Transmigración del canino inferior incluido: Presentación de un caso y revisión de la literatura
2006
La retención, es decir, la no erupción de un diente permanente más allá de un año después de la edad normal de erupción, es relativamente poco frecuente si exceptuamos el caso de los terceros molares y los caninos superiores. La transmigración se define como el fenómeno en el cual un diente incluido no erupcionado traspasa en más de la mitad de su longitud la línea media. Exponemos el caso clínico de una paciente de 20 años de edad, que presentaba la transmigración del canino inferior izquierdo, con un patrón de migración tipo 4 de Mupparapu. De igual forma, realizamos una revisión bibliográfica de los casos publicados de transmigración, actualizando los principales aspectos de esta patolog…
Indonesian domestic workers in Singapore: strategies for increasing income and building up savings
2014
The following essay studies the strategies and practices applied by Indonesian domestic workers in Singapore in order to accumulate money. This is done by presenting the background situation, especially regarding female labor migration from Indonesia to other countries, and examining the specific income conditions experienced by domestic workers in Singapore. The particular focus of this essay is on gaining a deeper understanding of how the women act within a restrictive framework, i.e. identifying their legal and illegal strategies for increasing their regular income and their “negative” income strategies and transnational strategies for building up savings.
Hemocyte migration during inflammatory-like reaction of Ciona intestinalis (Tunicata, ascidiacea).
2000
Following an injuring factor such as the injection of erythrocytes into the tunic of Ciona intestinalis, an inflammatory-like response occurs and blood cells are massively involved in these mechanisms. Electron microscope observations illustrate the infiltration and migration of blood cells throughout the mantle epithelium into the tunic and show several prominent morphological changes.
Imidazo[2,1-b] [1,3,4]thiadiazoles with antiproliferative activity against primary and gemcitabine-resistant pancreatic cancer cells
2020
A new series of eighteen imidazo [2,1-b] [1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives was efficiently synthesized and screened for antiproliferative activity against the National Cancer Institute (NCI-60) cell lines panel. Two out of eighteen derivatives, compounds 12a and 12h, showed remarkably cytotoxic activity with the half maximal inhibitory concentration values (IC50) ranging from 0.23 to 11.4 μM, and 0.29–12.2 μM, respectively. However, two additional compounds, 12b and 13g, displayed remarkable in vitro antiproliferative activity against pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell lines, including immortalized (SUIT-2, Capan-1, Panc-1), primary (PDAC-3) and gemcitabine-resistant (Panc-1R), elici…
Perlecan Maintains microvessel integrity in vivo and modulates their formation in vitro
2012
Perlecan is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan assembled into the vascular basement membranes (BMs) during vasculogenesis. In the present study we have investigated vessel formation in mice, teratomas and embryoid bodies (EBs) in the absence of perlecan. We found that perlecan was dispensable for blood vessel formation and maturation until embryonic day (E) 12.5. At later stages of development 40% of mutant embryos showed dilated microvessels in brain and skin, which ruptured and led to severe bleedings. Surprisingly, teratomas derived from perlecan-null ES cells showed efficient contribution of perlecan-deficient endothelial cells to an apparently normal tumor vasculature. However, in perlecan…
Nei luoghi dell'accoglienza. Progetti per Lampedusa e Palermo
2014
Il libro raccoglie gli esiti della ricerca e della didattica dei Laboratori di Progettazione architettonica del terzo anno, svolti presso il corso di Laurea Magistrale in Architettura LM4 della Scuola Politecnica dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo, sul tema dell’accoglienza a Lampedusa e a Palermo. L’obiettivo è quello di presentare la composita esperienza di progetto e di ricerca prodotta intorno all’argomento e nello stesso tempo attivare un confronto sul paesaggio e sugli spazi urbani della città. Il libro cerca di sviluppare un percorso di ricognizione e di conoscenza attraverso l’elaborazione di progetti didattici in grado di produrre idee per la città e il territorio. The book con…
Motivations and domain specificity in intercultural adaptation : bloggers' experiences in their new host countries
2014
The current qualitative study investigates immigrant’s intrinsic (internal) and extrinsic (external) motivations and how they surface in the intercultural adaption process. Additionally, it aims to answer whether immigrant’s adaptation orientations differ between private and public (life) domains by testing Boski’s (2008) IAFS model [the model of integration as functional(partial) specialization]. It is a fairly recent model of adaptation and only few prior studies have utilized it. The study concentrates on voluntary migrants, individuals, who have made a personal choice to leave their homelands. In the current study naturally occurring data in a form of weblogs were utilized as research d…
Mobilités internationales des diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur français en phase d'insertion professionnelle : effets sur leurs débuts de carrièr…
2008
International mobility by French higher education graduates on entering the labour market: is it worth it once they return home?The construction of European graduate labour market, through increased international graduate mobility, cannot take place without it appearing beneficial forgraduates. Indeed, all types of mobility have a cost, even if the latter is not always financial (leaving family, adapting to a new environment, etc.). Moreover, we can wonder whether graduates employment prospects actually improve thanks to international mobility. Using the Céreq « Génération 98 » survey, our first results show that international mobility on entering the labour market appears to be rare. Final…
