SUL METABOLISMO DEGLI ORGANI DI RATTO PORTATORE DI SARCOMA DA BENZOPIRENE

Free aminoacids were estimated in benzopyrene sarcoma of rats and in some organs of the tumour-bearing rats (brain, heart, muscle, lung, liver, spleen, kidney). In the tumour the content changes according to the growth stage; in the advanced tumour a strong increase of serine-glycine, glutammic acid and treonine is observed. In the organs the free amino acid contents are diminished in the first stages of the tumour growth, while in the advanced stages there is a tendency to an increase with different values according to the organs. The oxidation process in the organ homogenate (with or without substrate addition) varies according to the stage of the tumour growth, more evidently in the org…

The Impact of Fiscal Consolidation on Human Development

We find that fiscal austerity is associated with a reduction of human development standards, with the negative effect being particularly severe in the case of spending-driven consolidation episodes. Fiscal adjustments are especially damaging for human development in developing countries (namely, African and Latin American countries). Additionally, the empirical evidence shows that (i) government stability is a crucial institutional determinant of human development, and (ii) while investment in physical capital can boost human development, government consumption and inflation are detrimental to it.

AMINOACIDI LIBERI NEL TUMORE DI WALKER E NEGLI ORGANI DEL RATTO PORTATORE

The free amino acids content in the Walker tumour and in some organs (liver, lung and skeletal muscle) of the tumour-bearing rats has been chromatograprically determined at different times after the tumour implantation. The contents were very poor in the first stages of the tumour growth but they largely increased with the tumour growth. In the organs of the tumour-bearing rats the aminoacids contents were considerably modified in comparison with the normal animals.
