UV-B exposure causes DNA damage and changes in protein expression in northern pike (Esox lucius) posthatched embryos.
2012
The ongoing anthropogenically caused ozone depletion and climate change has increased the amount of biologically harmful UV-B radiation, which is detrimental to fish in embryonal stages. The effects of UV-B radiation on the levels and locations of DNA damage manifested as cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs), heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and p53 protein in newly hatched embryos of pike were examined. Pike larvae were exposed in the laboratory to current and enhanced doses of UV-B radiation. UV-B exposure caused the formation of CPDs in a fluence rate-dependent manner, and the CPDs were found deeper in the tissues with increasing fluence rates. UV-B radiation induced HSP70 in epidermis, and…
Digital control circuitry for the p53 dynamics in cancer cell and apoptosis
2010
Abstract Experimental work and theoretical models deduce a “digital” response of the p53 transcription factor when genomic integrity is damaged. The mutual influence of p53 and its antagonist, the Mdm2 oncogene, is closed in a feedback. This paper proposes an aerospace-based architecture for translating the p53/Mdm2/DNA damage network into a digital circuitry in which the optimal control theory is applied for obtaining the requested dynamic evolutions of some considered cell species for repairing a DNA damage. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of such digital circuitry design to detect and predict the cell species dynamics for shedding light on their inner and mutua…
Herbicidal activity of phosphonic, phosphinic, and phosphonous acid analogues of phenylglycine and phenylalanine
1995
A series of phosphonic, phosphinic, and phosphonous acid analogues of phenylglycine and phenylalanine was synthesized and tested as herbicides against Lepidium sativum and Cucumis sativus. Aminobenzylphosphonic acids exhibited notable herbicidal activity and thus represent a group of the most active herbicides found among aminophosphonic acids.

BEM analysis of a piezoelectric structural health monitoring system for delamination detection
2013
In the present work a piezoelectric based structural health monitoring (SHM) system is analyzed with the aim of assessing the ability of the piezoelectric patch to detect both edge and embedded delaminations proper of flange-skin composite laminated structures. he boundary element model is developed for piezoelectric solids and is implemented by taking advantage of the multidomain technique to model laminated and cracked configurations. A non-linear spring model interface is then implemented in conjunction with an iterative procedure allowing for the simulation of the finite stiffness of the bonding layers as well as of the non-penetration condition of the delamination surfaces. he dynamic …

Mechanizm neuroplastyczności i jego znaczenie dla psychoterapii oraz oceny jej skuteczności
2016
The paper introduces the mechanism of neuroplasticity, specifically the ability of the brain to develop new neurons (neurogenesis) and new connections between nerve cells (synaptogenesis) and to develop glial cells. The author presents the evidence proving the existence of neuroplasticity by giving examples of people with serious brain damage who function normally and, above all, of people living with almost no brain or with one hemisphere, or with post-stroke defects. However, the main purpose of this paper is to present the current state of knowledge of the importance of the brain plasticity for the course of psychotherapy, as well as for assessing its effectiveness. The author gives many…
LA CLASS ACTION E LA FUNZIONE DI DETERRENZA DEGLI ILLECITI CIVILI IN PROSPETTIVA COMPARATISTICA
2011
La ricerca affronta l'esame dell'istituto della class action o azione collettiva risarcitoria da tempo esistente nel sistema americano e di recente recepito nell'ordinamento italiano, attraverso la L.23 luglio 2009 n.99, che ha modificato la pregressa disciplina di cui all'art.2 comma 446 della L. 24 dicembre 2007 n.244 (finanziaria 2008), sia pur con alcune rilevanti differenze rispetto al sistema americano che ne riducono le potenzialità applicative (si consideri, ad es., la scelta italiana del sistema di opt-in piuttosto che del sistema di opt-out). Accanto alla class action - per l'analoga funzione di deterrenza - si esaminano i c.d. punitive damages o danni punitivi, per lungo tempo di…
Brevi note su alcune esperienze di trapianti giuridici in Europa
2016
The research aims to explain and illustrate the legal transplants theory, created by the well-known Scottish jurist Alan Watson, and tries to discover the foundation of its legitimacy in relation with some common law rules. In fact some relevant private law rules, which have been transplanted in more legal systems, will be examined so to underline the different impact of the same rule in different contexts for the deep influence of social, cultural and political factors on the legal principles. Specifically the different impact on legal systems of a particular civil action, the class action, born in Usa and circulated both in civil and in common law countries, will be examined. In the same …
