FEDERALISM, INSECURITY, AND THE PERSISTENT AGITATIONS AMONG ETHNIC GROUPS IN NIGERIA’S FOURTH REPUBLIC: ANY WAY FORWARD? by TEMITOPE EMMANUEL ABIODUN, IBRAHIM ADEDAYO OYEWOLE, ENOCH AKINLOLUWA MAKINDE

“…Findings revealed that the current pseudo-federal setup in Nigeria is indeed a major contributory factor to persistent ethnic agitations which have led to diverse insecurity cases in the fourth republic. Colonial policy and legacy further put Nigeria in a precarious position with ethnic groups suspecting one another, thus, making unity in diversity a herculean task. …”

Lineage tracing studies suggest that the placenta is not a de novo source of hematopoietic stem cells. by Xiaowen Chen, Joanna Tober, Martin Dominguez, Alan T Tang, Jenna Bockman, Jisheng Yang, Sneha Mani, Chin Nien Lee, Mei Chen, Triloshan Thillaikumaran, Patricia Mericko-Ishizuka, Monica Mainigi, Nancy A Speck, Mark L Kahn

“…Consistent with these findings, ECs harvested from the E10.5 aorta and UC, but not the placenta, gave rise to hematopoietic cells ex vivo, while colony forming assays using E14.5 fetal liver revealed only 2% of HSPCs arose from Hoxa13-expressing precursors. …”

FBXL16 Promotes Endometrial Progesterone Resistance via PP2AB55α/Cyclin D1 Axis in Ishikawa by Haoen Liu, Li Han, Liyan Zhong, Xiaodan Zhuang, Yan Peng

“…MPA tolerance of endometrial cancer cells was inhibited by knockdown of FBXL16 in DNA content assessment, CCK-8, and colony formation. It was confirmed that FBXL16 inhibited the activity of substrate PP2AB55α by binding to PP2A, reduced the phosphorylation level at Thr308 site of AKT1, inhibited the expression of GSK-3β, and thus led to a significant decrease in the phosphorylation level of cyclin D1, which prevented the ubiquitination recognition and degradation of cyclin D1. …”

Rethinking the <i>Unio Mystica</i>: From McGinn to Ibn ʿArabī by Arjun Nair

“…The challenge of translating mystical texts, imagery, and ideas across cultures and linguistic traditions raises obvious concerns about the misrepresentation and distortion of traditions in an environment of post-colonial critique. Nevertheless, the continued promise of dialogue calls for specialists of these traditions—particularly non-western and non-Christian traditions—to approach, assess, re-formulate, and even challenge the categories of mysticism from within the conceptual and theoretical horizons of the traditions that they research. …”
