DataSheet2_miR-3587 Inhibitor Attenuates Ferroptosis Following Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Through HO-1.docx
No full textRenal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) is frequently observed in patients who are critically ill, yet there are no reliable or effective approaches for the treatment of this condition. Ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, is regulated by key genes such as glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) and participates in the injury of renal tubular epithelial cells during IR. This study aimed to investigate the miRNA-mRNA regulatory networks involved in ferroptosis following renal IR. Using bioinformatics analysis, HMOX1 was found to be significantly upregulated during the early stages of renal IR injury, and microRNA-3587 (miR-3587) was identified as a putative regulator of HMOX1. When a miR-3587 inhibitor was applied in a hypoxia-reoxygenation (HR) model system using renal tubular epithelial cells, HO-1 protein (encoded by HMOX1) expression was significantly increased relative to that observed in the HR group, with concomitant increases in GPX4 protein levels, enhanced cell viability, a reduction in malondialdehyde content, decreased Fe2+ level, and the restoration of normal mitochondrial membrane potential. Transmission electron microscopy showed a reduced or absent mitochondrial crest and a damaged mitochondrial outer membrane. Targeting of HMOX1 by miR-3587 was confirmed by luciferase reporter gene assay. In conclusion, these preliminary results indicate that inhibition of miR-3587 promotes HO-1 upregulation, thereby protecting renal tissues from IR-induced ferroptosis.</p

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Get PDFThis letter dated August 29, 1950, from United States (US) Senator William Langer to Three Affiliated Tribes member Martin Cross, thanks Cross for sending copies of statements made by Cross and William Deane at the US House hearings on US House Resolution 8411 (H.R. 8411) and US Senate Bill 3587 (S. 3587). Langer assures Cross that he will do all that he can to assure enactment of this legislation.

Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Letter from Martin Cross to Senator Langer Regarding Carl Whitman and Senate Bill 3587, June 28, 1950.
No full textThis handwritten letter dated June 28, 1950, from Three Affiliated Tribes member Martin Cross to United States (US) Senator William Langer, informs Langer that tribal council members Carl Whitman and Mark Mahto and Superintendent Rex W. Z---- (last name illegible) are in Washington, D.C., but they do not speak for Cross\u27s group. Cross asks Langer to not give this group an advantage over the others on the reservation. Cross expresses some concern regarding US Senate Bill 3587 (S. 3587) which he calls his bill. Cross asks Langer to send him any updates.
