Newest Results on the Chemistry and Pharmacology of TCM Drugs Containing Triterpene and Steroid Saponins

2012

The aim of this review is to provide newest results in the chemistry, pharmacology, and clinical studies of saponins-containing TCM drugs, some of them being listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. It appears that literature on triterpene saponins is more abundant than that of steroid saponins, and ginseng occupies a prominent position in the list. However, other TCM drugs are well documented in recent years belonging to the genera Astragalus, Gynostemma, Bupleurum, Clematis, Dipsacus, Platycodon, Gypsophila, Anemarrhena, Lonicera, Paris, Dioscerea, Tribulus, and Ophiopogon. From a Pharmacological point of view, the most relevant results have been obtained with the cancer-related activity and …

Intenzionalità collettiva, ontologia sociale e mindreading

2014

In his Collective Intentions and Actions John Searle argued that having a preintentional sense of others as at least potentially cooperative agents “like me” is a necessary condition of collective intentionality. He also argued, in Rationality in Action, that understanding others qua intentional agents necessarily presupposes rationality because rational constraints are built into the logical structure of intentional phenomena. In this paper we will try to specify further these claims in the light of current debate on mindreading, where other-understanding is spelled out either in terms of automatic, subpersonal simulative mechanisms, or in terms of normative, rational principles. We will a…

Increasing the levels of 2-phenylethyl acetate in wine through the use of a mixed culture of Hanseniaspora osmophila and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

2009

The impact of mixed cultures of Hanseniaspora osmophila and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with different initial yeast ratios on wine composition has been examined. The mixed culture significantly affected sugar consumption, the main enological parameters and ester concentrations, with the exception of glycerol, isoamyl acetate and diethyl succinate levels. Remarkably, in wines obtained with mixed cultures the concentration of 2-phenylethyl acetate was approximately 3- to 9-fold greater than that produced by S. cerevisiae pure culture. Moreover sensory evaluation revealed a stronger fruity character in wines fermented with mixed cultures than in control wines. Independently of the mixed culture …

The Mona Lisa effect: Testing the limits of perceptual robustness vis-à-vis slanted images

2014

We report three experiments that test the limits of the Mona Lisa effect. The gaze of a portrait that is looking at us appears to follow us around as we move with respect to the picture. Even if our position is shifted considerably to the side, or if the picture is severely slanted, do we feel the gaze to be directed at us? We determined the threshold where this effect breaks down to be maximally 70? of picture slant relative to the observer. Different factors modulate this remarkable robustness, among them being the display medium and the nature of the picture. The threshold was considerably lower when the picture was mounted on a physical surface as opposed to a computer simulation of sla…

A multi-phase multi-objective genome-scale model shows diverse redox balance strategies in yeasts

2021

Yeasts constitute over 1500 species with great potential for biotechnology. Still, the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiaedominates industrial applications and many alternative physiological capabilities of lesser-known yeasts are not being fully exploited. While comparative genomics receives substantial attention, little is known about yeasts’ metabolic specificity in batch cultures. Here we propose a multi-phase multi-objective dynamic genome-scale model of yeast batch cultures that describes the uptake of carbon and nitrogen sources and the production of primary and secondary metabolites. The model integrates a specific metabolic reconstruction, based on the consensus Yeast8, and a kinetic mod…

Bajarse al moro en modo travelling. Hacia una caracterización interdiscursiva de la competencia comunicativa audiovisual

2018

Las últimas aportaciones en el desarrollo teórico de la competencia comunicativa audiovisual destacan la idoneidad de diseñar secuencias de enseñanza-aprendizaje en las que se propicie un enfoque metodológico basado en el contraste entre diferentes versiones de una misma producción artística. Partiendo, pues, de estas premisas teóricas, este estudio pretende contribuir al desarrollo de la competencia comunicativa audiovisual mediante el diseño de una secuencia didáctica sobre la obra teatral Bajarse al moro. Con ello se persigue ofrecer un camino metodológico singular en el marco de las enseñanzas medias y universitarias. The design of didactic sequences in which it promotes a methological …
