Analysis of Subcellular Components by Fluorescent-Lectin Binding and Flow Cytometry
2003
Because of their extensive availability and the wide spectrum of carbohydrates that may be specifically bound, lectins have become essential reagents for detection and quantitation of glycoconjugates in solution and in cell surfaces, identification and separation of cells, and functional studies based on membrane properties (1,2).

The role of paraoxonase 1 (PON1) as an oxidation marker, in muscle improvement after increased beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) in blood, in patients with …
2020
Various studies have concluded that in multiple sclerosis (MS) metabolic changes related to energy alterations are generated at the mitochondrial level. These changes produce loss of muscle mass and lead to high levels of oxidative stress related to low levels of the enzyme Paraoxonase 1 (PON1). The ketone bodies, mainly beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), restore this energetic alteration by improving muscular activity. This pilot study was conducted over 4 months with 51 patients diagnosed with MS, randomly divided into: an intervention group that received an isocaloric diet of a Mediterranean origin supplemented with 60 ml of coconut oil; and a control group that received the same base diet but …
Comunicare con i bambini per promuovere la loro crescita la prospettiva intersoggettiva ed embodied
2020
L'articolo tratta della specificità della relazione adulto-bambino piccolo, soffermandosi sulla prospettiva intersoggettiva alla seconda persona e facendo riferimento alle ultime ricerche neuroscientifiche che confermano il ruolo fondamentale della comunicazione psico-corporea nell'apprendimento e nello sviluppo infantile e l’importanza delle emozioni e degli affetti. Riflette quindi sulla specificità dei percorsi formativi per gli educatori per l’infanzia che, in una tale prospettiva, dovrebbero intrecciare il piano personale e quello professionale centrandosi sull’esperienza e sulla riflessione e l’autoriflessione. In questo senso particolarmente efficaci si rivelano i linguaggi artistico…
Vitamin D Deficiency in Cushing’s Disease: Before and After Its Supplementation
2022
Background: The primary objective of the study was to assess serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] values in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD), compared to controls. The secondary objective was to assess the response to a load of 150,000 U of cholecalciferol. Methods: In 50 patients with active CD and 48 controls, we evaluated the anthropometric and biochemical parameters, including insulin sensitivity estimation by the homeostatic model of insulin resistance, Matsuda Index and oral disposition index at baseline and in patients with CD also after 6 weeks of cholecalciferol supplementation. Results: At baseline, patients with CD showed a higher frequency of hypovitaminosis deficiency (p = 0…
Giovanni Meo Zilio, pionero en los estudios lingüísticos sobre el espacio plural del Río de la Plata
2015
Dentro de su extensa bibliografía se destaca la riqueza y variedad de los trabajos de lingüística y dialectología que, desde 1955, Giovanni Meo Zilio (1923-2006) ha dedicado al área rioplatense, mostrando especial interés por los ámbitos del habla popular y de las lenguas en contacto, en particular, las modalidades del cocoliche y del lunfardo, a las cuales ha reservado estudios fundamentales, así como al lenguaje gauchesco, que estudió y tradujo al italiano.

Glucocorticoid excess and COVID-19 disease
2020
AbstractThe pandemic of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), a disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is causing high and rapid morbidity and mortality. Immune system response plays a crucial role in controlling and resolving the viral infection. Exogenous or endogenous glucocorticoid excess is characterized by increased susceptibility to infections, due to impairment of the innate and adaptive immune system. In addition, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and thromboembolism are conditions overrepresented in patients with hypercortisolism. Thus patients with chronic glucocorticoid (GC) excess may be at high risk of developing COVID-19 infection with a sever…

Marx y Engels y la división sexual del trabajo en la familia: ambigüedades, equívocos y vacíos teóricos
2018
Dada la importante influencia de Marx y Engels en el análisis de la estructura social, no sorprende el notable impacto de su obra en el estudio del papel de la mujer en la familia. Sin embargo, su herencia en este ámbito sociológico ha dado lugar a interpretaciones muy polarizadas. Este artículo quiere aportar algo de luz evidenciando las contradicciones del marxismo al estudiar el papel de la mujer en la familia. Para ello se comparan las contribuciones de Marx y Engels para calibrar posibles diferencias en las posturas de dos autores que en otros ámbitos han presentado un pensamiento muy homogéneo. Los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que, a pesar de su innegable influencia en el pen…
