- Description:
- Derek Walcott’s colonial schoolhouse bears an interesting relationship to space and place: it is both a Caribbean site, and a site that disavows its locality by valorizing the metropolis and acting as a vital institution in the psychic colonization of the Caribbean peoples. Th e situation of the schoolhouse within the Caribbean landscape, and the presence of the Caribbean body, means that the pedagogical relationship works in two ways, and that the hegemonic/colonial discourses of the schoolhouse are inherently challenged within its walls. While the school was used as a means of colonial subjugation, as a method of privileging the metropolitan centre, and as a way of recreating that centre within the colonies, Walcott’s emphasis on place complicates and ultimately rewrites colonial discourses and practices. While the school attempts to legitimize colonial space, it in fact fosters what Walter Mignolo has termed “border thinking.”, Koloniální škola Dereka Walcotta s sebou nese zajimavý vztah mezi prostorem a místem: je to jak místo v Karibiku, tak i místo, které své locality vzdává tím, že zvyšuje hodnotu metropole a jedná jako nepostradatelná instituce v psychické kolonizaci karibského lidu. Poloha školy v karibské krajině a přítomnost karibského těla znamenají, že pedagogický vztah působí dvěma způsoby a že hegemonické/ koloniální diskursy školy jsou uvnitř jejích zdí z vlastní podstaty zpochybňovány. Přestože škola byla používána jako prostředek koloniálního podmanění, jako metoda pro privilegování metropolitního centra a jako způsob znovuvytváření tohoto centra uvnitř kolonií, Walcottův důraz na místo komplikuje a v konečném důsledku přepisuje koloniální diskursy a praktiky. Zatímco škola usiluje o legitimizaci koloniálního prostoru, ve skutečnosti pěstuje to, co Walter Mignolo nazval “hraničním myšlením”., and Ben Jefferson.

- Language:

- Description:
- The aim of our study was to inve stigate mechanism of action of endothelins 1, 2 and 3 on spontaneous activity, tone and intraluminal pressure of human ureter. Both longitudinal tension and intraluminal pressure were recorded from the isolated segments of proximal human ureter. Endothelins 1, 2 and 3 (5.35x10 -11 M- 5.05x10-8M) produced concentration-dependent tonic contraction and sustained increase in intraluminal pressure of isolated preparations of hum an ureter. Endo thelins 1 and 3 produced also concentration-dependent inhibition of spontaneous, phasic contractions of the isolated preparations. Selective antagonist of ETA receptors BQ123 and selective antagonist of ET B receptors BQ788 produced significant inhibition of endothelin-1-induced tonic contraction (pA2=8.80 and 6.55, respectively) and increase in intraluminal pressure (pA2=8.68 and 7.02, respectively), while they did not affect endothelin-1-induced inhibition of spontaneous activity. Endothelin 1 produces increase in tone and intraluminal pressure of isolated human ureter acting on both ETA and ETB receptors, the first one being functionally more important. On ly endothelins 1 and 3 inhibit spontaneous, phasic activity of human ureter, but this effect was not blocked by selective antagonists of ETA and ETB receptors., S. M. Jankovic ...

3797. Contracting endomorphisms and dualizing complexes

- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- mathematics, Bass classes, contracting endomorphisms, dualizing complex, Frobenius endomorphisms, G_{C}-dimension, semidualizing complex, 13, and 51
- Language:

- Description:
- We investigate how one can detect the dualizing property for a chain complex over a commutative local Noetherian ring R. Our focus is on homological properties of contracting endomorphisms of R, e.g., the Frobenius endomorphism when R contains a field of positive characteristic. For instance, in this case, when R is F-finite and C is a semidualizing R-complex, we prove that the following conditions are equivalent: (i) C is a dualizing R-complex; (ii) C\sim RHom_{R}(^{n}R,C) for some n > 0; (iii) G_{C}-dim^{n}R < ∞ and C is derived RHom_{R}(^{n}R,C)-reflexive for some n > 0; and (iv) G_{C}-dim^{n}R < ∞ for infinitely many n > 0., Saeed Nasseh, Sean Sather-Wagstaff., and Obsahuje seznam literatury

- Description:
- Clays (2005) and the Handbook of Clay Science (2006) are new textbooks. Clays, written by Alain Meunier, is for those studying earth sciences. The Handbook of Clay Science, edited by Faїza Bergaya, Benny Theng and Gerhard Lagaly, is concerned particularly with the industrial application of clay mineral science. Both books ar e timely and could fill important gaps in the library of mineral science. Their quality as textbooks is discussed. Critical an alysis of editorial accuracy, indexes and user-friendliness indic ate that both books fall short of the high standards that should be the hallmark of academic publication. Their shortcomings seem to be related to widespread problems that may beset commercial publica tion of scientific books., Christopher V. Jeans., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy

- Language:

- Description:
- Recent pre-clinical evidence suggests that the active metabolite of tamoxifen, endoxifen, is a substrate for efflux pump P-glycoprotein. The aim of our study was to evaluate, if the polymoprhisms within ABCB1 gene alter tamoxifen adjuvant treatment efficacy in premenopausal women. Totally 71 premenopausal women with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer indicated for tamoxifen adjuvant treatment were followed retrospectively for median period of 56 months. The gentic polymorphisms of CYP2D6 and ABCB1 were analyzed and potential covariates as tumor grading, staging, age at the diagnosis, comedication, quantitative positivity of ER or PR were also evaluated. Cox proportional-hazards regression model indicated that patients carrying at least one variant allele in ABCB1 rs1045642 had significantly longer time to event survival compared to wild type subjects. Non-significant trend was noted for better treatment outcome of patients carrying at least one variant allele in the SNP rs2032582, while for the CYP2D6 polymorphism poor metabolizer phenotype resulted in worse outcome in comparison to extensive metabolizers subjects with HR of 4.04 (95 % CI 0.31-52.19). Similarly, patients using CYP2D6 inhibitors had non-significantly shorter time-to-event as compared to never users resulting in hazard ratio of 2.06 (95 % CI 0.40-10.63). ABCB1 polymorphisms may affect outcome of tamoxifen adjuvant treatment in premenopausal breast cancer patiens. This factor should be taken into account in addition to the CYP2D6 polymorphism or phenotypic inhibition of CYP2D6 activity., S. Argalácsová, O. Slanař, P. Vítek, P. Tesařová, H. Bakhouche, M.

- Language:
- English
- Description:
- We aimed to compare the effect of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors captopril (containing thiol group) and enalapril (without thiol group) on the development of spontaneous hypertension and to analyze mechanisms of their actions, particularly effects on oxidative stress and NO production. Six-week-old SHR were divided into three groups: control, group receiving captopril (50 mg/kg/day) or enalapril (50 mg/kg/day) for 6 weeks. At the end of experiment, systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased by 41 % in controls. Both captopril and enalapril prevented blood pressure increase, however, SBP in the captopril group (121±5 mmHg) was significantly lower than that in the enalapril group (140±5 mmHg). Concentration of conjugated dienes in the aorta was significantly lower in the captopril group compared to the enalapril group. Captopril and enalapril increased NO synthase activity in the heart and aorta to the similar level. Neither captopril nor enalapril was, however, able to increase the expression of eNOS. Both ACE inhibitors increased the level of cGMP. However, cGMP level was significantly higher in the aorta of captopril group. We conclude that captopril, beside inhibition of ACE, prevented hypertension by increasing NO synthase activity and by simultaneous decrease of oxidative stress which resulted in increase of cGMP concentration., O.
