Olfactory and cortical projections to bulbar and hippocampal adult-born neurons
2015
New neurons are continually generated in the subependymal layer of the lateral ventricles and the subgranular zone of dentate gyrus during adulthood. In the subventricular zone, neuroblasts migrate a long distance to the olfactory bulb where they differentiate into granule or periglomerular interneurons. In the hippocampus, neuroblasts migrate a short distance from the subgranular zone to the granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus to become granule neurons. In addition to the short-distance inputs, bulbar interneurons receive long-distance centrifugal afferents from olfactory-recipient structures. Similarly, dentate granule cells receive differential inputs from the medial and lateral ento…
Characterization of Epileptic Spiking Associated With Brain Amyloidosis in APP/PS1 Mice
2019
Epileptic activity without visible convulsions is common in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and may contribute adversely to the disease progress and symptoms. Transgenic mice with amyloid plaque pathology also display epileptic seizures, but those are too infrequent to assess the effect of anti-epileptic treatments. Besides spontaneous seizures, these mice also display frequent epileptic spiking in epidural EEG recordings, and these have provided a means to test potential drug treatment to AD-related epilepsy. However, the origin of EEG spikes in transgenic AD model mice has remained elusive, which makes it difficult to relate electrophysiology with underlying pathology at the cellular and molecul…

Anomalous performance enhancement effects in Ruthenium-based Dye Sensitized Solar Cells
2017
Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) are nowadays more and more employed since they present lower production costs than traditional silicon photovoltaic devices. An interesting phenomenon affecting such devices consists in the fact that current density-voltage (J-V) characteristic can depend on the history of the cell prior to the measurement, which often can be assimilated to an anomalous hysteresis effect. In this work, we study such phenomenon on Ruthenium-based DSSCs through a series of measurements performed after applying different values of external electrical field to the cell. The measurements have been carried out both under simulated sunlight (AM1.5G - 1000 W/m2) and in the dark. W…

Density Decline in a Mediterranean Seahorse Population: Natural Fluctuations or New Emerging Threats?
2021
Illegal wildlife trade is considered one of the most serious threats to biodiversity worldwide, along with habitat loss/degradation and overfishing of wild stocks. Seahorses are considered at high risk as these fish represent an important component of traditional Chinese medicine but are also sold as curios and ornamental fish. On a worldwide level, illegal trade is controlled by numerous laws and regulations, but it seems to continue by assuming more dynamic routes. In the Mediterranean Sea, Hippocampus guttulatus formed one of the largest populations at Mar Piccolo di Taranto in South-Eastern Italy. During the routine monitoring of this population in 2016, a dramatic density decrease was …

Giuseppa Balsamo(*)- Giuseppe Ingrassia(**) ANALISI DI TALUNI ASPETTI DELL’ OFFERTA TURISTICA DELLA VILLA ROMANA DEL CASALE E DEL TERRITORIO CIRCOSTANTE ALLA LUCE DI UNA INDAGINE CAMPIONARIA Riassunto Questa ricerca ha lo scopo di far conoscere le opinioni dei visitatori/turisti dopo la visita dell’importante Sito archeologico siciliano denominato Villa Romana del Casale (nel prosieguo“Villa”) di Piazza Armerina (EN). L’obiettivo principale della ricerca è quello di migliorare l’offerta turistica e di incentivare le visite sia alla Villa che in tutta l’Area circostante, costituita anche dal Museo regionale di Aidone, dall’Area archeologica di Morgantina e dal Museo di Enna, al fine di dare …
