Multidimensional Dynamical Systems Accepting the Normal Shift

The dynamical systems of the form \ddot\bold r=\bold F (\bold r,\dot\bold r) in $\Bbb R^n$ accepting the normal shift are considered. The concept of weak normality for them is introduced. The partial differential equations for the force field \bold F(\bold r,\dot\bold r) of the dynamical systems with weak and complete normality are derived.Comment: AMS-TeX, ver. 2.1, IBM AT-386, size 16K (ASCII), short versio

«НАМ ЖАЛЬ РУССКИХ, …НУЖНО ПОМОЧЬ СТРАДАЛЬЦАМ»

The aim of this article is to trace the origins of Russophobic stereotypes and myths in Japan and to analyze their features and traits. In the article the authors scrutinize writings by Japanese politician and public figure Uchida Ryohei (1874–1937) which are dedicated to the Russian Empire and the “Manchurian question.” Uchida’s writings were found in the collections of the Russian State Military Historical Archive and the National Diet Library of Japan. The hypothesis of the article is that Uchida Ryohei was one of the main ideologists and creators of Russophobiс stereotypes and myths in the Japanese Empire. It was around Uchida Ryohei that proponents of anti-Russian views and people who were impatient to start the war against the Russian Empire united. The article goes on to demonstrate that Uchida Ryohei’s writings and political activities played a key role in the initiation of the Russo-Japanese war (1904–1905) and in shaping a negative image of Russia in Japanese public opinion at the beginning of the 20th century. What’s more, Uchida’s cultural heritage is still in demand in modern Japan

Hyper-complex four-manifolds from the Tzitz\'eica equation

The emerging role of MIR-146A in the control of hematopoiesis, immune function and cancer

MicroRNA (miRs) represent a class of small non-coding regulatory RNAs playing a major role in the control of gene expression by repressing protein synthesis at the post-transcriptional level. Studies carried out during the last years have shown that some miRNAs plays a key role in the control of normal and malignant hgematopoiesis. In this review we focus on recent progress in analyzing the functional role of miR-146a in the control of normal and malignant hematopoiesis. On the other hand, this miRNA has shown to impact in the control of innate immune responses. Finally, many recent studies indicate a deregulation of miR-146 in many solid tumors and gene knockout studies indicate a role for this miRNA as a tumor suppressor

Molecular mechanisms of cell death: recommendations of the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death 2018.

Over the past decade, the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (NCCD) has formulated guidelines for the definition and interpretation of cell death from morphological, biochemical, and functional perspectives. Since the field continues to expand and novel mechanisms that orchestrate multiple cell death pathways are unveiled, we propose an updated classification of cell death subroutines focusing on mechanistic and essential (as opposed to correlative and dispensable) aspects of the process. As we provide molecularly oriented definitions of terms including intrinsic apoptosis, extrinsic apoptosis, mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT)-driven necrosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, parthanatos, entotic cell death, NETotic cell death, lysosome-dependent cell death, autophagy-dependent cell death, immunogenic cell death, cellular senescence, and mitotic catastrophe, we discuss the utility of neologisms that refer to highly specialized instances of these processes. The mission of the NCCD is to provide a widely accepted nomenclature on cell death in support of the continued development of the field
