Nanodiamonds Protect Skin from Ultraviolet B-Induced Damage in Mice
Wu et al. Journal of Nanobiotechnology (2015) 13:35 DOI 10.1186/s12951-015-0094-4 RESEARCH Open Access Nanodiamonds protect skin from ultraviolet B-induced damage in mice Meng-Si Wu1,2, Der-Shan Sun2,7, Yu-Chung Lin4, Chia-Liang Cheng4,5, Shih-Che Hung7, Po-Kong Chen2, Jen-Hung Yang6,7,8 and Hsin-Hou Chang2,3,5,7* Abstract Background: Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes various deleterious effects, and UV blockage is recommended for avoiding sunburn. Nanosized titanium dioxide and zinc oxide offer effective protection and enhance cosmetic appearance but entail health concerns regarding their photocatalytic activity, which generates reactive oxygen species. These concerns are absent in nanodiamonds (NDs). Among the UV wavelengths in sunlight, UVB irradiation primarily threatens human health. Results: The efficacy and safety of NDs in UVB protection were evaluated using cell cultures and mouse models. We determined that 2 mg/cm2 of NDs efficiently reduced over 95% of UVB radiation. Direct UVB exposure caused cell death of cultured keratinocyte, fibroblasts and skin damage in mice. By contrast, ND-shielding significantly protected the aforementioned pathogenic alterations in both cell cultures and mouse models. Conclusions: NDs are feasible and safe materials for preventing UVB-induced skin damage. Keywords: Nanodiamonds, Ultraviolet, Sunburn, Sunscreen Background [5].

Social Memory and Social Movement on Indigenous Formosa
Remembrance as Resistance: Social Memory and Social Movement on Indigenous Formosa Scott Simon, Associate Professor Department of Sociology and Anthropology University of Ottawa, CANADA [email protected] Paper presented at the Third European Association of Taiwan Studies Conference, Paris, France, March 30-31, 2006 Working Draft: Please do not cite or quote without the written permission of the author. ABSTRACT: Sixty years after the conclusion of World War II, memories of the Japanese occupation of Taiwan remain a part of social and political life in the country. In the weeks leading up to the 2005 county and township elections, for example, the KMT headquarters in Taipei were adorned with an enormous image of Mona Ludaw, the aboriginal hero who had led a rebellion against the Japanese in 1930. The use of this particular image has historical precedents in KMT historical narrative of that rebellion illustrating resistance against Taiwan’s colonial overlords on behalf of the Republic of China. The electoral image, meant to appeal to the party’s hard-core Mainlander supporters, uses social memory of anti-Japanese rebellion to reinforce its image as the carrier of Chinese nationalism. In this discourse, the DPP and its supporters end up looking sympathetic to Japan and nostalgic for colonial rule. But what of the memories of Taiwan’s aboriginal people, the families and communities of Mona Ludaw? How are images and perspectives of the Japanese period evoked in personal and social memories in their communities? This paper, based on anthropological field research and interviews with villagers of the Truku people (Mona Ludaw’s tribe), shows how aboriginal memories of the period both differ from and articulate with the social memories of Mainlanders and Native Taiwanese. -

Development of healthy cities in Taiwan The healthy cities movement began in 1986. It was first promoted by the WHO Regional Office for Europe, and primarily targeted European cities. After almost two decades of work, the results have been very good, and European healthy cities are now exemplars for the world. As a result, WHO regional offices have started to advocate healthy cities for each of their regions. In Taiwan, the Republic of China decided to participate in the healthy cities movement in the beginning of the new Millennium. The Bureau of Health Promotion (BHP), Department of Health called for a pilot proposal in 2003, a cross-disciplinary team of scholars at National Cheng Kung University won the project, and found collaboration from Tainan City, thus, pioneered the healthy city development in Taiwan. BHP has since continued to fund other local authorities to promote healthy cities, including Miaoli County, Hualien County, Kaohsiung City and Taipei County. Since the results have been excellent, some other counties and cities have also allotted budgets to commission related departments for implementation. -
