Abstract:
In recent years, as human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have been commonly cultured in feeder-free conditions, a number of cell culture substrates have been applied or developed. However, the functional roles of these substrates in maintaining hPSC self-renewal remain unclear. Here in this review, we summarize the types of these substrates and their effect on maintaining hPSC self-renewal. Endogenous extracellular matrix (ECM) protein expression has been shown to be crucial in maintaining hPSC self-renewal. These ECM molecules interact with integrin cell-surface receptors and transmit their cellular signaling. We discuss the possible effect of integrin-mediated signaling pathways on maintaining hPSC self-renewal. Activation of integrin-linked kinase (ILK), which transmits ECM-integrin signaling to AKT (also known as protein kinase B), has been shown to be critical in maintaining hPSC self-renewal. Also, since naïve pluripotency has been widely recognized as an alternative pluripotent state of hPSCs, we discuss the possible effects of culture substrates and integrin signaling on naïve hPSCs based on the studies of mouse embryonic stem cells. Understanding the role of culture substrates in hPSC self-renewal and differentiation enables us to control hPSC behavior precisely and to establish scalable or microfabricated culture technologies for regenerative medicine and drug development.

Abstract:
Spermatogenesis is a continuous and dynamic developmental process, in which a single diploid spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) proliferates and differentiates to form a mature spermatozoon. Herein, we summarize the accumulated knowledge of SSCs and their distribution in the testes of teleosts. We also reviewed the primary endocrine and paracrine influence on spermatogonium self-renewal vs. differentiation in fish. To provide insight into techniques and research related to SSCs, we review available protocols and advances in enriching undifferentiated spermatogonia based on their unique physiochemical and biochemical properties, such as size, density, and differential expression of specific surface markers. We summarize in vitro germ cell culture conditions developed to maintain proliferation and survival of spermatogonia in selected fish species. In traditional culture systems, sera and feeder cells were considered to be essential for SSC self-renewal, in contrast to recently developed systems with well-defined media and growth factors to induce either SSC self-renewal or differentiation in long-term cultures. The establishment of a germ cell culture contributes to efficient SSC propagation in rare, endangered, or commercially cultured fish species for use in biotechnological manipulation, such as cryopreservation and transplantation. Finally, we discuss organ culture and three-dimensional models for in vitro investigation of fish spermatogenesis.

Abstract:
If Catholic educators are to equip students to engage with contemporary culture in a way that is credible and winsome, they need first, to be able to draw upon the living tradition of their faith appreciatively, critically and creatively, and second, to articulate a renewed form of Christian humanism. This paper addresses the second of these prerequisites by taking two steps towards the development of a Christian humanism for our times. First, I propose a rationale for the task of rethinking the case for Christian humanism as a resource for both cultural engagement and for educational practice. Second, I consider three potential sources and guides for becoming confident and competent in communicating this renewal of Christian humanism: Jacques Maritain, Romano Guardini and Pope Francis.

Abstract:
This thesis instigates the discussion of the broad implications of cultural marginalization on Ogu music of Badagry, Lagos State Nigeria. Owing to the manner in which African States were carved out, without consideration for cultural boundaries, Ogu people were split through colonial delineation schemes with a minority within the Nigerian borders and the majority in Benin Republic. The same delineation process of the British and French administrations led to a multicultural Nigeria with over two hundred ethnic groups. In the ensuing battle for supremacy among the ethnic groups, in which number plays no minor role, the cultural integrity of the Ogu people began to wane. The complexity of social interactions in Nigeria witnessed the more populated and dominant ethnic groups casting their shadows on the smaller ones. The far-reaching consequence of such marginalization and social ostracism is cultural erosion and a xenocentric world-view of Ogu youths. Whilst elucidating the consequences of cultural marginalization, low self-esteem and the condescending mannerism of Ogu youths toward their traditional music, this thesis concomitantly discusses a possible method of forestalling the musical decay and restoring the integrity of Ogu music through the intervention of the jazz genre. Given the reality of globalization, mass transculturation, and the adoption of Western educational system by African States, musical syncretism cannot be evaded. Thus, this dissertation concludes by examining a method of documentation and reestablishment of Ogu musical integrity, which employs the adoption of jazz elements in creating a new Ogu musical style. Jazz is favoured as it is deemed with the potency of arousing the interest of the western-musicallytrained younger generation of Ogu people for whom jazz represents the highest level of harmonic complexity.

Abstract:
This is a qualitative study using ethnographic methods to collect data and critical autoethnography to reflect on my personal history in the light of what I learned about others (Anderson and Glass-Coffin, 2013; Ellis, 2009; Erickson, 2011; Manning and Adams, 2015; Rennel, 2015). My research focuses on race and culture in relation to perceptions in relationships, community, and education before and after urban renewal. I present my work in two-manuscripts: Growing Up White: I Didn't Know What I Didn't Know and Gainsboro: It's Just the Way Things Were. The first portion of the study looks at growing up in a White neighborhood in Roanoke, Virginia, during the early years of integration and the Civil Rights Movement, while being unaware of the existence of another world beyond my own. The second manuscript presents findings from interviews in the corresponding Black community and archival research interrogating systemic issues associated with urban renewal.

In this study, I examine the effects of urban renewal on race and culture in a mid-sized southern city. My work focuses on individual perceptions about relationships, community, and education. The first portion of the study looks at growing up in a white neighborhood during the early years of integration and the Civil Rights Movement, while being unaware of the existence of another world beyond this one. The following section presents findings from interviews with residents in the corresponding Black community and research on issues associated with urban renewal.

Abstract:
This thesis is an exploration of five church communities, three of which are represented in depth. These communities have as a common narrative plot a period of significant decline followed by renewal and growth.The frameworks employed to understand these corporate narratives are an Organizational Culture, a Family Systems and an Organizational Psychological lens. The efficacy of each lens is assessed as to its ability to interpret each narrative coherently. Then the narratives are interpreted with all lenses used in parallel. The results of the thesis indicate that periods of decline were associated with certain dysfunctions, particularly Bion like basic assumptions, neurotic constellations or control cultures. Pastors and congregations are both idealized or demonized in the inner theatres of the community psyche. In periods of renewal, more rational and 'depressive' engagements with the environment of the church are indicative of strategic ministry that supplies both a more adequate holding environment and significant transitional objects that assist community maturation. Moreover, these maturational processes also reonnate with what is to be expected of a church community that exhibits the process attributes of an orthodox version of the Triune community.

Abstract:
Our contemporary culture is the product of enlightenment movements that have produced a discursive mode that favors skepticism, abstraction, and a mistrust of the body. This crisis of meaning has produced subjects that have lost the capacity for convincing symbolic exchanges. This project aims to reveal the vital importance of the imaginary for our possibilities of community, culture, and connectedness. I will use the work of Julia Kristeva to explain how we benefit from a symbolic that is supported by a robust and dynamic imaginary that springs from our embodied life. My thesis is that the foundation of the imaginary is best conceived as acoustical rather than visual. The contemporary experience that best recovers these representational capacities is found in our making, hearing, and sharing music. The current crisis of meaning can be ameliorated and subjectivity can be restored when aesthetic experiences and artistic practices rehabilitate the semiotic body as a source of meaning.

Abstract:
The goal of this research is to shed light on current developments in the field of Aboriginal Theatre Studies. This investigation encourages the reader to look again at the ways in which elements of Aboriginal culture are manifesting in contemporary theatre. Aboriginal theatre is increasingly visible in Canada and its cachet is growing with both artists and audiences. As a result, culturally specific worldviews and traditional practices are being introduced to mainstream Canadian theatre audiences. Through interviews with practicing Aboriginal artists like Floyd Favel, Yvette Nolan and Marie Clements and through an exploration of their individual theatrical processes, this research has attempted to identify how practicing Aboriginal artists consciously privilege Indigenous ways of knowing in their approaches to creating theatre for the contemporary stage.

Abstract:
The case study examines the outcomes of a process of re-structuring, renewal and cultural change in a school undergoing transformation from a senior high school to a middle school. The research investigates the impact of school improvement initiatives on the school and classroom culture and learning environment after 12 to 18 months of reform implementation.The research approach is a developmental mixed method investigation utilising quantitative and qualitative data collection procedures. The study proceeded through two stages: Quantitative surveying of students and parents prior to the implementation of school improvement initiatives; and quantitative and qualitative surveying of students and parents after 12 and 18 months, respectively, of reform implementation and application of the treatment.Evidence of change in the college and classroom culture and learning environment was evident after twelve months. The case study identified that students and parents identified changes in a number of elements of the classroom culture and learning environment. These included improvements in home-school communications, involvement in classroom planning and organization, relationships between teachers and students, school culture and evidence of pedagogical change. The research also identified that change had not occurred in the attainment of student learning outcomes, educational values and parent confidence to assist students in their learning.It became apparent that change in the organisational culture had occurred within the first 12 to 18 months. However, change to the deeper cultural dimensions of educational values and student learning outcomes were less in evidence.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores who 'wins' and 'loses' in urban regeneration, and the mechanisms behind this process. I take a comparative approach, focusing on two neighbourhoods – Hackney Wick Fish Island and Rudolfkiez – that are adjacent to the large-scale regeneration schemes London 2012 and Mediaspree in Berlin. By analysing how urban regeneration is experienced on the ground, my aim is to disrupt the notion that Olympic-led regeneration is any different from other forms of neoliberal urban development. I adopt Pierre Bourdieu's view of the social world as made up of competitive 'games' to demonstrate that urban regeneration is a game with winners and losers in which language constructions play a decisive role. I use the lenses of 'culture' and 'community' to analyse the dynamics of urban regeneration by documenting how the two concepts are strategically employed, and who has a monopoly over 'legitimate' definitions. I draw on a mixed methodology, including interviews, visual methods, document analysis and participant observation. Analysis of the empirical data demonstrates that despite significantly different historical contexts, political ideologies and fiscal climates, the power dynamics of urban development converge in Berlin and London. My analysis shows that, while there is a tendency for 'the winners to keep winning and the losers to keep losing', protest networks and critical artistic practices can change the language of the game and therefore have the potential to shift the dominant neoliberal logic. My aim is to reveal these subtleties and nuances of the game.

Full text
Abstract:
Nowadays, with globalization sweeping across cities, more and more cities tend to develop in the same way, while the sense of existence of local identity becomes weaker. It is often the preferred choice of the city government to construct distinctive characteristics with the help of urban design. Historical blocks have their own unique cultural connotations. How to make them retain their own traditional context in the rapid urban renewal and maintain vitality with the development of the city is an urgent problem to be solved in urban design. In this paper, the research objects are two historical blocks in Harbin which is a representative historical city located on the Northeast China. One of objects is the Central Street of Harbin, which attracts countless foreign visitors every year as a popular tourist area. The other object is the Chinese Baroque Historical Block, which is deserted after renovation and planning. On the basis of urban design, this paper makes a comparative analysis of two historical blocks from the perspective of social humanities, and puts forward the humanistic technology of urban design. Humanistic technology are divided into two technical routes: human and culture. The study of human includes the living needs of local residents, the behavioural feelings of foreign users, the control and management of government development and the distribution of interests of investors. The study of culture includes the combing of the history and culture of the block, the embodiment of space culture and the promotion of value culture. This paper attempts to build a universal theory framework. Humanistic technology will be used as research foundation for urban design in the renovation and conservation planning of cultural heritage.

Full text
Abstract:
Prostacyclin (PGI2) is a major product of arachidonic acid metabolism in vascular endothelial cells. In addition to the role of exogenous agents, its production could be modulated by culture conditions : proliferative state, medium renewal, subcultivation... The use of endothelial cell growth factor (ECGF) associated with heparin has been shown to improve human endothelial cell proliferation. Here we report that human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) grown in that medium produce less prostacyclin than without growth factor.HUVEC were cultured in RPMI-199 1:1 + 20% fetal calf serum, added or not with ECGF (Bovine hypothalamus extract BTI Cambridge, 24 ug/ml) and heparin (from porcine intestinal mucosa, Signa, 90 ug/ml). After 4 days in culture, medium was removed and replaced by Tyrode Hepes buffer and basal production was measured after 20 min. Cells were then submitted to 5 min thrombin to assess PGI2 production in stimulated conditions. PGI2 production was estimated by specific radioimmunoassay for 6 keto PGFjalpha. For each point, cell number in the culture was counted after Trypsin EDTA treatment. In the present study, cells grown in ECGF-heparin medium produce lower amount of PGI2, compared to heparin or control medium. This result was observed in both basal and stimulated conditions. For each medium (ECGF-heparin, heparin, control), correlations between PGI2 production per cell and log cell density were shown to be significantly negative.These observations suggest that ECGF effect on PGI2 production could be a consequence of its growth factor activity, notably by the fact that it leads to an endothelial monolayer made of more numerous cells. Since it is now suggested by a number of clinical observations that PGI2 is rather produced in pathological conditions, culture models showing a weak production of PGI2 appear in that connection doser to the physiological conditions.

Current synthetic grafts are not suitable for small-diameter (ID<6mm) vascular applications due to acute thrombosis. While a tissue-engineered vascular graft (TEVG), constructed by incorporating cells within a biodegradable scaffold, seems to be a possible solution to the challenge, its success greatly relies on an appropriate cell source and an efficient cellular delivery and carrier system. Terminally-differentiated vascular cells have poor self-renewal and expansion capabilities, exhibit phenotype switching in culture, and are difficult to harvest in necessary numbers, all of which represent limitations of their use in tissue engineering. Human adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit multipotentiality and self-renewal capabilities, are more readily available, and therefore could overcome these limitations [1]. Pericytes closely encircle endothelial cells in capillaries. It has been shown that pericytes purified from multiple tissue types displayed multipotentiality, suggesting that they are developmental precursors of MSC [2].

Abstract:
Embryonic stem (ES) cells research is a promising field for tissue engineering due to their proliferative capacity and differentiation abilities. The culture of Human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESC) in microchannel bioreactors can be valuable for hESC cell biology studies and hESC tissue engineering applications. We have previously demonstrated the long-term culture of mammalian (HFF-Human Foreskin Fibroblasts) cells in a microchannel (130μm) bioreactor under constant perfusion in a simple approach. However, hESC were found to be highly sensitive to flow and did not grow under flow rates which were proper for HFF long-term culture. Here, we propose the use of a novel automated periodic perfusion system to co-culture hESC with HFF in a microchannel bioreactor. The method is based on short temporal pulsed flows of medium renewal followed by long static incubation periods. The short pulsed exposure to shear enables shear sensitive cells (e.g., hESC) to withstand the medium flow. The present work studies experimentally and via numerical simulations the conditions required for hESC culture in a microchannel bioreactor using the periodic perfusion method. Conventional soft-lithography techniques were used to fabricate PDMS microchannels (100 μm) sealed reversibly with glass cover slides. HESC were seeded in the microchannel with HFF, incubated for several hours and then connected to a perfusion system which contained: a syringe pump, a permeable tube oxygenator, and waste container. The ability of the periodic perfusion protocols to prevent hESC de-attachment and maintain their culture was examined. Mass transport and fluid mechanics models were used to evaluate the culture conditions within the micro-bioreactor (shear stress, oxygen level, nutritious etc.). 3D finite element mass transport analysis (Comsol 3.3) was preformed to examine the oxygen levels in the microchannel as a function of time and design parameters. Altogether, the experimental results and the theoretical model indicate that the use of a periodic perfusion bioreactor is a suitable and promising method to culture hESC in a microreactor. Culturing undifferentiated human ES cell colonies in a micro-bioreactor is an initial step toward utilizing microfluidic techniques to investigate embryonic stem cell biology.

Abstract:
In the last years, a new phase of economic crisis, which is concerning sectors of manufacturing industries, is affecting Europe. Focusing on Italy, sectors which have strongly characterized our country, such as textile and accessories, are facing with an fluctuating period of crisis. Also in this case, as it happened from late ‘80s, the urban structures and identities are seriously affected and need interventions of regeneration in order to gain new life both from social, productive and commercial point of views. Having in mind the Italian case, while the first phase identified had the characteristics of a disruptive macro-phenomenon, the second phase is more subtle and gradual. In this paper we are going to focus on changes of design culture in light of these urban phenomena. While we can already make a first evaluation of regeneration projects developed after the crisis of heavy industry sectors, the most recent events of industrial recession and the consequent regeneration of the correspondent empty areas are still ongoing. In order to analyze and, where it is possible, compare these two phases, we are going to look at two Italian case studies. The first is Bicocca, an area of Milan, which in the ‘90s was interested by a massive plan of regeneration and transformation after the closure of Breda and Pirelli industries. The second is Biella, a Piedmont Province city, which has been one of the most important centers for the textile and wool industry; the crisis of this sector strongly emerged in the first years on 2000 even if it had already begun between ‘80s and ‘90s when the biggest textile factories closed down. The differences between these two examples are not merely physical and dimensional but are clearly influenced by a different timing in the regeneration processes, which occurred in these areas (or, in the case of Biella, is still occurring). The analysis proposed in this paper will be focus on the action-research developed within two didactic experiences. Notwithstanding the distinctions in terms of objectives and actors involved, in this paper we are going to delineate a systemic approach to study and design for the regeneration, improvement and innovation of places. We will try to understand if, through strategic design, it is possible to identify those soft levers and interventions able to rejoin the pieces of places, which lost their functionality and identity.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3284

Abstract:
With the implementation of benefit-oriented urban renewal, many historical blocks have lost their identifiability. The historical block is an external entity that is a presentation of urban culture. The disappearance and homogenization of the historical block have directly led to the city losing its place attachment, with the overall identifiability of urban areas becoming weakened. Therefore, it is essential to develop a strategy to protect historical block identifiability in urban planning. Traditional urban planning is dominated by government and developers and is highly dependent on planners’ experience-based judgment but lacks quantitative analysis of public participation. As a result, it is difficult to carry out an objective and comprehensive analysis when facing the complicated situation of historical blocks. The issue of public participation has become an essential issue in the process of urban construction and renewal in China and other developing countries. Based on an analysis of the concept and the characteristics and techniques prevalent in the data age, this article discusses (1) the method and mechanism of public participation in the protection of urban historical blocks and (2) the content and structures of public participation platforms for historical districts. Research indicates that the application of cloud technology and reasonable platform design is the focus of public participation in historical block protection, which can change public participation from passive to active, from “lagged” to “synchronized”.

Abstract:
In September 2020, the British Academy was asked by the Government Office for Science to produce an independent review to address the question: What are the long-term societal impacts of COVID-19? This short but substantial question led us to a rapid integration of evidence and an extensive consultation process. As history has shown us, the effects of a pandemic are as much social, cultural and economic as they are about medicine and health. Our aim has been to deliver an integrated view across these areas to start understanding the long-term impacts and how we address them. Our evidence review – in our companion report, The COVID decade – concluded that there are nine interconnected areas of long-term societal impact arising from the pandemic which could play out over the coming COVID decade, ranging from the rising importance of local communities, to exacerbated inequalities and a renewed awareness of education and skills in an uncertain economic climate. From those areas of impact we identified a range of policy issues for consideration by actors across society, about how to respond to these social, economic and cultural challenges beyond the immediate short-term crisis. The challenges are interconnected and require a systemic approach – one that also takes account of dimensions such as place (physical and social context, locality), scale (individual, community, regional, national) and time (past, present, future; short, medium and longer term). History indicates that times of upheaval – such as the pandemic – can be opportunities to reshape society, but that this requires vision and for key decisionmakers to work together. We find that in many places there is a need to start afresh, with a more systemic view, and where we should freely consider whether we might organise life differently in the future. In order to consider how to look to the future and shape the COVID decade, we suggest seven strategic goals for policymakers to pursue: build multi-level governance; improve knowledge, data and information linkage and sharing; prioritise digital infrastructure; reimagine urban spaces; create an agile education and training system; strengthen community-led social infrastructure; and promote a shared social purpose. These strategic goals are based on our evidence review and our analysis of the nine areas of long-term societal impact identified. We provide a range of illustrative policy opportunities for consideration in each of these areas in the report that follows.
