Les eaux comme frontières dans les Enfers gréco-romains, d’après L’Odyssée d’Homère, la Théogonie d’Hésiode, La République de Platon et L’Énéide de Virgile by Emilia Ndiaye

“…Waters are everywhere in the Ancient Netherworld, at the entrance and inside as several rivers organize the topography into various separate spaces. They represent a geographical border which, in Hesiod’s vertical organization of the world, marks the limit between the earthly surface of the living and the underworld of the dead: thus, in the Odyssey, the confluence of the two rivers, at the edge of the Ocean, marks the entrance to the Underworld for Ulysses, whereas it is the lake Avernus for Aeneas, in Virgil’s Aeneid; or the Styx and its marshes that the dead cross in Charon’s boat. …”

Providing a model of emotional and rational appeals in video marketing based on social networks by Moohan Mohammadi, payam paslari, saeed moradpour, sadegh masjoodi

“…Excitement is one of the necessary elements to achieve attention in video marketing in such a way that "The customer's decision-making journey in video marketing begins with a video ad" (Maenhout, 2023), and only does positive emotions that affect the audience's attention, but negative stimuli also play an important role in attracting the viewer's attention (Vaish et al, 2008) (Rozin & Royzman, 2001).The engagementCrane & Sornette (2008) were the first people who introduced the term "engagement" in today's sense as a valuable tool for measuring the effectiveness of video marketing, in their definition: "audience engagement in video is a chance to share video and increase the number of visits" (Crane & Sornette, 2008).Dong et al, (2023) investigated the four main factors of short branded video content (content matching, informational relevance, storytelling, and emotionality), customer engagement (likes, comments, and shares) as well as the moderating effect of publication time (morning). …”

Antibacterial activity improvement in a point mutant K45E of the pepper defensin J1-1 by Gilberto Andrés Muñoz-Pérez, Francisco A. Guillén-Chable, Gerardo Corzo, Ivan Arenas-Sosa, Lucila A. Sánchez-Cach, Georgina Estrada

“…First, the mutant J1-1_K45E which oligomerizes in a distinct pattern was compared with J1-1 and secondly, J1-1_K45E shows a distinct lipid binding profile because it binds preferentially to phosphatidylserine. Together, our findings support the idea that amino acid sequence variability in plant defensins superfamily can generate major functional changes, and highlight the relevant role of charged residues, beyond the g-core loop, in the improvement of J1-1 antibacterial activity.…”
