Pełny tekst źródłaEukaryotic genomes are highly complex and can be very large. For example, the human genome contains approximately 20,000-25,000 protein coding genes. Expression of these genes needs to be tightly regulated at many levels, including chromatin organization, gene transcription, mRNA processing and export and translation, for proper functioning of cellular machinery. Many proteins and protein complexes are involved in these essential regulatory processes, examples include chromatin remodelers, transcriptional activators and coactivators, transcriptional repressors and notably the general transcription machinery. Transcription of protein coding genes in eukaryotes is called Class II gene transcription, and is catalyzed by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Gene transcription by Pol II requires the cooperative interaction of multiple proteins and protein complexes to facilitate the assembly of a preinitiation complex (PIC) at the core promoter. The PIC comprises Pol II and the General Transcription Factors (GTFs)- TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, and TFIIH, together with the Mediator complex and a large variety of transcriptional coactivators.A fundamental step in PIC assembly is recognition of the core promoter by GTF TFIID, a magdalton sized multiprotein complex. In humans, TFIID comprises about twenty subunits made up of 14 different proteins – the TATA box binding protein (TBP) and its associated factors (TAFs, numbered 1 to 13). A range of studies on human TFIID and its subassemblies have been carried out since its discovery more than two decades ago, to understand the structure and mechanism of this essential GTF, but the architecture of TFIID, its activities, its functions, its inner workings and the mechanisms of its cellular assembly have eluded detailed understanding to date.This thesis describes biochemical, biophysical, structural and functional studies carried out on three distinct human TFIID subassemblies. We used a number of structural biology techniques, including crystallization, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to analyse a complex formed by the human TBP associated factors TAF1 and TAF7. These structural studies provide detailed insights into the intricate interaction interface formed by TAF1 and TAF7, and, together with other data available from the literature, highlight the dynamic nature of the TAF1/TAF7 interaction in the human TFIID complex.In a second study, we analyzed a novel complex formed by TAF11, TAF13 and TBP using a range of biophysical and biochemical methods including electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC), size exclusion chromatography (SEC) analysis, pull-down assay, native mass-spectroscopy and chemical cross-linking mass spectroscopy (CLMS). This complex is reminiscent of a so-called TATA-box mimicry discovered previously in a TAF1/TBP complex.As part of the ongoing efforts in the Berger laboratory to determine the structure of human holo-TFIID, we furthermore produced and purified a large (~900 kDa) TFIID subassembly called 9TAF, which is composed of nine different TBP associated factors. We carried out negative stain EM studies and random conical tilt (RCT) analysis on 9TAF to obtain low resolution structural information. These studies set the stage for future cryo-EM studies of this 9TAF complex to obtain a high(er) resolution model to decipher the inner workings of human TFIID

Neste trabalho, investigamos o conceito de alma e sua importância para a compreensão da pessoa humana segundo Edith Stein. Mostraremos, a partir de O problema da empatia (1916), A estrutura da pessoa humana (1932) e Ciência da cruz (1942), três obras de momentos distintos da vida da autora, um paralelo entre o modo como ela aprofunda a análise fenomenológica da alma, mantendo-se sempre vinculada ao método aprendido de Edmund Husserl, e sua vivência existencial de relação pessoal com Deus. Constatamos que em sua tese de 1916, O problema da empatia, Edith Stein já havia elaborado uma concepção estrutural da alma que passa a ser ampliada e aprofundada nas demais obras, sem sofrer grandes alterações. Desse modo, a análise fenomenológica do conceito de alma empreendida por Edith Stein nessas obras nos permite apontar para uma notável coerência e continuidade de seu pensamento nos diferentes períodos de sua vida, assim como sua estreita vinculação ao método fenomenológico de Edmund Husserl.
This study addresses the concept of the soul according to Edith Stein as a foundation for understanding her notion of human person. We will show through three studies published by the author at distinctly different moments: Zum Problem der Einfühlung (1916), Der Aufbau der menschlichen Person (1932) and Kreuzeswissenschaft (1942)], a parallel between the way she delves into the phenomenological analysis of the soul, very much influenced by the phenomenological method taught by Edmund Husserl, and her own existential experience in her intimate relation with God. We found that in her 1916 thesis, On the problem of Empathy, Edith Stein had already elaborated a structural concept of soul which, while enhanced and amplified, remained largely unaltered throughout her subsequent works. Thus, the phenomenological analysis of the concept of soul manifested in these three works, allows us to observe a profound coherence and continuity of thought throughout an significant period of her life, as well as her unswerving adherence to Edmund Husserl’s phenomenological method.

Pełny tekst źródłaPhilosophers throughout the ages have grappled with the concept of glory-seeking and have offered many different references, analyses, insights, and explanations. Three great thinkers in particular stand out above the rest: Plato, Thomas Hobbes, and Jean-Paul Sartre. While these three minds span from circa 420 BC all the way up to 1980 AD, they all would agree that glory-seeking certainly matters – they would most likely argue over the following: In what way? For Plato, glory-seeking is an inherent part of the human soul. It matters because it is an essential part of our being. Plato’s model for the soul found in The Republic as well as a comparable illustration in the Phaedrus expresses this claim most thoroughly. Additional support for the idea of glory-seeking being an existing precondition of humanity can be found in other ancient works as well, most notably Homer’s Iliad. A current example is professional athletes in the NFL risking their earning potential in order to play injured. For Hobbes, glory-seeking is a tool to be used for social advantage. It matters because it can be used it for advantage and power. Chapters X and XIII in The Leviathan most critically highlight this sentiment. Further support for the idea of glory-seeking being a weapon in the self-made man’s arsenal can be found in Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Discourse on the Origin of Inequality. The largest modern-day example is celebrity culture: the news and entertainment factory so woven into current American culture, which is particularly embodied by the public behavior and lyrics of hip-hop artist Kanye West. For Sartre, glory-seeking provides an answer to existential angst. It matters because it helps us believe that we matter. The Sartre’s philosophical work, Being and Nothingness, as well as his existential novel, Nausea, provide ample evidence of this notion. More support for the idea of glory-seeking as a method of coping with the awareness one’s own existence can be found in Søren Kierkegaard’s The Present Age. Contemporary manifestations include the incessant self-promotion and self-presentation found on social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. The goal of this work is to first investigate glory-seeking for Plato, Hobbes, and Sartre and analyze what each thinker has to say on the matter. After that, modern examples and additional input from other relevant philosophers will be assessed within the overall context of glory-seeking for Plato, Hobbes, and Sartre. Finally, after everything has been considered, I will attempt to synthesize all that has been presented thus far while answering the question: Why does glory-seeking matter?

Pełny tekst źródłaIn our searching of the dialogue Phaedo, we will start by analyzing the reasons that Socrates presents to not fear death, wich are based on discourse about the nature of the soul, to examine the evidence that rationality, specifically the phronesis, offers about the boundaries between the area of the super-sensitive and the human life´s area. Such reflection, while denouncing their nature and guides the man towards to the exercise of philosophy, also provides at same time references about the limitations of the intellect to say about this area, distinct of the area of sensitivity. We will check the collaboration of phronesis in the development of the discourse on immortality, wich justifies the fearlessness of the death, and the various ways in which we can understand it in dialogue.

Pełny tekst źródłaLa agricultura moderna ha estado buscando continuamente métodos efectivos para satisfacer la demanda de alimentos que aumenta exponencialmente a nivel mundial. La aplicación de residuos orgánicos como fertilizante o enmienda de suelo es una medida ampliamente aceptada, ya que suministra nutrientes de manera eficiente y rápida a los cultivos. De hecho, desde 2015, la Comisión Europea ha propuesto un plan de economía circular que fomenta la enmienda del suelo con biosólidos. No obstante, la presencia de una amplia gama de contaminantes como elementos traza (ET), contaminantes orgánicos y contaminantes emergentes como antibióticos (AB) y genes de resistencia a antibióticos (ARG), ha sido reportada en algunos fertilizantes orgánicos. Las verduras pueden incorporar los contaminantes procedentes de suelos fertilizados con residuos orgánicos, amenazando la salud humana. Por esta razón, es necesaria la evaluación de los riesgos que puede provocar la aplicación de estos residuos orgánicos. Los fertilizantes orgánicos más utilizados son los desechos de origen animal (estiércol), el compost (fuentes vegetales o desechos de alimentos) y los desechos urbanos (lodos de depuradora y residuos domésticos). Actualmente, no existe ningún estudio que evalúe la incorporación de ET y AB por parte de las plantas con estos tres tipos de fertilizantes orgánicos, ni tampoco el impacto de la aplicación repetida de fertilizantes orgánicos sobre las mismas parcelas. Además, esta aplicación repetida de lodos de depuradora resultaría en la acumulación de Zn y Cu en el suelo modificado, y su presencia puede influir en la incorporación de otros contaminantes. Por tanto, en esta tesis doctoral se abordan tres aspectos relacionados con los contaminantes en hortalizas en diferentes actividades agrícolas: (1) aplicación de diferentes dosis de distintos residuos orgánicos a suelos de cultivo, que tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto de esta fertilización en la incorporación de ET y AB en la hortaliza, (2) aplicación reiterada de residuos orgánicos en suelos de cultivo y seguimiento de la concentración de ET en hortalizas durante diferentes ciclos productivos, cuyo objetivo es evaluar el impacto de la fertilización orgánica a largo plazo, y (3) aplicación de lodos de depuradora y diferentes cantidades de Zn y Cu al suelo, con el objetivo de evaluar el efecto de estos metales sobre la acumulación de otros contaminantes como ET, AB y ARG en las hortalizas. Además, en todos los casos se evaluó el riesgo para la salud humana asociado al consumo de hortalizas. En áreas periurbanas, el suelo agrícola puede recibir la contaminación potencial de contaminantes procedentes de suelos fertilizados con residuos orgánicos, pero también los contaminantes potenciales derivados de las actividades urbanas. Estos contaminantes pueden influir en el crecimiento y desarrollo de los vegetales. En esta tesis, también se desarrolló un método simple y rápido para evaluar la contaminación del suelo. Para ello se utilizaron dos índices de crecimiento de plantas (tasa de germinación de semillas y alargamiento de raíces en la etapa inicial) en tres semillas de hortalizas para evaluar la contaminación química del suelo en agricultura de proximidad.
Modern agriculture has been continually searching for effective methods to meet the exponentially increasing food demand. Amending soil with fertilizers has been widely adopted, as it could efficiently and fast supply nutrients to vegetables. Since 2015, the European Commission has proposed a circular economy plan which encourages the soil amendment with biosolids. Nevertheless, the presence of a wide range of contaminants, such as trace elements (TEs), organic pollutants, and emerging pollutants such as antibiotics (ABs) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), has been widely reported in many organic fertilizers. Vegetables can absorb the contaminants from the amended soil, and further threaten human health. For this reason, risk assessment of organic fertilizer applications is necessary. The most commonly used organic fertilizers are animal-based waste (manure), compost (plant sources or food waste), and urban waste (sewage sludge and household waste). Currently, no study evaluates the plant uptake of TEs and ABs under these three organic fertilizers, nor research evaluates the impact of repeated organic fertilization. Additionally, multiple application of sewage sludge might result in the accumulation of Zn and Cu in amended soil, and their presence would influence uptake of other contaminants. Therefore, in this doctoral thesis, three aspects related to the contaminants in vegetable under different agriculture activities are addressed: (1) amending soils with different doses of different organic fertilizers, which aims to assess the impact of organic fertilizers on the occurrence of TEs and ABs in vegetables, (2) repeated amending soil with organic fertilizers and monitoring the variation of TEs concentrations in vegetables of different productive cycles, which aims to assess the impact of long-term organic fertilization, and (3) amending soils with sludge and different amounts of Zn and Cu, which aims to assess the effect of Zn and Cu on the accumulation of TEs, ABs, and ARGs in vegetables. Furthermore, in every case the risk to human health associated with the consumption of vegetables was evaluated. In peri-urban area, the agricultural soil may receive the potential pollution from fertilizer, but also from potential contaminants due to urban activities. Those pollutants would influence the growth and development of vegetables. In this thesis, a simple and rapid method to assess soil pollution was also developed. Here, we use two plant growth indexes (seed germination rate and root elongation at the initial stage) for three vegetable seeds to assess soil chemical contamination on proximity agriculture.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe human metapneumovirus has been first isolated in 2001 despite its circulation in the human population for more than 70 years. HMPV is the third leading cause of children hospitalisations associated with acute respiratory tract infections. Complications occur commonly in young children, the elderly and the immunocompromised. To this day, no vaccine has been licensed for use against hMPV. In recent years, the F protein, considered the most immunodominant antigen, has been the target of many pre-clinical vaccine trials. The discovery, for RSV, that a prefusion bound F protein is more immunogenic than post-fusion has encouraged new vaccination approaches. Based on this discovery, the aim of this project is the development of a prefusion bound F-hMPV subunit vaccine and testing its potency to protect the BALB/C model. Following challenge, no significant difference between potentially prefusion bound proteins and wild type protein was observed. Immunisation trials revealed the necessity of adding an adjuvant, alum in this case, to elicit an immune response in mice. Neutralizing antibodies were observed with F-hMPV vaccines containing the alum adjuvant. Post-immunisation challenge trials revealed reduction of lung viral replication below detection levels and persisting inflammation. Weight loss was not affected by vaccination, but animals immunised with adjuvanted F-hMPV proteins exhibited better physical condition and no signs of disease such as diminished activity and ruffed fur. F-hMPV vaccines without alum exhibited some characteristics of enhanced disease (no neutralizing antibodies; affected physical condition) and require further analysis. Enhanced disease was not observed in the F-hMPV adjuvanted groups despite higher Th2/Th1 ratios with adjuvanted proteins . None of the vaccines tested were able to fully protect the mouse model upon challenge. Vaccines developed in this study will be useful in future trials and could be tested with other adjuvants or vaccination strategies.

Pełny tekst źródłaIn order to consider the free choice of the will, Augustine has to mobilize concepts already established about the divine nature, the nature of evil and also the nature of the human soul. As such concepts change, the free choice of the will takes on different features until it reaches its most defined form, in which it is revealed as the origin of moral evil without reference to the divine authorship and in which it is also revealed as essentially vicious without any alternative but to accept divine aid. Therefore, if on the one hand the free choice of the will does not entail a relationship between God and the cause of evil, on the other hand it requires the relationship between God and the only way to stop evil. The objective of this work is to analyse the conceptual webs entailed in the concept of free choice, viewing it as a reading key capable of evidencing a certain internal logic in the movement involving Augustine\'s conversion to Christianity.

Urban gardens have been a popular re-use option in the transformation of brownfields—located in older industrialized cities and near peri-urban developments. They provide accessible, available, and affordable supplies of fresh fruits and vegetables, effectively reducing the enigma of “food deserts” across U.S. cities. However, direct (soil ingestion, inhalation) and indirect (soil-plant-human) human exposure concerns about real or perceived trace element contamination in urban soils persist due to previous use. Elevated lead (Pb) and/or arsenic (As) concentrations were found at two (Tacoma and Seattle, WA) urban gardens. The Tacoma site was contaminated with Pb (51 to 312 mg kg-1) and As (39 to 146 mg kg-1), whereas soil Pb at the Seattle site ranged from 506 to 2,022 mg kg-1, and As concentrations were < 20 mg kg-1. Experimental design at both sites was a randomized complete block with a split-plot arrangement (main plots: biosolids/compost vs. non-amended control; sub-plot: plant type). Tacoma site treatment included a Class A biosolids mix (TAGRO) with dolomite. The Seattle site was amended with Cedar-Grove Compost (CGC) plus dolomite. Efficacy of biosolids/compost amendment in reducing Pb and As concentrations was evaluated using root, leafy, and fruit vegetables. Soil Pb and As bioaccessibility were also evaluated. Food chain transfer of Pb and As in vegetables due to surface contamination of produce samples were evaluated on the basis of cleaning procedures. A laboratory incubation study and a controlled greenhouse experiment were conducted on soils collected from the Tacoma site. Effectiveness of addition of laboratory synthesized ferrihydrite (Fh: iron oxyhydroxide) and TAGRO mix, each alone or in combination were screened and tested on the Pb and As co-contaminated Tacoma soil. Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy studies of Pb and As were conducted on incubation study samples to understand treatment-induced Pb- and As-speciation changes. Dilution of soil Pb (10 to 23%) and As (12 to 25%) were observed for biosolids amendment at the Tacoma site, while CGC amendment resulted in 20 to 50% dilution in soil Pb at the Seattle site. Biosolids and CGC amendments reduced Pb concentrations in the vegetables by 50% to 71%. At both sites, Pb concentrations of root vegetables exceeded the MLs established by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Arsenic concentrations in vegetables were below an estimated ML and were reduced by 46% to 80% when grown on biosolids amended soils. Laboratory cleaning further reduced Pb and As food-chain transfer in vegetables grown in contaminated urban soils. Laboratory incubation and greenhouse studies showed dissolution of Pb in TAGRO plus Fh, and Pb concentrations in Fh amendments were significantly lower than the other amendments. Bioaccessible Pb and As were low. Significant reductions in bioaccessible As were observed when soils were amended with both TAGRO and Fh. X-ray absorption spectroscopy results indicated that chloropyromorphite-like (stable Pb phosphates) phases were the most dominant Pb species. Arsenic existed mainly as As5+, scorodite (FeAsO4•2H2O)-like species in all the treatments ranging from about 60% (control) to about 70% (TAGRO plus ferrihydrite). Amendments utilizing both biosolids and Fh significantly reduce human exposure risks present in urban soils contaminated with Pb and As.

Pełny tekst źródłaThomas Aquinas is generally viewed as the chief proponent of the theory of delayed animation, the view that the human embryo does not at first have the rational soul proper to human beings. Thomas follows Aristotle's embryology, in which an embryo is animated by a succession of souls. The first is a nutritive soul, having the powers of growth, nutrition, and generation. The second is a sensitive soul, having the additional powers of locomotion and sensing. The third and final soul is the human, or rational soul, which virtually includes the nutritive and sensitive souls. Because Thomas holds that there is only one substantial form of a composite, none of these forms overlap to provide continuity. It is therefore exceedingly difficult to speak of the embryo as one enduring subject through the succession of souls. Moreover, because of the way that the nutritive soul is associated with plants, and the sensitive soul is associated with animals, interpreters generally hold that for Thomas the embryo is first a plant, then an animal, and with the advent of the rational soul, finally a human being. Those who write about the ontological status of the embryo assume that delayed animation necessarily entails delayed hominization, that is, that the embryo only becomes human at a later stage of its development, when it receives the rational soul. Those who hold a delayed animation view of the embryo often invoke Thomas' schedule of successive souls in the embryo as a model for viewing it as not yet human in early stages of development, linking hominization to the ability to perform intellectual operations. That Thomas specifies that a body must be sufficiently organized before the advent of the rational soul seems to them to solidify their view of the embryo as not sufficiently organized to be truly human. Additionally, even outside of an explicitly Thomist framework, Thomist metaphysical principles are often invoked in arguments that center on twinning and totipotency of blastomeres in the early embryo, and whether that early embryo is one individual if it is potentially many. Those who hold immediate animation views (i.e., the embryo receives the rational soul at once, with no mediate states) often adopt the strategy of importing modern data on the internal organization and self-directed development of the embryo, and argue that if only Thomas had known that the zygote was not unformed and undifferentiated, that it has within itself all it needs to become a mature adult human, he would have held that the embryo is immediately suited to receive the rational soul, and thus is human from conception. In this way they attempt to employ a change in scientific data to negate the need for a succession of forms in the embryo. The author identifies the being of the human embryo as a prior metaphysical problem within Thomas' work, and advances a different interpretation of his views: that the embryo, even before the advent of the rational soul, is human. To establish this claim, she traces the problems which emerge in the current debate about when the embryo becomes human, and argues that contrary to expectation, it is not necessary to equate immediate rational animation with immediate hominization, demonstrating that all other approaches yield results entirely untenable for Thomas. A survey of texts reveals that Thomas did in fact view the embryo as human before the rational soul, though he does not methodically work out the implications of that view in a number of areas. Moreover, a distinction based on a passage in Aristotle's Generation of Animals with regard to an additional meaning of generation may resolve the ambivalence in Thomas' account of the embryo as passive under the formative power of the father's semen. Finally, a third meaning of generation is offered to show that Thomas recognized and wished to resolve the difficulty of explaining the continuity and identify of the embryo in the succession of souls. What results is an immediate hominization view of the embryo that, because it accommodates Thomas' succession of souls and does not depend upon importing modern biological data on the embryo, is consistent with Thomas' account, and is thoroughly cognizant of the way Thomas viewed human nature and the final end of human being

Pełny tekst źródłaThis thesis is looking at female bodies and suffering in contemporary Australian fiction written by women. I am using the tools forged by psycho-analysis and humanism, and the feminist theories to work my way through the meanders of these narratives of anorexia, bulimia, and self-mutilation and baby-murder towards a deeper layer of meaning of body and soul, and offer an interpretation of this fiction in relation to the world of “real” women in contemporary white Australia. My thesis is that the body distorted functions as a sign, both reaction and language, which is interpreted as madness. The oppressed female characters inscribe the suffering of their souls on the canvass of their bodies. Ths strategies to cure “mad” women appear more as strategies to tame them than to heal them. The female writers I am looking at construct the body of their text as a palimpsest, in the same way as the body of the woman, mutilated, scarred or starved, is a palimpsest. These texts function as a discourse of defiance and acceptance of the discourses of patriarchy in force. The central issu is the conflation of fiction and reality. The mirror-identification of the reader transmutes these narratives into potential Bildungsromane. The risk lies then in the acceptance and re-inforcement of sexist / gender stereotypes. I argue that the female body bears the marks and scars of the history of women, the history of fighters and survivors. And that women who fight can become women who win

Pełny tekst źródłaIn this thesis, we analyse the most important meanings assumed by the human body, as they appear in the roman world of the Early Empire. Our analysis is based on the philosophical, religious, juridical and medical texts. In the period chosen for analysis, the hermeneutics of the human body is called to furnish the answers to a variety of questions, such as the definition of an ethics of power for the roman aristocracy given by the stoic philosophy, the transformation of the connubial law, or the setting up of the religious communities. Our objective is to analyse the fonction of the interpretations given to corporality within the making of these cultural phenomena of the epoch

Pełny tekst źródłaOnce activated, Dendritic Cells (DCs) migrate to the lymphoid organs and exert their role as professional antigen presenting cells. They are able to induce the activation and differentiation of naïve T cells into different types of T helper cells. The T cell response must be suited to the type of inflammation. This is ensured by DCs at two levels. First DCs are functionally plastic. This means that their behavior is subdued to the integrated signals coming from the inflammatory microenvironment. Secondly, the DC population is diverse. Indeed, different DC subsets have different functional specializations. My thesis was focused on the differential response of human DC subsets to Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). This cytokine is secreted by inflamed skin and epithelia, and strongly activates myeloid DCs. The TSLP-activated DCs secrete the inflammatory chemokines CCL17 and CCL22, prime an inflammatory Th2 response, and have been involved in the pathogenesis of allergic inflammation. By systematically comparing the response of human blood BDCA-1+ and BDCA-3+ DCs to TSLP stimulation we found that both of these DC subsets get activated by TSLP. However TSLP synergizes with TGF-β to induce the differentiation of blood BDCA-1+ and not BDCA-3+ DCs into Langerhans Cells. Moreover, TSLP induces cell migration and chemokine secretion only on the blood BDCA-1+ subset. Further analysis of the mechanisms implicated in TSLP-induced DC migration revealed that TSLP is required to induce DC migration, but this effect is dependent on the expression of a PTX-sensitive chemokine receptor. Overall our results reveal new precursor capacities of blood DC subsets, different functional properties of blood DC subsets stimulated by TSLP and highlight intricate mechanisms underlying TSLP-induced DC migration

Pełny tekst źródłaIn our environment, we are constantly exposed to multiple sensory stimuli that our brain has to analyze. To interact with the surrounding world, we have to integrate these different sources of sensory information. The study of the processes of multisensory integration are essential in understanding how our brain integrates the individual parts of an object defined by several sensory components to arrive at a unified percept. It is now widely accepted that the concurrent presentation of several sensory information about the same stimulus in different modalities can facilitate its perception. This multisensory facilitation seems to be subjected to specific rules since some factors influence it. Amongst them, we have studied, in our first experiment, the impact of three factors, namely saliency, semantic congruency and modality switch, on the detection of natural stimuli in humans and monkeys. Using natural stimuli enabled us to highlight the influence of the physical parameters of stimuli on multisensory integration. Moreover, we showed that the effect of these factors on natural stimuli are different from those found with simple stimuli. These results point toward multifactorial effects on multisensory facilitation, of which the force, the interdependency and the order would vary as a function of the behavioral task, and, thus as a function of the cognitive load. From an anatomical point of view and more specifically at the cortical level, the integration mechanism appeared to be, until recently, a characteristic possessed only by associative areas at the top of the hierarchy of information processing. We now know that low level cortical areas, thought up to then to be only unisensory, are implicated in multisensory processes, thus raising the question about subcortical areas. Anatomical studies have shown the existence of thalamic nuclei which, through their connectivity, could allow for a rapid transfer and even an integration of sensory information. This new literature demonstrates the high complexity of the multisensory cerebral networks. In two electrophysiological studies in the monkey, we examined the multisensory properties of two structures, the posterior cingulate gyrus and the median pulvinar, which had never been explored before in a multisensory context. We not only showed that these structures are multisensory, but also integrative and that they could be part of the same functional network. This thesis has brought additional elements towards a better understanding of multisensory integration processes at the behavioral level and about the underlying brain networks, in particular those linked with the integration of natural stimuli
