Lung-Derived Mediators Induce Cytokine Production in Downstream Organs via an NF-κB-Dependent Mechanism by E. K. Patterson, L. J. Yao, N. Ramic, J. F. Lewis, G. Cepinskas, L. McCaig, R. A. W. Veldhuizen, C. M. Yamashita

“…Herein, lung-derived mediators were collected from 129X1/SVJ mice after 2 hours of MV while connected to the isolated perfused mouse lung model setup. Exposure of liver endothelial cells to lung-derived mediators resulted in a significant increase in G-CSF, IL-6, CXCL-1, CXCL-2, and MCP-1 production compared to noncirculated control perfusate media (P<0.05). …”

RUMO À CRIAÇÃO DESENHADA DE SERES HUMANOS? Notas sobre justiça distributiva e intervenção genética by José Luís Garcia

“… Neste texto, pretende-se apresentar argumentos que situam o problema moral das possibilidades de seleção e modificação genéticas fora do primado da ideia do bem sobre o justo, próprio do sentido teleológico de justiça, explorando o alcance e alguns limites das teorias da justiça de orientação deontológica e carácter pós-metafísico, que concedem supremacia ao justo perante o bem. …”

Numerical Analysis of a Small Pneumatic Hammer Performance Based on Evaluation Method of Friction Force by Un Hyok Yang, Tok Hyong Han, Un Chol Han, Il Gwang Tae, Ryo Myong Hong, Song Chol Kim

“…First, the friction force between piston and cylinder in a small pneumatic hammer was measured using an experimental setup at different inlet pressures. We could find from the experimental result that the friction force was about 0.8 N under the horizontal installation when there was no pressure supply, but it increased significantly, was 20 times greater than that without pressure supply, due to aerodynamic action by compressed air leaked from the annular gaps between the cylindrical matching surfaces of the components. …”
