Synthesis and Structure of Novel Copper(II) Complexes with N,O- or N,N-Donors as Radical Scavengers and a Functional Model of the Active Sites in Metalloenzymes. Int. J. Mol.

Opis:
To evaluate the antioxidant activity of potential synthetic enzyme mimetics, we prepared new five copper(II) complexes via a self-assembly method and named them [Cu(2-(HOCH2)py)3](ClO4)2 (1), [Cu(2-(HOCH2)py)2(H2O)2]SiF6 (2), [Cu2(2-(HOCH2CH2)py)2(2-(OCH2CH2)py)2](ClO4)2 (3), [Cu(pyBIm)3](BF4)2·1.5H2O (4) and [Cu(py2C(OH)2)2](ClO4)2 (5). The synthetic protocol involved N,O- or N,N-donors: 2-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine (2-(HOCH2)py), 2-(hydroxyethyl)pyridine (2-(HOCH2CH2)py), 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole (pyBIm), di(2-pyridyl)ketone (py2CO). The obtained Cu(II) complexes were fully characterised by elemental analysis, FTIR, EPR, UV-Vis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and Hirshfeld surface analysis. Crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses confirmed chromophores of both monomeric ({CuN3O3} (1), {CuN2O4} (2), {CuN6} (4), {CuN4O2} (5)) and dimeric complex ({CuN2O3} (3)). Most of the obtained species possessed a distorted octahedral environment, except dimer 3, which consisted of two copper centres with square pyramidal geometries. The water-soluble compounds (1, 3 and 5) were selected for biological testing. The results of the study revealed that complex 1 in solutions displayed better radical scavenging activity than complexes 3, 5 and free ligands. Therefore, complex 1 has been selected for further studies to test its activity as an enzyme mimetic. The chosen compound was tested on the erythrocyte lysate of two groups of patients after undergoing chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy. The effect of the tested compound (1) on enzyme activity levels (TAS, SOD and CAT) suggests that the selected complex can be treated as a functional mimetic of the enzymes.

Opis:
Wstęp Celem pracy była ocena zależności między ilością oddanej krwi a wysokością ciśnienia tętniczego u krwiodawców. Materiał i metody Badaniami objęto grupę 49 dawców krwi. Podczas wizyty, przed donacją, zebrano wywiad, dokonano pomiaru wzrostu i masy ciała oraz wykonano 3-krotny pomiar ciśnienia tętniczego przed donacją oraz po oddaniu krwi. W analizie uwzględniano średnią z 2 i 3 pomiaru. Badanych podzielono według średnich wartości ciśnienia, przed oddaniem krwi, na grupę (n = 28) z wyższymi (≥ 140/90 mm Hg) oraz niższymi wartościami ciśnienia (n = 21) oraz według mediany ilości oddanej krwi (7900 ml): < mediany (n = 25), > mediany (n = 24). W analizie stosowano test Shapiro-Wilka, Manna-Whitneya, test t-Studenta dla małych grup, test c2, korelację Spearmana, analizę wielokrotnej regresji,. Wyniki Zaobserwowano nieco większy spadek ciśnienia u badanych z wyższymi wyjściowo wartościami ciśnienia (9,2/4,1 vs. 4,4/0,8 mm Hg), ale wartości ciśnienia po donacji były u nich nadal znacząco wyższe niż w drugiej grupie (132,3/93,9 vs. 117,4/78,0 mm Hg). Grupy dawców, którzy oddali mniejsze i większe ilości krwi różniły się również wiekiem, wyjściowymi wartościami ciśnienia i wysokością ciśnienia po donacji. Spadek ciśnienia w wyniku donacji był porównywalny w obu grupach (7,5/3,0 vs. 6,7/2,3 mm Hg). W niestandaryzowanej analizie korelacji pomiędzy wartościami ciśnienia a ilością oddanej krwi nie stwierdzono znamiennych różnic. W analizie wielokrotnej regresji, po wystandaryzowaniu względem wieku, w grupie osób, które oddały małe ilości krwi, wysokość ciśnienia nadal nie zależała od ilości oddanej krwi, ale w grupie osób, które oddały więcej krwi wartości SBP (r = –0,15), a zwłaszcza DPB (r = –0,59) przed donacją (p < 0,05) korelowały ujemnie z ilością oddanej krwi. Wnioski Ilość oddanej krwi może stanowić czynnik ochronny przed wzrostem ciśnienia tętniczego z wiekiem.
Background The influence of the amount of donated blood by the blood donors on their blood pressure level. Material and methods A group of 49 blood donors was investigated. History, height and weight measurements were obtained from blood donors before donation. Blood pressure measurements were performed three times, before and after blood donation. Only the average value of second and third blood pressure measurement was taken for analysis. The studied group was analysed according to the mean value of blood pressure before donation: a subgroup (n = 28) with higher blood pressure (≥ 140/90) and a subgroup (n = 21) with lower values. Moreover we analysed donors according to median of donated blood (7900 ml): a subgroup with values below (n = 25) and above (n = 24) the median. The Shapiro-Wilk’s W test, Mann-Whitney U test, T-student test for small groups, c2 test, Spearman’s correlations, multiple regression analysis were used to show differences between groups. Results Slightly greater decrease of blood pressure was observed in a subgroup with initially higher values of blood pressure as compared to the others (9,2/4,1 vs. 4,4/0,8 mm Hg), however the blood pressure was still significantly higher (132,3/93,9 vs. 117,4/78,0 mm Hg) after donation. The subgroups of blood donors with larger and smaller amount of donated blood differed from each other in terms of the amount of donated blood, age, blood pressure before and after donation. A decrease of blood pressure that followed blood donation was comparable in both subgroups (7,5/3,0 vs. 6,7/2,3 mm Hg). There were no significant correlation between values of blood pressure and amount of donated blood. When age was included in the multiple regression analysis, in the subgroup with a smaller amount of given blood, a level of blood pressure didn’t correlate with the amount of donated blood, but in the subgroup with the larger amount of donated blood, systolic (r = –0,15) and especially diastolic (r = –0,59) blood pressure before donation was inversely correlated with the amount of donated blood. Conclusion The amount of donated blood can protect against blood pressure elevation later in life.

Opis:
Signalling concerns the transfer of information from one body, a source, to another, a receiver in order to stimulate activity. The problem arises with the word information. It is defined as what is transferred in a sequence of things, say between people, e.g. words or signs. The idea of signalling between people is then obvious but it is not clear in cell biology. Information transfer, signalling, is required for the organisation of all cellular activity but we must ask what is transferred and how is it transmitted and received? Sometimes it is assumed that all information, i.e. organisation in a cell, is represented in the DNA sequence. This is incorrect. We shall show that the environment is a second source of information concerning material and energy. The receiving party from both DNA and the environment is general metabolism. The metabolism then signals back and sends information to both DNA and uptake from the environment. Even then energy is needed with machinery to send out all signals. This paper examines the way signalling evolved from prokaryotes through to man. In this process the environmental information received increased to the extent that finally the brain is a phenotypic as much as a genotypic organ within a whole organism. By phenotypic we mean it is organised by and interactive with information from the environment.

Opis:
Introduction: Nearly all patients who die in Intensive Care Units (ICU’s) and Emergency Departments (ED’s) are potential corneal donors. However, the number of referrals from these groups remains low.Purpose: To identify the number of potential corneal donors in four ICUs and one ED and to ascertain how many proceed with donation.Materials and methods: The electronic medical records of all patients (n=233) who died in the five participating units from July to December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed using existing ocular tissue donor criteria to assess the number of potential donors. The Eye Donor Database and the Potential Donor Audit were also reviewed to determine how many potential corneal donors proceeded with donation. Results: Out of the 73% (n=170) eligible cornealdonors, 79% (n=100) were potential tissue-only donors and 21% (n=36) had the potential to donate solid organs and at least one tissue (corneas). While all 36 potential organ and tissue donors were referred to the Specialist Nurse in Organ Donation (SN-OD), none of the 100 potential tissue-only was referred to Tissue Services. Of the 36 potential organ and tissue donors referred to the SN-OD, only 11 proceeded with corneal donation.Conclusion: The results of this audit highlight a low conversion rate from a relatively high number of potential corneal donors. There is a need to increase corneal donation awareness among healthcare professionals and the public. It is also recommended the implementation of strategies to maximise the number of referrals.

Opis:
This article focuses on the development assistance provided by eight European Union countries, which are not part of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC). These are: Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, and Romania. A comparison is made between the performance data relating to these countries and that of the following 3 groups: a) the Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia (countries that have joined the DAC in recent years), b) so-called old EU members (EU15) and the so-called new members (EU13), c) the aggregate assistance offered by the EU countries and institutions represented on the Committee. By an analysis of OECD and World Bank statistics, we can see that ODA expenditure in absolute figures is primarily determined by a country’s GNI, and not by its relative wealth (GDP per capita) or quality of life (HDI score). This also applies to bilateral aid. However, the level of GDP per capita, and the HDI scores do have some effect on the percentage of GNI devoted to development aid.

Opis:
Betulin and its derivatives have been reported to affect several key genes of cell-cycle regulators. However, their specific targets haven’t yet been discovered. As an important cell cycle regulator, Cyclin-dependent kinase-2 (CDK2) has become a potential target for cancer therapy. Here we describe the design, synthesis and antitumor activities in vitro of eleven new betulin nitrates. The results revealed that compound (20) possesses potent antitumor activity against MCF-7 cell lines (IC50 < 10 μM). In order to investigate potential protein target, betulin nitrates were subjected to docking studies with CDK2. Compound (20) showed very good binding affinity for CDK2 via hydrogen bonding interactions. Thus, the CDK2 inhibitory potential could make compound (20) possible candidate as antitumor agent.

Opis:
Celem niniejszej pracy magisterskiej jest zidentyfikowanie problemów wynikających z kontekstu społecznego, które mogą mieć wpływ na sytuację finansową Stowarzyszenia „Tęcza” w Krakowie. Skuteczne finansowanie stanowi podstawę działania każdej organizacji. Kwestia braku stabilności finansowej organizacji pozarządowych jest szczególnie ważna z tego względu, iż organizacje te działają w imię wartości lub w interesie publicznym, ich działalność jest niekomercyjna. Analizie poddane zostały sposoby komunikacji z darczyńcami oraz sponsorami w kontekście pozyskiwania środków materialnych. Koncepcja badawcza została oparta na badaniach w działaniu.
The goal of this master thesis is to identify problems arising from the social context that may affect the financial situation of the Stowarzyszenie „Tęcza” in Krakow. Effective funding is the foundation of any organization. The issue of financial instability of non-governmental organizations is specifically important because these organizations act in the name of higher values or in the public interest, their activity is non-commercial. Methods of communication with donors and sponsors in the context of acquiring material resources have been analyzed. The research concept was based on action research.

Opis:
South Asia, East Asia and South-East Asia have a significant number of recipients of Official Development Assistance (ODA), including the Least Developed Countries. The importance of this part of the world in terms of global trade and geopolitics is self-evident and contributes to the reasons why major members of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), including Japan and South Korea, have a clear interest in being actively engaged in development cooperation within the region. There are, however, at least five emerging donor states, also active in the region, who operate outside the framework of the DAC. The aim of the text is to provide a brief comparative analysis of the development activities of: India, the Peoples Republic of China, the Republic of China, Singapore and Thailand.

Opis:
Since the first decade of the twenty first century Brazil, China, India and South Africa (BASIC countries) have substantially increased their development assistance to developing countries. Now, they are called the main emerging (new) donors. BASIC countries are donors and recipient countries at the same time. They still receive a lot of assistance from developed countries and international organisations. At the same time they provide development assistance to the South. As new donors they both change the rules of providing aid established by traditional donors and reduce the possibility of their impact on the economic policies of developing countries. The aim of the article is the presentation of development aid policies of Brazil, China, India and South Africa. The level of aid is estimated on the reports which are available on the government websites of BASIC countries and data presented by different authors in the literature. However, because of the complexity of the emerging donors’aid system, the figures do not fully show the actual state. Among BASIC countries China is the biggest donor and South Africa offers the lowest amount of aid. India and Brazil provided similar amounts of development assistance to developing countries in the years 2007-2010. The investigation shows that Brazil, China, India nad South Africa instead of providing conditional aid prefer development cooperation. They break with the hierarchical donor-recipient relationship, declare solidarity with Southern countries and respect their national sovereignty and independence. Moreover, they show greater sensitivity to the needs of developing countries and share with them their own experiences in the field of socio-economic development. Their development aid/cooperation is set to obtain mutual benefits and creates conditions for further economic cooperation. For BASIC countries the development aid/cooperation is also an important tool of their foreign policy. They often use aid to achieve political, strategic and economic objectives. However, their aid seems to be more attractive to developing countries and has a greater impact on their economic growth than the development assistance offered by the traditional donors.

Opis:
Liver transplantation is a well-established treatment of patients with end-stage liver disease and selected liver tumors. Remarkable progress has been made over the last years concerning nearly all of its aspects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the evolution of long-term outcomes after liver transplantations performed in the Department of General, Transplant and Liver Surgery (Medical University of Warsaw). Material and methods. Data of 1500 liver transplantations performed between 1989 and 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Transplantations were divided into 3 groups: group 1 including first 500 operations, group 2 including subsequent 500, and group 3 comprising the most recent 500. Five year overall and graft survival were set as outcome measures. Results. Increased number of transplantations performed at the site was associated with increased age of the recipients (p<0.001) and donors (p<0.001), increased rate of male recipients (p<0.001), and increased rate of piggyback operations (p<0.001), and decreased MELD (p<0.001), as well as decreased blood (p=0.006) and plasma (p<0.001) transfusions. Overall survival was 71.6% at 5 years in group 1, 74.5% at 5 years in group 2, and 85% at 2.9 years in group 3 (p=0.008). Improvement of overall survival was particularly observed for primary transplantations (p=0.004). Increased graft survival rates did not reach the level of significance (p=0.136). Conclusions. Long-term outcomes after liver transplantations performed in the Department of General, Transplant and Liver Surgery are comparable to those achieved in the largest transplant centers worldwide and are continuously improving despite increasing recipient age and wider utilization of organs procured from older donors.
