Biodiverse green roofs in Mediterranean climate. Input and lessons learned from Germany and Switzerland
In the realm of the doctoral program in technologies for sustainability and land restoration, this thesis deepens sustainable and ecological solutions for Mediterranean environment after the German tradition and the Swiss school of green roofs for biodiversity. Specific aims were to: (1) assess the effectiveness of the existing green roofs norms in supporting biodiversity; (2) review methodologies and approaches for the implementation of biodiverse green roofs but also their application for ecological design; (3) identify habitat templates in the Mediterranean ecoregion replicable on green roofs; and (4) investigate the long term vegetation development of unmanaged green roofs in order to g…
Suomalaisuuden ja toiseuden rajamailla : eksotisointi Gallen-Kallelan Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistoriassa
2020
Museoilla on ollut historiallisesti keskeinen rooli kansallisuuden ja kansallisen kuvaston tuottajina ja kulttuuriperinnön ylläpitäjinä. Osana kansallisen identiteetin rakentamisprojektia museot ovat osallistuneet myös eksotisoivan kuvaston ja toiseuden tuottamiseen ja toiminnallaan vahvistaneet kolonialistisia erontekoja. Tässä artikkelissa otamme erityiseen tarkasteluun Gallen-Kallela Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistorian ja pohdimme, miten museo on kokoelmaa esittäessään osallistunut kolonialistisen kuvaston tuottamiseen ja uudelleen tulkitsemiseen. Tutkimuksessa esiin nostamamme näyttelyt jakautuvat neljälle vuosikymmenelle (vuosille 1972, 1987, 1993, 2003). Aineistonamme on kirjal…

SICILIAN MANGO PEEL INDUCES CELLULAR STRESS ACCOMPANIED TO MITOCHONDRIAL DYSFUNCTION IN COLON CANCER CELLS
2021
Currently, cellular stresses as the oxidative, metabolic and genotoxic stress are considered the cause of many different human pathologies as neurodegenerative diseases (e.g.,Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), alcoholic liver disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and also cancer. Although the role of cellular stress has been largely debated in cancer, nowadays some therapies aim to target the intracellular pro-oxidant/anti-oxidant balance triggering the tumor commitment to cell death. Therefore, it has become more necessary an improved understanding of cancer response to cellular stress that could be advantageous to develop cancer tailored therapies. In this…
THE HDAC INHIBITOR ITF2357 (GIVINOSTAT) AS A KEY PLAYER IN EPIGENETIC TARGETING OF MELANOMA AND COLON CANCER CELLS
2023
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) are epigenetic compounds that have been recently considered for their promising anti-tumor activity. The aim of this PhD thesis was to elucidate and characterize the anti-tumor effect of the HDAC inhibitor ITF2357 (Givinostat) in melanoma and colon cancer cells that are characterized by oncogenic BRAF mutations. Interestingly, data reported in this thesis demonstrate that ITF2357 exerts a remarkable anti-tumor effect in melanoma cells by inducing a switch from a pro-survival autophagy to caspase-dependent apoptosis. The thesis provides the first evidences that ITF2357 is able to target oncogenic BRAF and oncogenic p53. The ITF2357 decreasing effect on…

"The Dutch Legacy in the Indonesian Parliament"
2013
th century; Parliamentary procedure Abstract The Indonesian parliament, the DPR, today presents its similar characteristics as the Dutch parliament in the 19 th century. The historical trajectories show that when establishing the core of the parliament institution, the founding fathers copied what the colonial government had been practiced, and maintained during the authoritarian regime in Indonesia, accordingly the Dutch legacy lingered. Consequently, in the wave of democratic era, after the fall of the authoritarian president, the same institution should have adapted itself into a more democratic institution, but remained weak due to its outdated characteristics. This paper shows the hist…
Colonizzazione pneumococcica in bambini in eta' scolare e possibile trasmissione intrafamiliare: l'esperienza dello studio "BINOCOLO" in Sicilia.
2016
INTRODUZIONE La colonizzazione orofaringea da pneumococco interessa il 90% dei bambini nel primo anno di vita ed i contatti familiari possono giocare un ruolo cruciale nella stessa. Per analizzare i fattori associati alla colonizzazione da pneumococco e alla possibile trasmissione intra-familiare, è stato realizzato il progetto BINOCOLO: "Bambini Insieme ai NOnni COntro LO Pneumococco" su una popolazione studentesca e relativi familiari co- residenti. METODI Per l'arruolamento dei partecipanti allo studio, sono state identificate due scuole primarie del Comune di Palermo. Per ogni soggetto reclutato, un questionario e un tampone orofaringeo sono stati raccolti attraverso un team opportuname…
La politique coloniale de la IIe République : un assimilationnisme modéré
1998
The colonial policy of the second Republic demonstrate a moderate assimilationist policy. The ideas of Victor Schoelcher are influential, but not entirely adopted. Indeed, Schoelcher fought for the application of common law to the colonies. Although the emancipated slaves of the four old colonies are under the rule of juridical assimilation, the specific status of the natives remains unchanged. The constitution of 1848 institutes a représentation of the colonies before the National Assembly, proclaims the unity and indivisibility of the Republic and the sovereignty of France over its colonies. However, it adopts the principle of specific legislation for the later.
Contradictions of Gender and ‘Imaginative’ Representations of a (Post-)colonial Nation. E. Brodber’s Myal, A. Roy’s The God of Small Things and B. Ev…
2006
The article illustrates the ways in which the productive theoretical conflation of feminist critique and (post)colonial studies makes it possible to demonstrate that the implications of the category of gender and 'race' allow Erna Brodber's Myal (1988), Bernardine Evaristo's Lara (1997) and Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things (1997) to contribute to imaginatively reshaping the postcolonial nation.
