Apoptosis in sea urchin embryos.
1997
Abstract It is demonstrated by DNA electrophoresis analysis, morphological observations and TdT in situ reaction, that Paracentrotus embryos if treated with TPA plus heat undergo an apoptotic reaction. Indication is also obtained that non treated embryos undergo spontaneous apoptosis at the early pluteus stage, expecially in the districts of arms and intestine. The possible meaning of this latter observation is discussed.
Beneficial Effect of Two Culture Systems with Small Groups of Embryos on the Development and Quality of In Vitro-Produced Bovine Embryos
2014
Summary Currently, in vitro-produced embryos derived by ovum pick up (OPU) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) technologies represent approximately one-third of the embryos worldwide in cattle. Nevertheless, the culture of small groups of embryos from an individual egg donor is an issue that OPU-IVF laboratories have to face. In this work, we tested whether the development and quality of the preimplantation embryos in vitro cultured in low numbers (five embryos) could be improved by the addition of epidermal growth factor, insulin, transferrin and selenium (EGF-ITS) or by the WOW system. With this aim, immature oocytes recovered from slaughtered heifers were in vitro matured and in vitro ferti…

Filosofi e animali in Roma antica. Modelli di animalità e umanità in Lucrezio e Seneca
2012
Nel dibattito della nostra epoca la presenza degli animali, e l'insieme dei problemi connessi alla relazione uomo-animale, sembrano sempre più acquisire un ruolo di primo piano. Ciò vale in egual misura per le scienze naturali e le discipline umanistiche, per la biologia evolutiva come per la filosofia morale. Soprattutto, appare sempre più consistente il peso degli interrogativi etici - bioetici - impliciti nelle questioni zooantropologiche. Questo volume intende riprendere in considerazione l'opera di due fra i più importanti pensatori della cultura romana, l'epicureo Lucrezio e lo stoico Seneca, al fine di ripercorrere attraverso sondaggi selettivi l'ampio dibattito sviluppatosi a Roma, …
Analiza porównawcza wybranych frazeologizmów animalistycznych w trzech językach słowiańskich i w dwóch germańskich
2016
In the contemporary civilization, our world and that of animals merge more and more extensively, and so they are becoming increasingly dependent on each other. On the one hand, human beings - having considered themselves lords of the world - try hard to be as humane as they can towards animals, but on the other - they treat them utterly instrumentally, which is widely reflected, among others, in our languages. This particular observation has served as a basis for the present article. The article - after a concise conceptual part - presents selected fragments (about 40%) of the results of the empirical linguistic research which the author has performed in order to study qualitatively and qua…

Sacrificio in regime mediatico. Dal fatto al senso, e ritorno
2019
Today we live in a society and in a historical moment that is losing the sense of sacrifice, that is the pertinent interweavings that bind - with respect to the theme of the meat diet and the preliminary killing of the animal for food - man and animals, man and other men through the animal, the animal with other animals through man, not without the necessary inclusion of the cultural context, on the one hand, and divinity and the sacred, on the other. If meaning is given - according to the dictate of semiotics - in the networks of relations that compose it (where - according to the structuralist dictate - relations are primary and related elements secondary), the loss of the sense of sacrif…
Animismi animali
2023
Poco tempo fa, a un pranzo domenicale, conversavo con una signora di mezz’età sulle vacanze estive appena trascorse. «Lasciamo perdere», mi dice, «oramai sono diventata la nonna dei cani». La signora mi spiega che i suoi due figli, precari, convivono con le rispettive fidanzate, ma non osano far figli sicché hanno preso, ognuno, una coppia di canòni, di non so quale pregiatissima razza, che amano alla follia e che durante le ferie e i sabato sera vengono, manco a dirlo, depositati a casa dei genitori, cioè della mia dirimpettaia di tavola, che ama immensamente i suoi ragazzi e tutto ciò che essi emanano, al punto da sacrificare le proprie meritate vacanze per accudire quei quadrupedi decisa…
Il discorso animale
2019
For semiotics, the question of the talking animal is evidence but, in other ways, it is something unthought of, a theme that still needs to be worked on and discussed in view of new models of reflection and analysis. It is an evidence because talking animals are the norm in fairy tales, in legends, myths, fiction and so on: all material that, adequately analysed, has led to the theory of narrativity, where a non-human actor can play even very complex attitudinal roles. Even very complex ones. However, this is also something unthought of because, after all, narrative grammar, in its interplay between actors and actants, has in some way humanised animals, situating itself within an epistemolo…
