Origins of vertebrate hematiopoiesis
Svoboda, Ondřej ; Bartůněk, Petr (advisor) ; Divoký, Vladimír (referee) ; Živný, Jan (referee)
(ENGLISH) Hematopoiesis is dependent on the actions of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). This process is tightly controlled through a complex array of extrinsic and intrinsic factors. Even though the hematopoiesis seems to be well conserved across the disparate vertebrate animals, erythroid and thrombocytic differentiation have changed during the evolution of mammals. Specifically, adult mammalian red blood cells have the unique feature of being enucleated, and mammalian thrombocytes are not individual cells, but fragments of megakaryocytes, instead. It is likely that these enhancements provided a survival advantage to early mammalian species; however, they also bring up the question of evolutionary origin of these cells that studied using zebrafish (Danio rerio) model. First, it was necessary to generate a toolbox of a recombinant cytokines and optimized culture media that allowed us to manipulate zebrafish hematopoietic cells ex vivo in liquid and clonal cultures. Interestingly, teleost species underwent an extra duplication event during their evolution and as a result, two copies (paralogs) of some of the genes are present in zebrafish. This was also the case for majority of the cytokines from our toolbox and here, we provide functional characterization of these paralogs. Strikingly, our results...

Regulation of tobacco advertising
Jiroutová, Adéla ; Písař, Pavel (advisor) ; Zemplinerová, Alena (referee)
Our first task will be return to the history of the USA. We will look back at trends in tobacco advertising regulation during the history, we will identify causes of this regulation and reaction of economical subjects at it. We will compare the situation of tobacco advertising and sponsorship in the European Union with regulation in the Czech Republic. Our next step will be discovering consumption trends and complexity of anti-tobacco policy in different countries within the EU. Main purpose of my work is to assess whether the regulation of tobacco advertising reached its goals. We will try to point out some falsehoods about the necessity of this regulation. We will evaluate influence of tobacco advertising on young people. We will do our best to answer the question, whether the bann of tobacco advertising has a direct impact on consumption of tobacco products. We will compare consumption of tobacco products in counties, where tobacco advertising is banned with countries, where tobacco advertising has not been prohibited. The conclusions of international studies, which deal with this topic, will be our main source of information. The economical aspects of tobacco advertising regulation and its real impact on economy will be our next object of observation. At last we will identify other effects of regulation.

Activities of Agrofert holding covered by Mladá fronta Dnes and Lidové noviny before and after their takeover by Andrej Babiš
Havlová, Laura ; Hájek, Roman (advisor) ; Němeček, Tomáš (referee)
Exploration of the influences that an owner can have on his own media is an important topic nowadays. This master thesis focuses on the possible owner influences on his newspaper in the example of buying of the publishing house Mafra by Agrofert's owner Andrej Babis. It covers articles concerning Agrofert in two of Mafra's dailies - Mlada fronta Dnes and Lidove noviny. The reporting period covers two years before and two years after the purchase of Mafra by the owner of Agrofert and the current Czech Minister of Finance Andrej Babis. This covers the dates 5. 6. 2011 - 24. 6. 2013 and 25. 6. 2013 - 24. 6. 2015. This thesis uses the processes of quantitative content analysis and focuses on the comparison of texts about Agrofert in these two periods. In the sample of 631 articles it examines two dozen categories, such as topic, placement on the page as well as in the daily itself or quotation of Andrej Babis, and it tracks the changes that occurred in both halves of the reporting period. The shift in content of the Mafra's media, after the change of its owner has not been largely examined yet. This means that this thesis brings a first complex insight into the topic. This thesis aims to cover the changes that occurred in the reporting period and paves the way for more specific following researches....

Portrayal of war prisoners in american media after the election of Barack Obama
Jelínek, Jiří ; Kruml, Milan (advisor) ; Jirák, Jan (referee)
The US attitude towards the prisoners of war, more accurately its media portrayal, is the main theme of this bachelor thesis. The main goal of this thesis is to find out whether this attitude in real situation corresponds with the similar attitude in the US movies and series. The real one has been changing significantly since 2001 depending on the Afghanistan and Iraq situation, and also on the decisions of the Supreme Court of the US and the people opinion. This thesis is based on official documents of the US administration as well as on several movies (24, Homeland, Zero Dark Thirty and Ghosts of Abu Ghraib). The essential thesis whether the real attitude was reflected in the movies was generally confirmed, however the differences between pictures were considerable, therefore the overall generalization is not possible.

Practical dramaturgy of a great drama house
Rubenová, Sylvie ; SÍLOVÁ, Zuzana (advisor) ; KORČÁK, Jakub (referee)
The aim of the diploma thesis Practical dramaturgy of a great drama house (Is it possible to create a conscious artistic concept in the National theatre?) is to try to reflect practical experiences obtained during the first season as a dramaturg of the drama department in the National Moravian-Silesian Theatre and based on them to name the specifics and problematics of the dramaturgy of a great drama house in a regional city. NMST is a four department theatre operating two big stages (Jiří Myron Theatre and Antonín Dvořák Theatre) and a small stage (rehearsal room in Antonín Dvořák Theatre), where on all of them the drama department is operating. Therefore it is not a classical one department drama house as it is (like e.g. Vinohrady Theatre), but it is essential that in Ostravian theatrical context it fulfills exactly this function. Major role in the functioning of drama department of NMST is obviously played by two “systems”, which it is a part of: ie the National Moravian-Silesian Theatre (thus also other departments and its overall profilation) and Ostravian theatre scene, therefore I consider necessary to outline the wider context at first because it largely affects the drama department of NMST as its subset. The part of this work is also a pursuit of naming the task of a permanent dramaturg in this type of theatre, using which means he can (and must) participate on the directions and formation of the department, with short-term and long-term outlook, which comes obviously from the specific experience in this specific theatre. It is not the aim to pursue the past of the drama department of NMST, thus analysis of the historical tendencies of this department, but its contemporary situation, ie the present and possible future. Based on the analysis of the current repertoire and upcoming dramaturgical plans I will pursue the options and limits not only of this drama department, but of the great drama at all.
