According to the numbness hypothesis, rejection may not result in negative affect, but rather create several "nonvalenced" feelings, including feeling shocked, neutral, and numb. These feelings are hypothesized to lessen the extent to which people respond emotionally to various situations (emotional responsiveness). This project investigates (a) whether rejection produces these rarely assessed "nonvalenced" states, (b) to what extent these states are similar to one another and not negative, and (c) whether these states account for rejected individuals' lack of emotional responsiveness.

[Why were they numb again? About the psychological condition of Holocaust survivors and attitudes of society and therapists].

Harefuah

April 2009

Department of Family Medicine, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Maccabi Health Insurance, Ramat Gan.

Unlabelled: During the first year after Israel's declaration of independence, 350,000 Holocaust survivors immigrated to Israel, about 1/3 of the country's population at that time. Their poor public image ("soap", "avac adam"--shadow of a man) and the Zionist--pioneer attitude of rejecting the "diasporal mentality", led to arrogance and disrespect towards the survivors. The attitude of therapists towards the victims has been influenced by the public atmosphere and their problems did not receive the attention they deserved.

Antiparallel segregation of notch components in the immunological synapse directs reciprocal signaling in allogeneic Th:DC conjugates.

J Immunol

July 2007

Division of Pediatric Hematology-Oncology and Bone Marrow Transplantation, Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA.

Direct T cell allorecognition underlies the development of a vigorous immune response in the clinical setting of acute graft rejection. The Notch pathway is an important regulator of Th immune responses, yet the molecular underpinnings of directional Notch signaling, otherwise critical for binary cell fate decisions, are unknown during autologous or allogeneic Th:DC interactions. Using the development of immune synapses (IS) in the allogeneic, human physiological Th:DC interaction, we demonstrate that Th-Notch1 receptor and DC-Notch ligands (Delta-like1, Jagged1) cluster in their apposed central-supramolecular-activation-clusters (cSMAC), whereas DC-Notch1 receptor and Th-Notch ligands cluster in their apposed peripheral-SMAC (pSMAC).
