La construcción de una economía familiar de archipiélago. Movilidad y recomposición de las relaciones intergeneracionales en el medio rural mexicano by André Quesnel, Alberto del Rey

“…Estos cambios han provocado que migren por largos periodos las jóvenes generaciones hacia la frontera norte y Estados Unidos, a diferencia de lo que ocurría antes de la década de los noventa, cuando la migración se circunscribía al Golfo de México. Tomando como base una encuesta sociodemográfica y sobre tenencia de la tierra realizada en 1999, los autores de este texto sostienen que las familias rurales, al no poder mantenerse con los recursos domésticos y locales en su entorno, se ven forzadas a poner en marcha una nueva organización, que se asemeja a una economía de archipiélago, entre los lugares donde se instalan las jóvenes generaciones. …”

Baicalein Restores the Balance of Th17/Treg Cells via Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor to Attenuate Colitis by Chang Liu, Yanyang Li, Yanping Chen, Shaowei Huang, Xiaojing Wang, Shuang Luo, Yulin Su, Lian Zhou, Xia Luo

“…The results demonstrated that baicalein improved the symptoms of UC mice, regulated the balance of Th17/Treg cells, and restored the balance of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-17, IL-6, and TNF-α; anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-β; and epithelial protective cytokine IL-22 in UC mice, and these effects were related to AhR. Taken together, our research found that baicalein might be a potential drug for UC via regulating Treg cell differentiation and maintaining immune homeostasis and attempted to shed a light on the pivotal role of AhR in these effects.…”
