Palaeohistology and palaeopathology of an Aeolosaurini (Sauropoda: Titanosauria) from Morro do Cambambe (Upper Cretaceous, Brazil)
2021
A recent publication of fossil bones of titanosaurs assigned to Aeolosaurini from the Morro do Cambambe site (Mato Grosso state, Brazil, Upper Cretaceous) reported anomalous growth in some of them. Here, we present osteohistological sections of elements to understand not only the microstructure and growth of such bones, but also the nature of those anomalies. Among them, we selected one cervical and one mediumposterior dorsal rib, and a haemal arch. The primary bone of all specimens consisted of a variation of the fibrolamellar complex, with the inner cortex being rich in woven bone with dispersed longitudinal canals, while the outer cortex was parallel-fibred with rows of longitudinal cana…
Predominant pathogenic role of tumor necrosis factor in experimental colitis in mice
1997
Antibodies to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha have been recently proposed as effective treatment for patients with Crohn's disease. Here, we analyze the functional role of TNF-alpha in a mouse model of chronic intestinal inflammation induced by the hapten reagent 2,4,6,-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) that mimics some characteristics of Crohn's disease in humans. Macrophage-enriched lamina propria (LP) mononuclear cells from mice with TNBS-induced colitis produced 10-30-fold higher levels of TNF-alpha mRNA and protein than cells from control mice. When mice with chronic colitis were treated by intraperitoneal injection of antibodies to TNF-alpha, an improvement of both the clinical a…
Immunoreactivity of Roach,Rutilus rutilus,Following Laboratory Exposure to Bleached Pulp and Paper Mill Effluents
1998
Abstract In order to study immunomodulation, controlled laboratory experiments were carried out with roach ( Rutilus rutilus ) exposed to bleached kraft mill effluent (BKME) or spent bleach liquor (SBL) from two pulp and paper mills using elementary chlorine and chlorine dioxide for bleaching. The total number of immunoglobulin-secreting cells (ISC) and the number of specific antibody-secreting cells (ASC) were determined by ELISPOT assay. Exposure to BKME resulted in decreased numbers of ISC in the spleen. To study the capability of response against foreign antigens the fish were immunized with bovine γ-globulin. Exposure to BKME or SBL reduced antigen-specific ASC response in fish. Moreov…
Effect of pulp and paper mill effluent (BKME) on physiological parameters of roach (Rutilus rutilus) infected by the digenean Rhipidocotyle fennica.
2002
Physiological parameters were measured after experimental infection of roach (Rutilus rutilus L.) with Rhipidocotyle fennica Gibson, Valtonen et Taskinen, 1992 (Digenea) cercariae. The fish were caught from two lakes: a eutrophic bleached kraft mill effluent (BKME)-contaminated lake and an oligotrophic unpolluted lake. The intensity of infection was followed up to 10 days post infection (p.i.) and physiological parameters indicating non-specific stress responses and the condition of fish were examined simultaneously. The mean abundance, the number of parasites per fish, of R. fennica was significantly higher in the fish from the contaminated water during the first two days p.i., probably re…
Information systems for the conservation and fruition of cultura heritage. The church of Santa Trinità di Delia
2016
Lo studio descrive il processo di conoscenza avviato su uno degli esempi monumentali più rappresentativi dell’architettura normanna della prima metà del XII sec. in Sicilia: la chiesa della Trinità di Delia a Castelvetrano (TP). Le fasi del rilievo e della rappresentazione 3D degli elementi costruttivi e decorativi seguono un approccio parametrico costituendo un sistema informativo implementabile di supporto per successivi interventi di restauro conservativo della struttura. Il workflow è struturato in modo tale da impiegare tecnologie hardware / software low-cost, descrivendo metodiche procedurali di elaborazione dati trasferibili all’attività professionale. The study describes the knowled…
Parasite communities as indicators of recovery from pollution: parasites of roach (Rutilus rutilus) and perch (Perca fuviatilis) in central Finland.
2003
We compared parasite communities in fish taken from a polluted lake (L. Vatia) and two control lakes before (1986) and after (1995) nine years of markedly reduced chemical and nutrient loading from a pulpmill in central Finland. Discriminant analyses of the 1995 data, using a function based on the 1986 data, showed that the parasite communities in the fish from the two control lakes had changed relatively little, whereas those from L. Vatia had converged on those from the mesotrophic control lake, indicating substantial recovery from the effects of pollution. Only a few species of parasites provided evidence for recovery. These were anodontid glochidia, which had increased markedly in perch…
Gibellina, la città che visse due volte : terremoto e ricostruzione nella Valle del Belice
2019
Il passato di Gibellina Nuova non è Gibellina Vecchia. Le storie delle due città sono profondamente diverse: il terremoto del 1968, che colpì con un’intensità del IX grado della scala Mercalli la Valle del Belice, è stato additato come causa della loro soluzione di continuità, ma i veri fattori che hanno determinato una frattura nella continuità storica vanno ricercati nelle politiche di intervento e nelle utopie urbanistiche che hanno orientato la ricostruzione. Il dopo-terremoto del Belice è stato il banco di prova della Prima Repubblica di fronte alle calamità naturali; dal fallimento delle sperimentazioni urbanistiche operate in vivo nel tessuto sociale, dalla dicotomia tra ricostruzion…
Il piccolo nel grande, il grande nel piccolo. Gli adeguamenti liturgici di Culotta e Leone The small in the big, the big in the small. Culotta and Le…
2015
Una esplorazione degli adeguamenti liturgici di Pasquale Culotta e Giuseppe Leone conduce a comprendere in che modo la loro riflessione sulle architetture per il culto cristiano cattolico sia parte integrante della sperimentazione progettuale incentrata sul rapporto architettura-città. Nel saggio si specifica in cosa consista il lavoro di adeguamento rispetto alle indicazioni formulate nel Concilio Ecumenico Vaticano II (1963). Ci si sofferma sulle peculiarità della liturgia rinnovata: il valore "processionale" dello spazio ecclesiale e la relazione immanente-trascendente, a scala architettonica e urbana. In seguito si approfondiscono, "caso per caso", la riconfigurazione dell'ambone del Du…
The metabolism of phenol and substituted phenols in zebra fish.
1987
1. The metabolism of five phenols in zebra fish was studied after uptake from the medium. The results showed no qualitative differences to other Cyprinid fish species, only the oxidation rate seemed to be lower. 2. Phenyl glucuronide, phenyl sulphate, and quinol sulphate were identified as metabolites of phenol. 3. Identified metabolites of 2-cresol were 2-cresyl glucuronide, 2-cresyl sulphate, and 2-hydroxybenzoic acid in trace amounts. 4. Only the glucuronide and sulphate conjugates were detected as metabolites of 4-nitrophenol, 4-chlorophenol, and pentachlorophenol.
