    RNA editing alterations define manifestation of prion diseases

    No full text
    Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders caused by misfolding of the normal prion protein into an infectious cellular pathogen. Clinically characterized by rapidly progressive dementia and accounting for 85% of human prion disease cases, sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD) is the prevalent human prion disease. Although sCJD neuropathological hallmarks are well-known, associated molecular alterations are elusive due to rapid progression and absence of preclinical stages. To investigate transcriptome alterations during disease progression, we utilized tg340- PRNP 129MM mice infected with postmortem material from sCJD patients of the most susceptible genotype (MM1 subtype), a sCJD model that faithfully recapitulates the molecular and pathological alterations of the human disease. Here we report that transcriptomic analyses from brain cortex in the context of disease progression, reveal epitranscriptomic alterations (specifically altered RNA edited pathway profiles, eg., ER stress, lysosome) that are characteristic and possibly protective mainly for preclinical and clinical disease stages. Our results implicate regulatory epitranscriptomic mechanisms in prion disease neuropathogenesis, whereby RNA-editing targets in a humanized sCJD mouse model were confirmed in pathological human autopsy material

    Theoretical subjects, such as history, usually do not attract the interest of students and as a result educational games and serious games that use augmented reality (AR) are increasingly used as a means of supporting education. It is believed that these games can make the lesson more engaging and contribute to improving student performance. However, relevant research is limited. The present research presents the AR-enhanced serious game “Exploring Ancient Greece” that aims at supporting 10- to 14-year-old students in learning the history of Ancient Greece. It consists of three levels that include: a presentation of archaeological sites with AR that gives students the chance to explore places of historical interest; a trivia game that includes an AR presentation of a monument or piece of art somewhere in the physical surroundings of the students; and an escape room where the player is trapped in an archaeological site and tries to solve riddles to find the exit. To evaluate the game, an empirical study was conducted involving students between the ages of 10 and 14 who answered knowledge questions before and after playing the game, completed a questionnaire including questions based on the System Usability Scale (SUS), as well as questions for evaluating their experience, and answered oral questions. Based on the results of this study, students improved their knowledge of history, evaluated the game positively and stated that they prefer the use of serious games and AR in education

    Skripsi ini berjudul Dinamika Komunitas Pedagang Besi Bekas Asal Panjalu di Pasar Jatayu Bandung Tahun 1957-2000. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kajian historis mengenai dinamika yang terjadi pada komunitas pedagang besi bekas asal Panjalu yang berdagang di Pasar Jatayu Bandung pada kurun waktu 1957 hingga tahun 2000. Masih ditemukannya penelitian yang secara khusus mengkaji mengenai komunitas urban asal Panjalu yang bermata pencaharian sebagai pedagang besi bekas di Kota Bandung menjadi alasan penulis untuk melakukan penelitian ini. Melalui penelitian ini diharapkan mampu memperkaya khazanah penulisan sejarah lokal mengenai salah satu komunitas urban yang berasal dari Panjalu yang bergerak dalam usaha jual beli besi bekas. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode historis yang memiliki tahapan heursitik, kritik, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, eksistensi Pasar Jatayu sebagai pasar besi sejak diresmikannya pada tahun 1957 hingga masa kejayaannya pada tahun 2000 tidak terlepas dari peran komunitas pedagang besi bekas asal Panjalu selaku pihak yang ‘menghidupkan’ pasar. Pasar Jatayu juga di sisi lain telah menjadi wadah aktivitas ekonomi dan sumber penghidupan bagi para urbanisan asal Panjalu yang tergabung ke dalam komunitas pedagang besi bekas. Komunitas pedagang besi bekas asal Panjalu di Pasar Jatayu dalam perkembangannya telah membuktikan bahwa praktek jual-beli besi bekas yang seringkali dianggap kurang menarik bagi sebagian orang untuk dijadikan sebuah komoditas usaha, ternyata mampu mengantarkan komunitas ini ke tingkatan sosial yang lebih tinggi. Upaya pengembangan usaha besi bekas yang dilakukan komunitas ini secara terus menerus dan melibatkan beberapa generasi telah menjadi contoh sukses komunitas urban yang bermukim di kota Bandung.;--This research is entitled Dynamics of the Community of Used Iron Traders from Panjalu at Jatayu Market Bandung City in 1957-2000. This study aims to describe a historical study of the dynamics that occurred in the community of used iron traders from Panjalu who traded at Jatayu Market Bandung City in the period 1957 to 2000. It is still difficult to find research that specifically examines the urban community from Panjalu, whose livelihood as a scrap metal trader in the city of Bandung is the reason for the author to conduct this research. Through this research, it is hoped that it can enrich the treasures of local history writing about one of the urban communities originating from Panjalu, which is engaged in the business of buying and selling scrap metal. The research method used is a historical method that has heuritic stages, criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Based on the results of the study, the existence of the Jatayu Market as an iron market since its inauguration in 1957 until its heyday in 2000 was inseparable from the role of the community of scrap iron traders from Panjalu as a party that 'enlivens' the market. Jatayu Market, on the other hand, has become a place for economic activity and a source of livelihood for urbanists from Panjalu who are members of the scrap metal traders community. The community of scrap iron traders from Panjalu in Jatayu Market in its development has proven that the practice of buying and selling used iron, which is often considered to be less attractive to some people as a business commodity, turns out to deliver this community to a higher social level. The efforts to develop scrap metal business carried out by this community continuously and involving several generations have become successful examples of urban communities in the city of Bandung

More than half of former custom property lands in the region are not yet registered or uncertificated. The expense problem become a main constraint within the certificating process, beside other constraints such as the problems of medium, time, human resource, society prosperity level, and the minimal of society knowledge about the importance of Property Certificate. Pemberian jaminan kepastian hukum di bidang pertanahan memerlukan tersedianya perangkat hukum tertulis yang lengkap dan jelas serta penyelenggaraan pendaftaran tanah yang efektif. Pasal 19 UUPA menegaskan bahwa untuk menjamin kepastian hukum oleh pemerintah diadakan pendaftaran tanah di seluruh wilayah Republik Indonesia. Melalui pendaftaran tanah orang akan memperoleh jaminan kepastian hukum atas tanahnya karena memperoleh sertipikat yang berlaku sebagai alat bukti yang kuat. Namun dalam kenyataannya masih banyak tanah-tanah yang belum didaftarkan. Di wilayah Jatiasih-Bekasi contohnya banyak tanah-tanah bekas hak milik adat yang tidak didaftarkan oleh pemlikinya, tentunya hal ini sangat riskan karena akan menimbulkan masalah di kemudian hari selain itu juga membuka peluang bagi pihak lain untuk memanfaatkan kesempatan memperoleh tanah tersebut, dimana penduduk tidak mempunyai bukti yang cukup kuat yang menyatakan bahwa mereka adalah pemilik tanah yang sebenarnya. Mengingat pentingnya surat tanda bukti hak tanah (sertipikat) sebagai alat bukti yang kuat bagi pemiliknya, maka Penulis tertarik untuk membuat tesis “Pelaksanaan Pendaftaran Tanah Bekas Hak Milik Adat Di Kecamatan Jatiasih-Bekasi. Metode yang digunakan adalah berdasarkan metode pendekatan yuridis empiris yang bertumpu pada data primer (hasil dari penelitian di lapangan). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan pendaftaran tanah bekas hak milik adat di wilayah Kecamatan Jatiasih-Bekasi dan hambatan serta penyelesaiannya dalam pelaksanaan pendaftaran tanah.
