IL BENE DELLA DIGNITÀ UMANA IN SOCCORSO DELLA LEGGE MERLIN? : SULLA SENTENZA 141/2019 DELLA CORTE COSTITUZIONALE IN MATERIA DI FAVOREGGIAMENTO E RECL…
2019
Con la sentenza 141/2019 la Corte costituzionale ha dichiarato non fondata la questione di legittimità costituzionale dei reati di “reclutamento” e di “favoreggiamento” della prostituzione, proposta dalla Corte d’Appello di Bari. A partire dalla vicenda oggetto di giudizio, e dopo una preliminare indagine sui modelli di regolamentazione normativa della prostituzione volontaria e sui dubbi di legittimità costituzionale espressi dalla ordinanza di remissione, ci si sofferma su taluni aspetti critici della decisione. Nella prospettiva dell’Autore, la scelta di prostituirsi ha una inscindibile doppia natura (sessuale ed economica) e dunque una plurima copertura costituzionale; discutibili sono …
Neurofibromatosis type 2 tumor suppressor protein is expressed in oligodendrocytes and regulates cell proliferation and process formation.
2017
The neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) tumor suppressor protein Merlin functions as a negative regulator of cell growth and actin dynamics in different cell types amongst which Schwann cells have been extensively studied. In contrast, the presence and the role of Merlin in oligodendrocytes, the myelin forming cells within the CNS, have not been elucidated. In this work, we demonstrate that Merlin immunoreactivity was broadly distributed in the white matter throughout the central nervous system. Following Merlin expression during development in the cerebellum, Merlin could be detected in the cerebellar white matter tract at early postnatal stages as shown by its co-localization with Olig2-positi…
"Quels beste ce pooit estre" : Merlin et le bestiaire dans trois Suites du Merlin en prose : d'une poétique du personnage à une poétique du roman
2016
One of the most eminent figures of Arthurian literature, renowned in the Middle Ages as in later periods, Merlin remains however a polymorphous and contradictory character. A study focusing on two aspects will allow us to perceive his ambiguities and to form the poetics of the character. Firstly, from a relational perspective, the bestiary, that is to say the literary fauna, constitutes an element of this definition. In Prose Merlin’s retrospective prose sequels (the “Vulgate” Suite, the “Post-Vulgate” Suite and the Livre d’Artus), romances which constitute the apex of thirteenth century Arthurian texts in prose, this relation axis encounters an intertextual perspective. By its extent and i…
Cluster of differentiation 44 promotes osteosarcoma progression in mice lacking the tumor suppressor Merlin.
2019
Merlin is a versatile tumor suppressor protein encoded by the NF2 gene. Several lines of evidence suggest that Merlin exerts its tumor suppressor activity, at least in part, by forming an inhibitory complex with cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44). Consistently, numerous NF2 mutations in cancer patients are predicted to perturb the interaction of Merlin with CD44. We hypothesized that disruption of the Merlin-CD44 complex through loss of Merlin, unleashes putative tumor- or metastasis-promoting functions of CD44. To evaluate the relevance of the Merlin-CD44 interaction in vivo, we compared tumor growth and progression in Cd44-positive and Cd44-negative Nf2-mutant mice. Heterozygous Nf2-mut…
Monitoring of the prompt radio emission from the unusual supernova 2004dj in NGC2403
2005
Supernova 2004dj in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC2403 was detected optically in July 2004. Peaking at a magnitude of 11.2, this is the brightest supernova detected for several years. Here we present Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) observations of this source, made over a four month period, which give a position of R.A. = 07h37m17.044s, Dec =+65deg35'57.84" (J2000.0). We also present a well-sampled 5 GHz light curve covering the period from 5 August to 2 December 2004. With the exception of the unusual and very close SN 1987A, these observations represent the first detailed radio light curve for the prompt emission from a Type II-P supernova.
Prostituzione. Aporie e tabù di un nuovo diritto penale tutorio
2018
Molteplici sono le forme attraverso le quali la prostituzione può essere esercitata e plurimi sono i suoi modelli normativi di regolamentazione: tradizionalmente, si contendono il campo il proibizionismo, il regolamentarismo e l’abolizionismo; più di recente la c.d. decriminalizzazione e il c.d. neo-proibizionismo. In questo volume, dopo una breve disamina delle possibili forme e dei plurimi significati della prostituzione, ci si sofferma preliminarmente su alcuni ordinamenti-tipo che presentano caratteristiche peculiari ora dell’uno ora dell’altro dei modelli normativi attuabili, tenendo conto anche di recenti e significative sentenze di talune Corti supreme in ordinamenti di tipo abolizio…
