Allelic variants of IL1R1 gene associate with severe hand osteoarthritis

2010

Background. In search for genes predisposing to osteoarthritis (OA), several genome wide scans have provided evidence for linkage on 2q. In this study we targeted a 470 kb region on 2q11.2 presenting the locus with most evidence for linkage to severe OA of distal interphalangeal joints (DIP) in our genome wide scan families. Methods. We genotyped 32 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this 470 kb region comprising six genes belonging to the interleukin 1 superfamily and monitored for association with individual SNPs and SNP haplotypes among severe familial hand OA cases (material extended from our previous linkage study; n = 134), unrelated end-stage bilateral primary knee OA cases (n…

Incompiute città di Palermo

2019

Con l’ultimo numero 23-24, interamente dedicato alla città di Palermo, la rivista “Architettura Civile” pone al centro dell’attenzione la questione della città contemporanea e delle sue molteplici declinazioni architettoniche, con un atteggiamento che, non senza disincanto, riconsidera lo studio e la riflessione sulla città e sulle sue condizioni attuali come fondamento del progetto di architettura. In questo caso Palermo, “città mitica e mitizzata” e al contempo “stereotipo di processi di incontrollata urbanizzazione” rappresenta un caso esemplare; nel tema delle Incompiute idee di città possibili si rende infatti riconoscibile il paradigma connotativo dello stesso divenire di Palermo, lun…

Exploring long chain n-alkane metabolism in Gordonia sp. strain SoCg

2009

Many microorganisms are able to degrade aliphatic hydrocarbons and a relationship between n-alkane utilization and storage compound synthesis has been described in bacteria. The Gram positive GC-rich n-alkane degrader Gordonia sp. strain SoCg, isolated from a long-term accidentally contaminated beach in Sicily, is able to grow on long n-alkanes up to. It carries a single copy of the alkane hydroxylase gene alkB on its chromosome and its alk cluster revealed a genomic organization similar to other alk clusters of alkane-degrading Gram positive bacteria. The alk gene expression, analysed by Real-time RT-PCR, is induced by n-hexadecane and n-triacontane and coupled to alkane consumption. Inter…
