Wir wollen erstens einen methodologischen Beitrag zur Operationalisierung von Gerechtigkeitsurteilen leisten, indem wir ein neues Maß der Beurteilung von Verteilungsergebnissen vorschlagen. Ein Standardinstrument der Gerechtigkeitsforschung ist eine Itembatterie mit Ist- und Soll-Einsch{\"a}tzungen des Einkommens in neun verschiedenen Berufsgruppen. Die Itembatterie war in verschiedenen ISSP- und ISJP-Erhebungen implementiert. Gerechtigkeitsurteile sollten sowohl von den Werten, den Gerechtigkeitsprinzipien des Individuums, aber auch von seiner sozialen Lage abh{\"a}ngen. Wir gehen zweitens der Frage nach, wie sich die Finanzkrise von 2008/09 auf Urteile {\"u}ber die Gerechtigkeit von Einkommensverteilungen ausgewirkt hat: Hat die Krise dazu gef{\"u}hrt, dass eine st{\"a}rkere Nivellierung der Einkommensverteilung gefordert wird? Oder ist es vielmehr zu einer Polarisierung der Meinungen gekommen: Hat die Krise je nach Lage unterschiedlich auf die Gerechtigkeitsurteile verschiedener Gruppen gewirkt? Wir untersuchen diese Fragen mit Daten der W{\"u}rzburg- Barometer von 2008 und 2009 (Zufallsauswahl, N = 760) in hierarchischen OLS-Regressionsmodellen. Unser Redistributions-Index ri zeigt an, ob Abweichungen vom gerechten Zustand gesehen werden, in welche Richtung die geforderten Umverteilungen gehen (Einkommensdifferenzierung versus Einkommensnivellierung), und in welchem Umfang Umverteilungen gefordert werden. Dieser ri setzt den von den Befragten gesch{\"a}tzten Istzustand der Einkommensvariation zwischen Berufsgruppen zur Einkommensvariation im Sollzustand in Beziehung und dr{\"u}ckt Abweichungen zwischen Ist- und Sollzustand als relative prozentuale Differenzen aus.}, subject = {Gerechtigkeit}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-5579, title = {einBlick - Ausgabe 06 - 14.

It consists of two subunits - GABPa which contains DNA binding domain and GABPb, which provides transcriptional activation domain and nuclear localization signal. GABPa/b complex is essential for transcriptional activation of multiple lineage-restricted and housekeeping genes, several viral genes, and in some cases might function as transcriptional repressor. Large variety of data indicates involvement of GABP in the complex regulation of cell growth, specified by quiescence, stimulation/proliferation, apoptosis and senescence. Expression level of GABPa subunit is rapidly increased when resting cells enter S-phase, and GABPa/b complex is critical to promote the continuity of the cell cycle. Conditional inactivation of GABPa expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts results in a complete block of proliferation and acquisition of senescence-like phenotype. However, the influence of GABP on the other cell growth determinant - the apoptosis - remains largely obscure. Therefore we aimed to investigate the influence of GABPa/b expression level on the cell growth in vitro. Using siRNA approach we achieved efficient but only transient down-regulation of GABPa expression which precluded further cell growth studies. Persistent increase of the expression of GABPb subunit only resulted in a positive effect on the cell growth speed. Simultaneous conditional overexpression of both GABPa and GABPb subunits though, strongly reduced the growth of the affected cell cultures in reversible and in expression level dependent manner. Interestingly, GABPa/b overexpressing cells did show neither cell cycle arrest nor massive induction of apoptosis. However, more detailed analyses revealed that dampened apoptotic processes were taking place in GABPa/b-overexpressing cells, starting with a prominent activation of caspase-12. Interestingly, activation of downstream effector caspases was rather suppressed explaining a weak increase of apoptotic cells in GABPa/b overexpressing cultures. This effect suggests that the activation of caspase-12 by elevated amounts of exogenous GABPa/b reflects the normal physiological mechanism of caspase-12 regulation.}, subject = {Proliferation}, language = {en} } @unpublished{Reiss2012, author = {Reiss, Harald}, title = {Physical time and existence of time holes in non-transparent media}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-67268}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The analysis presented in this paper applies to experimental situations where observers or objects to be studied (both stationary, with respect to each other) are located in environments the optical thickness of which is strongly different. By their large optical thickness, non-transparent media are clearly distinguished from their transparent counterparts. Non-transparent media comprise thin metallic films, packed or fluidised beds, the Earth's crust, and even dark clouds and other cosmological objects. As a representative example, a non-transparent slab is subjected to transient disturbances, and a rigorous analysis is presented whether physical time reasonably could be constructed under such condition. The analysis incorporates mapping functions that correlate physical events, e, in non-transparent media, with their images, f(e), tentatively located on a standard physical time scale. The analysis demonstrates, however, that physical time, in its rigorous sense, does not exist under non-transparency conditions. A proof of this conclusion is attempted in three steps: i) the theorem "there is no time without space and events" is accepted, (ii) images f[e(s,t)] do not constitute a dense, uncountably infinite set, and (iii) sets of images that are not uncountably infinite do not create physical time but only time-like sequences. As a consequence, mapping f[e(s,t)] in non-transparent space does not create physical analogues to the mathematical structure of the ordered, dense half-set R+ of real numbers, and reverse mapping, f-1f[e(s,t)] would not allow unique identification and reconstruction of original events from their images. In these cases, causality and determinism, as well as invariance of physical processes under time reversal, might be violated. Existence of time holes could be possible, as follows from the sequence of images, f[e(s,t)], that is not uncountably infinite, in contrast to R+. Practical impacts are expected for understanding physical diffusion-like, radiative transfer processes, stability models to protect superconductors against quenchs or for description of their transient local pair density and critical currents. Impacts would be expected also in mathematical formulations (differential equations) of classical physics, in relativity and perhaps in quantum mechanics, all as far as transient processes in non-transparent space would be concerned. An interesting problem is whether temporal cloaking (a time hole) in a transparent medium, as very recently reported in the literature, can be explained by the present analysis. The analysis is not restricted to objects of laboratory dimensions: Because of obviously existing radiation transfer analogues, it is tempting to discuss consequences also for much larger structures in particular if an origin of time is postulated.}, subject = {Strahlungstransport}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-5514, title = {einBlick - Ausgabe 04 - 31.

The reduced blood supply leads to decreased delivery of oxygen and glucose to affected areas of the brain. Oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) can cause upregulation of glucose uptake of brain endothelial cells. In this letter, we investigated the influence of MK801, a non-competitive inhibitor of the NMDA-receptor, on the regulation of the glucose uptake and of the main glucose transporters glut1 and sglt1 in murine BBB cell line cerebEND during OGD. mRNA expression of glut1 was upregulated 68.7- fold after 6 h OGD, which was significantly reduced by 10 μM MK801 to 28.9-fold. Sglt1 mRNA expression decreased during OGD which was further reduced by MK801. Glucose uptake was significantly increased up to 907\% after 6 h OGD and was still higher (210\%) after the 20 h reoxygenation phase compared to normoxia. Ten micromolar MK801 during OGD was able to reduce upregulated glucose uptake after OGD and reoxygenation significantly. Presence of several NMDAR subunits was proven on the mRNA level in cerebEND cells. Furthermore, it was shown that NMDAR subunit NR1 was upregulated during OGD and that this was inhibitable by MK801. In conclusion, the addition of MK801 during the OGD phase reduced significantly the glucose uptake after the subsequent reoxygenation phase in brain endothelial cells.}, subject = {Blut-Hirn-Schranke}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-5477, title = {einBlick - Ausgabe 03 - 24.
