El papel del marco jurídico-institucional internacional en la reestructuración de los sistemas de innovación y la migración calificada internacional
2020
Partiendo de una visión crítica sobre el derecho y el derecho internacional, esta tesis analiza una doble problemática que reviste particular interés para comprender la dinámica del capitalismo contemporáneo: por un lado, la profunda reestructuración que experimentan los sistemas de innovación en la actualidad, tomando como referente el caso paradigmático de Silicon Valley y, por el otro, el nuevo dinamismo que en el curso de las tres últimas décadas experimenta la migración calificada y, particularmente, aquella que se despliega en dirección sur-norte. En el corazón del argumento subyace la hipótesis de que el marco jurídico-institucional internacional configurado por la Organización Mundi…

Frontière et mobilité résidentielle : Le cas de l'Arc jurassien franco-suisse
2011
Objectif de la communication et originalité du sujet : cette communication présente les conclusions intermédiaires que nous dégageons d'un ensemble d'enquêtes réalisées en 2010 dans le cadre d'un projet soutenu par le programme Interreg IV. L'objet est de montrer dans quelle mesure les mobilités résidentielles transfrontalières ne sont pas seulement guidées par des logiques de coût de l'immobilier, mais bien par des mécanismes plus complexes qui mêlent parcours de vie et parcours professionnels et qui s'appuient sur les différentiels occasionnés par la présence d'une frontière. En ce sens les résultats sont tout à fait originaux, fondés sur des enquêtes de terrain et allant à l'encontre des…
Taxonomy and conservation ofPancratium maritimum(Amaryllidaceae) and relatives in the Central Mediterranean
2015
Pancratium maritimum L. (Amaryllidaceae) is a geophyte occurring in the Mediterranean region, from the Black Sea to part of the Atlantic coast. This plant is receiving much attention from the international scientific community due to its value as a bioindicator, the potential industrial value of its chemical compounds, and its use as a commercial ornamental plant. Plant morphometry and sequences of three plastid DNA regions (rbcL, matK, trnH-psbA) were used to assess the phenotypic and genetic variability of this taxon and its closest congeneric species (in particular Pancratium linosae, from the volcanic island of Linosa) in the Central Mediterranean (Sicily, Tunisia and surrounding island…
Physiactisome: A New Nanovesicle Drug Containing Heat Shock Protein 60 for Treating Muscle Wasting and Cachexia.
2022
Currently, no commercially available drugs have the ability to reverse cachexia or counteract muscle wasting and the loss of lean mass. Here, we report the methodology used to develop Physiactisome—a conditioned medium released by heat shock protein 60 (Hsp60)—overexpressing C2C12 cell lines enriched with small and large extracellular vesicles. We also present evidence supporting its use in the treatment of cachexia. Briefly, we obtain a nanovesicle-based secretion by genetically modifying C2C12 cell lines with an Hsp60-overexpressing plasmid. The secretion is used to treat naïve C2C12 cell lines. Physiactisome activates the expression of PGC-1α isoform 1, which is di…
Role of muscle-targeted nutritional therapy: new data.
2022
Purpose of review To provide an updated overview of recent efficacy data on the use of muscle-targeted nutritional therapy, which should consider the optimization of protein and essential amino acids intakes, possibly in combination with supplementation with vitamin D (correction of deficiency/insufficiency status) and v-3 fatty acids. Recent findings Intervention studies conducted in the last years in different healthcare settings and heterogeneous patient populations support the use of muscle-targeted oral nutritional supplementation to improve muscle mass, function and physical performance in patients with sarcopenia. Higher efficacy is likely to be achieved in combination with individua…
The utility of SATB2 immunohistochemical expression in distinguishing between osteosarcomas and their malignant bone tumor mimickers, such as Ewing s…
2016
SATB2 is commonly expressed in osteosarcomas. Although apparently being a valuable diagnostic marker for differentiating between small cell osteosarcoma (SCO) and other small round cell tumors of bone, for instance Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT), it has not been tested in a large series of ESFT and chondrosarcomas so far. We studied the immunohistochemical expression of SATB2 in 42 osteosarcomas, 31 chondrosarcomas, and 371 genetically confirmed ESFT. SATB2 positivity was detected in 90.4% of osteosarcomas, 87.5% of SCO, 91.3% of osteoblastic osteosarcomas, and in all chondroblastic and parosteal osteosarcomas. The osteoblastic and SCO subtypes expressed SATB2 more intensely than oth…
Does δ-sarcoglycan-associated autosomal-dominant cardiomyopathy exist?
2009
In this study we clinically and genetically characterize a consanguineous family with a homozygous novel missense mutation in the delta-sarcoglycan gene and a second delta-sarcoglycan mutation that has previously been reported to cause severe autosomal-dominant dilated cardiomyopathy. We identified a novel missense mutation in exon 6 (p.A131P) of the delta-sarcoglycan gene, which in a homozygous state leads to the clinical picture of a limb girdle muscular dystrophy. In four heterozygous carriers for the mutation, aged 3-64 years, a second sequence variant in exon 6 (p.S151A) of the delta-sarcoglycan gene was detected on the other allele. This second missense change had previously been repo…
Parosteal osteosarcoma of the talus.
1995
A case of parosteal osteosarcoma in the very rare location of the talus is presented. The radiological, pathological, and clinical characteristics of parosteal osteosarcoma are described and the differential diagnosis discussed.
Hyperplastic callus formation in osteogenesis imperfecta: CT and MRI findings.
1998
Hyperplastic callus formation is a noteworthy condition in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta because it often mimicks osteosarcoma on radiography. The findings of CT and MRI in hyperplastic callus formation have not been reported. In the presented case, MRI demonstrated contrast enhancement and edema of the surrounding soft tisssue, consistent with benign as well as malignant disease. Computed tomography showed a calcified rim of the lesion which may be a useful feature to rule out osteosarcoma in this condition.
