Interleukin-1Alpha-Mediated Signaling Mechanisms in the Human Trabecular Meshwork
No full textShade, Debra L., Interleukin-1Alpha-Mediated Signaling Mechanisms in the Human Trabecular Meshwork. Doctor of Philosophy (Biomedical Sciences/Pharmacology), December, 2000, 140 pp., 13 tables, 30 figures, references, 156 titles. This research provides important insights into the means by which interleukin-1alpha (IL-1α) regulates TM cell functions and enhances aqueous outflow, thus lowering IOP. The studies reported herein represent the first known characterization of the central role of the AP-1 transcription factor pathway in IL-1α-mediated production of proMMP-3 by TM cells, as well as the first known evidence that IL-1α can also enhance TM phagocytosis. Using these results as a stepping stone, this research has furthermore led to the identification of “AP-1 activators” as a novel compound class which may be useful in the treatment of glaucoma; it also points to the potential for compounds which regulate MEK, p38, and PKCμ activity as additional means of treatment. Based on these results, it is postulated that such compounds would be expected to lower IOP via upregulations of MMP production, followed by ECM degradation, and potentially, enhanced clearance of degraded ECM via phagocytosis
Bullying: a stepping stone to dating aggression?
No full textAbstract
Bullying is the use of power and aggression to control and distress another. In this paper, we review research to explore whether the lessons learned in bullying provide a stepping stone to aggressive behavior in dating relationships. We start by considering definitions and a relationship framework with which to understand both bullying and dating aggression. We consider bullying from a developmental-contextual perspective and consider risk factors associated with the typical developmental patterns for bullying and dating aggression, including developmental and sociodemographic, individual attributes, and family, peer group, community, and societal relationship contexts that might lead some children and youths to follow developmental pathways that lead to bullying and dating aggression. We conclude by discussing implications for intervention with a review of evidence-based interventions.</jats:p

Interview: Anne-Marie Fortier
No full textThis paper is an edited version of an email interview conducted by Debra Ferreday and Adi Kuntsman with Anne-Marie Fortier, the author of Multicultural Horizons: Diversity and the Limits of the Civil Nation (Routledge, 2008). Fortier’s work has been informative in the development of some of the arguments explored in this special issue; in their conversation Ferreday and Kuntsman asked her to comment on the ideas of haunting, racial imaginaries, nostalgia, national anxieties, political feelings and hopes for the future

Anorexia and Abjection : A Review Essay
No full textThis article draws on a review of Megan Warin’s 2010 book, Abject Relations: Everyday Worlds of Anorexia, to discuss the ways in which a feminist ethnographic approach might disrupt dominant cultural narratives of eating disorders and embodiment. My argument draws on feminist work on figuration and ‘body image’ to discuss how the anorexic body becomes a figure of abjection, both in media images and in popular feminist discourse. I examine how cultural narratives and images are pathologically capable of both engendering disgust in the non-anorexic spectator and, second (and more threateningly), moving vulnerable, female spectators to imitation – a power to affect and infect onlookers which is central to contemporary debates about what is popularly called ‘body image’. By drawing on Warin’s work, the article examines how a critical feminist ethnography might move debates on eating disorders beyond the reproduction of tropes of abjection, disgust and discipline which have led to an impasse in the field, and ask whether, by paying attention to the lived experience of anorexia, it might be possible for the anorexic subject to speak
