SRT1720 Description: EC50: 0.16 μM SRT1720 is a selective activator of SIRT1. Previous in vitro and in vivo studies using various cancer cell models show the role of SIRT1 either as an oncogene or a tumour suppressor gene. The oncogenic potential of SIRT1 is exemplified by studies indicating that blockade of SIRT1, like other HDACs, triggers growth arrest and apoptosis in breast, colon and lung cancers.
Mahmud 1 Sharoze Mahmud Mr.B AP Lang and Comp March 17th, 2016 Columnist Assignment: David Brooks, The New York Times Article 1: The Benedict Option I. Annotation Author's Purpose: This is a critical review of the ideas expressed in Rod 'Dreher's book, The Benedict Option. Dreher sees the cultural wars over new realities (such as LGBT) as a threat to Christian faith, and suggests the option of St. Benedict (sixth-century monk) during the fall of the Roman empire, i.e. withdraw from the mainstream and establish
Callarman’s argument is that Chris McCandless made a lot of mistakes because he was arrogant and that he had no business going into Alaska with his Romantic silliness and he says that he was just crazy. I disagree with Callarman’s argument because I think that Chris McCandless (Alexander Supertramp) was not arrogant I think that he just wanted to learn new things. I also disagree because I think that Chris did have a reason to go to Alaska or else he would not have done it even if it just to go because he likes nature, and I don’t think that he was crazy at the beginning but I agree that he did start to get crazy when he was stuck in the wild on the bus. I don’t think that Chris is arrogant I think that he is just a guy who wants to learn new things about nature and just the world in general.
Gretchen Weirob’s argument is based on the view that physical identification is more important towards personal identity rather than psychological features. For example, Weirob believes that a person can identify with their body because they can see their body and it’s certain capacity; the body is very rational. Which is why she would not want her brain to be put into someone else’s body. She believes the body is the unique differentiation to an individual’s identification. Her argument becomes clear when she discusses the idea that someone can be manipulated, put under hypnosis or delusional to think that a different body from Weirob’s is Gretchen Weirob.
Yes on Proposition 57 When Robert Gonzalez was 17 years old, he was charged as an adult because the public defender said his actions were an”adult-like crime”. Robert Gonzalez was the “wheel-man” during a robbery. The sentenced Mr.Gonzalez got a sentence of 20 years with 4 months. Proposition 57 is mainly for the juveniles that are getting a second chance to go to rehab and to get better. Proposition 57 is trying to get passed because there are too many people that are getting put into prisons for reasons that can be solved another way.

In this article, the senator Bernie Sanders had a strong debate with the nominee to deputy by the president donald trump, russel Vought; about a post made by russel bought in 2016 implying that the Islamic community did not know Christ, and that's why they were going to be condemned. What Sanders considered discriminatory towards the Islamic community, and unleashed a long debate that had nothing to do with the current topic which was relevant to Russell's role in government. This discussion caused controversy because Senator Bernie Sanders was accused by some people of violating article IV of the constitution. This is a very complex issue because the statements made by Vought can be taken in many different ways because they are related to
Hi Yohan, I can see where you’re coming from in this discussion. I agree with you on some of your points. For example, I agree that Freire had an overreaction when he said that the banking concept had a “necrophilic” quality. Also, I agree that, due to their expertise, teachers should have more control in the room. The main fault I find in your post was when you said, “It is not the teacher’s job to spoon feed the information to the students and wait for them to understand the information, but instead to provide them the tools necessary to be successful in the future”.
I chose Prompt #1 and personally I find Callarman 's argument very valid. I agree with him completely in the sense that it was not a good idea for McCandless to leave the safe environment that his parents created for him by paying for his college education making it easy for him to fall into a career and get his life started. It was very selfish of him to have his parents pay for his education then just throw it away like it was nothing. McCandless had a good idea of going out and finding himself but he should have executed it differently. I think that he wasn’t trying to be arrogant but at the beginning he was without realizing it.
When arguing that emancipatory movements have been plagued by an antinomy between a politics of ‘redistribution’ and a politics of ‘recognition’, Nancy Fraser is specifically referring to the manner by which cultural recognition displaces socioeconomic redistribution as a remedy for injustice and the goal for political struggle. In order to thoroughly investigate this dilemma Fraser analytically distinguishes the different logics behind ‘redistribution’ and ‘recognition’, while situating them into current political predicaments. From her extensive analysis Fraser proposes two broad remedies that can cut across the redistribution-reconstruction divide.
Daniel Garcia TH 1:30-2:50pm March 14, 2017 Advanced Concepts in Criminal Justice From the works of Morenoff and Astor, we are to explain why crime might be higher among second generation immigrant Americans. Though there are many assimilation theories which coincides with this, Portes and Zhou’s theory of segmented assimilation stands up to be the strongest of them all. My reasoning behind it is based on the array of the data from Morenoff and Astor collected in this article and my own interpretation which I experienced first hand. The article shows segmented assimilation branching out to two main scenarios of the straight line assimilation, the positive and the negative. Segmented assimilation is carried though by the immigrants themselves or by their offspring adopting aspects of the culture in which they 're residing in.
This historical and extraordinary document was drafted by Elizabeth Cady Stanton at the convention for the women`s rights at Seneca Falls in New York on July 19 and 20, 1848. This declaration is a political and written text, given its discursive nature It was the beginning of the feminist movement in United States. In fact, it is believed this Declaration of Sentiments to be the first wave of american feminism, the first step to get rights for women and freedom as well.
Sprigg’s viewpoint is that “homosexual relationships are not marriage because they are not between the union of a man and a woman and that homosexual relationships are harmful because they do not provide the same benefits to society as heterosexual marriages, but their consequences are far more negative than positive” (Finsterbusch, 2012, p.124). Sprigg’s comments are supported by figures on higher rates of diseases, higher rates of mental health issues, and national opinion polls that say people do not support gay marriage. He has some valid points and does have his opinion about the subject. However, when it comes to same-sex marriages I am divided on this subject for different reasons. First, I think we should not judge people or what
Shortly after, Kelly did not pay her rent on time and had been evicted by her landlord. She then realized that she used all her money from her parents to purchase more drugs and that she was indeed homeless. Kelly had also learned that she was losing her rights of her daughter, Cassidy. Though Kelly was distraught that her life had taken a dramatic turn, she decided to take another hit of heroin to calm herself down. She thought, “I don’t care about anybody
With the year-round pressure pertaining to college applications on high school seniors follows the impending decision of choosing an appropriate college major. Generally, the decision-making process involves prioritizing one field of interest over another, however, due to globalization and constant innovation in technology determining a college major has increasingly become the modern day equivalent of the metaphorical line between life and death. Even so, the obvious choice would be the prestigious STEM fields over liberal arts due to the instant job opportunities which are seemingly ludicrous to a recent graduate. Nevertheless, liberal arts education should be encouraged to be pursued at higher education institutions in USA because it helps
