The Territory as a Victim: Geological Assessment to Analyzing the Impact of Colombia’s Armed Conflict on Geo-Bio Megadiversity at the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta by Juan Fernando Zapata-Herrera, Catalina González-Tejada, Sergio A. Restrepo-Moreno, María Isabel Marín-Cerón

“…The definition “territory as a victim” originated by local indigenous communities and is now incorporated in transitional justice systems such as the Jurisdicción Especial para la Paz (JEP, Colombia), condenses the profound violence experienced by the land, one that muted the spiritual guardians inhabiting its waters, trees, plants, soils, and stones. By spotlighting the intricate interplay between social struggles and environmental degradation as a central element of the ecosphere-techonosphere conflict in the Anthropocene, this study heightens awareness of the urgent issues confronting the SNSM, while advocating for targeted conservation initiatives to preserve its distinctive and invaluable natural heritage.…”

Catholic Church Interiors in Fin-de-Siècle Literature by Claire Masurel-Murray

“…It focuses on two aspects of church architecture and decoration that are foregrounded in fin-de-siècle poetry and fiction—and were highly polemical in the late Victorian context because of their association with the Ritualist controversy and with ‘Romishness’: the eastward position, i.e. the celebration of the Eucharist on a stone altar fixed to the back of the chancel rather than on a wooden communion table facing the congregation; and altar candles, which were condemned in anti-ritualist pamphlets as both pagan and ‘popish’. …”

Tigulixostat Alleviates Hyperuricemic Nephropathy by Promoting M2 Macrophage Polarization by Xue L, Tao Q, Chang H, Yan S, Wang L, Zhao Z, Tu C

“…Urate transporter 1 (URAT1) inhibitors are known to enhance uric acid elimination via the kidneys, but they also increase the risk of kidney stone formation. Currently, xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors are the predominant uric-lowering medications on the market.Methods: In this study, we utilized single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial metabolomics, plasma metabolomics, flow cytometry to explore the effects of Tigulixostat on uric acid level and hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN) in Uox-KO mouse model.Results: In this study, we discovered that Tigulixostat (LC350189) more effectively reduced SUA levels and resulted in better renal outcomes compared to allopurinol, without inducing liver injury in urate oxidase knockout (Uox-KO) mice. …”
