The role of civil society organizations (cso) in spanish action plan against drugs: perceived strengths andimprovement proposals

Objetivo: Analizar la implementación de la Estrategia Europea sobre drogas 2013-2020 en el Plan de Acción Español sobre drogas 2017-2020, especialmente el papel de las Organizaciones de Sociedad Civil, contemplando las fortalezas percibidas y las propuestas de mejora. Metodología: El estudio se ha realizado con metodología cualitativa. Se utilizó la técnica del grupo focal, formado por un panel de siete expertos trabajadores de Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil. Para ello se llevó a cabo un análisis fundamentado cuyos principales resultados giran en torno a un esquema de seis temas, formados por subtemas y códigos. Los temas seleccionados fueron, en primer lugar, un enfoque general; disponibilidad, accesibilidad y calidad de las intervenciones; reducción de daños; sanciones alternativas; investigación y evaluación y, por último; participación de la sociedad civil. Resultados: Los participantes refirieron un adecuado diseño del Plan Nacional de Drogas, sin embargo, detectan una desconexión con la práctica en las distintas temáticas. Entre los puntos señalados, la falta de recursos económicos se percibe como el principal escollo en la implementación. Conclusiones: La participación de la sociedad civil resulta necesaria para la adecuación e implementación de las políticas públicasObjective: To analyze the implementation of the European Strategy on Drugs 2013-2020 on the Spanish Action Plan on Drugs 2017-2020, especially the role of Civil Society Organizations, considering the perceived strengths and pro- posals for improvement. Methodology: The study was carried out using qualitative methodology. The focus group technique was used, formed by a panel of seven experts working in Civil Society Organizations. For this purpose, a grounded analysis was carried out, the main results of which revolve around a scheme of six themes, made up of sub-themes and codes. The selected themes were, firstly, a general approach; availability, accessibility and quality of interventions; harm reduction; alternative sanctions; research and evaluation; and finally, civil society participation. Results: The participants referred to an adequate design of the National Drug Plan, however, they detected a discon-nection with practice in the different thematic areas. Among the points mentioned, the lack of economic resources is perceived as the main obstacle to implementation. Conclusions: The participation of civil society is necessary for the adaptation and implementation of public policies

Proteomic Analyses of Thioredoxins f and m Arabidopsis thaliana Mutants Indicate Specific Functions for These Proteins in Plants

A large number of plastidial thioredoxins (TRX) are present in chloroplast and the specificity versus the redundancy of their functions is currently under discussion. Several results have highlighted the fact that each TRX has a specific target protein and thus a specific function. In this study we have found that in vitro activation of the fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) enzyme is more efficient when f1 and f2 type thioredoxins (TRXs) are used, whilst the m3 type TRX did not have any effect. In addition, we have carried out a two-dimensional electrophoresis-gel to obtain the protein profiling analyses of the trxf1, f2, m1, m2, m3 and m4 Arabidopsis mutants. The results revealed quantitative alteration of 86 proteins and demonstrated that the lack of both the f and m type thioredoxins have diverse effects on the proteome. Interestingly, 68% of the differentially expressed proteins in trxf1 and trxf2 mutants were downregulated, whilst 75% were upregulated in trxm1, trxm2, trxm3 and trxm4 lines. The lack of TRX f1 provoked a higher number of down regulated proteins. The contrary occurred when TRX m4 was absent. Most of the differentially expressed proteins fell into the categories of metabolic processes, the Calvin–Benson cycle, photosynthesis, response to stress, hormone signalling and protein turnover. Photosynthesis, the Calvin–Benson cycle and carbon metabolism are the most affected processes. Notably, a significant set of proteins related to the answer to stress situations and hormone signalling were affected. Despite some studies being necessary to find specific target proteins, these results show signs that are suggest that the f and m type plastidial TRXs most likely have some additional specific functionThis work has been funded by research project BIO2009-07297, BIO2015-65272 from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and the European Fund for Regional Development, project P07-CVI-2795 and BIO 154 from the Andalusian Regional Government, Spain, and project BIO2012-33292, from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and CompetitivenessWe acknowledge support by the CSIC Open Access Publication Initiative through its Unit of Information Resources for Research (URICI)Peer reviewe

Current knowledge on mechanisms preventing photosynthesis redox imbalance in plants

Photosynthesis includes a set of redox reactions that are the source of reducing power and energy for the assimilation of inorganic carbon, nitrogen and sulphur, thus generating organic compounds, and oxygen, which supports life on Earth. As sessile organisms, plants have to face continuous changes in environmental conditions and need to adjust the photosynthetic electron transport to prevent the accumulation of damaging oxygen by-products. The balance between photosynthetic cyclic and linear electron flows allows for the maintenance of a proper NADPH/ATP ratio that is adapted to the plant’s needs. In addition, different mechanisms to dissipate excess energy operate in plants to protect and optimise photosynthesis under adverse conditions. Recent reports show an important role of redox-based dithiol–disulphide interchanges, mediated both by classical and atypical chloroplast thioredoxins (TRXs), in the control of these photoprotective mechanisms. Moreover, membrane-anchored TRX-like proteins, such as HCF164, which transfer electrons from stromal TRXs to the thylakoid lumen, play a key role in the regulation of lumenal targets depending on the stromal redox poise. Interestingly, not all photoprotective players were reported to be under the control of TRXs. In this review, we discuss recent findings regarding the mechanisms that allow an appropriate electron flux to avoid the detrimental consequences of photosynthesis redox imbalances.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación PID2020-115156GB-I00, PGC2018-096851-B-C2
