Análise da expressão de proteínas da via de sinalização de insulina em próstata de ratos tratados com dexametasona /Costa, Maitê Megeto. January 2011 (has links)
Orientador: José Roberto Bosqueiro / Banca: Mirtes Costa / Banca: Célia Regina Nogueira / Resumo: Os glicocorticóides são amplamente utilizados na prática clínica como agentes antiinflamatórios e imunossupressores, e estão entre as drogas utilizadas nos tratamentos de cânceres, como o de próstata. Contudo, seu uso prolongado ou excessivo pode desencadear o diabetes mellitus tipo 2, caracterizado pela hiperglicemia devido à resistência periférica à insulina. Recente estudo do nosso grupo de pesquisa, utilizando modelo de diminuição da sensibilidade periférica à insulina pela administração de dexametasona (DEX, 1 mg/kg, ip) por 5 dias, demonstrou, na próstata ventral de ratos, atrofia epitelial e das células musculares lisas, além de alterações de elementos celulares do estroma prostático, como os fibroblastos. A partir deste estudo, inúmeras perguntas surgiram acerca dos mecanismos de sinalização presentes no tecido prostático neste modelo, especialmente em relação à insulina. Assim, neste trabalho investigamos as vias de sinalização da insulina e a proliferação celular epitelial na próstata ventral de ratos no modelo de resistência à insulina induzida pelo tratamento com dexametasona, buscando possível correlação com a expressão dos receptores de glicocorticóides (GR) e de andrógenos (AR). A resistência à insulina foi induzida em ratos Wistar machos adultos (n=4) pela administração de dexametasona (DEX, 1 mg/kg, ip), durante 5 dias, enquanto os ratos controles (CTL) receberam solução salina. O tratamento com a dexametasona resultou em diminuição significativa no peso corporal, mas não do peso prostático.

However, excessive or prolonged use can trigger diabetes mellitus type 2, characterized by hyperglycemia due to peripheral insulin resistance. Recent study of our research group, using model of decreased peripheral insulin sensitivity by administration of dexamethasone (DEX, 1 mg / kg, ip) for 5 days, showed, in rat ventral prostate, epithelial atrophy and of smooth muscle cells, in addition to alterations of cellular elements of the prostatic stroma, such as fibroblasts. From this study, many questions have arisen about the signaling mechanisms present in prostate tissue in this model, especially in relation to insulin. Thus, this study investigated the insulin signaling pathway and epithelial cell proliferation in the rat prostate in a model of insulin resistance induced by treatment with dexamethasone, searching for possible correlation with the expression of glucocorticoid (GR) and androgen (AR) receptors. Insulin resistance was induced in adult male Wistar rats (n=4) by the administration of dexamethasone (DEX, 1 mg/kg, ip) for 5 days, while the control (CTL) rats received saline. Dexamethasone treatment resulted in a significant decrease in body weight, but not of prostatic weight. Reductions in the expression of proteins IRS-1/AKT/mTOR, constituents of the signaling pathway of insulin, AR and GR levels protein were observed in the prostate of insulin resistant rats, compared with the CTL group. The frequency of ARpositive cells in the acinar epithelium of the prostate decreased in the group treated with DEX. Furthermore, the intensity of reaction for this receptor in the cell nuclei was lower in this group. The treatment with glucocorticoid reduced the frequency of PCNA-positive cells by 30-fold...

Going cyber : the dynamics of cyber proliferation and international securitySmeets, Max January 2017 (has links)
For over a decade, we have heard alarming statements about the spread of cyber weapons from senior policymakers and experts. Yet, the dynamics of cyber proliferation are still under-studied and under-theorized. This study offers a theoretical and empirical account of what causes the spread and restraint of cyber weapons and argues that the world is not at the brink of mass cyber proliferation. Whilst almost forty states are exploring and pursuing the development of cyber weapons, I indicate that only few have so far acquired a meaningful capability. This is due both to supply and demand factors. On the supply-side, most states have a latent capacity to develop relatively simple offensive cyber capabilities, but are unable to develop sophisticated cyber weapons. Moreover, the incentives for knowledge transfer and thus exporting offensive cyber capabilities between states are weak. On the demand-side, I show that national security considerations do not provide the best explanation of variance. Instead, domestic politics and prestige considerations are paramount. Moreover, and unlike nuclear proliferation, I argue that it is not the possession of cyber weapons but the intention of possession signalled through visible initiatives which matters. Ultimately, I note that cyber weapons can have strategic value - but only under certain conditions.

The counter-narrative: U.S. non-proliferation policy towards Pakistan from Ford to ClintonAkhtar, Rabia January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Security Studies Interdepartmental Program / David R. Stone / Best known for being a ‘rollercoaster’ and a ‘marriage of convenience’, various scholars have
tried to reflect upon the true nature of Pak-U.S. relationship under this banner. However, no
matter how one examines this relationship one thing is certain –– the experience for both
countries has been harrowing. After India settled for non-alignment early in the Cold War,
Pakistan seized the opportunity and aligned itself with the United States in the East-West
struggle and pledged allegiance to fight communism in Asia. But that was not the only motive ––
Pakistan secretly hoped that an alliance with the U.S. would provide it security against India with
whom Pakistan had an antagonistic relationship over their outstanding territorial dispute of
Kashmir. When the U.S. did not rescue Pakistan as it had hoped for during its war with India in
1965 and sanctioned both countries with an arms embargo, Pakistan felt betrayed. From that
period onwards, Pakistan’s list of grievances against the U.S. developed into a narrative of
betrayal and abandonment fed by several episodes in their relationship during and after the Cold
War –– a period in which Pakistan developed and tested its nuclear weapons –– duly exploited
by Pakistani leaders as a tool for populist politics.
This dissertation provides the first scholarly account of Pakistan’s narrative and tests its
merit against the U.S. non-proliferation policy towards Pakistan under five administrations from
Ford to Clinton and finds that Pakistan’s narrative of betrayal and abandonment is uneven and
misleading with respect to the objectives and successes of U.S. non-proliferation policy. This
dissertation uses multi-archival documents to offer a counter-narrative which argues that
Pakistan, although a small state, was able to brilliantly maneuver its way through restricted
spaces in its relationship with the U.S. in the past five decades to not only acquire a decent
conventional capability through U.S. military assistance but also nuclear weapons due to the
fickleness of U.S. non-proliferation policy. This research concludes that the compromises made
by the U.S. to accommodate Pakistan and its inconsistency in enforcement of non-proliferation
laws has implications for the efficacy and success of U.S. non-proliferation policy with
prospective proliferants.
