Borgese, Jovine e Silone prefatori per il Touring Club Italiano
2014
Si mettono a sistema tre brevi testi di tipo etnogeografico con cui si sono cimentati Silone, Jovine e Borgese negli anni Trenta-Quaranta del Novecento, concettualizzando e testualizzando i caratteri più peculiari della propria regione di appartenenza. Prenderò in esame la prefazione che Borgese scrisse per Sicilia (Touring Club Italiano, 1933) e le due prefazioni che Silone e Jovine scrissero per Abruzzo e Molise, (Touring Club Italiano, 1948). Mi ripropongo di innestare le ragioni di questi testi nel dibattito sui processi di “orientalizzazione” del Mezzogiorno italiano, intendendo per orientalizzazione i percorsi culturali di tra- sformazione in categoria metastorica e stereotipata dell'…
Gli Studi Culturali in India. Il collettivo Subaltern Studies e il discorso postcoloniale da Said a Spivak
2012
Sull'origine e lo sviluppo del collettivo "Subaltern Studies" in India, sul ruolo fondamentale che ha giocato nella formazione degli Studi Culturali e Postcoloniali, e sulla sua diffusione transnazionale.
GASTROINTESTINAL COMPLICATIONS DURING USE OF ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS FOR ORTHOPEDIC DISEASES
2011
Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are molecules that inhibit the functionality of cyclooxygenase, resulting in suppression of prostaglandin production. Primary physicians and specialist clinics frequently prescribe NSAIDs for the treatment of osteoarticular diaseases such as tendinitis, bursitis, synovitis, spondylitis and osteoarthritis. This analysis aims to study gastrointestinal complications in orthopedic patients, caused by the use of NSAIDs, employng esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy.
Polybrominated methoxy diphenyl ethers (MeO-PBDEs) in fish and guillemot of Baltic, Atlantic and Arctic environments
2003
Arctic cod liver samples from Vestertana Fjord at the Arctic coast of Norway, salmon and guillemot samples from the Baltic Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, and salmon and lamprey larva samples from Kymijoki River in southern Finland were analysed for the occurrence of tri-, tetra- and pentabromomethoxy diphenyl ethers and their concentration levels were estimated. These compounds have previously been identified by other research groups in salmon, seal and dolphin samples. The aim of this study was to find out a possible temporal trend in the concentrations of these compounds in the cod liver samples from years 1987-1998 and to investigate the possible spatial differences in the concentrations in…
Nationalism and the Postcolonial: from Edward Said's "Orientalism" to Graham Huggan's "Postcolonial Exotic"
2019
As interest in the field of postcolonial studies has grown in recent decades, the theoretical issues with which it is concerned have been applied to an increasing number of areas. As a branch of literary theory, it has provided one of the most important critical platforms for modern theorists and writers who attempt to address issues of cultural identity. However, the analytical potential of postcolonial theory has not gone unnoticed in other academic disciplines. In particular, research into global economics and politics has recognised its relevance to an understanding of the balance of world order and its political dynamics. As was earlier suggested, historians have also demonstrated an i…

Hacer películas chilenas desde Francia: Marcela Said y Jairo Boisier
2018
International audience; La presentación de los proyectos ante fondos internacionales para conseguir financiación y la posterior gira por los festivales, de los que los primeros son a menudo emanación, constituyen pasos obligados para la mayoría de las películas que, fuera de los circuitos exclusivamente comerciales, buscan distribución y legitimación cultural más allá de sus fronteras nacionales. En este panorama globalizado cobran especial protagonismo los fondos de ayuda europeos. Nuestra contribución pretende seguir las líneas abiertas por investigadores pioneros (De Valck, Elsaesser, Falicov, Shaw) y estudiar las redes transnacionales en las que está inmerso el cine latinoamericano actu…
Potentiation of the antitumor effects of both selective cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors in human hepatic cancer cells by inhibition …
2007
The molecular mechanisms behind the anti-neoplastic effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are not completely understood and cannot be explained by the inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 alone. We previously reported that both the selective COX-1 inhibitor SC-560 and the selective COX-2 inhibitor CAY10404 exhibit anti-tumor effects in human hepatoma cells. NSAID inhibitors have many COX-independent actions and, among others, the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways are targets for NSAIDs. Here, we examined the role of MEK/ERK1/2 signaling in the anti-neoplastic effects of both selective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors in two human hepato…
Multiple actions of fenamates and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on GABAA receptors
2019
The nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) niflumic acid, a fenamate in structure, has many molecular targets, one of them being specific subtypes of the main inhibitory ligand-gated anion channel, the GABA(A) receptor. Here, we report on the effects of other fenamates and other classes of NSAIDs on brain picrotoxinin-sensitive GABA A receptors, using an autoradiographic assay with [S-35]TBPS as a ligand on mouse brain sections. We found that the other fenamates studied (flufenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, mefenamic acid and tolfenamic acid) affected the autoradiographic signal at low micromolar concentrations in a facilitatory-like allosteric fashion, i.e., without having affinity to …
