Logistics integration processes in the food industry

This paper analyses the integration process that firms follow toimplement Supply Chain Management (SCM). This study has beeninspired in the integration model proposed by Stevens (1989). Hesuggests that companies internally integrate first and then extendintegration to other supply chain members, such as customers andsuppliers.To analyse the integration process a survey was conducted amongSpanish food manufacturers. The results show that there are companiesin three different integration stages. In stage I, companies are notintegrated. In stage II, companies have a medium-high level of internalintegration in the Logistics-Production interface, a low level ofinternal integration in the Logistics-Marketing interface, and a mediumlevel of external integration. And, in stage III, companies have highlevels of integration in both internal interfaces and in some of theirsupply chain relationships.

Mécanisme moléculaire de protection des HDLs contre le stress du réticulum endoplasmique dans la cellule beta pancréatique. [Molecular mechanisms of HDLs to protect against the endoplasmic reticulum stress in pancreatic beta cell.]

Introduction: Les particules de HDL (High Density Lipoproteins) ont des fonctions très diverses notamment anti-inflamatoires, anti-apoptotiques ou anti-oxydatives. Chez les patients diabétiques, les niveaux de HDLs sont bas, les prédisposants ainsi à un risque élévé à développer une maladie cardiovasculaire. Sachant que le s HDLs ont également un effet protecteur sur la cellule beta, le but de cette étude est dinvestigué les mécanismes moléculaires de cette protection contre le stress du réticulum, stress qui contriubue au développement du diabéte de type 2. Résultats: La thapsigargine et la tunicamycine induisent lapoptose en induisant un stress dans le réticulum endoplasmique (RE) par un mauvais repliement des protéines dans le RE, ainsi que l'activation de l'UPR (Unfolded Protein Respons) avec trois voies communes de signalisation intracellulaire (IRE1, PREK et ATF6). Ces voix veillent tout d'abord à augmenter la capacité de repliement des protéines et le cas échéant à lapoptose. Nos résultats montrent que les HDLs sont capable d'inhuber lapoptose induite par la thapsigargine et la tunicamycine dans les MIN6. Dans le cas du traitement avec la thapsigargine, plusieurs marqueurs des voix UPR sont bloqués en présence des HDLs, suggérant que l'effet anti-apoptotiques des HDLs s'exerce au niveau ou en amont du RE. Les HDLS par contre ne bloquent par la sortie de calcium du RE induite par la thapsigargine ce qui indique que les HDLs n'interfèrent pas avec l'action de cette drogue sur sa cible (SERCA). Dans le cas de la la tunicamycine, les HDLs ne bloquent pas, ou très légèrement, l'activation des voix de l'UPR. La protection induite par les HDLs contre la mort engendrée par la tunicamycine s'sexerce dont apparement en aval de l'UPR et reste à être déterminer. Conclusions: Nos données suggérent que les HDLs sont capable de protéger la cellule beta contre le stress du réticulum mais apparement de façon différente selon les modalités d'inductions de ce stress.
