THE ROLE OF BONE MORPHOGENETIC PROTEIN SIGNALLING IN THE CONTROL OF SKIN REPAIR AFTER WOUNDING Cellular and molecular mechanisms of cutaneous wound healing mediated by bone morphogenetic proteins and their antagonist Noggin Christopher John LEWIS Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Medical Biosciences School of Life Sciences University of Bradford 2013 Abstract The role of bone morphogenetic protein signalling in the control of skin repair after wounding. Christopher John LEWIS Keywords: Wound healing, bone morphogenetic protein, BMP, skin, keratinocyte, Noggin, Smad Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their receptors (BMPRs) coordinate tissue development and postnatal remodelling by regulating proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. However, their role in wound healing remains unclear. To study this, transgenic mice overexpressing Smad1 (K14-caSmad1) or the BMP antagonist Noggin (K14-Noggin) were utilised, together with human and mouse ex vivo wound healing models and in vitro keratinocyte culture. In wild-type mice, transcripts for Bmpr-1A, Bmpr-II, Bmp ligands and Smad proteins were decreased following tissue injury, whilst Bmpr-1B expression was up-regulated. Furthermore, immunohistochemistry revealed a down-regulation of BMPR-1A in hair follicles adjacent to the wound in murine skin, whilst in murine and human wounds, BMPR-1B and phospho-Smad-1/5/8 expression was pronounced in the wound epithelial tongue. K14-caSmad1 mice displayed retarded wound healing, associated with reduced keratinocyte proliferation and increased apoptosis, whilst K14-Noggin mice exhibited accelerated wound healing.

  • Mrs. Amina Mohamed Cabinet Secretary of Education Kenya Email
    Mrs. Amina Mohamed Cabinet Secretary of Education Kenya Email: [email protected] File Reference: RP/SV Contact: [email protected] 21 May 2018 Your Excellency, LACK OF SOCIAL DIALOGUE IN KENYA Public Services International (PSI) brings together more than 20 million workers, represented by over 700 unions in 163 countries and territories. We are a global trade union federation dedicated to promoting quality public services in every part of the world. Our members, two-thirds of whom are women, work in social services, health care, municipal and community services, central government, and public utilities such as water, electricity and education. PSI observes a worrying trend in Kenya in relation to the Government’s capacity to encourage industrial democracy, harmony and declining to address emerging industrial issues raised by unions. In February 2017, we already addressed a letter to the Cabinet of Health in relation to the doctors’ and nurses’ strike. On Friday 2nd March 2018, the Kenya Universities Staff Union (KUSU), called its members to withdraw labour in a national strike against the government and 31 public university managements for failing to negotiate collective bargaining covering the 2017-2021 cycle. This is the result of months of fruitless meetings without any concrete outcome. We further observe that the Government of Kenya, through its various agencies, has not availed of the instruments put in place by labour legislation to amicably address and improve emerging union concerns before they snowball into a crisis. It is important to note that long strikes are not only detrimental to harmonious working relations but also for the economy at large.

The education system has benefited from the valuable collaboration of many Egyptian officials and policy makers. First, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Government of Egypt, primarily the Ministry of Education. Several officials have led this office over the years, and we acknowledge each and every one of them. We are also grateful to staff in departments and units at the central, governorate (Muddiraya), district (Idara), and school levels. Success in the sector is due largely to the support and sincere cooperation of all these key actors. USAID would especially like to thank Dr.

  • Kenya Deputy President William Ruto 2021
    Meet the Real William Ruto MPs and other Mt Kenya politicians who insist they do not have a problem with President Uhuru Kenyatta, that their differences with Uhuru is because of Raila Odinga, or because they suspect Uhuru is not willing to support DP William Ruto for presidency in 2022, are either naive, or outright liars. WILLIAM RUTO WITH FAROUK KIBET During the weekend of December 8 - 9, 2019, DP Ruto attended events in at least 5 counties, including: 1. The African Independent Pentecostal Church of Africa (AIPCA), Mukaro Diocese, Giakanja, Nyeri County. 2. Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) Cathedral of St Peter’s Mbeere, Siakago, Embu County. 3. St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Mukuyuni, Makueni County. 4. Ndagani Catholic Parish, Chuka, Tharaka-Nithi County. 5. Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA), Kipipiri, Nyandarua County. Every politically enlightened Kenyan knows what these events represent. They could be termed prayer-worship, fundraising or whatever. But we know they are also campaign events, and have been going on for almost 2 years now. In fact, I don’t think any other Kenyan has ever spent so much time airborne, on Kenyan airspace, as DP Ruto has (apart from pilots & air hostesses). This is what I believe is going on: A little digression: Once upon a time, I worked for 3 months as a clerk in a government office. One day, I accompanied my boss as he went to buy some equipment in town. That was when I learnt why corruption is so prevalent in Kenya. The business itself encouraged corruption, probably so that one can become a frequent customer.
