Régulation, verrous technologiques et transition écologique : le cas des formaldéhydes by Nicolas Béfort

“…The present change towards the use of renewable resources is activating production regimes in which economic actors are trying to use as an opportunity the social contestation of toxic molecules. In this context, our aim is to analyze the use of formaldehyde, an emblematic and carcinogenic molecule widely used in the production of resins and adhesives.Starting with a review of the regulation literature analyzing innovation, we discuss here the 'evolutionist theory of environmental innovations' in order to highlight an analytical framework that aims to analyze from a historical perspective the dynamics of acquiring knowledge. …”

Enhanced Interleukin 6 Trans-Signaling Modulates Disease Process in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Mouse Models by Carol Milligan, Dale O. Cowley, William Stewart, Alyson M. Curry, Elizabeth Forbes, Brian Rector, Annette Hastie, Liang Liu, Gregory A. Hawkins

“…Intense research efforts have provided insight into unique neuroanatomical regions, specific neuronal populations and genetic associations for ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases; however, the experimental results also suggest a convergence of these events to common toxic pathways. We propose that common toxic pathways can be therapeutically targeted, and this intervention will be effective in slowing progression and improving patient quality of life. …”
