    Abstract En el artículo busca resaltar el hecho de que el espacio interpretativo desde el cual se ha tendido a problematizar la relación entre cuerpos e identidades en las ciencias sociales, ha sido privilegiadamente el del dolor (el cuerpo de la tortura), la discapacidad física, el envejecimiento, enfermedad y muerte, rituales de posesión, la abyección (o aquello que está fuera de lugar o resulta inclasificable) como el cuerpo “colectivo” de los hermanos siameses o la ambigüedad clasificatoria –en términos binarios– de los cuerpos intersexuales; la privación o el exceso (locura y hambre, obesidad, anorexia, vigorexia), etc. Como tal, este espacio interpretativo ha sido el espacio de los extremos. Parafraseando a Julia Kristeva (1982), los “horrores corporales” constituyeron el locus epistemológico desde el cual se reflexionó sobre la compleja relación entre cuerpo e identidad.

    Abstract: ... that clopidogrel will influence plaque size and composition in the atherosclerosis prone apolipoprotein E knockout ...

    Abstract Aim: Clopidogrel is a widely used anti-thrombotic for the prevention of stent thrombosis and cardiovascular events in patients with coronary atherosclerosis. Clopidogrel has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory effects that are related to the attenuated activation of platelets. Atherosclerosis is a complex process in which the immune system and the endothelium appear to play a prominent role. Herein, we tested the hypothesis that clopidogrel will influence plaque size and composition in the atherosclerosis prone apolipoprotein E knockout (apoE KO) mouse model.
    Methods and results: Eight week old mice were fed daily with either PBS, 1 mg or 2 mg of clopidogrel for 10 weeks. Plaque size was evaluated in the aortic sinus and cellular and humoral responses were studied as well as splenic and bone marrow endothelial progenitors by FACS. Treatment with either 1 mg and 2 mg of clopidogrel significantly reduced plaque size and augmented its stability by increasing atheromatous fibrous area. Whereas antigen specific oxLDL immune response was not influenced by clopidogrel feeding, the number of atheroprotective regulatory CD4+CD25+ T cells was significantly increased. Moreover, clopidogrel treatment resulted in a prominent rise in splenic but not bone marrow derived Sca-1+/flk-1+ endothelial progenitors.
    Conclusion: Clopidogrel significantly reduces atheroma burden and stabilizes aortic sinus plaques in apoE KO mice. These effects may partially be mediated by upregulation of the regulatory T cell pool and splenic endothelial progenitor cells. These findings may expand the potential applications of clopidogrel in human subjects.

  7. Book ; Online: Improving Inference Performance of Machine Learning with the Divide-and-Conquer Principle

    Abstract Many popular machine learning models scale poorly when deployed on CPUs. In this paper we explore the reasons why and propose a simple, yet effective approach based on the well-known Divide-and-Conquer Principle to tackle this problem of great practical importance. Given an inference job, instead of using all available computing resources (i.e., CPU cores) for running it, the idea is to break the job into independent parts that can be executed in parallel, each with the number of cores according to its expected computational cost. We implement this idea in the popular OnnxRuntime framework and evaluate its effectiveness with several use cases, including the well-known models for optical character recognition (PaddleOCR) and natural language processing (BERT).

    Abstract A rapid emergence of resistant bacteria is occurring worldwide, endangering the efficacy of antibiotics and reducing the therapeutic arsenal available for treatment of infectious diseases. In the present study, we developed a new class of compounds with antibacterial activity obtained by a simple, two step synthesis and screened the products for in vitro antibacterial activity against ATCC® strains using the broth microdilution method. The compounds exhibited minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 1–32 μg/mL against Gram-positive ATCC® strains. The structure–activity relationship indicated that the thiophenol ring is essential for antibacterial activity and the substituents on the thiophenol ring module, for antibacterial activity. The most promising compounds detected by screening were tested against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) clinical isolates. We found remarkable activity against VREF for compounds 7 and 16, were the MIC50/90 were 2/4 µg/mL and 4/4 µg/mL, respectively, while for vancomycin the MIC50/90 was 256/512 µg/mL. Neither compound affected cell viability in any of the mammalian cell lines at any of the concentrations tested. These in vitro data show that compounds 7 and 16 have an interesting potential to be developed as new antibacterial drugs against infections caused by VREF.

    Abstract The novel coronavirus infection is a rapidly spreading infectious disease that primarily affects the respiratory system and vascular endothelium and has a serious negative impact on healthcare economy and system around the world. To effectively combat the virus, there is a need for a full understanding of the pathogenesis of this infectious disease, and every day there are more and more works that shed light on certain mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 penetration, replication, and spread. One of these works is studies showing the role of extracellular vesicles (ECVs). The latter are the membrane-enclosed vesicles with a different composition, which are involved in many physiological processes and various diseases, including infectious ones. This review gives the available data on the pathomorphogenesis of COVID-19 and on the possible role of ECVs.

    Title translation Exosomes' role in intercellular interactions in different variants of lung injury in fatal cases of COVID-19.
    Abstract Background: Extracellular vesicles are surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer, carrying various active biomolecules and participating in many physiological and pathological processes, including infectious ones.
    Objective: To research the role of exosomes in intercellular interactions in the pathogenesis of various types of lung damage in fatal cases of COVID-19.
    Material and methods: We conducted a clinical and morphological analysis of 118 fatal cases caused by coronavirus infection in Moscow. We selected 32 cases with morphological signs of various types of lung lesions for immunohistochemical reaction (IHC) with antibodies against tetraspanin proteins (CD63, CD81), which are involved in the assembly of exosomes, as well as with antibodies against viral proteins: nucleocapsid and spike protein. We determined the main producing cells of extracellular vesicles and cells containing viral proteins, carried out their comparison and quantitative analysis.
    Results: IHC reaction with antibodies against CD63 showed cytoplasmic granular uniform and subapical staining of cells, as well as granular extracellular staining. We determined similar staining using antibodies against viral proteins. Extracellular vesicles were found in the same cells as viral proteins. The main producing cells of vesicles and cells containing viral proteins were found to be macrophages, type II pneumocytes, and endothelial cells.
    Conclusion: Taking into account the results of the literature, the localization of viral proteins and extracellular vesicles in the same cells indicates the key role of vesicles in the pathogenesis of various forms of lung damage by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in the dissemination of the pathogen in the organism, which leads to interaction with the adaptive immune system and the formation of immunity.
