Prenatal thyroid hormones accelerate postnatal growth and telomere shortening in wild great tits

2021

AbstractEarly-life environment is known to affect later-life health and disease, which could be mediated by the early-life programming of telomere length, a key hallmark of ageing. According to thefetal programming of telomere biology hypothesis, variation in prenatal exposure to hormones is likely to influence telomere length. Yet the contribution of key metabolic hormones,i.e. thyroid hormones (THs), has been largely ignored. We recently showed that in contrast to predictions, exposure to elevated prenatal THs increased postnatal telomere length in wild collared flycatchers, but the generality of such effect, its underlying proximate mechanisms and consequences on survival have not been i…

Un significativo arresto della giurisprudenza di merito sull’opaco confine tra affitto d’azienda e locazione di immobile c.d. commerciale con pertine…

2022

Author analyzes an interesting decision concerning a traditional topic of business law: the recognition of the distinguishing features between a tenancy of a business unit, on the one hand, and a lease of immovable property for nonresidential use, having a productive purpose, on the other. The dispute concerns the judicial qualification of a contract between a company managing a shopping centre and a company operating therein. In particular, according to the case law of legitimacy, there is a lease of urban property for commercial use instead of a lease (of a business branch) pursuant to article 2562 of the Italian Civil Code, where there is no pre-existing business complex, consisting of i…

DETERMINAZIONE DELLE TENSIONI RESIDUE IN GIUNTI FSW A T MEDIANTE METODO DEL CUT-COMPLIANCE

2009

In questo lavoro è stato applicato il metodo del cut-compliance (CC) per la determinzazione delle tensioni residue in giunti friction stir welding (FSW) saldati con una forma T. È riconosciuto che il metodo del CC fornisce ottimi risultati per i giunti di testa la cui geometria è simile al provino CT per prove di fatica. In letteratura, tuttavia, non è presente alcuna applicazione di questo metodo a forme differenti da quelle del giunto di testa poiché non sono note le funzioni di peso e di forma per differenti geometrie. Per tale motivo, sono state effettuate delle simulazioni agli elementi finiti per stimare le funzioni di forma e di peso considerando la geometria dei giunti FSW saldati a…

GLOBAL ISSUES, WESTERN FOCI: BANAL OCCIDENTALISM IN A FINNISH NEWSPAPER

2016

‘The West’ is an imagined community par excellence with a plethora of connotations that often contradict each other. Although it is often not at all certain exactly what the West or things Western refer to, the concepts are used as if there was some distinct cultural reality corresponding to them. Like any other ethnic group, tribe, nation state, or even village, the West is both fantasy and real, a social construction and, to some extent, an observable social formation. The Western world exists because people believe in its unity and share the connotations but also for a more mundane—or banal— reason: because these are constantly expressed in text and speech. This article examines the news…

E-Sports y brecha de género: la percepción de las profesionales españolas

2019

The present paper aims to identify the causes of under-representation of women in E-sports. According to a genre perspective, interest in videogames at the amateur level is quite similar. However, in its professional level, female participation becomes very limited. The fact that physical effort is irrelevant (a requirement for ?traditional sports?) could be considered a variable that would negatively affect greater to equality in the conditions of access and participation of women in electronic sports. Against any predictions, the data on the presence of women are elocuent: few women, with much lower wages than men to remunerate same skills, and a general complaint by the female profession…

Recombinant nanocapsid for targeted theranostic delivery

2017

Developments in diagnostic and therapeutic delivery are trending towards molecular level targeting with nano-platforms. Targeted delivery reduces generalized distribution by localizing diagnostic and/or therapeutic (theranostic) molecules to an intended target site. The first section of this thesis proposes Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) nanocapsids as a vector to stabilize and target theranostic delivery. Derived from the capsid protein of HEV, a feco-orally transmitted virus, HEV-like particles self-assemble in to non-infectious, nanocapsids that can withstand harsh protease and pH conditions in the mucosal system. The flexible nanocapsid surface protrusion domain is amenable to substantial modi…

The (im)possible success of disadvantaged students. Reflections on education, migration and social change

2019

The paper focuses on the ?unexpected pathways? of successful students with an immigrant background: these biographical routes, that seems socially impossible, raise theoretical issues around the individual-society, actor-structure relationship. Disadvantaged students who succeed represent a sociological challenge in the attempt to understand atypical situations and to identify the institutional processes and the structural opportunities that facilitate them, reducing ethnic inequalities in education. This framework is the starting point of the Su.Per. project (Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on the collection of written autobiographies of 65 imm…

Rhizoctonia solani AG5 and Its Offspring – Morphology and Sensitivity to Fungicides

2022

The objective of these studies was to identify differences and similarities within the progeny of Rhizoctonia solani AG5, which arose from basidiospores produced by the maternal strain ID23. The following characteristics were analyzed: appearance of the mycelium (color, structure, zonation, and presence of sclerotia), growth rate (at 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C), fungicide sensitivity, and hyphal structure. The mycelial color of R. solani AG5 ranged from white/cream to light and dark brown. The structure of the mycelium may be compacted or flattened with visible zoning or fluffy with dark brown sclerotia on the colony surface. Homokaryons and heterokaryons derived from homokaryons were analyzed by…

Cuerpos de energía: Formas alternativas de ser-en-el-mundo

2020

Based on an ethnographic approach, this paper explores how members of a new age spiritual movement known as ?Llave Mariana? (LLM) build and experience their bodies. At the same time, it develops a thick description of their ritual practices and later it analyzes, delving fundamentally into the phenomenological perspective, how these members shape and transform their forms of self-perception, experience, and representation of others and the environment. Finally, it considers the implications these spiritual practices have in the search and consolidation of alternative ways of being-in-the-world
