The Consequences of Breaching the Rules of Evidence for the Effectiveness of the Evidence
Zelenka, Jan ; Bohuslav, Lukáš (referee)
1 The Consequences of Breaching the Rules of Evidence for the Effectiveness of the Evidence Abstract This diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of ineffective evidence in criminal procedures as a result of a breach the rules of evidence. The aim of the thesis is to submit current regulations about evidence in the Czech legal system, evaluate it and shine a light on certain problems. Can a criminal procedure be just if the essential principles are trampled on and the government breaks the law? Are there any barriers preventing geovernment arbitrariness? This thesis tries to answer these questions by introducing legal institutes based on area of evidence in criminal procedure. Thesis consists of six parts - four chapters, introduction and conclusion. The first chapter deals generally with evidence and its specifics in criminal law. It defines crucial terminology to understand this topic thoroughly and shines a light on principles of evidence. The second chapter revolves around admissibility and especially efficiency of evidence as a result of a breach in the rules of evidence by law enforcement. That breach of evidence has to fulfill a certain level of severity which has an important part in evidence ineffectivity. In the very last part of this chapter the author suggests legislative changes according to a...

The role of oxidative stress in hepatocarcinogenesis.
Kubíčková, Kristýna ; Vítek, Libor (advisor) ; Zelenka, Jaroslav (referee) ; Fraňková, Soňa (referee)
This thesis focuses on the importance of heme catabolic pathway in hepatic carcinogenesis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignant liver tumour. It is primarily caused by hepatic cirrhosis or chronic viral hepatitis. Hepatic carcinogenesis is associated with increased oxidative stress. Thus, our study aimed to assess the expression of the genes involved in the homeostasis of oxidative stress in patients with HCC. The study was performed on patients with primary HCC (n = 29) and control subjects (n = 11), gene expressions of heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1), biliverdin reductase A/B (BLVRA/B), endothelial growth factor (VEGFA), NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) and p22phox were analyzed in the liver tissue; the identical gene expressions were analyzed in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) in HCC patients (n = 32) and in healthy controls (n = 27). Expression of BLVRA in liver tissue and PBL was significantly increased in cancer patients, as was NOX2 expression in PBL. Expression of VEGFA in liver tissue and PBL was significantly decreased in cancer patients. The expression of the other genes studied did not differ between HCC patients and controls. These data are consistent with the results of our previous study on patients with chronic hepatitis C, in which BLVRA expression was also...

Mechanisms of regulation of inhibitory factor IF1
Sklenář, Filip ; Dlasková, Andrea (advisor) ; Zelenka, Jaroslav (referee)
Inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) is one of the major regulators of mitochondrial ATP synthase activity, a key enzyme of energy metabolism. Its inhibitory effects are known in conditions such as hypoxia or starvation, but the hypothesis that IF1 inhibits ATP synthase activity even under physiological conditions is still not entirely accepted. Disorders of ATP synthase regulation can be fatal to the cell and have been described, for example, in carcinogenesis and ischemia. It has also been found that silencing of the IF1 gene in pancreatic β-cells increases insulin secretion, and thus, IF1 may be important in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. The goal of this work is to summarize the current knowledge about the IF1 protein and to obtain new results that will help elucidate the mechanism by which this protein regulates mitochondrial ATP synthase. Specifically, this work deals with the ratio of IF1 protein to ATP synthase in pancreatic β-cells, depending on different culture conditions. It further investigates the occurrence of post-translational modifications of the IF1 protein in pancreatic β-cells (INS- 1E model cells), which may play a role in the regulation of IF1 activity. It also deals with the cellular ATP/ADP ratio, which is one of the key factors for insulin secretion by pancreatic β-cells. An...

Comparison of the French interventions in Mali and CAR
Zelenka, Jan ; Doboš, Bohumil (advisor) ; Kofroň, Jan (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Comparation of French military interventions in Mali and Central African Republic" will examine problematics of French military interventions in Africa specifically in countries of the formal French colonial empire. Rational choice theory has been chosen as a theoretical base for explanation of French actions. First of all this thesis will describe deeper historical context and current French involvement in particular region. Later on the theory for explanation of contemporary French actions will be presented and it will include definition of main political, economic, social and security motives that can be universally applicable on French presence in the region. This theory will be tested on two recent cases of military interventions. Mali and Central African Republic will be two cases of comparation. In main part of this thesis French military interventions in these states and their comparation will be described. In each case of intervention their course of conflict, form of French intervention, major motives and international reception will be covered. Main objective of this comparation is an overall collation of specific motives of France for operation in these countries while it will focus on strategic, political and economic motives. Military comparation will be included as...

Origins of intentionality and Husserl's late thinking
Zelenka, Jiří ; Novotný, Karel (advisor) ; Zika, Richard (referee)
This work aims to pursue the roots and sources of intentionality. Intentional structure of consciousness is the very core of Edmund Husserl's phenomenology and plays the main role since his Logical investigations. The problem of intentionality is complicated and complex and resonates through the Husserl lifelong work Our starting point is Husserl's late work Erfahrung und Urteil. The reason why we choose this work is twofold. First, this work shows the thoughts which result from the life long investigation of problematics. And the second reason is, this work hasn't been the subject of examination as much as Husserl's earlier works so far. The key to our work is the perspective in which every phenomenon shows. That's the reason, why we follow intentionality in three perspectives, which gradually uncovers itselves. The first perspective is the descent from acts of judgment to the original layers of intentionality. This brings us to the second perspective, which is the instinctive intentionality. This is the subject of following part of our work. The exposing of instinctive intentionality underlines the role of embodiment. The importance of embodiment in regard to intentionality is the final perspective. We investigate this with help of Maurice Merleau-Ponty Phenomenology of perception. This will...

Organic-Inorganic Polymer Nanocomposites
Ponyrko, Sergii ; Matějka, Libor (advisor) ; Krakovský, Ivan (referee) ; Zelenka, Jiří (referee)
The epoxy based polymer is one of the very common polymers, which was used as a host to create new better materials - nanocomposites. This thesis focused on the improvement of the thermomechanical properties of the epoxy thermosets without deteriorating their existing benefits and on further potential application of this knowledge in "smart" systems. The largest part of this work is dedicated to the reinforcement of epoxy thermosets by in situ generated silica and synthesis of organic-inorganic nanocomposites. Borontrifluoride monoethylamine (BF3MEA) was chosen as effective catalyst for the formation of nanosilica in epoxy-amine network matrix under nonaqueous (non-hydrolytic) sol-gel process. We proposed the mechanism of the nonaqueous sol-gel procedure, studied the structure evolution during the nanocomposite formation, and also determined the structure, morphology and thermomechanical properties of the obtained epoxy-silica nanocomposites. Significant attention in this work was given to the application of coupling agent and ionic liquids to improve compatibilization of the organic matrix and the inorganic part. As a result of the nonaqueous sol-gel process optimization by combination of the tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) and the coupling agent glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GTMS), the high-Tg and...
