March1 E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Modulates Features of Allergic Asthma in an Ovalbumin-Induced Mouse Model of Lung Inflammation by Osama A. Kishta, Antoine Sabourin, Leora Simon, Toby McGovern, Maxime Raymond, Tristan Galbas, Abdelilah Majdoubi, Satoshi Ishido, James G. Martin, Jacques Thibodeau

“…Given the key roles of MHC class II and CD86 in T cell activation and to get further insights into the development of allergic inflammation, we asked whether March1 deficiency exacerbates or attenuates features of allergic asthma in mice. Herein, we used an acute model of allergy to compare the asthmatic phenotype of March1-deficient and -sufficient mice immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) and later challenged by intranasal instillation of OVA in the lungs. …”

Threats and Challenges to The International Legal Order: Legal Problems Of Ensuring International Security in Modern Conditions (Some Conceptual Conclusions and Conclusions) by O. G. Paramuzova

“…Within the framework of this article, special emphasis is placed on the fact that in the current conditions of international relations, the authority of international law has been significantly undermined in recent years, which is why it is necessary to reaffirm the belief in the inviolability and necessity of the existence of the international legal system as a guarantor of the continued existence of mankind in a stable and inviolable international peace and security. The author draws attention to the fact that one of the possible ways to raise the value of general international law can be the modernization of international legal consciousness, which should be filled with a qualitatively new content, due to the need to solve problems associated with the growth of new threats and challenges to the existence of mankind.…”
