Mechanisms of resistance and iron metabolism in cancer stem cells
Lettlová, Sandra
(EN) Analogously to normal stem cells within the tissues, cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been proposed to be responsible for maintenance and growth of tumours. CSCs represent a small fraction of cells within the tumour, which is characterised by self-renewal capacity and ability to give rise to a tumour when grafted into immunocompromised mice. Cells with increased stemness properties are believed to be responsible for tumour resistance, metastases formation and relapse after tumour treatment. The first part of this work concentrates on resistance of the tumours, which is often associated with increased expression of ATP-binding cassete (ABC) transporters pumping chemotherapeutics out of the cells. For the purposes of this study, we utilized an in vitro model of CSCs, based on cultivation of cells as 3D "spheres". Expression profiling demonstrates that our model of CSCs derived from breast and prostate cancer cell lines express higher mRNA level of ABC transporters, particularly ABCA1, ABCA3, ABCA5, ABCA12, ABCA13, ABCB7, ABCB9, ABCB10, ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC5, ABCC8, ABCC10, ABCC11 and ABCG2 among the cell lines tested. The protein level of ABC transporters tested in breast CSCs showed higher expression of ABCB8, ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC10 and ABCG2 but downregulation of ABCB10 and ABCF2 proteins....

A History of Criminal Law in the Czech Lands in 1848-1989
Jablonický, Tomáš ; Kuklík, Jan (referee)
1 Summary Dissertation builds an objective, transparent, systematic and yet concise interpretation of the history of criminal law in the Czech lands in 1848-1989. The aim of this work is, however, not only to chronologically present the most important criminal codes, but also to tell a parallel story of criminal law science and criminology, which to a bigger or lesser degree substantially influenced the development of criminal law and criminal legislation. Therefore, this work also includes biographical and bibliographical profiles of leading Czech educators, criminal law scientists and criminologists - the founders and pioneers of Czech and Czechoslovak criminal law science, whose lives have been closely linked with the complicated socio-political events of the given historical period. History of criminal law shows a strong interconnection of criminal law and policy, which consequently causes the criminal law without proper criminal law science and criminology to be the most politically affected branch of law. For this dissertation is symptomatic the search for critical causes and factors that lead to progress or, on the contrary, to the decline of criminal law. In such moments, the criminal law science and criminology emerge again, naturally and clearly, from a scientific analysis of historical events of...

The Bankruptcy Detection in Insolvency Proceedings in the Czech Republic
Havlovicová, Eliška ; Smolík, Petr (advisor) ; Pohl, Tomáš (referee)
The Bankruptcy Detection in Insolvency Proceedings in the Czech Republic Abstract This rigorosum thesis presents a detailed interpretation of the term "bankruptcy" and its detection in insolvency proceedings in the Czech Republic. Detection of bankruptcy is considered to be the initial phase in the insolvency proceeding and is, in fact, identical for all insolvency proceedings. Despite common lack of attention, it is indeed a crucial stage since without proper hearing about bankruptcy and its adjudication one cannot continue in the insolvency proceeding. Eventually, the whole proceeding is encumbered with defect. Therefore, this thesis aims at introducing complex analysis of the first phase of each insolvency proceeding. This study first examines the term 'bankruptcy', both in the form of equity insolvency and balance-sheet insolvency. It lays particular emphasis on the latest amendment of act which came into effect in the second half of 2017 and which significantly adjusted definition of bankruptcy. This section also discusses imminent bankruptcy and conditions of its detection. Next chapter addresses the commencement of the insolvency proceeding and its impacts as well as all necessary requirements and appendixes of the insolvency petition. This paper distinguishes between insolvency petition filed by the...

Assets within the meaning of the Insolvency Act are intended to satisfy the debtor's creditors. The correct finding and recording of the relevant assets and the and the following stages of the insolvency proceedings have a crucial impact on the level of satisfaction that will be given to the debtor's creditors. Step by step, the present thesis introduces to the reader the legal regulation of the most important legal terms related to the insolvency assets. Starting with the definition of the term assets to the inventory phase, where the relevant assets are recorded. In the context of this phase, the thesis addresses the duty of co-operation by the debtor in the insolvency proceedings. The thesis continues to deal with the inventory of the insolvency assets, including the asset valuation. Not even the description of the possibilities of defending the wrong classification of the property in the inventory of assets is missing. The next chapter, in turn, deals with the handling and management of insolvency assets by the insolvency administrator. The last chapter focuses on possible ways of monetizing assets, whereby the different ways are compared to each other and the...
