Description of the final instar of Trichomalopsis peregrina (Hymenoptera, Pteromalidae), with data and comments on the preimaginal stages
2007
The preimaginal stages of T. peregrina are described. The egg displays a sculptured chorion, which is found only on those deposited externally. The immature larvae are characterized by their peculiarities in (a) a setose ring on the thoracic and abdominal segments, (b) an anal notch and (c) size and the sensory structures of the head capsule. The final instar is described and illustrated. Morphological structures of diagnostic value are discussed. The most salient character shown by the mature larva of this species lies in the epistoma, which is complete. Resumen. Se describen las fases de huevo y larva de T. peregrina . El huevo, como es característico en los que se depositan externamente,…

De Una teoría de la justicia a El derecho de gentes: argumentos en contra de algunos contenidos doctrinales
2022
En esta contribución intentaremos demonstrar tres tesis. 1. La noción de estructura básica es principalmente una herramienta teórica (al igual de la idea de un mercado ideal) que mira a determinar lo que las prácticas redistributivas tácitamente asumen: su mantenimiento en el tiempo, la obligación de cada uno de cooperar según las normas establecidas, y la posibilidad de que haya sanciones para los que no cooperan, al fin de mantener relaciones de reciprocidad estables entre miembros libres e iguales de la estructura. 2. Las críticas de Beitz, Buchanan, Pogge, a las que han seguido muchas otras, se sustentan en una lectura parcial de la obra de Rawls. Una lectura que no considera el desarro…
Genome-wide association study identifies multiple susceptibility loci for diffuse large B cell lymphoma
2014
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoma subtype and is clinically aggressive. To identify genetic susceptibility loci for DLBCL, we conducted a meta-analysis of 3 new genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and 1 previous scan, totaling 3,857 cases and 7,666 controls of European ancestry, with additional genotyping of 9 promising SNPs in 1,359 cases and 4,557 controls. In our multi-stage analysis, five independent SNPs in four loci achieved genome-wide significance marked by rs116446171 at 6p25.3 (EXOC2; P = 2.33 × 10 '21), rs2523607 at 6p21.33 (HLA-B; P = 2.40 × 10 '10), rs79480871 at 2p23.3 (NCOA1; P = 4.23 × 10 '8) and two independent SNPs, rs13255292 and rs47336…
Diagnóstico de Metástasis Ováricas de un linfoma B diseminado mediante ecografía 3D
2018
RESUMEN La participación del aparato genitourinario en el contexto de la enfermedad hematológica maligna es bien conocida. No obstante, la afectación ovárica por linfomas es inusual, ya sea de novo o como manifestación tardía de linfoma diseminado. El objetivo de esta comunicación es exponer la aportación diagnóstica de la ecografía tridimensional (3D) en la detección de metástasis ováricas, cuando todavía algunas de las pruebas de imagen estándar como la tomografía computarizada (TAC) son normales. En este caso presentamos una paciente con linfoma B difuso de células grandes mediastínico de crecimiento rápido y diseminación precoz a aparato gastrointestinal y genitourinario. ABSTRACT Genit…
Some Notes on Andrapolis, the Royal City: Apocryphal Acts of Thomas 3
2021
The following paper aims to explore the meaning and significance of the so-called royal city Andrapolis (Ἀνδράπολις) within the context of the Apocryphal Acts of Thomas’ s narrative (chapter 3). The identification of this Indian toponym have attracted the attention of many scholars during the last century and nowadays again, as witness of the few reliable historical traces supposedly transmitted by the apocryphal. For doing so, after a short introduction, we deal with the allegedly historicity of the text; then, we focus on the issue related mainly to the different variants of the location depending on the Syriac and Greek versions of the Acts of Thomas, and propose a new interpretatio…
Humanism and criticism in T. S. Eliot and Carles Riba
2021
T. S. Eliot i Carles Riba són dos autors amb moltes similituds: tots dos van viure aproximadament durant la mateixa època (la primera meitat del segle XX), tots dos van destacar com a poetes i com a crítics, i tots dos van escriure sobre temes literaris semblants, com, per exemple, l’humanisme, i sobre diversos autors de la literatura europea, com Dante, Goethe i Baudelaire. Però les seves diferents circumstàncies biogràfiques i els diferents contextos literaris, socials i polítics van condicionar la seva concepció de l’humanisme i la seva interpretació d’alguns dels principals escriptors de la cultura occidental. L’objectiu d’aquest article és fer un exercici de literatura comparada per …
In the literature: February 2017
2017
The hallmark of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is the t(11;14)(q13,q32) translocation, which leads to the juxtaposition of CCDN1 to the IgH promoter locus, resulting in cyclin D1 overexpression. However, studies from transgenic mouse show that additional secondary genetic events are required for oncogenic transformation. Epigenetic dysregulation is an important mechanism of oncogenesis and tumour progression, but there are only few genome-wide studies of DNA methylome in MCL and mainly focused on promoter regions. In an elegant article published in Cancer Cell , Queiros et al 1 studied the genome-wide methylation profiles of 82 MCL cases using microarray containing approximately 450 000 CPG sit…
Mesenchymal stem cells display hepato-protective activity in lymphoma bearing xenografts.
2012
A disseminated model of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with prevalent liver metastasis was generated by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of EBV(+) B lymphoblastoid SKW6.4 in nude-SCID mice. The survival of SKW6.4 xenografts (median survival = 27 days) was significantly improved when hyaluronan scaffolds embedded with mesenchimal stem cells (MSC) were implanted in the abdominal area 4 days after SKW6.4 injection (median survival = 39.5 days). Mice implanted with MSC showed a significant improvement of hepatic functionality in lymphoma xenografts, as demonstrated by measurement of serum ALT/AST levels. Co-culture of MSC with lymphoma cells enhanced the release of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) by MSC…
Acid Dnase Activities In Peripheral, Mononuclear Blood Cells: A Possible Parameter To Detect Proliferating Cell Populations
1992
After electrophoresis in DNA -containing polyacrylamide gels, two acid DNase activities can be detected in peripheral, mononuclear cells of the human blood. One of these acid DNase activities correlates with cell proliferation; its isoelectrical point is at pI 7.4. By means of this DNase activity, a quantity of less than 1% leukemic cells can be detected. The increased acid DNase activity can indicate the proliferation of malignant cell populations and possibly the proliferation of cell populations during immunological reactions
