I festeggiamenti per le incoronazioni a Palermo di Vittorio Amedeo II (1713) e Carlo III (1735): musica, spettacolo e cerimonia
2018
Le entrate e le rispettive incoronazioni a Palermo di Vittorio Amedeo II di Savoia e Carlo III di Borbone sono state analizzate sotto diversi punti di vista. Tuttavia gli aspetti musicali sono stati finora poco considerati, se non a margine di studi più generali sulla vita musicale palermitana. Il presente contributo è riservato in modo specifico alla cornice sonora dei due eventi, dimostrando come questa costituisse un elemento essenziale al funzionamento della festa e al soddisfacimento dei suoi scopi. Le descrizioni e le testimonianze iconografiche propongono spunti di indagine sulle modalità di esecuzione e sui rapporti con il contesto celebrativo, fornendo anche informazioni sulle occa…
DNA barcoding reveals different cestode helminth species in northern European marine and freshwater ringed seals
2021
Three subspecies of the ringed seal (Pusa hispida) are found in northeastern Europe: P. h. botnica in the Baltic Sea, P. h saimensis in Lake Saimaa in Finland, and P. h. ladogensis in Lake Ladoga in Russia. We investigated the poorly-known cestode helminth communities of these closely related but ecologically divergent subspecies using COI barcode data. Our results show that, while cestodes from the Baltic Sea represent Schistocephalus solidus, all worms from the two lakes are identified as Ligula intestinalis, a species that has previously not been reported from seals. The observed shift in cestode communities appears to be driven by differential availability of intermediate fish host spec…
The vegetation of a historic road system in the suburban area of Monte Pellegrino (Palermo, Sicily)
2020
Knowledge of the processes by which plants colonize old structures is a key element for nature-based design both in urban and suburban contexts. This paper analyses the natural vegetation on walls and in other microhabitats of the roadway structures of Monte Pellegrino (606 m a.s.l.) near Palermo (Sicily), built in the first half of the 1900s. The historical road has particular construction and architectural features, and its characteristics have been maintained to this day. The route, approximately 16 kilometers long, is well integrated within a site of high naturalistic value which has been designated as a Special Area of Conservation (ITA020014) of the Natura 2000 network, and it is also…
Changes of species specific cuticular hydrocarbon profiles in the cockroaches Nauphoeta cinerea and Leucophaea maderae reared in heterospecific groups
1997
0013-8703 (Print) 1570-7458 (Online); The cuticular hydrocarbon profiles of the cockroaches Nauphoeta cinerea and Leucophaea maderae are species-specific when maintained in homospecific rearings. When individuals were reared in mixed species colonies, they initially remained in homospecific groups under different shelters. However, after 14 days they formed one heterospecific group with cuticular profiles showing characteristics of both species. When individuals were returned in monospecific rearings, their cuticular hydrocarbon profiles returned to species-specific ones within 3 weeks.
Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (SYK) in the Progression of Peritoneal Fibrosis Through Activation of the TGF-β1/Smad3 Signaling Pathway.
2019
BACKGROUND Long-term exposure to hypertonic and high glucose in peritoneal dialysis fluid can result in peritoneal fibrosis. Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) has a role in inflammation and fibrosis. This study aimed to investigate the role of SYK in an in vivo rat model of peritoneal fibrosis and in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMCs) in vitro and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats (N=24) were randomized into the sham control group (N=6); the peritoneal fibrosis group (N=6) treated with intraperitoneal chlorhexidine digluconate; the SYK inhibitor group (N=6), treated with chlorhexidine digluconate and fostamatinib; and the TGF-s inhibitor grou…

Notes on the karyology, genetics and ecology of Genista sect. Voglera in Sicily
2012
To investigate the biosystematic and genetic relationships among Sicilian species of Genista sect. Voglera, four populations of three species, Genista aristata C. Presl, Genista cupanii Guss., and Genista madoniensis Raimondo, have been studied. Genista madoniensis is tetraploid, with a chromosome number of 2n = 48, as are the other two species. An isozyme study showed that G. madoniensis is taxonomically closer to G. aristata than to G. cupanii, the latter possessing four unique alleles. The results are discussed in the context of the ecological characteristics of each species.
Estudio sobre la cicatrización de la zona donante de injerto de piel parcial en pacientes quemados tras aplicación de plasma rico en plaquetas o plas…
2019
La técnica más empleada para la restauración de la barrera cutánea en los pacientes quemados es el injerto de piel autólogo de espesor parcial. Su obtención conlleva generar un área cruenta a nivel de otra localización cutánea del mismo paciente, conocida como zona donante. Esta área cura generalmente en un período de entre 7 y 14 días mediante un proceso de cicatrización dirigida. Cuando existen grandes defectos que requieren cobertura, como es el caso de los grandes quemados en los que la extensión de la quemadura limita la disponibilidad de área donante, pueden ser necesarias varias tomas de la misma zona. Por lo tanto, la opción terapéutica global en este tipo de pacientes va a depender…
