Diversos estudos sugerem que as células-tronco da medula óssea podem ser úteis no tratamento de lesões do tecido nervoso. O presente estudo investigou se a terapia com células medulares seria capaz de modificar os efeitos comportamentais de lesões no hipocampo. Células mononucleares da medula óssea marcadas com a proteína fluorescente verde (EGFP) foram transplantadas em camundongos C57BL/6 que tiveram o hipocampo dorsal danificado por lesão eletrolítica bilateral. Os resultados da avaliação comportamental no labirinto em cruz elevado mostraram que a lesão hipocampal produziu ansiólise, quadro que foi atenuado nos animais transplantados. Na análise imuno-histoquímica do tecido cerebral, foi observada presença limitada de células EGFP+ no cérebro dos animais lesionados. Dada a não recuperação da citoarquitetura tissular, acredita-se que os benefícios observados sobre o comportamento tenham resultado de um efeito parácrino das células mononucleares, que auxiliaram na ação de mecanismos endógenos para restituição parcial das funções do hipocampo. / Several studies suggest that stem cells from bone marrow may be useful in treating lesions of the nervous tissue. This study investigated if bone marrow cell therapy would be able to modify the behavioral effects of lesions in the hippocampus. Bone marrow mononuclear cells labeled with the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) were transplanted into C57BL/6 mice which had the dorsal hippocampus damaged by bilateral electrolytic lesion. The results of the behavioral assessment in the elevated plus-maze showed that the hippocampal lesion produced anxiolysis, an effect that was attenuated in transplanted animals. Immunohistochemical analysis of brain tissue revealed, however, a limited presence of EGFP+ cells into the brains of injured animals. Given the non-recovery of the tissue cytoarchitecture, it is believed that the observed benefits on the behavior resulted from a paracrine effect of the mononuclear cells, which possibly helped in the action of endogenous mechanisms for partial reimbursement of the hippocampal functions.

Starting from the life and work of Jo?o da Cruz e Sousa, we try to discuss how some issues raised by him in the late nineteenth century, still can help us reflect on the ethnic-racial relations in Brazilian society. This research aimed to compare my story, the narrative of my students, considered here as a collective subject, and the story of the poet Jo?o da Cruz e Sousa. The interweaving of narratives mentioned, despite the spatio-temporal difference that separates them, sought the possible dialogues that can help us to think how racism still holds and updates daily at school? How prejudice, racism and discrimination are materialized in the production of inequalities within the school environment? How prejudice, racism and discrimination are materialized in the production of inequalities within the school environment? Thus, this study dialogue with authors such as Muniz Sodre (2000; 2010), Kabengele Munanga (2006), Nilma Lino Gomes (2003; 2012), Frantz Fanon (2008) and other scholars in the field of ethnic-racial relations, articulating them with studies of Modernity/Coloniality Group (2007; 2008), Hanna Arendt (2007) also helped us develop some issues with the concepts of "public space" and "appearance". To connect the narratives we rely on the research of Joseph Valter Pereira (2000, 2006 and 2010), Jorge Larrosa (1994; 2014), Walter Benjamin (1985), Leonor Arfuch (2010) and also Luciano Bedin da Costa (2010). About the life and work of the poet, we consulted bibliographical studies, documents such as newspapers, magazines literary critic of the late nineteenth century etc, that somehow relate to the researched problem. As narratives of the students we consider the set of texts and conversations that took place within the school environment from activities or situations involving ethnic-racial relations. Furthermore, we assume here the political challenge of exercising an essay written in order to problematize the hegemonic aesthetic as the only way in knowledge production. / A presente pesquisa, Jo?o da Cruz e Sousa e outras narrativas sobre o racismo brasileiro, est? vinculada ao Projeto de Pesquisa Rela??es Raciais nas Escolas e Forma??o de Professores do professor Jos? Valter Pereira. Partindo da vida e obra de Jo?o da Cruz e Sousa, tentamos problematizar como algumas quest?es suscitadas por ele, no final s?culo XIX, ainda podem nos ajudar a refletir sobre as rela??es ?tnico-raciais na sociedade brasileira. Esta investiga??o tencionou entramar a minha hist?ria, as narrativas dos meus alunos, considerados aqui como sujeito coletivo, e a hist?ria do poeta Jo?o da Cruz e Sousa. No enredamento das narrativas mencionadas, apesar da diferen?a espa?o-temporal que as separa, buscamos os poss?veis di?logos que possam nos ajudar a pensar como o racismo ainda se mant?m e se atualiza no cotidiano da escola? De que forma o preconceito, o racismo e a discrimina??o se materializam na produ??o de desigualdades dentro do ambiente escolar?

Sobre a vida e a obra do poeta, consultamos estudos bibliogr?ficos, documentos como jornais, revistas de cr?tica liter?ria do final do s?culo XIX etc., que, de alguma forma, relacionam-se com o problema pesquisado. Como narrativa dos alunos, consideramos o conjunto de textos e conversas que aconteceram dentro do espa?otempo escolar a partir de atividades ou situa??es que envolveram rela??es ?tnico-raciais. Al?m disso, assumimos aqui o desafio pol?tico de exercitar uma escrita ensa?stica a fim de problematizar a est?tica hegem?nica como caminho ?nico na produ??o do conhecimento.

The interplay between social and productive spheres in arid land agrarian societies with non-mechanized technologies is exemplified in a case study of the prehistoric Hohokam Indians of southern Arizona. In addition to chapters unique to the dissertation, ten papers are included that were published during the period of doctoral enrollment. Results from a variety of investigative techniques are combined to characterize Hohokam agriculture and its relationship to societal forms and dynamics. Among these are archaeological survey and settlement pattern analysis, technical studies of prehistoric fields, palynological analysis for reconstruction of agricultural environments, and comparison with methods and concepts employed by historic and modern traditional farmers in the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. Hohokam farming is examined at sequential scales, beginning with the setting, layout, and yield of individual fields and ending with comparison between Hohokam agricultural configurations and those of other arid land cultures. Topics receiving emphasis within the broader dissertation theme are the nature of Hohokam agrarian landscapes, the recently recognized role of cultivated agave in subsistence systems, and the social and economic framework for agricultural decision-making and strategies.

Almost 90% of the treated sewage effluent processed by the two treatment plants serving the greater Tucson area is available for passive recharge through the Santa Cruz River streambed north of Tucson. In the absence of any major disturbance of the effluent channel, the recharge capacity of the streambed materials decreases over time as microbial activity, and possibly suspended sediments settling out of solution, act to clog the surficial sediments under the effluent stream. Effluent stream transmission-loss measurements made over the period from November 1994 to August 1995 provided data used to determine the average vertical hydraulic conductivity of the low-flow channel in the study reach through simulations using the computer model known as KINEROS2. Saturated hydraulic conductivity (KSAT) served as the calibration parameter in the model. The appropriate KSAT value was chosen for each set of field data by matching the observed and simulated downstream hydrographs for the study reach. KSAT values were corrected for viscosity changes resulting from changing average daily surface water temperatures over the study period. Saturated hydraulic conductivity values for the effluent stream channel ranged from a maximum of 37 mm/hr in January, 1995, following several major winter storms, to a minimum of 11 mm/hr in August, 1995, after a nearly six-month interstorm period. The saturated hydraulic conductivity values decay exponentially with time after the last major winter storm. The mathematical model describing this decay may be used to estimate effluent recharge rates under similar future meteorological and climatological conditions.

This M.A. thesis consists of a close-textual reading of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s four sets of villancicos dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (1676, 1679, 1685 and 1690), with a special focus on Sor Juana’s marianism and a contrast with Juan Correa’s painting, La Asunción de la Virgen (1689). This thesis will cover Sor Juana’s innovation in her representation of Mary as a model of femininity, Mary’s creative abilities, the crowning of Mary, Mary as a dwelling for God, Sor Juana’s feminization of the divine, Mary’s Assumption itself, masculine aspects and professions attributed to Mary, and Sor Juana’s identification with the Virgen.

El objeto de esta investigación es visibilizar la presencia femenina en las dinámicas de cambio social acaecidas en las islas occidentales del Archipiélago Canario durante la II República, la Guerra Civil y la dictadura franquista. El presente trabajo inicia el camino para cubrir un vacío en la historia reciente de nuestras islas: la presencia histórica de las mujeres durante la Segunda República y la Dictadura franquista, ya que los estudios feministas y de género sobre estas cuestiones son, en las islas, todavía muy escasos y además parciales al tratar sobre cuestiones muy diversas, de manera que el conocimiento sobre la labor de las mujeres de la provincia de Santa Cruz de Tenerife en este periodo histórico no había sido tratado de manera general. Nuestra investigación abarca tanto la construcción socio-cultural de los diferentes modelos de feminidad existentes en Canarias en el periodo estudiado como el modo de comprender el impacto de las dinámicas políticas, sociales y económicas en la concepción social de la mujer canaria. Profundizando en algunos aspectos más específicos y determinantes en la vida cotidiana de la población femenina; aspectos como la violencia de género, la presencia de las mujeres en el ámbito laboral, la religiosidad, la educación, etc. Gracias a estos elementos analizados se pueden establecer diferentes parámetros que explican las ideas de feminidad existentes en las islas, las modificaciones que sufren y las actuaciones socio-políticas más destacadas de las mujeres isleñas en las etapas históricas estudiadas. Algunos de los parámetros destacados en el estudio fueron: el alto índice de analfabetismo, la existencia de una rígida moral sexual frente a la supervivencia de determinadas conductas culturalmente más laxas en lo referente al sexo fuera del matrimonio, el aumento de la presión social y moral al imponerse el ultracatolicismo de la España franquista, el machismo confrontado con la emigración masiva de hombres a América Latina, la infravaloración del trabajo de las isleñas, la de la participación activa de las mujeres en las revueltas sociales en la etapa republicana, la destrucción tras el golpe de estado del 18 de julio de los logros alcanzados por las mujeres durante la República, la represión sistemática a las mujeres que cuestionaban el orden político o social impuesto por las fuerzas franquistas, etc. Este trabajo se divide en dos grandes etapas: la II República y su impacto entre las mujeres de las islas (realizamos un análisis comparando cuatro tipologías ideales que representan cuatro maneras de entender la feminidad: mujeres modernas, obreras, católicas y falangistas) y la dictadura franquista desde el golpe militar del 36, momento en que se configura el nuevo régimen en el archipiélago. Para completar la realidad femenina del periodo histórico investigado se estudia a aquellas mujeres que quedaron al margen en su paso por la prisión provincial de Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Para la elaboración del presente trabajo de investigación se han consultado diversos archivos y fuentes: el Archivo Histórico Provincial de Santa Cruz de Tenerife (fondo de la Sección Femenina, expedientes de reclusas de la prisión provincial, series del Gobierno Civil, expedientes del Tribunal de Represión de la Masonería y el Comunismo, etc.) / Thesis title: WOMEN AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN THE PROVINCE OF SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE.1931-1975. HOUSEWIVES, COMRADES AND MARGINALIZED. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the presence of women in the dynamics of social change that occurred in the western islands of the Canary Archipelago during the Second Republic, the Civil War and the Francoist dictatorship. We studied the presence of women in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife between 1931 and 1975. There are two main stages: in the first place the Second Republic, and its impact among women in the islands (performing an analysis comparing four ideal types representing four understandings of femininity, modem women, working c1ass, Catholics and Falangists) and in the second place the Francoist dictatorship since the military coup of 36, at which time the new regime is set in the archipelago (studying women's participation in various associations, standing out one called Sección Femenina). To complete the feminine reality of the studied historical period, we investigated women who were marginalized (government opponents, prostitutes, etc.) on their way through the provincial prison of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Special attention is paid to the socioeconomic asymmetries existing in the Canary Islands population of the first half of the twentieth century, to understand the reality of multiple and variable inequalities faced by the island women in this historical period, characterized by profound social conflicts and major changes within the sphere of politics, economics and socio-culture. It also discusses the presence of women at different social classes, the development of patriarchy within a chieftainship system and increasingly repressive (especially after the military uprising of 1936) and, therefore, the inequality and violence of a kind on another, exercising their power of repression and domination over all the women. For the preparation of this research have been consulted various sources in the Provincial Historic Archive of Santa Cruz de Tenerife (collection of the "Sección Femenina", records of inmates in the provincial prison, series of civil government, court records for the Repression of Freemasonry and Communism, etc..) municipal and parish archives, insular press, and so on.
