Aportes y desafíos de la asignatura lengua y cultura de los pueblos originarios ancestrales. by Javiera Serrano

“… En los últimos años en Chile se han levantado diversos programas de educación intercultural, con falencias estructurales que develan una construcción desde una lógica utilitaria al sistema educativo monocultural y neoliberal chileno. Es desde este posicionamiento que se ha construido la asignatura de Lengua y cultura de los pueblos originarios ancestrales (LCPOA) que el Mineduc ha presentado a fin de hacerse cargo de la educación intercultural en Chile. …”

Phenotyping of Leukocytes and Leukocyte-Derived Extracellular Vesicles by Lotte Hatting Pugholm, Rikke Bæk, Evo Kristina Lindersson Søndergaard, Anne Louise Schacht Revenfeld, Malene Møller Jørgensen, Kim Varming

“…The majority of the lineage-specific markers used for identification of the parent cell types could not be detected on EVs released from monocultures of the associated cell types. In contrast, the vesicular presentation of CD9, CD63, and CD81 correlated to the cell surface expression of these markers, however, with few exceptions. …”

Problems of Cosmopolitanism and Alternativeness in the History of Central Asia by N. T. Nurulla-Khodzhaeva

“…Due to the alternativeness and cosmopolitanism, as well as lack of radical individualism within the local communities, there was no monocultural view on life, since both science and morality (religion, culture, and community) were mutually essential. …”

Conservation biological control in forest: A case study with the pine processionary moth by Nattan Plat, Lucas Moreews, Laura Schillé, Jean-Baptiste Rivoal, Hervé Jactel

“…Predation by birds was also positively correlated with the vocal activity of the great tit, the main predator of pine processionary caterpillars in winter. In conifer monocultures, broadleaved hedgerows not only help to control the pest but could also promote biodiversity and protect pine plantations from abiotic hazards, thereby enhancing the multifunctionality of plantation landscapes.…”

Cultiver la sobriété : la subsistance au coeur des modes de vie agricoles et alimentaires alternatifs by Rosalie Rainville

“…L’agriculture industrielle, nourrie par des logiques extractives et productivistes, est régulièrement tenue pour responsable des désastres écologiques et sociaux et de leur accélération, qu’il soit question de perte de la biodiversité et de destruction des sols due à l’omniprésence des monocultures, de l’augmentation des maladies professionnelles imputées à l’usage des pesticides ou encore du taux de suicide alarmant dans le monde agricole. …”

Effects of Placenta-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells on the Particulate Matter-Induced Damages in Human Middle Ear Epithelial Cells by So Young Kim, Seung Ha Oh, Jun Ho Lee, Myung-Whan Suh, Moo Kyun Park

“…PM-treated HMEECs cocultured with PL-MSCs showed alleviated inflammatory reactions represented by lower mRNA expression levels of MUC5B, TNFα, IL1β, and IL6 compared to monocultured PM-treated HMEECs. The mRNA expression levels of PGE2, TGFβ, and VEGF were elevated in cocultured PL-MSCs compared to those of control PL-MSCs. …”
