Norma Jeane Baker, Helen of Troy and her Phantoms. From Euripides to Anne Carson
No full textMostramos una nueva reinterpretación genérica, lingüística e ideológica,
sobre la figura mítica de Helena: Norma Jeane Baker of Troy, de Anne Carson. La
Helena de Eurípides como hipotexto y un fragmento de la biografía de Norma Jeane
como hipertexto, permiten la fusión de dos figuras femeninas: la “inocente” y mal
afamada Helena junto a su descarado εἴδωλον, y Norma Jeane Baker en el contexto
del exigente Star System del Hollywood de la década de los 50. Dos figuras unidas por
el mismo ambiguo sentimiento de admiración, deseo y rechazo. Obra de arte de trama
no lineal, donde el sentido del texto se encuentra entre dos lenguas, dos tiempos y dos
espacios. Los géneros artísticos pierden sus contornos exactos dando como resultado
un texto singular y una especial performance escénica.We show a new generic, linguistic and ideological reinterpretation of
the mythical figure of Helen: Anne Carson’s Norma Jeane Baker of Troy. Euripides’
Helen as hypotext and fragments of Norma Jeane´s biography as hypertext merge two
female figures: the “innocent” and ill-famed Helen along with her shameless εἴδωλον,
and Norma Jeane Baker in the context of the demanding Hollywood Star System of
the 50s. Two figures united by the same ambiguous feeling of admiration, desire and
rejection. Work of art with a non-linear plot, where the meaning of the text is found
between two languages, two times and two spaces. Artistic genres lose their exact
contours, resulting in a unique text and a special scenic performance

Linoleic acid causes greater weight gain than saturated fat without hypothalamic inflammation in the male mouse
No full textA significant change in the Western diet, concurrent with the obesity epidemic, was a substitution of saturated fatty acids with polyunsaturated, specifically linoleic acid (LA). Despite increasing investigation on type as well as amount of fat, it is unclear which fatty acids are most obesogenic. The objective of this study was to determine the obesogenic potency of LA vs. saturated fatty acids and the involvement of hypothalamic inflammation. Forty-eight mice were divided into four groups: low-fat or three high-fat diets (HFDs, 45% kcals from fat) with LA comprising 1%, 15% and 22.5% of kilocalories, the balance being saturated fatty acids. Over 12 weeks, bodyweight, body composition, food intake, calorimetry, and glycemia assays were performed. Arcuate nucleus and blood were collected for mRNA and protein analysis. All HFD-fed mice were heavier and less glucose tolerant than control. The diet with 22.5% LA caused greater bodyweight gain, decreased activity, and insulin resistance compared to control and 1% LA. All HFDs elevated leptin and decreased ghrelin in plasma. Neuropeptides gene expression was higher in 22.5% HFD. The inflammatory gene Ikk was suppressed in 1% and 22.5% LA. No consistent pattern of inflammatory gene expression was observed, with suppression and augmentation of genes by one or all of the HFDs relative to control. These data indicate that, in male mice, LA induces obesity and insulin resistance and reduces activity more than saturated fat, supporting the hypothesis that increased LA intake may be a contributor to the obesity epidemic.Peer reviewe

Highly efficient small interfering RNA delivery to primary mammalian neurons induces MicroRNA-like effects before mRNA degradation
No full textThe study of protein function in neurons has been hindered by the lack of highly efficient, nontoxic methods of inducing RNA interference in such cells. Here we show that application of synthetic small interfering RNA( siRNA) linked to the vector peptide Penetratin1 results in rapid, highly efficient uptake of siRNA by entire populations of cultured primary mammalian hippocampal and sympathetic neurons. This treatment leads to specific knock-down of targeted proteins within hours without the toxicity associated with transfection. In contrast to current methods, our technique permits study of protein function across entire populations with minimal disturbance of complex cellular networks. Using this technique, we found that protein knock-down ( evident after 6 hr) precedes any decrease in targeted message ( evident after 24 hr), suggesting an early, translational repression by perfectly targeted siRNAs.PT: J; CR: BARTEL DP, 2004, CELL, V116, P281 BERTRAND E, 2001, MOL CELL NEUROSCI, V18, P503 DEROSSI D, 1994, J BIOL CHEM, V269, P10444 DOENCH JG, 2003, GENE DEV, V17, P438 DOSTIE JE, 2003, RNA, V9, P180 ELBASHIR SM, 2001, EMBO J, V20, P6877 FINK CC, 2003, NEURON, V39, P283 FIRE A, 1998, NATURE, V391, P806 GAUDILLIERE B, 2002, J BIOL CHEM, V277, P46442 HANNON GJ, 2002, NATURE, V418, P244 HUTVAGNER G, 2002, SCIENCE, V297, P2056 JOHNSTON RJ, 2003, NATURE, V426, P845 JOLIOT A, 2004, NAT CELL BIOL, V6, P189 KHVOROVA A, 2003, CELL, V115, P209 KIM J, 2004, P NATL ACAD SCI USA, V101, P360 KRICHEVSKY AM, 2002, P NATL ACAD SCI USA, V99, P11926 KRICHEVSKY AM, 2003, RNA, V9, P1274 LAI EC, 2003, CURR BIOL, V13, R925 LLAVE C, 2002, SCIENCE, V297, P2053 MURATOVSKA A, 2004, FEBS LETT, V558, P63 OMI K, 2004, FEBS LETT, V558, P89 RABACCHI SA, 2004, NEUROBIOL AGING, V25, P1057 REYNOLDS A, 2004, NAT BIOTECHNOL, V22, P326 SAXENA S, 2003, J BIOL CHEM, V278, P44312 SCHERER LJ, 2003, NAT BIOTECHNOL, V21, P1457 SCHWARZ DS, 2003, CELL, V115, P199 THEODORE L, 1995, J NEUROSCI, V15, P7158 TOROCSIK B, 2002, J NEUROSCI, V22, P8971 TROY CM, 1994, P NATL ACAD SCI USA, V91, P6384 TROY CM, 1996, J NEUROSCI, V16, P253 TROY CM, 1996, P NATL ACAD SCI USA, V93, P5635 TROY CM, 2001, J NEUROSCI, V21, P5007 TROY CM, 2002, J BIOL CHEM, V277, P34295 VICKERS TA, 2003, J BIOL CHEM, V278, P7108 ZENG Y, 2003, P NATL ACAD SCI USA, V100, P9779; NR: 35; TC: 22; J9: J NEUROSCI; PG: 7; GA: 869ZASource type: Electronic(1

Individual portraits of African American women taken outdoors, from the William E. Baker glass negative collection.
No full textNone of the individuals are identified. These photographs were probably taken by either William E. Baker or James Larry Johnson, photographers who operated a photographic studio at 116 1/2 Dexter Avenue in Montgomery, Alabama, from the 1910s to the 1930s. Both men also lived and worked at different times in Troy, Alabama, which could also be the location of these images
