#selberdenken.

2023

Soziale Medien stellen wichtige Bühnen für zeitgenössische Konflikte um Wissen und Wahrheit dar. Der Artikel widmet sich vor diesem Hintergrund dem Gebrauch des Hashtags #selberdenken auf Twitter. Mittels einer quantitativen Datenanalyse wird zunächst die Konjunktur der Verwendung des Hashtags nachgezeichnet. Eine anschließende hermeneutische Sequenzanalyse zeigt, wie in seinem Gebrauch ein Anspruch auf epistemische Autonomie zum Ausdruck gebracht wird: Allein die eigenen Erfahrungen, Interpretationen und Quellen gelten als vertrauenswürdig. Dies korrespondiert mit einem grundlegenden Misstrauen in die von den Massenmedien konstruierten Realitäten und einer Trivialisierung von Erkenntnispro…

Zintegrowane Inwestycje Terytorialne jako narzędzie wspierające kształtowanie centrów rozwoju regionalnego

Miejskie obszary funkcjonalne a kształtowanie spójności terytorialnej

2017

Bieżąca polityka regionalna ma za zadanie kształtować spójność terytorialną, a jedną z jej koncepcji jest funkcjonowanie miejskich obszarów funkcjonalnych. Spójność terytorialna rozumiana jest różnorako. W niniejszym opracowaniu rozpatrywano ją jako: rozwój endogeniczny i policentryczny, wyrównywanie dysproporcji w poziomie rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego, tworzenie powiązań sieciowych oraz zapewnienie dostępności do usług (głównie wiedzy i infrastruktury). Celem badań jest określenie związku między isto - tą i praktyką miejskich obszarów funkcjonalnych a kształtowaniem tak pojmowanej spójno - ści terytorialnej. Badania przeprowadzono w układzie regionalnym, na podstawie miejskich obszarów …

Mapping of Biomass Residues for Potential Energy Generation from the Wine-Growing Sector in the Provinces of Palermo and Trapani

2019

This paper is based on results obtained during the project Vienergy (Interreg Italia-Malta programme 2007-2013) and contains data on the potential energy generation of biomass residues following pruning from vineyards located within the provinces of Trapani and Palermo. Analysis of the energy potential, following microgasification tests and heat production related to the biomass, included a preliminary mapping of vineyards in the area and an assessment of the total biomass available. Vineyard mapping was carried out using remote-sensing technologies: images were acquired and analysed using Landsat satellite; spectroradiometric calibration then took place using various targets obtained from …

Activation of astroglial phospholipase D activity by phorbol ester involves ARF and Rho proteins.

2000

Primary cultures of rat cortical astrocytes express phospholipase D (PLD) isoforms 1 and 2 as determined by RT-PCR and Western blot. Basal PLD activity was strongly (10-fold) increased by 4beta-phorbol-12beta,13alpha-dibutyrate (PDB) (EC(50): 56 nM), an effect which was inhibited by Ro 31-8220 (0.1-1 microM), an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), and by brefeldin A (10-100 microg/ml), an inhibitor of ADP-ribosylating factor (ARF) activation. Pretreatment of the cultures with Clostridium difficile toxin B-10463 (0.1-1 ng/ml), which inactivates small G proteins of the Rho family, led to a breakdown of the astroglial cytoskeleton; concomitantly, PLD activation by PDB was reduced by up to 50%…

Inhibition of Rho modulates cytokine-induced prostaglandin E2 formation in renal mesangial cells.

2003

Stimulation of rat mesangial cells for 24 h with interleukin-1β(IL-1β) plus forskolin (Fk) leads to a marked increase in prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) synthesis. This effect is further enhanced by the small G-protein Rho inhibitor toxin A. A similar increase in PGE 2 formation is obtained with Y27632, a Rho-dependent kinase inhibitor, and with lovastatin, a hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A inhibitor which depletes cells from geranylgeranyl moieties and thus blocks Rho activation. In parallel to the increased PGE 2 synthesis, a potentiation of IL-1β-induced secretory group IIA phospholipases A 2 (sPLA 2 -IIA) protein expression also occurs by Rho inhibition. However, only toxin A triggers an in…

MECCANISMI DI DEFORMAZIONE IN ROCCE CARBONATICHE STRATIFICATE: IMPLICAZIONI PER LA CIRCOLAZIONE DEI GEOFLUIDI

2014

Nel presente lavoro è stata condotta un’analisi quali/quantitativa degli elementi strutturali che caratterizzano alcuni affioramenti carbonatici presenti nella zona di catena esterna della Sicilia occidentale (Monte Maranfusa e Montangna Grande), e nella zona di avampaese in Sicilia sud-orientale (Monti Iblei). Le proprietà petrofisiche delle rocce carbonatiche (porosità, permeabilità), sono strettamente legate all’evoluzione diagenetica di quest’ultime e cambiano in funzione della natura, dell’organizzazione e della forma degli elementi che le costituiscono (grani, pori, cemento, minerali, ecc.). Tali proprietà sono inoltre fortemente condizionate dalla natura delle discontinuità tettonich…

Further development of integrated threat theory and intergroup contact: a reply to Aberson (2015)

2016

ABSTRACTThis essay furthers a dialogue about the theoretical and statistical merits of Croucher's [(2013). Integrated threat theory and acceptance of immigrant assimilation: An analysis of Muslim immigration in Western Europe. Communication Monographs, 80, 46–62] study exploring the relationships between threat from an immigrant group, belief that an immigrant wants to assimilate, and intergroup contact. Key points of divergence include assertions that (a) the relationships in the original piece are counter to previous literature/relationships, (b) the correlations presented are implausible, (c) the magnitude of the relationships is too strong, and (d) the manuscript has “odd” multiple regr…

Western blot characterization of exosomes isolated from rat plasma and evaluation of the efficiency of a precipitation method in exosome isolation

2017

Eksosomit ovat halkaisijaltaan 40-100 nm kokoisia solunulkoisia vesikkeleitä, joita solut erittävät solunsisäisen multivesikulaarisen rakkulan yhdistyessä solukalvoon. Eksosomit ovat tärkeässä roolissa solujen välisessä viestinnässä, sillä ne kuljettavat monenlaisia biomolekyylejä, kuten useita eri RNA-tyyppejä, lipidejä ja proteiineja. Aivoissa eksosomit liittyvät neurodegeneratiivisiin sairauksiin, kuten Parkisonin tautiin, Alzheimerin tautiin ja aivovammaan. Eksosomit kykenevät läpäisemään veri-aivoesteen, ja tutkijat ovatkin esittäneet paljon kiinnostusta eksosomien mahdollisuuksiin uutena hoitokeinona. Lisäksi eksosomien kuljettamat molekyylit sisältävät tietoa eksosomit erittäneen sol…
