Funding Of Small-Scale Development Agencies In Nigeria: A Case Study Of Industrial Development Centres(IDCs)

This study assessed the adequacy of funding of Industrial Development Centres (IDCs) in Nigeria.The study was designed primarily to determine whether or not the IDCs were adequately funded to carry out   the roles assigned to them towards development of Small-Scale Businesses in Nigeria. The study indicated that each of the selected IDCs was not adequately funded to carry out the roles assigned to it towards the development of Small-Scale Businesses in the geographical areas it expected to offer its services. To overcome the problem of inadequate funding, it is recommended that IDCs should extend the sources of their funding.

Curcumin-Arteether Combination Therapy of Plasmodium berghei-Infected Mice Prevents Recrudescence Through Immunomodulation

Earlier studies in this laboratory have shown the potential of artemisinin-curcumin combination therapy in experimental malaria. In a parasite recrudescence model in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei (ANKA), a single dose of alpha,beta-arteether (ART) with three oral doses of curcumin prevented recrudescence, providing almost 95% protection. The parasites were completely cleared in blood with ART-alone (AE) or ART+curcumin (AC) treatments in the short-term, although the clearance was faster in the latter case involving increased ROS generation. But, parasites in liver and spleen were not cleared in AE or AC treatments, perhaps, serving as a reservoir for recrudescence. Parasitemia in blood reached up to 60% in AE-treated mice during the recrudescence phase, leading to death of animals. A transient increase of up to 2–3% parasitemia was observed in AC-treatment, leading to protection and reversal of splenomegaly. A striking increase in spleen mRNA levels for TLR2, IL-10 and IgG-subclass antibodies but a decrease in those for INFγ and IL-12 was observed in AC-treatment. There was a striking increase in IL-10 and IgG subclass antibody levels but a decrease in INFγ levels in sera leading to protection against recrudescence. AC-treatment failed to protect against recrudescence in TLR2−/− and IL-10−/− animals. IL-10 injection to AE-treated wild type mice and AC-treated TLR2−/− mice was able to prolong survival. Blood from the recrudescence phase in AE-treatment, but not from AC-treatment, was able to reinfect and kill naïve animals. Sera from the recrudescence phase of AC-treated animals reacted with several parasite proteins compared to that from AE-treated animals. It is proposed that activation of TLR2-mediated innate immune response leading to enhanced IL-10 production and generation of anti-parasite antibodies contribute to protective immunity in AC-treated mice. These results indicate a potential for curcumin-based combination therapy to be tested for prevention of recrudescence in falciparum and relapse in vivax malaria

An Assessment of the Impact of Industrial Development Centres (IDCS) On Generation of Employment by Small –Scale Businesses in Nigeria

The study assessed the impact of Industrial Development Centres (IDCs) on employment generation by small-scale businesses in Nigeria .The study was designed primarily to determine whether or not the generation of employment of small-scale beneficiaries of the IDCs increased significantly after obtaining IDCs’ services. The study indicated that the services offered by many (66.7%) of the IDCs led to significant increase in employment generation by large number of beneficiary small- scale businesses at 1% level but at 5% level the services offered by many (66.7%) IDCs did not lead to significant increase in employment generation by large number of small-scale beneficiaries. The study also indicated that there were significant differences among the IDCs regarding changes in employment generated by their beneficiary small-scale businesses after receiving services.
