Carbynes reloaded: Isolation of singlet metallocarbenes
No full textMetallocarbenes are the elusive electromers of the well-established carbyne complexes with subvalent carbon ligands. In this issue of Chem, Liu and co-workers report the isolation of the first bona fide metallocarbenes. Their work introduces a new class of organometallic compounds with unique bonding properties and paves the way toward new catalytic applications.http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100005156 Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftun

"Put your own house in order first": local perceptions of EU influence on Romani integration policies in the Czech Republic
Get PDFThis article examines the influence of the European Union (EU) on the development and implementation of Romani integration policy in the Czech Republic from the perspective of those responsible for policy delivery. Based on analysis of key policy documents and research conducted in the Czech Republic, this article first examines how Romani integration became a more important issue during membership negotiations and then discusses how the criticism of the European Commission's Regular Reports was received by those responsible for implementing pro-Romani policies. Finally, the paper assesses how the status of full EU membership has impacted on integration policy. The article concludes that while funding for Romani integration projects has benefitted some groups, the overall impression of the EU is of a remote institution, quick to criticise and unwilling to practise what it preaches
p90RSKs mediate the activation of ribosomal RNA synthesis by the hypertrophic agonist phenylephrine in adult cardiomyocytes
No full textCardiac hypertrophy involves the growth of heart muscle cells and is driven by faster protein synthesis which involves increased ribosome biogenesis. However, the signaling pathways that link hypertrophic stimuli to faster ribosome production remain to be identified.Here we have investigated the signaling pathways which promote ribosomal RNA synthesis in cardiomyocytes in response to hypertrophic stimulation. We employed a new non-radioactive labeling approach and show that the hypertrophic agent phenylephrine (PE) stimulates synthesis of 18S rRNA (made by RNA polymerase I) and 5S rRNA (produced by RNA polymerase III) in adult cardiomyocytes. In many settings, rRNA synthesis is driven by rapamycin-sensitive signaling through mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). However, the activation of rRNA synthesis by PE is not inhibited by rapamycin, indicating that its regulation involves other signaling pathways.PE stimulates MEK/ERK signaling in these cells. Inhibition of this pathway blocks the ability of PE to activate synthesis of 18S and 5S rRNA. Furthermore, BI-D1870, an inhibitor of the p90RSKs, protein kinases which are activated by ERK, blocks PE-activated rRNA synthesis, as did a second p90RSK inhibitor, SL0101. BI-D1870 also inhibits the PE-stimulated association of RNA polymerase I with the rRNA promoter.These findings show that signaling via MEK/ERK/p90RSK, not mTORC1, drives rRNA synthesis in adult cardiomyocytes undergoing hypertrophy. This is important both for our understanding of the mechanisms that control ribosome production and, potentially, for the management of cardiac hypertrophy
