    Postinternet Art of the Moving Image and the Disjunctures of the Global and the Local: Kim Hee-cheon and Other Young East Asian Artists

    No full text
    Jihoon Kim discusses in his Postinternet Art of the Moving Image and the Disjunctures of the Global and the Local: Kim Hee-cheon and Other Young East Asian Artists” ways in which moving image works by East Asian artists Chen Chen-yu, Lu Yang, and Kim Hee-cheon engage the postinternet condition, a situation in which the internet and digital technologies are no longer perceived as new but as fundamentally restructuring our subjectivity and world. By opening a platform for intersecting the postinternet condition with a discourse on globalization, which has yet to be fully discussed in the existing Western-centric discourses on postinternet art, a key specificity of the postinternet art of the moving image by contemporary East Asian artists lies in its attempts to create spreadable images of multiple political, aesthetic, and cultural layers. The artists’ rigorous aesthetic juxtapositions of virtual and physical spaces should be seen not simply as indicating the artists’ cosmopolitan postinternet sensibilities but also as expressing their engagement with the contradictory and unstable disjunctures of the global and local in contemporary East Asia

    SYSTEMATIC ANALYSIS MODEL OF INDUSTRIAL DESIGNERS SKETCH

    No full text
    It is known that designers employ a wide range of visual representations in order to tackle ill-determined problems that are known as the wicked problems. In addition, a sketch is typically employed among such visual presentations in the early stage of a design, Therefore, systematic analysis of the sketches that designers produce in their practice could be a means of understanding how designers think during the conceptual phase of a design. Hence, this paper explores designer sketches from two perspectives. First, preceding research concerning analyses of designer sketches that were carried out in the fields of architecural design and engineering design was extensively reviewed and analyzed. Secondly, on the basis of sutdies of industrial designers activities in his/her practice, methods for sketch analysis and its application are proposed. This study also structures a conceptual framework for the analysis of the sketches of induetrial designers. This framework and method of this analysis will make a thinking as well as toward pedagogical applications of this work

    RNF43 and ZNRF3 in Wnt Signaling - A Master Regulator at the Membrane

    No full text
    The Wnt & beta;-catenin signaling pathway is a highly conserved mechanism that plays a critical role from embryonic development and adult stem cell homeostasis. However, dysregulation of the Wnt pathway has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer. Therefore, multiple layers of regulatory mechanisms tightly control the activation and suppression of the Wnt signal. The E3 ubiquitin ligases RNF43 and ZNRF3, which are known negative regulators of the Wnt pathway, are critical component of Wnt signaling regulation. These E3 ubiquitin ligases control Wnt signaling by targeting the Wnt receptor Frizzled to induce ubiquitination-mediated endo-lysosomal degradation, thus controlling the activation of the Wnt signaling pathway. We also discuss the regulatory mechanisms, interactors, and evolution of RNF43 and ZNRF3. This review article summarizes recent findings on RNF43 and ZNRF3 and their potential implications for the development of therapeutic strategies to target the Wnt signaling pathway in various diseases, including cancer.11Nsciescopu

    Reactive-Oxygen-Species-Responsive Drug Delivery Systems: Promises and Challenges

    No full text
    Given the increasing evidence indicates that many pathological conditions are associated with elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, there have been growing research efforts focused on the development of ROS-responsive carrier systems because of their promising potential to realize more specific diagnosis and effective therapy. By judicious utilization of ROS-responsive functional moieties, a wide range of carrier systems has been designed for ROS-mediated drug delivery. In this review article, insights into design principle and recent advances on the development of ROS-responsive carrier systems for drug delivery applications are provided alongside discussion of their in vitro and in vivo evaluation. In particular, the discussions in this article will mainly focus on polymeric nanoparticles, hydrogels, inorganic nanoparticles, and activatable prodrugs that have been integrated with diverse ROS-responsive moieties for spatiotemporally controlled release of drugs for effective therapy.1149sciescopu

    To date, various nanomaterials with the ability for gene delivery or photothermal effect have been developed in the field of biomedicine. The therapeutic potential of these nanomaterials has raised considerable interests in their use in potential next-generation strategies for effective anticancer therapy. In particular, the advancement of novel nanomedicines utilizing both therapeutic strategies of gene delivery and photothermal effect has generated much optimism regarding the imminent development of effective and successful cancer treatments. In this review, we discuss current research progress with regard to combined gene and photothermal therapy. This review focuses on synergistic therapeutic systems combining gene regulation and photothermal ablation as well as logically designed nano-carriers aimed at enhancing the delivery efficiency of therapeutic genes using the photothermal effect. The examples detailed in this review provide insight to further our understanding of combinatorial gene and photothermal therapy, thus paving the way for the design of promising nanomedicines.
