Présentation
Dans les annĂ©es quatre-vingt et quatre-vingt-dix, les travaux universitaires sur lâĂ©criture et lâanalyse des textes ont radicalement modifiĂ© les pratiques pĂ©dagogiques de classe, de lâĂ©cole au lycĂ©e. Avec la ferme intention dâĂ©reinter la conception Ă©litiste de lâĂ©criture perçue comme un don, ils ont mis en Ă©vidence la complexitĂ© non seulement de lâĂ©criture, mais encore des dimensions dâun texte, des compĂ©tences que rĂ©clame lâacte dâĂ©crire et des processus rĂ©dactionnels engagĂ©s. Lâapport didac..
Compte-rendu du séminaire de rencontre entre acteurs des trois territoires (27-28 septembre 2021), projet TORSADES (TerritORialisation de SystÚmes Agri-alimentaires DurablES)
mĂ©tabolisme agri-alimentaire; reconnexion agriculture-alimentation ; Ă©tudes de casConsidĂ©rant la nĂ©cessitĂ© de reconnecter une production agricole durable et la consommation alimentaire, le projet Torsades a pour objectif dâanalyser les« contours » (modalitĂ©s, impacts, contraintes et leviers) de cette reconnexion. Torsades centre son analyse sur lâĂ©chelle locale, au travers de trois territoirescontrastĂ©s, reprĂ©sentatifs de trois types de situations dâun grand quart nord-est de la France : le pĂ©riurbain de lâouest parisien, la Brie dite « laitiĂšre » et lâouestvosgien. Au-delĂ du travail dâanalyse des chercheuses et chercheurs, Torsades ambitionne de fournir des Ă©lĂ©ments de connaissances et des pistes de rĂ©flexion aux acteurs de terrain. Pour soutenir cette dynamique et Ă©changer avec les acteurs, lâĂ©quipe du projet Torsades a organisĂ© deux jours de sĂ©minaire participatif les 27 et 28 septembre 2021
Analysis of Morbidity and Clinical Implications of Laparoscopic Para-Aortic Lymphadenectomy in a Continuous Series of 98 Patients with Advanced-Stage Cervical Cancer and Negative PETâCT Imaging in the Para-Aortic Area
A series of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, with no positive para-aortic nodes on positron emission tomographyâcomputed tomography who had undergone a primary laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy was retrospectively reviewed. Morbidity was limited and the completion of treatment was not delayed when complications occurred
A Parent-of-Origin Effect Impacts the Phenotype in Low Penetrance Retinoblastoma Families Segregating the c.1981C>T/p.Arg661Trp Mutation of RB1
International audienceRetinoblastoma (Rb), the most common pediatric intraocular neoplasm, results from inactivation of both alleles of the RB1 tumor suppressor gene. The second allele is most commonly lost, as demonstrated by loss of heterozygosity studies. RB1 germline carriers usually develop bilateral tumors, but some Rb families display low penetrance and variable expressivity. In order to decipher the underlying mechanisms, 23 unrelated low penetrance pedigrees segregating the common c.1981C>T/p.Arg661Trp mutation and other low penetrance mutations were studied. In families segregating the c.1981C>T mutation, we demonstrated, for the first time, a correlation between the gender of the transmitting carrier and penetrance, as evidenced by Fisherâs exact test: the probability of being unaffected is 90.3% and 32.5% when the mutation is inherited from the mother and the father, respectively (p-value = 7.10â7). Interestingly, a similar correlation was observed in families segregating other low penetrance alleles. Consequently, we investigated the putative involvement of an imprinted, modifier gene in low penetrance Rb. We first ruled out a MED4-driven mechanism by MED4 methylation and expression analyses. We then focused on the differentially methylated CpG85 island located in intron 2 of RB1 and showing parent-of-origin-specific DNA methylation. This differential methylation promotes expression of the maternal c.1981C>T allele. We propose that the maternally inherited c.1981C>T/p.Arg661Trp allele retains sufficient tumor suppressor activity to prevent retinoblastoma development. In contrast, when the mutation is paternally transmitted, the low residual activity would mimic a null mutation and subsequently lead to retinoblastoma. This implies that the c.1981C>T mutation is not deleterious per se but needs to be destabilized in order to reach pRb haploinsufficiency and initiate tumorigenesis. We suggest that this phenomenon might be a general mechanism to explain phenotypic differences in low penetrance Rb families
