N-Glycosyl Amides as Glycosyl Donors in Stereoselective Glycosylation Reactions
2004
Due to their high stability, N-glycosyl amides have so far not been considered as glycosyl donors for glycosylation reactions. Two new procedures for the cleavage of the anomeric amide functionality under mild reaction conditions and further stereoselective in situ conversions of the activated glycosyl donors with alcohols and amines to give β-configured O- and N-glycosides are described in this article.
Sin registro de donantes de gametos: cerca de treinta años esperando su creación
2015
En este estudio planteamos la necesidad de un registro de donantes de gametos y presentamos las claves de por qué no existe aún en España un registro de estas características. Frente a las consecuencias negativas que se pueden derivar de la inexistencia de este tipo de registro, reflexionamos sobre la conveniencia y oportunidad de crear una red de registros de donantes para la medicina del siglo XXI In this study it is stated the idea that a register for gametes donors is necessary and we identify the key points explaining why such a register does not exist in Spain. Facing the negative consequences derived from the nonexistence of register for gametes donors, we make a mental construction …
Role of nitric oxide synthase isoforms for ophthalmic artery reactivity in mice.
2014
Abstract Nitric oxide synthases (NOS) are involved in regulation of ocular vascular tone and blood flow. While endothelial NOS (eNOS) has recently been shown to mediate endothelium-dependent vasodilation in mouse retinal arterioles, the contribution of individual NOS isoforms to vascular responses is unknown in the retrobulbar vasculature. Moreover, it is unknown whether the lack of a single NOS isoform affects neuron survival in the retina. Thus, the goal of the present study was to examine the hypothesis that the lack of individual nitric oxide synthase (NOS) isoforms affects the reactivity of mouse ophthalmic arteries and neuron density in the retinal ganglion cell (RGC) layer. Mice defi…
Nitric Oxide-Releasing Drug Glyceryl Trinitrate Targets JAK2/STAT3 Signaling, Migration and Invasion of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells
2021
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive disease with invasive and metastasizing properties associated with a poor prognosis. The STAT3 signaling pathway has shown a pivotal role in cancer cell migration, invasion, metastasis and drug resistance of TNBC cells. IL-6 is a main upstream activator of the JAK2/STAT3 pathway. In the present study we examined the impact of the NO-donor glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) on the activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and subsequent migration, invasion and metastasis ability of TNBC cells through in vitro and in vivo experiments. We used a subtoxic dose of carboplatin and/or recombinant IL-6 to activate the JAK2/STAT3 signaling path…

Debito e ingratitudine: la sovversione del tumulo donum nelle Troades di Seneca
2017
Il contributo indaga il sovvertimento delle dinamiche di dono e debito nelle Troades senecane, alla luce dei modelli etici illustrati nel De beneficiis. Nella tragedia, Seneca riscrive la relazione di reciprocità vigente tra Achille e i Greci secondo il modello analogico del debito. L’ombra di Achille, infatti, accusa gli Achei di sottrarre gli honores dovuti ai suoi Mani, dando prova di ingratitudine. Come praemium, l’eroe esige quindi il sacrificio di Polissena, che rappresenta un sovvertimento della pratica rituale dei doni ai morti. Per comprendere il significato antropologico di questa lettura, si opererà un confronto ragionato tra la rappresentazione della prassi cultuale con cui a Ro…
ROLE OF SICILY AND CIRCUM-SICILIAN ISLANDS AS RECIPIENT AND DONOR AREA FOR ALIEN MARINE MACROPHYTES IN THE CENTRAL MEDITERRANEAN SEA
2017
The spread of alien species is an ongoing phenomenon which is widely recognized as a major threat to biodiversity at all levels. The particularly high rate of alien introductions to the Mediterranean Sea has been mainly fuelled by the opening of the Suez Canal, by shipping, aquaculture and by a rising trend in seawater temperature. As far as marine macrophytes are concerned, a total of 134 species have been listed as possible aliens in the Mediterranean Sea. Among the possible pathways of introduction, shipping is considered the dominant vector of unintentional species introduction in coastal marine systems worldwide. Traversing the Strait of Sicily, the chief passageway from south to north…
Metilazione del DNA in artrite reumatoide
2005
Lo stato di metilazione del DNA genomico e del gene PTHrP è stato valutato con tecniche molecolari e citogenetiche in artrite reumatoide (AR), patologia autoimmune caratterizzata anche da alta incidenza di linfomi e da ipercalcemia per overespressione del gene PTHrP. La metilazione del DNA, infatti, ha un ruolo critico nello sviluppo delle malattie neoplastiche; il gene PTHrP avendo tre promotori uno dei quali contiene un’isola CpG è un buon candidato per la deregolazione da alterato pattern di metilazione locale. Le indagini sulla metilazione genomica, condotte su DNA estratto da sangue periferico di pazienti e di donatori e amplificato in reazioni di Methylation-Sensitive Arbitrarily Prim…
Selectivity of hydroxyl radical in the partial oxidation of aromatic compounds in heterogeneous photocatalysis
2007
Abstract The photocatalytic oxidation of different benzene derivatives has been investigated in order to understand how the substituent group affects the selectivity to hydroxylated compounds. Experimental runs were performed by using TiO2 (Merck) aqueous suspensions at natural pH irradiated by near-UV light. The organic molecules used as substrate contained an electron withdrawing group (EWG) (nitrobenzene, cyanobenzene, benzoic acid, 1-phenylethanone), an electron donor one (EDG) (phenol, phenylamine, N-phenylacetamide) or both an EWG and an EDG (4-chlorophenol). The results clearly indicated that the primary photocatalytic oxidation of aromatic compounds containing an EDG gives rise main…
Selective oxidation of phenol and benzoic acid in water via home-prepared TiO2 photocatalysts: Distribution of hydroxylation products
2012
Abstract The hydroxylation of phenol (a substrate containing an electron donor group) and of benzoic acid (a substrate containing an electron withdrawing group) has been carried out by the photocatalytic method in aqueous suspensions containing commercial or home prepared TiO2 samples. The aim of the work was to study the distribution of hydroxylation products when different photocatalysts were used and to correlate the selectivity to some physico-chemical features of the powders. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, determination of crystalline phase percentage, specific surface area and zero charge point. The photoreactivity results indicate that the prod…
