Carbon stock increases up to old growth forest along a secondary succession in Mediterranean island ecosystems.
2019
The occurrence of old-growth forests is quite limited in Mediterranean islands, which have been subject to particularly pronounced human impacts. Little is known about the carbon stocks of such peculiar ecosystems compared with different stages of secondary succession. We investigated the carbon variation in aboveground woody biomass, in litter and soil, and the nitrogen variation in litter and soil, in a 100 years long secondary succession in Mediterranean ecosystems. A vineyard, three stages of plant succession (high maquis, maquis-forest, and forest-maquis), and an old growth forest were compared. Soil samples at two soil depths (0-15 and 15-30 cm), and two litter types, relatively undec…
Functional genomics of Lactobacillus casei establishment in the gut
2014
International audience; Although the composition of the gut microbiota and its symbiotic contribution to key host physiological functions are well established, little is known as yet about the bacterial factors that account for this symbiosis. We selected Lactobacillus casei as a model microorganism to proceed to genomewide identification of the functions required for a symbiont to establish colonization in the gut. As a result of our recent development of a transposon-mutagenesis tool that overcomes the barrier that had prevented L. casei random mutagenesis, we developed a signature-tagged mutagenesis approach combining whole-genome reverse genetics using a set of tagged transposons and in…
Y salieron ilesos del fuego: Dn 3 en la obra de Romano Melodo
2020
El uso de relatos bíblicos constituye un recurso habitual dentro de la técnica compositiva del himnógrafo bizantino Romano Melodo. Por ello, en este artículo se pretende analizar la acomodación de un episodio concreto del Antiguo Testamento (Dn 3) a lo largo del corpus atribuido Romano y se cotejan los diferentes textos que pudieron ser tenidos en cuenta como fuentes.
La selección del convenio colectivo en empresas multiservicios. A propósito de la STS de 17 de marzo de 2015, rcud. 1464/2014
2015
El trabajo analiza la problemática más específica que suscita la aplicación del criterio sostenido en unificación de doctrina para empresas no ya con varias actividades, sino con múltiples. Así, en primer lugar, se reflexionará sobre el marco general de determinación de un convenio colectivo en función de la actividad empresarial. En segundo lugar, se incidirá en los criterios de interpretación que han manejado los Tribunales a la hora de seleccionar el convenio aplicable, entre los varios posibles, en este tipo de empresa. Y, posteriormente, a modo de conclusión, se realiza una valoración de estos criterios y principios generales, incidiendo en la línea interpretativa que abre la sentencia…
Pharmacological characterization of Uracil nucleotide-sensitive P2Y receptors in mouse ileum
2010
Since uracil nucleotide-preferring receptors, belonging to the P2Y receptor family and responding to either uridine triphosphate (UTP) or uridine diphosphate (UDP), have been proposed to be present at different cellular level in the gut, regulating various functions, we aimed to investigate whether their activation by uracil nucleotides may modulate the contractility of the intestinal muscle. Experiments were carried out in vitro, and the contractility of the longitudinal muscle from mouse ileum was recorded as changes of the isometric tension. UDP or UTP evoked a concentrationdependent, tetrodotoxin insensitive, contractile response. UDP effect was antagonized by suramin and by PPADS, P2 r…
A rare case of perforated ileal diverticulitis in a young man: A case report and literature review
2021
Jejunoileal diverticulosis is a rare, often asymptomatic condition, consisting of acquired false diverticula. Diagnosis of ileal perforation is usually made incidentally or after complications, including obstruction, haemorrhage and diverticulitis. A previously healthy 17-year-old man presented to the Emergency Department with diffuse abdominal pain and fever. CT scan showed air-fluid level in the RLQ and free intraperitoneal air and fluid. The patient underwent an urgent exploratory laparotomy with an intestinal resection and primary anastomosis. We report a rare case of ileal perforation, due to diverticular disease in a healthy young man, treated an urgent surgery. Such an event requires…
Une approche psychothérapeutique des phénomènes psychosomatiques et de la corporéité à l'Île de La Réunion
2016
A psychotherapeutic approach of psychosomatic phenomena and embodiment in Reunion Island Abstract The cultural foundations, the beliefs and rites of a society influence the way an individual embodies psychological perceptions and psychical experiences of the body. Language enable the investigation of cultural linguistic specificities, deciphering and working-through of related commonly held beliefs or personal meanings of these mental contents. This article first exposes the common beliefs about the human body in a reunionnese patient's original religion. It examines then the role of the patient's cultural background in psychosomatic 2 manifestations in Reunion Island. The work on this case…
A1 ADENOSINE RECEPTOR MODULATION OF CONTRACTILITY IN MOUSE DUODENUM LONGITUDINAL MUSCLE.
2010
Experimental evidence suggests that adenosine is involved in the regulation of gastrointestinal functions. In the present study we examined the influence of adenosine on the contractile activity of mouse duodenum longitudinal muscle. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction revealed the expression of all the adenosine receptors in whole thickness duodenum, being the A2B receptors expressed only in the neuromuscular layer. Mechanical activity of longitudinally oriented duodenal segments was recorded in vitro as changes in isometric tension. Adenosine produced concentration-dependent relaxation, markedly reduced by DPCPX, A1 receptor antagonist, but unaffected by DMPX or MRS 1220, A2 a…

Brenneria quercina and Serratia spp. isolated from Spanish oak trees Molecular characterization and development of PCR primers
2008
Brenneria quercina has been reported as one of the causal agents of oak decline in Spain. To investigate the bacterial variability of this pathogen from different Spanish oak forests, a collection of 38 bacterial isolates from seven geographic locations and from different oak species was analysed by sequencing 16S rDNA and rep-PCR fingerprinting. All Spanish isolates of B. quercina were grouped by rep-PCR into a homogenous cluster that differed significantly from B. quercina reference strains from California. 16S rDNA analysis revealed that 34 out of 38 isolates were Brenneria. However, four isolates belonged to the genus Serratia, suggesting that this bacterium could cause cankers in oak t…
