Hi hazel!! Im also another hazel and chinese-filipino :)!! Im actually doing a paper on first hand accounts of women during the Mao era like diaries and such but most of the ones I’ve seen are published and filtered by western capitalists :/ I’m limited with what I can find on the internet (and pirating books) so I wanted to ask where someone can get more info on this since you’re very knowledgable based on your blog ^_^ ❤️❤️
Sure, I'll try to help as much as I can!
Now, I know you said there's only so much you can do for pirating books, but some of these from my GPCR post are really nice, specifically, Some of Us Chinese Women Growing Up in The Mao Era (libgen link) by Zhong Xueping, Wang zheng, and Bai Di. The documentary series How Yukong Moved the Mountains also interviews a lot of women so that might also be a good resource.
These articles are also good resources on women's empowerment during the GPCR:
Women’s Liberation Is a Component Part of the Proletarian Revolution
Working Women Are a Great Revolutionary Force
Liberation of Women
New Women in New China
These articles were originally printed in newspapers which you can cite as so. I'll also see if I can get my gramma's insight on the GPCR if I have a chance and if I do, I'll include it here as a reblog.
I can get PDFs of many books so if you'd like them and the libgen link doesn't work, let me know and I'll see what I can do!

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) and transformers have opened new possibilities for modeling protein sequences as language. Carnegie Mellon University researchers have developed a new AI model called GPCR-BERT that leverages advances in natural language processing to uncover new insights into the sequence-function relationships in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), which are the target of over one-third of FDA-approved drugs.
By treating protein sequences like language and fine-tuning a pre-trained transformer model, the researchers were able to predict variations in conserved motifs with high accuracy. Analysis of the model highlighted residues critical for conferring selectivity and conformational changes, shedding new light on the higher-order grammar of these therapeutically important proteins. This demonstrates the potential of large language models to advance our fundamental understanding of protein biology and open up new avenues for drug discovery.

The GPCR was started in 1966 and was conducted in accordance with what Mao and the Chinese communists themselves considered as Mao’s highest theoretical and practical achievement in combatting modern revisionism, preventing capitalist restoration and consolidating socialism. The GPCR was optimistically regarded as the guarantee for the worldwide victory of socialism and even for the imminent collapse of imperialism.
But after the Shanghai Commune, factional struggles and allegations against and death of Lin Piao surfaced, policy shifts were initiated by a Centrist-Rightist combination veering away from the proletarian class struggle and leading to the Nixon diplomatic visit, the rehabilitation and promotion of Deng Xiaoping, reinterpretations of the GPCR and the three-worlds theory by Deng and the increasing calls for modernization through capitalist reforms and opening up for integration with the US and world capitalist system.
After the death of Chou Enlai in February 1976, Deng was removed from office for promoting big comprador ideology. But after the death of Mao in September 1976, the October coup resulted in the arrest and imprisonment of the so-called Gang of Four by the combination of Hua Guofeng and Deng.
After the latter gained the upper hand over the former who resigned, the GPCR was declared a complete catastrophe, Mao no less was castigated for it and millions of CPC cadres and members were expelled. Liu Xiaoqi the No. 1 capitalist-roader was rehabilitated. The communes were dismantled and public assets were privatized in earnest. The sweat shop operations for the US market began.

TEXT ID: my favourite thing about G-protein coupled receptors is that the ‘G’ means it reacts with the ‘guanine’ component which comes from ‘guano’ which is literally the sh¡t of seabirds like el cormorán guanay (& even batsh¡t) and that ‘guano’ came from the Quechua ‘huanu’ or ‘wanu’ from the Incan empire

Background
There is mounting evidence that SARS-CoV-2 targets tissues beyond the respiratory tract. Long-term sequelae after COVID-19 are frequent and of major concern. Prolonged virus detection in the gut has been particularly intriguing. Of note, SARS-CoV-2 infection also disturbs the gut microbiota composition, a finding linked with disease severity in patients with COVID-19. Here, we aimed to characterize the functional role of the gut microbiota in the long-term consequences of COVID-19. To this end, we characterized the gut microbiota from COVID-19 human subjects and followed the effects of human fecal transfer to germ-free mice.
Results
The gut microbiota of post-COVID subjects (up to 4 months from the initial positive test) revealed a remarkable predominance of Enterobacteriaceae strains with multidrug-resistance phenotype compared to healthy controls. After fecal transfer to germ-free mice, animals receiving samples from post-COVID subjects displayed higher lung inflammation and increased susceptibility to pulmonary infection caused by an antimicrobial resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain. These mice also showed poorer cognitive performance associated with increased expression of TNF-α, reduced levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor-BDNF and postsynaptic density protein-PSD-95 in the brain, as well as alterations of several biochemical pathways. These alterations were observed in the absence of SARS-CoV-2, suggesting that alterations in the gut microbiota caused them. Consistent with this hypothesis, brain dysfunctions induced in a mouse model of coronavirus infection were partially prevented by modulation of the microbiota via treatment with the commensal probiotic bacteria Bifidobacterium longum 51A.
Discussion
our post-COVID subject group did not report higher antibiotic use compared to controls which raises concerns of a “silent” spread of antimicrobial resistance in the environment.
We found a predominant increase of AMR Klebsiella sp. in the gut microbiota of post-COVID subjects. This bacterium belongs to the ESKAPE group of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria and has been reported to be responsible for most nosocomial pneumonia infections caused in hospitalized patients with COVID-19
mice receiving a fecal transfer from post-COVID donors presented worse lung injury after infection with K. pneumoniae reinforcing the connection between gut and lung [75, 76]. Thus, modulation of the gut microbiota may be used as a strategy to prevent or improve host defense against bacteria in the lung.
We found an increase of cultivable Enterobacteriaceae in the lung of mice that received a fecal transfer from post-COVID donors, which was not observed in controls. This lung incremental colonization of LPS-producing bacterial could compromise the lung defenses against bacteria.
Previous studies have suggested that even minimal alterations in the lung microbiome were enough to affect the central nervous system, while major changes in gut microbiome were necessary [85]. Thus, lung alterations induced by the post-COVID microbiota in humanized microbiota mice might be associated with neurological outcomes. Our findings that the post-COVID microbiota can induce memory impairment in humanized microbiota mice are in accordance with the neurological outcomes in post-acute COVID in humans.
Production of metabolites, particularly SCFAs, by the gut microbiota is a major mechanism that explains the gut-lung and gut-brain connections [20, 88]. We found reduced levels of SCFAs, mostly propionate, in fecal samples from post-COVID donors, which may affect the gut-brain connection and help explain the neurological sequelae observed in post-acute COVID. Propionate has been shown to modulate blood-brain barrier integrity and the inflammatory response in microglia [85]. In line with our findings, decreased SCFA levels were associated with Alzheimer's disease in clinical studies and experimental models [89–91]. Biological effects of SCFAs are triggered mainly by direct binding to specific G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as GPR41 and GPR43, which are expressed in both peripheral and central nervous system [92, 93]. We also observed clear differences in the systemic levels of host factors, such as I-FABP and IL-10, indicating the loss in intestinal homeostasis in post-COVID subjects compared to controls. Indeed, I-FABP has been shown to be a relevant biomarker for COVID-19 disease prognostic
the probiotic B. longum 51A strain is the ability to produce high levels of SCFAs, which has beneficial effects in controlling host inflammation, particularly in the lung
Conclusions
Our results show prolonged impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the gut microbiota that persists even after the individuals have cleared the virus. Increased Enterobacteriaceae with antimicrobial resistance phenotype were of particular concern. Moreover, microbiota transfer from post-COVID subjects induced loss of brain cognitive functions and impaired lung defense in mice. Altogether, our work emphasizes the importance of microbiota as a target for therapies to help treat post-COVID sequelae.

«While the broad masses of labouring women all over the country were zealously studying Chairman Mao's writings and learning from Lei Feng and other revolutionary heroes' noble quality of wholeheartedly serving the people, Zhongguo Funu devoted a great deal of space of publication of such articles as 'Whom to Love?' and A Good Material Life is Happiness. What was this for? Was it an assumption that a revolutionary cadre did not know for what she was living? Actually, Tung Pien was opposing the giving of prominence to politics, opposing regarding class struggle as the key link, and opposing working for the sake of the revolution. In short, she was opposing the thought of Mao Tse-tung. She sold revisionist contraband goods to the broad masses of women in a vain attempt to dampen people's enthusiasm in studying Chairman Mao's writings, to drag people into the quagmire of indifference to politics and indifference to class struggle, and to let bourgeois thought rampage freely in the heads of the broad masses of women. For this reason, the discussions of the two topics were two big poisonous weeds opposed to the Party, socialism, and the thought of Mao Tse-tung.»

Thus, this method might be recommended for large scale and also long-term colmation checking applications.A new thioxanthone (Colorado) offshoot using the additional carbazole chromophore, that is thioxanthone-carbazole (TX-C) has been synthesized and also indicated. The photophysical attributes and its productivity to polymerize methyl methacrylate in the reputation along with lack of D,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) as coinitiator had been investigated along with in contrast to that relating to your commercially ready Arizona. TX-C is discovered to display better photophysical components plus both cases initiate polymerization better. Detailed real-time Fourier enhance infra-red scientific studies said that higher polymerization charges can be purchased any time TX-C along with DMA was applied. (H) 2010 Wiley Newspapers, Incorporated. M Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem Forty-eight: 5120-5125, The year of 2010Urgent situation treating obstructing colonic cancers depends on both tumour area along with period, general condition of the affected individual as well as physicians expertise. Right sided as well as transversus intestines preventing cancer are generally handled by simply right hemicolectomy-extended if required to the transversus colon-with main anastomosis. Regarding left-sided obstructing cancer, throughout individuals together with lower medical threat, principal resection as well as anastomosis linked to on-table colonic irrigation or perhaps guide book decompression can be executed. This stops your confection of the trap colostomy nevertheless is the chance of anastomotic seapage. Subtotal or even overall colectomy permits the doctor to be able to include swollen and also fecal-loaded intestines, and conduct one-stage resection and anastomosis. It's disadvantage is surely an greater everyday rate of recurrence associated with bar stools. It should be performed merely within the of diastatic intestines perforation or synchronous appropriate colon cancer malignancy. Inside sufferers with higher surgery chance, Hartmann process should be chosen. It enables the treatment of each obstruction and cancer malignancy, and also helps prevent anastomotic loss yet needs a subsequent functioning for you to turn back the colostomy. Colonic stenting will be technically successful in around 90% throughout specialised teams. It really is utilized as palliation within people together with disseminated disease as well as fill in order to medical procedures inside the other people. When stent placement isn't feasible, never-ending loop colostomy remains to be indicated in patients with large surgical chance. (D) Next year Elsevier Masson SAS.

Results: When compared with non-Indigenous, First Nations (however, not Inuit) acquired greater prices of maximum HBW (One particular.3% versus. 3.1%) along with severe LGA birth (14.6% compared to. 2.2%), and charges elevated as time passes. Very first Countries got progressively improved ORs using greater harshness of macrosomia, and interactions were most powerful for extreme HBW >5,000 g (OR=12.Some) along with LGA >97th percentile (OR=7.Only two). Conclusion: Inequalities in extreme macrosomia in between Very first Nations around the world and non-Indigenous Quebecers are usually obvious along with increased between 1981 along with 08. Implications: Studies are needed to establish precisely why macrosomia minute rates are increasing within Quebec's 1st Countries, and the way they will equate to Native sub-groups of demographically comparable nations around the world, such as Australia and New Zealand.Track record: The clinical utilization of BRAF inhibitors to treat metastatic melanoma is bound through the progression of drug weight. On this examine we researched regardless of whether co-targeting the MAPK and the PI3K-AKT pathway may reduce emergence involving level of resistance or present further expansion inhibitory consequences within vitro. Approaches: Anti-tumor outcomes of the mix with the BRAF inhibitor (BRAFi) dabrafenib along with GSK2141795B (AKTi) within a solar panel associated with 23 BRAF mutated cancer mobile traces were assessed about progress self-consciousness simply by an ATP-based luminescent assay, in mobile cycle along with apoptosis by simply circulation cytometry and on mobile signaling simply by developed blot. In addition, all of us looked into the odds of stalling or even preventing click here weight or perhaps attaining even more expansion hang-up simply by combining AKTi using dabrafenib and/or the MEK chemical (MEKi) trametinib through the use of long lasting civilizations. Benefits: Greater than 40% of the mobile collections, such as PTEN-/- along with AKT mutants revealed level of responsiveness in order to AKTi (IC50 smaller compared to A single.Your five mu M). The combination involving dabrafenib and AKTi synergistically potentiated progress inhibition within the majority of cell outlines along with IC50 bigger as compared to 5 nM dabrafenib. Combinatorial treatment method brought on apoptosis simply in mobile traces understanding of AKTi. Within long-term cultures of a PTEN-/- mobile or portable range, combinatorial remedy together with the MAPK inhibitors, dabrafenib and trametinib, along with AKTi substantially overdue the breakthrough associated with substance opposition. In addition, combining AKTi using the MAPK inhibitors in the first place supplied exceptional growth inhibitory effects when compared with addition of AKTi after continuing development of potential to deal with MAPK inhibitors during this cell series. A conclusion: AKTi combined with BRAFi-based therapy may gain advantage patients along with cancers sheltering BRAF versions specifically PTEN deletions as well as AKT variations.There is significantly curiosity about the application of anti-Mullerian bodily hormone (AMH) as being a biomarker in the evaluation involving ovarian hold, and also argument on their use as being a predictor of assisted reproductive : engineering (ART) results.
