Abstract:
The recognition of the United States Supreme Court of “native title” in 1909 has been recognized as a landmark decision for indigenous peoples all over the world. Also called the Cariño doctrine, the ruling honors a Baguio Ibaloy whose ancestral land would eventually be expropriated for the construction of Baguio as an American hill station, later as the Philippines’ unofficial summer capital. Fast-forward to 2014. Descendants of an Ibaloy family reclaim the land on which Casa Vallejo stands. Built in 1909, the building was originally Dormitory 4 for American soldiers. Salvador Vallejo converted it into a hotel in 1923. Persons with fond memories of the hotel claim the refurbished building is a ‘national heritage’ and should not be the subject of ancestral land claims. The year 2014 also saw the largest turnout of Ibaloys in and around Baguio for the celebration on February 23 of Ibaloi Day, at the government-designated Ibaloi Heritage Garden in Burnham Park. Products of colonial and national educational systems, Ibaloy professionals and intellectuals played key roles in the institutionalization and implementation of such activities. Despite their breakthroughs for recognition nationally through certain constitutional provisions, and internationally, are indigenous peoples now trapped in the discourse of nation?

Abstract:
Purpose The Ibaloy is an indigenous ethnic group in the Northern Philippines. Due to modernization, changes in lifestyle, livelihood and spiritual inclination many have forgotten about their culture. Income-generating activities such as handicraft businesses and food security are among their needs and aspirations. With the potential that indigenous entrepreneurship has in improving their cultural and economic status, this study aims to identify which crafts in their material culture can be publicly shared as tourism products and to assess the landscape within which indigenous entrepreneurship can be undertaken. Design/methodology/approach The study utilized a qualitative methodology which involved a combination of participant observation and semi-structured interviews. An interview guide which consisted of open-ended questions that focused on themes such as identification of Ibaloy crafts, the crafts’ various categorization and significance, the challenges and opportunities and their perceptions on what they want done for their crafts and material culture in general was developed for this purpose. The primary respondents were the Ibaloys themselves and other key informants from government and other stakeholders. Findings Other than serving their purpose in an Ibaloy household and as objects used for special occasions, Ibaloy crafts have the potential to be developed as tourism products. While many challenges abound, availability of resources and collaborative support by the government and other institutions can bring opportunities that will lead Ibaloy crafts to become prime tourism products. Social implications The findings point to a compelling need for policymakers and concerned authorities to take immediate action to ensure the culture and heritage of the Ibaloys are protected. Originality/value The study adds to the literature about Filipino indigenous peoples, particularly the Ibaloys of Cordillera, and their aspirations for the inclusion of their material culture to the tourism industry. It can serve as a guide in addressing issues and concerns related to indigenous entrepreneurship that may be addressed through policy intervention and support from stakeholders.

Abstract:
This ethnographic literary critique of an old Ba-diw of the Ibaloy ethnolinguistic group in Southern Benguet, Philippines, was completed by adopting a humanistic lens of a nonfolklorist with the aid of discourse analysis. Serving as a revisit to Philippine folklore, this ambitious yet novelty ethno-critique focused on the language of Ba-diw as a discourse of ethnicity and taking inspiration from the radical views of the National Artist in Literature, Bienvenido Lumbera, the research proceeded by employing the contextualist theory, setting the Ba-diw in its rightful indigenous literary and cultural background and historicity. The critique probed into the distinct ethnolinguistic heritage of the Ibaloy, after which discourse analysis was conducted to examine the grammar of the Ba-diw as both an ethnic and aesthetic expression. This grammar highlighted in the ethnographic critique is the dynamic system of the basic elements of a language consisting of lexis, syntax, semantics, phonology, and cultural load. Recognizing the Ba-diw as an indigenous oral tradition, the researcher examined its language use as an expression of the identity, ideals, aspirations, worldviews, and lifestyle of the Ibaloy ethnolinguistic group being the dominant theme henceforth, a legitimate and unique contribution to the richness of Philippine folklore.

Abstract:
The province of Benguet, situated in North Luzon, the Philippines, holds a large number of ancient mummified remains, mostly located within the municipality of Kabayan. Such bodies are mainly associated to the Ibaloy – one of the indigenous groups collectively known as Igorot – and are stored in natural rockshelters or caves carved into the stone, inside wooden coffins often obtained from hollowed pine tree segments. Recent inspections of some of these corpses, carried out in 2002 and 2012, indicated the nature of their mummification process as well as some details regarding their bioanthropological features. Although very little information was initially available on these bodies, the authors have gathered significant oral information on funerary rituals and attitudes towards the ancestors via interviews with the local elders, as well as data on the vegetal materials employed and the practice of tattooing. This paper is the first critical evaluation of these mummies and demonstrates the uniqueness and preciousness of this biocultural heritage now in danger.

Abstract:
Abstract The Ibaloy, an indigenous group of the Cordillera Central in the Philippines, perform complex burial rites. Often when someone falls ill, they also exhume human remains, a practice that has not received the attention it deserves in a cosmology where animism and analogism are intertwined. Here, we describe a variant of the késheng ja waray batbat ritual observed in 2017, the timeline of its sequences, and the many objects and acts it involves. This ritual is key to the exchanges that the living make with the dead. In it, pigs act more as ‘connectors’ than as sacrificial offerings, and their flesh, blood, and karashowa (soul) are used and shared. This three-day ritual questions death as the end of life, and sheds light on the extent to which Hertz’s ‘second funeral’ concept is useful in understanding the relationships between the living and the dead. It also illuminates how the dead need continuous help from the living and vice versa. Both groups strive to reach a state of diteng (well-being, healthiness) which can be reached only after the dead themselves experience it, thanks to the efforts of the living who take care of their remains and make offerings to them. Then, luck and prosperity can be expected from the dead. These exchanges appear to be necessary to live a good life, and they must be repeated and maintained at all cost.

Abstract:
Background: Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are leading to a general increase in atopic diseases worldwide. However, it is still unknown whether DEPs induce systemic B-cell IgE class switching in secondary lymphoid organs or locally in the lungs in inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT). The aim of this work was to identify the exact site of DEP-mediated B-cell IgE class switching and pro-allergic antibody production. Methods: We immunized BALB/c mice with different OVA doses (0.3 and 30 µg) intranasally in the presence and absence of two types of DEPs, SRM1650B and SRM2786. We used low (30 µg) and high (150 µg) DEP doses. Results: Only a high DEP dose induced IgE production, regardless of the particle type. Local IgE class switching was stimulated upon treatment with both types of particles with both low and high OVA doses. Despite the similar ability of the two standard DEPs to stimulate IgE production, their ability to induce iBALT formation and growth was markedly different upon co-administration with low OVA doses. Conclusions: DEP-induced local IgE class switching takes place in preexisting iBALTs independent of de novo iBALT formation, at least in the case of SRM1650B co-administered with low OVA doses.

Pollenia rungsi Séguy, 1953 is established as a junior synonym of Pollenia ibalia Séguy, 1930, syn. nov. Pollenia funebris Villeneuve, 1933 is treated as a junior synonym of Pollenia ibalia Séguy, 1930, syn. nov., but the name is a junior primary homonym of Pollenia funebris Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863, and therefore permanently invalid. A lectotype is designated for Pollenia haeretica Séguy to fix the interpretation of the name. The syntypes of Pollenia funebris Villeneuve are probably lost.

Abstract:
Abstract Inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) is an ectopic lymphoid tissue formed in the lung after pulmonary infection or inflammation. This local lymphoid tissue is structurally similar to conventional secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs), with separated B and T cell areas, specialized stromal cells and lymphoid dendritic cells (DCs). The presence of iBALT is typically associated with pulmonary pathology and advanced lung disease, particularly in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), rheumatoid lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis and chronic infections, suggesting that iBALT functions to exacerbate local immune responses and pathology. Here, we tested whether the presence of iBALT affected the pulmonary immune responses to allergens. We induced iBALT formation in neonatal mice by pulmonary administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and when the mice were adults, sensitized and challenged them intranasally with ovalbumin (OVA). We found that mice with iBALT exhibited reduced Th2 responses, reduced eosinophil recruitment, reduced goblet cell hyperplasia and reduced mucus production. The presence of iBALT delayed the accumulation of Th2 cells and eosinophils in the lung following challenge and altered the spatial distribution of T cells in the lung. We also found that the more organized iBALT structure was, the fewer eosinophil infiltrates were observed in house dust mite (HDM)-induced allergic inflammation. Although Th2 cells are generated in mice with iBALT, they are concentrated in iBALT area and more dilute in lung parenchyma. Overall, our studies expanded the field of iBALT from observation of what happens in pulmonary diseases to determining the machinery involved in the responses.

We found that although mice with iBALT had more lymphocytes in their lungs, they had fewer eosinophils, less goblet cells and had reduced Th2 cytokine production in bronchoalveolar (BAL) fluid and lung tissue after OVA challenge. Surprisingly, using IL-4 reporter and by transferring OVA-specific OT-II cells, we found that the presence of iBALT did not reduce the number of Th2 cells that accumulated in the lung. Despite similar numbers of Th2 effectors in the lungs of mice with and without iBALT, we found that Th2 cells were differentially distributed in these two groups of mice. Those in the lungs of mice without iBALT were more widely dispersed, whereas the cells in the lungs of mice with iBALT were predominantly concentrated in the lymphoid tissue. These results suggest that the reduction in Th2-driven pathology with iBALT is due to the redistribution of leukocytes within the lung after iBALT formation.

Abstract Mycobacterium bovis bacilli Calmette-Guerin is the only licensed tuberculosis vaccine, which has been considered to be insufficient against adult pulmonary tuberculosis. As most of pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, naturally enter the host through respiratory surface, nasal vaccine is an ideal method to prevent the diseases by inducing antigen-specific immune responses at respiratory sites as well as systemic compartments. Our group recently developed Ag85B-expressing human parainfluenza type 2 virus (Ag85B-hPIV2) as a nasal vaccine against tuberculosis. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the induction of antigen-specific immune responses by Ag85B-hPIV2. We found that inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) played an important role in the induction of antigen-specific immune responses. Intranasal administration of hPIV2 vector induced iBALT formation with induction of Th17 cells and CD11b+CD11c+ cells both of which are known to require for the formation and maintenance of iBALT structure, respectively. When iBALT structure was disrupted by depletion of CD11b+ cells in CD11b-diphtheria toxin receptor transgenic mice, Ag85B-specific immune response was diminished in the lung. These findings indicate that iBALT genesis is an essential process required in Ag85B-hPIV2 anti-tuberculosis mucosal vaccine.

Abstract:
Abstract Lung is an immune sensitive organ with presence of all immune cells at the frontline of immunity. Under chronic infection conditions, inducible Bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) can be formed to defend foreign infectious organisms. We wonder whether viral vectors for gene therapy could induce iBALT formation and whether this process can be controlled through immune modulation. To test these ideas, we repeatedly administered a helper-dependent adenoviral (HD-Ad) vector to mouse lungs and examined iBALT formation. HD-Ad vectors are based on adenovirus but with all viral coding sequences deleted and is one option for large gene delivery. In our previous studies, HD-Ad vectors have exhibited high in vivo efficiency in transduction of mouse, rabbit and pig airway epithelial cells, including stem/progenitor cells such as basal cells. HD-Ad vectors expressing therapeutic gene encoding cystic fibrosis transmenbrane conductance regulator (CFTR) rescue CFTR function in CF patient primary cells. In our mouse studies, we found that HD-Ad vectors induced iBALT formation and antibody production. We used cyclophosphamide or HD-Ad expressing IL-10 to modulate the host immune responses and to examine the effects on iBALT formation. Comparing with control group (HD-Ad vectors only), the mice treated with cyclophosphamide or IL-10 expressing HD-Ad vector showed a significant reduction of iBALT formation and infiltration of inflammatory cells, including CD4+ and B220+ as well as production of anti-Ad antibodies and neutralizing antibodies. Our results indicate that transient modulation significantly mitigated immunopathology and extended transgene expression in mouse airways following readministration of HD-Ad vectors.

Abstract:
Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) are organized aggregates of B and T cells formed in postembryonic life in response to chronic immune responses to infectious agents or self-antigens. Although CD11c+ dendritic cells (DCs) are consistently found in regions of TLO, their contribution to TLO organization has not been studied in detail. We found that CD11chi DCs are essential for the maintenance of inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT), a form of TLO induced in the lungs after influenza virus infection. Elimination of DCs after the virus had been cleared from the lung resulted in iBALT disintegration and reduction in germinal center (GC) reactions, which led to significantly reduced numbers of class-switched plasma cells in the lung and bone marrow and reduction in protective antiviral serum immunoglobulins. Mechanistically, DCs isolated from the lungs of mice with iBALT no longer presented viral antigens to T cells but were a source of lymphotoxin (LT) β and homeostatic chemokines (CXCL-12 and -13 and CCL-19 and -21) known to contribute to TLO organization. Like depletion of DCs, blockade of LTβ receptor signaling after virus clearance led to disintegration of iBALT and GC reactions. Together, our data reveal a previously unappreciated function of lung DCs in iBALT homeostasis and humoral immunity to influenza virus.

Abstract:
Background: Isolated bulbar amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (IBALS) is a regional variant of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) with weakness restricted to the bulbar muscles for at least 2 years, and slower progression than generalized ALS. Bulbar-onset generalized ALS, by contrast, typically has a more rapid progression than limb-onset ALS.Objective: To characterize patients with IBALS and compare them to patients with isolated bulbar disease at presentation who progress to generalized ALS.Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients seen in our ALS specialty clinic at the University of Kansas Medical Center between 2001-2011. Results: Of 543 patients seen in the ALS clinic, 150 presented with bulbar symptoms at disease onset: 28 (18.7%) had bulbar signs and no evidence of extremity involvement on exam or electrodiagnostic testing at their initial visit; and 14 (9.3%) had weakness restricted to the bulbar muscles after 2 years of follow up (IBALS). IBALS patients were 57.1% male, with a mean age of symptom onset of 60.8 years (range 39-77 years). The mean disease duration was 3.1 years (range of 2-8 years), with 50% mortality at a mean follow up of 3.5 years. Minimal denervation changes were seen in at least one limb in 6 subjects (42.9%). Other clinical features included: 4 subjects (28.6%) had cognitive impairment, 4 (28.6%) had pseudo-bulbar affect, and 5 subjects (35.7%) had impaired eye movements on smooth pursuit.Conclusion: Isolatred bulbar ALS IBALS is an identifiable restricted regional ALS pattern if there is no clinical limb weakness 2 years after symptom onset. It may have a slower progression from typical ALS. The biologic factors that account for the IBALS restricted pattern are unknown.

Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, caused by exposure to exogenous particles, mainly cigarette smoke (CS). COPD is initiated and perpetuated by an abnormal CS-induced inflammatory response of the lungs, involving both innate and adaptive immunity. Specifically, B cells organized in iBALT structures and macrophages accumulate in the lungs and contribute to CS-induced emphysema, but the mechanisms thereof remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that B cell-deficient mice are significantly protected against CS-induced emphysema. Chronic CS exposure led to an increased size and number of iBALT structures, and increased lung compliance and mean linear chord length in wild-type (WT) but not in B cell-deficient mice. The increased accumulation of lung resident macrophages around iBALT and in emphysematous alveolar areas in CS-exposed WT mice coincided with upregulated MMP12 expression. In vitro coculture experiments using B cells and macrophages demonstrated that B cell-derived IL-10 drives macrophage activation and MMP12 upregulation, which could be inhibited by an anti-IL-10 antibody. In summary, B cell function in iBALT formation seems necessary for macrophage activation and tissue destruction in CS-induced emphysema and possibly provides a new target for therapeutic intervention in COPD.

Abstract:
Abstract We have previously shown that the intranasal delivery of a small heat-shock protein cage nanoparticle, a virus-like particle (VLP), elicits the formation of inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT), which provides protection against many diverse high-dose pathogen challenges. We demonstrate here that the presence of non-specific, VLP-induced iBALT facilitated accelerated influenza virus clearance and enhanced immunity through accelerated airway (CD103+) and parenchymal (CD11b+) dendritic cell antigen processing and trafficking. These responses were dependent upon the presence of CD11c+ cells, which had been directly exposed to VLPs, and migrated into the lung in a CCR2, VCAM-1, and ICAM-1-dependent manner. The initial innate response to influenza challenge was then followed by an accelerated expansion of influenza-specific CD4+ T cells. The combination of these events resulted in accelerated viral clearance and significantly ameliorated host-derived collateral damage. Furthermore, we show that the presence of iBALT, which is not specific to influenza virus, was efficient at clearing high-dose virus, independently of the TBLN’s help. Thus, we herein demonstrate the mechanism by which the presence of iBALT, derived from non-specific, non-pathogenic VLPs, and lacking any memory cells to agents of subsequent challenge, elicited alternative cellular trafficking and expansion patterns, and thus cleared virus at an accelerated rate, with less harmful consequence.

Abstract:
Memory CD4+ T helper (Th) cells are central to long-term protection against pathogens, but they can also be pathogenic and drive chronic inflammatory disorders. How these pathogenic memory Th cells are maintained, particularly at sites of local inflammation, remains unclear. We found that ectopic lymphoid-like structures called inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) are formed during chronic allergic inflammation in the lung, and that memory-type pathogenic Th2 (Tpath2) cells capable of driving allergic inflammation are maintained within the iBALT structures. The maintenance of memory Th2 cells within iBALT is supported by Thy1+IL-7–producing lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). The Thy1+IL-7–producing LECs express IL-33 and T-cell–attracting chemokines CCL21 and CCL19. Moreover, ectopic lymphoid structures consisting of memory CD4+ T cells and IL-7+IL-33+ LECs were found in nasal polyps of patients with eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis. Thus, Thy1+IL-7–producing LECs control chronic allergic airway inflammation by providing a survival niche for memory-type Tpath2 cells.

Abstract:
Sequential planning portfolios are very powerful in exploiting the complementary strength of different automated planners. The main challenge of a portfolio planner is to define which base planners to run, to assign the running time for each planner and to decide in what order they should be carried out to optimize a planning metric. Portfolio configurations are usually derived empirically from training benchmarks and remain fixed for an evaluation phase. In this work, we create a per-instance configurable portfolio, which is able to adapt itself to every planning task. The proposed system pre-selects a group of candidate planners using a Pareto-dominance filtering approach and then it decides which planners to include and the time assigned according to predictive models. These models estimate whether a base planner will be able to solve the given problem and, if so, how long it will take. We define different portfolio strategies to combine the knowledge generated by the models. The experimental evaluation shows that the resulting portfolios provide an improvement when compared with non-informed strategies. One of the proposed portfolios was the winner of the Sequential Satisficing Track of the International Planning Competition held in 2014.

Abstract:
Influenza is a deadly and costly infectious disease, even during flu seasons when an effective vaccine has been developed. To improve vaccines against respiratory viruses, a better understanding of the immune response at the site of infection is crucial. After influenza infection, clonally expanded T cells take up permanent residence in the lung, poised to rapidly respond to subsequent infection. Here, we characterized the dynamics and transcriptional regulation of lung-resident CD4+ T cells during influenza infection and identified a long-lived, Bcl6-dependent population that we have termed T resident helper (TRH) cells. TRH cells arise in the lung independently of lymph node T follicular helper cells but are dependent on B cells, with which they tightly colocalize in inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT). Deletion of Bcl6 in CD4+ T cells before heterotypic challenge infection resulted in redistribution of CD4+ T cells outside of iBALT areas and impaired local antibody production. These results highlight iBALT as a homeostatic niche for TRH cells and advocate for vaccination strategies that induce TRH cells in the lung.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTFrequent reports of haematuria among resettlers at Ibaro and Abule-titun located close to a newly constructed reservoir. 20 km north-west of Abeokuta. Ogun State, Nigeria. prompted a pre-control survey to assess age and sex distribution of urinary schistosomiasis in the communities. 210 persons were examined at Ibaro and 145 at Abule-titun between April 1988 and February 1989. Overall prevalence was about 80% in both villages, and all age and sex groups examined were affected. The pattern of infection in both villages was similar, prevalence being high in all age and sex groups and, unlike most endemic communities, the rate of infection was not significantly higher among the 5–14 year age groups. Intensity of infection was also high in all age and sex groups with mean range egg output of between 73±73 and 2016±3875 ova/10ml urine at Ibaro and between 231±122 and 1340±1786 ova/10ml urine at Abule-titun. This is attributed to an occupation-related high rate of human water contact in both villages.

Abstract:
Immunopathologic examination of the lungs of mouse models of experimental influenza virus infection provides new insights into the immune response in this disease. First, there is rapidly developing perivascular and peribronchial infiltration of the lung with T-cells. This is followed by invasion of T-cells into the bronchiolar epithelium, and separation of epithelial cells from each other and from the basement membrane leading to defoliation of the bronchial epithelium. The intraepithelial reaction may involve either CD8 or CD4 T-cytotoxic cells and is analogous to a viral exanthema of the skin, such as measles and smallpox, which occur when the immune response against these infections is activated and the infected cells are attacked by T-cytotoxic cells. Then there is formation of B-cell follicles adjacent to bronchi, i.e., induced bronchial associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT). iBALT reacts like the cortex of a lymph node and is a site for a local immune response not only to the original viral infection, but also related viral infections (heterologous immunity). Proliferation of Type II pneumocytes and/or terminal bronchial epithelial cells may extend into the adjacent lung leading to large zones filled with tumor-like epithelial cells. The effective killing of influenza virus infected epithelial cells by T-cytotoxic cells and induction of iBALT suggests that adding the induction of these components might greatly increase the efficacy of influenza vaccination.

Abstract Context.—B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with a mature phenotype and L1 morphology is a rare condition that may pose a diagnostic and management challenge. Objective.—To report our experience with 2 such unusual cases of pediatric B-lineage ALL. Design.—Morphologic, immunophenotypic, and cytogenetic features of the leukemic blast cells were reviewed in conjunction with clinical and other laboratory findings. Results.—The leukemic blast cells in both cases were small to medium with scant basophilic cytoplasm and several small inconspicuous nucleoli, characteristic of L1 lymphoblasts. Immunophenotypically, they were positive for CD19, CD22, and low-density CD20, with expression of surface immunoglobulin λ light chain. They were negative for immature (CD34 and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase), myeloid, and T-cell–associated markers. Conventional cytogenetic and fluorescent in situ hybridization studies failed to demonstrate chromosomal translocations involving the c-myc gene. Both patients were treated with Children's Cancer Group ALL protocols and had good responses. Conclusions.—B-lineage ALL with a mature phenotype, L1 morphology, and absent chromosomal translocations involving the c-myc gene is best classified and managed as precursor B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma instead of Burkitt leukemia/lymphoma.

Abstract:
Abstract Recent work has shown that resident memory B cells (BRM) are generated in the lung after flu infection. However, it is unclear whether the existence of lung BRM is unique to influenza, which often elicits iBALT, or alternatively if these cells represent a common feature of the lung immune landscape. We aimed to determine whether bacterial lung exposures experienced by nearly all human children might also elicit lung BRM. To model this scenario, we gave young mice repeated respiratory exposures to low virulence pneumococci. After at least 4 weeks, we then analyzed lung B cells using flow cytometry and an intravital CD45 stain to exclude intravascular leukocytes. Pneumococcus-exposed mice had many more extravascular IgD- lung B cells than controls, and these B cells remained in the lung at least 12 weeks after the last exposure. Although unorganized aggregates of B and T cells were observed in previously exposed lungs, no iBALT structures were generated. Most of the IgD-B cells expressed the memory markers PD-L2, CD80, and CD73; a majority of the B cells expressed two or more of these markers, indicating they are poised to become antibody secreting upon rechallenge. Notably, the hallmark lung TRM phenotype (CD11abrightCD69+CD44brightCD62Llow) was also observed on lung B cells; these markers may represent a common resident memory lymphocyte phenotype. Although all lung B cells were CD20+, they were not affected by αCD20 antibody treatment, which requires circulation of bound cells for depletion to occur. BRM appear to be a common feature of the adaptive immune cell repertoire of experienced lungs. These cells do not require iBALT for their maintenance and represent a previously unrecognized pool of B cells resistant to depletion with αCD20 therapy.

Abstract:
Abstract The respiratory mucosa is a major site for pathogen invasion and, hence, a site requiring constant immune surveillance. The semi-invariant natural killer T (NKT) cells are enriched within the lung vasculature. Despite optimal positioning for border patrol, the role of NKT cells in respiratory infectious diseases remains poorly understood. Hence, we assessed their function in a murine model of pulmonary tularemia—because tularemia is a sepsis-like proinflammatory disease and NKT cells are known to control the cellular and humoral responses underlying sepsis. Here we show for the first time that respiratory infection with Francisella tularensis live vaccine strain results in rapid recruitment of NKT cells to the lung interstitium. Interstitial NKT cell activation resulted in protective interferon-γ production, and affected both local and systemic proinflammatory responses. Hence, NKT cell-deficient mice showed reduced inflammatory cytokine and chemokine response yet survived the infection whilst their wild type counterparts did not. Strikingly, NKT cell-deficient mice had increased lymphocytic infiltration in the lungs that organized into structures resembling induced bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) at the peak of infection. Thus, NKT cell activation by F tularensis infection hampers iBALT formation, which in conjunction with NKT cell-dependent proinflammatory response causes severe pulmonary tularemia-like disease in mice.

Abstract:
The quality of computer rendering and perception of realism greatly depend on the shading method used to implement the interaction of light with the surfaces of objects in a scene. Ambient occlusion (AO) enhances the realistic impression of rendered objects and scenes. Properties that make Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) interesting for real-time graphics are scene complexity independence, and support for fully dynamic scenes. However, there are also important issues with current approaches: poor texture cache use, introduction of noise, and performance swings. In this paper, a straightforward solution is presented. Instead of a traditional, geometry-based sampling method, a novel, image-based sampling method is developed, coupled with a revised heuristic function for computing occlusion. Proposed algorithm harnessing GPU power improves texture cache use and reduces aliasing artifacts. Two implementations are developed, traditional and novel, and their comparison reveals improved performance and quality of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract:
Mucosal surfaces are the first contact sites of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Most SARS-CoV-2 vaccines induce specific IgG responses but provide limited mucosal immunity. Cytokine B-cell activation factor (BAFF) and A proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily play key immunological functions during B cell development and antibody production. Furthermore, homeostatic chemokines, such as C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13), chemokine (C–C motif) ligand 19 (CCL19), and CCL21, can induce B- and T-cell responses to infection and promote the formation of inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissues (iBALT), where specific local immune responses and memory cells are generated. We reviewed the role of BAFF, APRIL, CXCL13, CCL19, and CCL21 in the activation of local B-cell responses and antibody production, and the formation of iBALT in the lung following viral respiratory infections. We speculate that mucosal vaccines may offer more efficient protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection than systematic vaccines and hypothesize that a novel SARS-CoV-2 mRNA mucosal vaccine using BAFF/APRIL or CXCL13 as immunostimulants combined with the spike protein-encoding mRNA may enhance the efficiency of the local immune response and prevent the early stages of SARS-CoV-2 replication and the rapid viral clearance from the airways.

Abstract:
Abstract Klebsiella pneumoniae is a worrisome nosocomial pathogen given the widespread emergence of antibiotic resistant strains. Little is known about the host immune response to K. pneumoniae; however, it has recently been shown that aggregates of lymphoid cells can be found in murine lungs 4 weeks after surviving K. pneumoniae pulmonary infection. Others have characterized pulmonary collections of lymphoid cells in response to other pathogens and coined them induced bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT). iBALT is believed to assist in protection against re-infection. In our nonlethal model of K. pneumoniae, mice that survive the primary infection and exhibit these structures are indeed protected from K. pneumoniae challenge. To further characterize the development and organization of these structures, pulmonary immune cell populations were analyzed post-infection by flow cytometry, histology, and immunofluorescence. As expected, pulmonary neutrophil populations increase over the first 10 days post-infection. T cells appear to rapidly expand between 7 and 10 days post-infection and both CD4+ and γδ T cell subsets make up the majority of this population. Immunofluorescent imaging of lymphoid aggregates demonstrate that CD4+ and γδ T cells are found within these structures at early time-points. Experiments using TCRβδ−/− mice lacking T cells reveals the absence of lymphoid aggregates 28 days post-infection, suggesting that T cells are essential in the initial formation and development of these structures.

Abstract:
The main aim of this research is to formulate a revitalizing model of ethnic settlement through the effort of preserving cultural heritage and supporting community-based tourism in Surakarta. It is a qualitative research which uses primary and secondary sources. The research data is gathered through in-depth interviews, guided group discussions, field observations, and the close reading method [metode simak]. The data was obtained through the triangulation method. The data is then analyzed by using the interactive analysis technique. The results of the research are as follows: First, the kinds of ethnic settlements which still survive are Baluwarti, Kauman, Laweyan, Pecinan in Balong and Kampung Arab Pasar Kliwon. Second, writings on the variety of ethnic settlements in Surakarta are still limited. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance this community-based ethnic settlement through writings so that the community would be better known and be able to benefit from the existing tourism settlement projects. Third, the final model is formulated, i.e. the final Interpretation-Based and Benefit-Oriented Model which is shortened as IBaBOM. This means that what is being constructed is a revitalizing model based on interpretative writings. The objective is to secure benefits for Surakarta.The elements to formulate this model are the potentials, problems, and stakeholders. The potentials refer to the attractions, accessibilities, amenities, and activities. Problems cover matters related to diversifications, collaborations, human resource, thought patterns, and promotion. Stakeholders comprise of the community, the government, higher learning institutions, private enterprises, non-governmental organizations, and associations or “paguyuban.” The benefits are the various outcomes which can be enjoyed by all the stakeholders vis-a-vis the process of the empowerment of ethnic communities and the development of culture based tourism in Surakata.According to the Intepretation-Based and Benefit-Oriented Model or (IBaBOM), both the community and the tourists will have knowledge of the history and culture of the ethnic community. The ethnic community as well as the surrounding communities will derive benefits or profits from the undertaking.

AbstractSiricids and their parasitoids were reared from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L. (Pinaceae)) trees infested by Sirex noctilio F. in central New York State. Sirex noctilio accounted for 94.3% of the siricid specimens emerging, totaling 1313 specimens from six trees, with a maximum of 495 from one tree. Of the individuals emerging per tree, 20.6 ± 5.2% were female. Two native siricids, Sirex nigricornis F. and S. edwardsii Brullè, also emerged from trees but in low numbers. Three hymenopteran parasitoid species that attack siricids emerged, totaling 21.8 ± 6.4% parasitism per tree. Ibalia leucospoides ensiger Norton (Ibaliidae) was by far the most abundant parasitoid, at 20.5 ± 6.3% parasitism per tree. The percentage of female S. noctilio emerging was positively correlated with wood diameter, whereas percent parasitism by I. l. ensiger was negatively correlated with wood diameter.

In 2012, the Supreme Court of Nigeria delivered three decisions on the compulsory acquisition of land or the revocation of occupancy rights; Alhaji Tsoho Dan Amale v Sokoto Local Government and Others; Goldmark Nigeria Limited and Others v Ibafon Company Limited and Others; and Ohochukwu v Attorney General of Rivers State and Others. These three cases laid down principles on the subject which are worthy of exposition.

Abstract:
A junção das atividades ao bem-estar dos trabalhadores no que diz respeito à qualidade de vida no trabalho tem ganhado cada vez mais destaque. O objetivo geral do estudo foi analisar o impacto da qualidade de vida no trabalho através dos processos de cultura organizacional aliada a gestão estratégica no setor público em um órgão de ensino superior no município de Montes Claros. Os procedimentos metodológicos aplicados nesta pesquisa seguiram as delimitações propostas da pesquisa “As influências da cultura organizacional na prestação de serviços públicos”, assim trata-se de um estudo de natureza aplicada, exploratória e descritiva. Para a análise e identificação foi utilizado o Instrumento Brasileiro para Avaliação da Cultura Organizacional – IBACO adaptado à realidade do setor público, o questionário dispôs de 43 perguntas distribuídas em 06 fatores entre Valores e Práticas Organizacionais, foram utilizadas técnicas de estatística com escala Likert de cinco pontos paramensuração do grau da cultura organizacional. A amostra foi composta por 50 respondentes da área administrativa de uma instituição pública de ensino superior, obtendo 47 retornos. Após as análises dos dados em relação aos resultados do IBACO, pode-se entender a Cultura Organizacional moderada, que quer dizer que a instituição cumpre suas metas e atende as necessidades do usuário, no entanto seus colaboradores transitam por um ambiente cordial e diplomático, onde a qualidade de vida no trabalho é tida como baixa, o que foi descrito pela insatisfação dos servidores. Portanto, acerca da temática delimitada é possível contribuir com à instituição pesquisada demonstrando que as proposições afincadas podem ser reposicionadas, com a finalidade de propiciar um melhor bem-estar e produtividade; e viés preventivo em organizações públicas instaurar um plano dequalidade de vida no trabalho. Palavras-chave: Qualidade de Vida no trabalho, Cultura Organizacional, Planejamento Estratégico e SetorPúblico.
