Modern cellular tissues have evolved into cell tensegrity structures, where cell strength and stability are established through supportive interactions. Tensegrity improves the efficiency of frequency spectrum use and signal quality in cellular networks. Research shows miRNAs play an important role in the regulation of gene expression in the immune system, providing new insights into the complexity of modern biological systems. Structural Design of Cellular Tissues involves computer simulation studies and laboratory experiments on cell tensegrity. Immune Regulation by MicroRNAs includes analysis of MiRNA gene expression and functionality using technologies such as microarrays and high-throughput sequencing. Data Integration includes identifying microRNA gene targets and understanding transcriptional regulation through methods such as reporter gene assays and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation to predict cellular responses in clinical scenarios. The complex interplay between cellular tensegratas mechanisms and immune regulation by microRNAs shows how widespread their interactions are in human biological systems. The cellular tensegratas structure helps improve intercellular communication, while immune regulation by microRNAs ensures the body's proper response to pathogens. Recent research on microRNAs has exposed their role in the development and function of mammalian immune cells. MiRNAs play an important role in the development and function of mammalian immune cells. The complex interactions between cellular tensile mechanisms and immune regulation by microRNAs demonstrate how structural and functional integration can improve the performance of human biological systems. Integration of these data provides a complete picture of the complexity of modern biological systems and their clinical implications in the diagnosis and treatment of immunological diseases.

This research aims to explore more deeply the phenomenon of slang use among UINSU Public Health students and its impact on social dynamics and the development of their identity. Through a qualitative approach involving in-depth interviews and participant observation, this research seeks to understand how slang plays a role in forming social bonds, creating a sense of belonging to a group, and influencing the way students interact with each other. Preliminary findings show that slang not only functions as a communication tool, but also as a symbol of identity and a means of expressing oneself. However, on the other hand, the use of slang that is too intense can blur the boundaries between formality and informality, thus potentially hampering the learning process and effective academic communication. Therefore, this research highlights the importance of balancing the use of slang with good and correct language rules, so that students can communicate effectively in various contexts without sacrificing their group identity.

Abstract. This study specifically examines efforts to integrate Balinese culture and madrasah through digitalization, as well as the challenges and opportunities faced in this integration. There are issues in integrating Balinese culture and madrasahs, such as the influence of global culture that may reduce the interest of the younger generation in local traditions, as well as the digital divide that hinders the spread of information. Additionally, inaccurate information and reduced face-to-face interactions obstruct a deeper understanding of both cultures. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. The results of this study show that this interactive learning not only deepens students' understanding of intercultural tolerance but also connects local values with religious principles, such as helping one another in Islam. Despite facing challenges like limited digital skills and the technology access gap, digitalization also opens up opportunities for closer intercultural collaboration and wider, more effective information dissemination. Abstrak. Penelitian ini secara khusus menelaah upaya dalam mengintegrasikan budaya Bali dan madrasah melalui digitalisasi serta tantangan dan peluang yang dihadapi dalam mengintegrasikannya. Terdapat problematika dalam mengintegrasikan budaya Bali dan madrasah seperti pengaruh budaya global yang dapat mengurangi minat generasi muda terhadap tradisi lokal, serta kesenjangan akses teknologi yang menghambat penyebaran informasi. Selain itu, informasi yang tidak akurat dan berkurangnya interaksi tatap muka menghalangi pemahaman yang lebih dalam tentang kedua budaya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini deskriptif kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran interaktif ini tidak hanya memperdalam pemahaman siswa tentang toleransi antarbudaya, tetapi juga menghubungkan nilai-nilai lokal dengan prinsip-prinsip agama, seperti tolong-menolong dalam Islam. Meskipun menghadapi tantangan seperti keterampilan digital yang terbatas dan kesenjangan akses teknologi, digitalisasi juga membuka peluang untuk kolaborasi antarbudaya yang lebih erat serta penyebaran informasi yang lebih luas dan efektif.

Social interaction between Muslims and non-Muslims is an important theme in communal life. The Qur'an provides clear guidance on how Muslims should interact with people of different faiths. Based on the interpretations of scholars such as M. Quraish Shihab, Hamka, Imam al-Razi, Ahmad Mushthafa al-Maraghi, and Dr. Aidh Qarny, social interaction between Muslims and non-Muslims should be based on the principles of mutual respect, kindness, and fairness. Qur'anic verses such as Surah Al-Mumtahanah 8, Surah Al-Hujurat 13, and Surah Al-Ankabut 46 emphasize the importance of maintaining good relations without coercion in belief and avoiding hateful debates, especially against the unjust. Islam teaches that debates conducted in a good and wise manner will strengthen interfaith relationships and bring people closer to the truth. In this context, Islam emphasizes the importance of maintaining good character in all forms of social interaction to foster peace and harmony in society.

Ikhlas : Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Islam 2024 Asosiasi Riset Ilmu Pendidikan Agama dan Filsafat Indonesia

This article discusses the concept of social interaction in Islam, particularly in the context of relationships between Muslims and non-Muslims. Islam teaches values of ukhuwah (brotherhood), tolerance, and justice in interactions with fellow human beings, both within Muslim communities and with those of different beliefs. The central principle taught in Islam is that there is no compulsion in religion (la ikraha fid-din), as religion is a personal choice and belief that cannot be forced. In the context of dialogue or debate with non-Muslims, Islam emphasizes the importance of good manners, politeness, and gentleness, so that debates or discussions can lead to the mutual discovery of truth without insulting or belittling others. Thabathabai’s interpretation explains that debating with non-Muslims should be done constructively, without containing any errors, flaws, or insults. However, debating with the unjust, who close themselves off from the truth, is considered unproductive and will only worsen the situation. This article also highlights that differences in religion, culture, and beliefs should be an opportunity for mutual understanding and cooperation in creating peace and well-being together. Islam teaches the importance of maintaining harmonious relationships with fellow humans, whether in social, political, or religious contexts, while respecting freedom of belief and personal integrity

The development of digital technology, especially social media, has brought significant changes in the way of interacting and communicating among the younger generation, especially Gen Z. Gen Z, who was born between 1997 and 2012, grew up in the digital era where social media became the main platform for connecting, sharing information, and building community. This study aims to explore the influence of social media on social interaction among Gen Z, with a focus on the positive and negative impacts arising from the use of social media in their daily lives. Social media allows Gen Z to connect with peers, form identities, and participate in various virtual communities. However, while it provides an opportunity to expand social networks, research shows that social media can also reduce the quality of deeper social relationships. Interactions that occur in cyberspace tend to be more superficial compared to face-to-face communication, which can interfere with the development of social skills and empathy. In addition, social comparisons that often occur on social media also affect mental health, causing feelings of anxiety, loneliness, and dissatisfaction with oneself.
