Abstract

The article is intended to give basic information and the role of homocysteine in the human body. The amino acid homocysteine is a product of methionine demethylation. When the level of homocysteine increases, it damages the tissue structures of the arteries, initiating the release of cytokines, cyclins and other inflammatory mediators. Its accumulation leads to loosening of the arterial walls, the formation of local defects in the endothelium, which, in turn, leads to the deposition of cholesterol and calcium on the vascular wall. Hyperhomocysteinemia as a consequence of impaired homocysteine metabolism is considered an independent risk factor for stroke in humans. The role of neuroprotective therapy in interrupting or slowing down the sequence of damaging biochemical and molecular processes that can cause irreversible ischemic brain damage is shown.

This is certainly true since the last one and a half decades with respect to the world-wide information systems like the Internet, World Wide Web, and other means of data retrieval and access leading to hardly solvable questions of moral responsibility for the data stored or manipulated which cannot be allocated or assigned to a respective one and only bearer of the responsibility anymore

  • It seems that human responsibility for consequences and developments in comprehensively interconnected and complex information systems can neither ethically nor legally be borne by an individual person any longer nor by a rather vague and almost unlimited set of agents whether individual or group-sized

Summary

Introduction

The traditional, rather sharp separation between and by disciplines is not anymore to be upheld, if not just for operative, methodological or methodical reasons. This certainly leads to respective challenges on the side of scientific methodologists on the one hand, and of social scientists, social philosophers, and moral philosophers on the other. We all know the problems resulting from the handling of documentation systems, the retrievability of data, the almost unlimited possibility of combining data with respect to data protection problems, respective legislations etc. Some even fear that we are on the brink of or already living in a “computerocracy” – being the fate and development of mass societies which
