About Supergraphs. Part III
2019
Summary The previous articles [5] and [6] introduced formalizations of the step-by-step operations we use to construct finite graphs by hand. That implicitly showed that any finite graph can be constructed from the trivial edgeless graph K 1 by applying a finite sequence of these basic operations. In this article that claim is proven explicitly with Mizar[4].
Moral and Civic Education. The New School’s Contribution
2014
Our aim is to establish a reflexive analysis about the way in which the New Education’s movement understands morality and the way it is meant to be taught, as well as its particular entail with civic education. We offer a synthesis of the investigation, which has its base on some not vey spread primary sources of authors and institutional organs of the movement. With it we clarify the meaning and the ways through which pedagogical currents shaped, in the beginning of the 20th century, a new way of conceiving the practice of these formative areas. We also identify the perspectives of methodological renovation that in this moment arose. These contributions, the result of which are summarized …
Nueva lectura e interpretación de una inscripción latina de Villapando (Zamora)
2012
It is about the sepulchral inscription that a slave wet-nurse, identified as Amma Noua, dedicated to her master’s prematurely dead two daughters (duas dominas), who were raised (edocauit) by her together with their contubernalis (cum suo pare), nursing them with the same milk (uno lacte); that makes us guess that they were twins. Amma can be understood either as a proper name or as common noun indicating the wet-nurse’s job.
The Binomial “Inflammation-Epigenetics” in Breast Cancer Progression and Bone Metastasis: IL-1β Actions Are Influenced by TET Inhibitor in MCF-7 Cell…
2022
The existence of a tight relationship between inflammation and epigenetics that in primary breast tumor cells can lead to tumor progression and the formation of bone metastases was investigated. It was highlighted how the induction of tumor progression and bone metastasis by Interleukin-1 beta, in a non-metastatic breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, was dependent on the de-methylating actions of ten-eleven translocation proteins (TETs). In fact, the inhibition of their activity by the Bobcat339 molecule, an inhibitor of TET enzymes, determined on the one hand, the modulation of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process, and on the other hand, the reduction in the expression of markers of bo…
Physicochemical characterization of the fifth (C5), sixth (C6), seventh (C7), eighth (C8) and ninth (C9) component of guinea pig complement.
1971
A physicochemical characterization of the purified guinea pig complement components C5 to C9 is given. For this purpose the sedimentation rate, the diffusion coefficient, the molecular weight and the isoelectric point were determined and compared with the values already known for the guinea pig and human complement system. For the determination of the physicochemical parameters gel filtration on Sephadex G-200, ultracentrifugation applying a sucrose density gradient and thin-layer isoelectric focusing were used. By comparing the values of the human and guinea pig complement a remarkable similarity is shown.
Quantitative contributions of IgG, IgM and C3 to erythrophagocytosis and rosette formation by peritoneal macrophages, and anti-opsonin activity of de…
1976
In vitro phagocytosis by guinea pig peritoneal macrophages of immune complexes (EA) was shown to be dependent on IgG antibody in a dose-dependent fashion. C3b enhanced phagocytosis of EA at limited IgG antibody concentrations only. When IgM antibody was used for sensitization of sheep red blood cells (SRBC), phagocytosis and rosette formation did not occur in the absence of bound C3. The polyanion, dextran sulfate 500 (DS), was shown to depress both rosette formation and phagocytosis of EAIgG, C1423 and EAIgMC1423, as well as immune adherence of human group 0 erythrocytes and hemolytic activity of C3. This effect of DS was seen only when it was actually present in the incubation medium.
Role of β1H for the binding of C3b-coated particles to human lymphoid and phagocytic cells
1981
Coating of EAC14oxy23b with highly purified human serum beta 1H globulin (beta 1H) led to acceleration of rosette formation with human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), tonsil lymphocytes, B lymphoblastoid (Raji) cells, granulocytes and monocytes. This reaction was discernible from C3bi-dependent rosette formation. Enhancement of rosette formation of C3b cells by beta 1H was most effective at limiting amounts of C3 per EAC14oxy23b. The beta 1H effect was not due to trace contamination with C3b inactivator. beta 1H-dependent rosette formation with the various lymphoid and phagocytic cells could be suppressed by the F(ab')2 fragment of anti-beta 1H suggesting beta 1H-mediated binding of bet…

Temporal relationship between genetic and warning signal variation in the aposematic wood tiger moth (Parasemia plantaginis).
2013
Many plants and animals advertise unpalatability through warning signals in the form of colour and shape. Variation in warning signals within local populations is not expected because they are subject to directional selection. However, mounting evidence of warning signal variation within local populations suggests that other selective forces may be acting. Moreover, different selective pressures may act on the individual components of a warning signal. At present, we have a limited understanding about how multiple selection processes operate simultaneously on warning signal components, and even less about their temporal and spatial dynamics. Here, we examined temporal variation of several w…
Changes in predator community structure shifts the efficacy of two warning signals in Arctiid moths
2013
Summary 1. Polymorphism in warning coloration is puzzling because positive frequency-dependent selection by predators is expected to promote monomorphic warning signals in defended prey. 2. We studied predation on the warning-coloured wood tiger moth (Parasemia plantaginis )b y using artificial prey resembling white and yellow male colour morphs in five separate populations with different naturally occurring morph frequencies. 3. We tested whether predation favours one of the colour morphs over the other and whether that is influenced either by local, natural colour morph frequencies or predator community composition. 4. We found that yellow specimens were attacked less than white ones rega…
