

2018

Settore SECS-S/05 - Statistica SocialeDogs roaming in urban areas constitute an issue for public order hygiene and health. Proper planning of actions for health and security control and allocation of financial funds require the knowledge of the roaming–dog–population size in a given urban area. Unfortunately a reliable statistical procedure aimed to measure such population is not available yet in literature. This paper presents a simple reproducible survey sampling procedure to estimate the number of roaming dogs in an urban area through the description of a real study carried out on a restricted area of the city of Palermo in southern Italy. A sample of areas is drawn by means of a drawn–by–drawn spatial sampling with probabilities proportional to size and without replacement (PPSWOR). As inclusion probabilities are not available in closed form they are estimated by Monte Carlo approach which is of simple implementation and permits design–based variance estimation even when first–order inclusion probabilities are unknown.

Jauniešu līdzdalība lēmumu pieņemšanā – skolēnu pašpārvaldes

2021

Bakalaura darba tēma ir “Jauniešu līdzdalība lēmumu pieņemšanā – skolēnu pašpārvaldes”, darba mērķis – novērtēt skolēnu pašpārvaldes kā instrumentu līdzdalības lēmumu pieņemšanā veicināšanai, izpētes jautājums – kā skolēnu pašpārvaldes izglītības iestādēs veicina jauniešu līdzdalību lēmumu pieņemšanā? Attiecīgi, darbā tiek izvirzīta hipotēze: skolēnu pašpārvaldes izglītības iestādēs atveido demokrātiska organisma modeli un sekmē jauniešu līdzdalību lēmumu pieņemšanā. Bakalaura darba 1. nodaļā tiek aplūkoti dažādi veidi, kā un pēc kādiem kritērijiem mērīt sabiedrības līdzdalību, par darba teorētisko ietvaru izvēlot autora Gerija Stokera (Gerry Stoker) “CLEAR” modeli. Bakalaura darba secīgās …

Komēdijas žanra tradīcija Teokrita idillēs

2015

Hellēnisma laikā veidojās jauns žanrs - literārā bukolika. Tas ir hellēnisma laiks, kad viena no galvenajām literatūras tendencēm ir tieksme pēc oriģinalitātes, no kā izriet novitāšu meklējumi, it sevišķi senu žanru un senu tēmu neierasts pasniegums. Dzejnieks Teokrits izvēlas savu ceļu, apvienojot senu folkloras žanru – folkloristisko bukoliku – ar nesen radušos literatūras žanru – jaunatisko komēdiju. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir saskatīt jaunatiskās komēdijas ietekmi Teokrita bukolikās, aizgūtos tēlus un motīvus. Darba gaitā svarīgi būs apskatīt aspektus, kā komēdijas žanrs sasaucas ar Teokrita idillēm, kas kopīgs. Bakalaura darbs ir veidots no trīs nodaļām. Pirmajā nodaļā skatīts dzejnieks…
