Nose-to-brain delivery of insulin enhanced by a nanogel carrier.

2018

Recent evidences suggest that insulin delivery to the brain can be an important pharmacological therapy for some neurodegenerative pathologies, including Alzheimer disease (AD). Due to the presence of the Blood Brain Barrier, a suitable carrier and an appropriate route of administration are required to increase the efficacy and safety of the treatment. Here, poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone)-based nanogels (NG), synthetized by e-beam irradiation, alone and with covalently attached insulin (NG-In) were characterized for biocompatibility and brain delivery features in a mouse model. Preliminarily, the biodistribution of the "empty" nanocarrier after intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection was investigated b…

Regeneration of Sideritis angustifolia (Labiatae) Plants from Single Cell Cultures

1988

Summary Mechanically isolated cells from hypocotyl-derived calli of Sideritis angustifolia Lag. were inoculated on agar-solidified Murashige and Skoog (MS) nutrient medium containing CH and different concentrations and combinations of NAA and BA. Isolated cells underwent continued divisions giving rise to calli after 30 days of culture. Best results were obtained when medium was supplemented with 0.5 μM NAA and 4.4 or 8.8 μM BA or with 5 μM NAA and 4.4μM BA. Calli obtained in the presence of 0.5 μM NAA and 8.8 μM BA regenerated shoot-buds when transferred to MS medium without CH and supplemented or not with these growth regulators. Once shoots were excised, the calli maintained their morpho…

Occurrence of tomato pith necrosis caused by Pseudomonas marginalis in Italy.

2010

Dipartimento di Scienze e Tecnologie Fitosanitarie. Universita` degli Studi di Catania. Via Santa Sofia 100, 95123 Catania, ItalyIn 2006, a serious outbreak of tomato pith necrosis (TPN) with approxi-mately 90% disease incidence was observed in two greenhouses in Sicily.Adult fruiting plants showed chlorosis and slight wilting of shoot apices.Internalstem browning alongthe entire length oftheplant was observed.Pith tissues were soft but not rotted or hollowed. Only fluorescent colo-nies developed on King’s B medium (KB) after isolation from infected tis-sues. Ten pure isolates were all levan, oxidase, potato soft-rotting andarginine dihydrolase positive and were negative for tobacco hypersens…

Immunology of dermatophytosis

1983

By causing experimental lesions of dermatophytosis in rabbits inoculated and reinoculated with T. mentagrophytes var. granulosum and T. rubrum a study was carried out of the state of cellular immunity response, during infection, and also of the antigens responsible for the sensitization. Cellular immunity response was detected using the leucocyte migration test (L.M.T.) in the presence of antigenic compounds of the 'Keratinase' of Eleuterio et al.

Colonization of flax roots and early physiological responses of flax cells inoculated with pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of Fusarium oxysporum

2003

ABSTRACT Fusarium oxysporum includes nonpathogenic strains and pathogenic strains that can induce necrosis or tracheomycosis in plants. The objective of this study was to compare the abilities of a pathogenic strain (Foln3) and a nonpathogenic strain (Fo47) to colonize flax roots and to induce early physiological responses in flax cell culture suspensions. Both strains colonized the outer cortex of the root; however, plant defense reactions, i.e., the presence of wall appositions, osmiophilic material, and collapsed cells, were less frequent and less intense in a root colonized by Foln3 than by Fo47. Early physiological responses were measured in flax cell suspensions confronted with germin…

Biosynthesis of the Collagen-like C1q Molecule and its Receptor Functions for Fc and Polyanionic Molecules on Macrophages

1983

At the beginning of the nineteenth century, knowledge of immunity was limited to a few practical methods based on empirical observations, e.g., the observation by Jenner in 1798 that inoculation with cowpox material induced an immunity to smallpox. The discoveries by Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch that microorganisms caused fermentations and were responsible for a number of infectious diseases, greatly advanced the concepts of susceptibility and immunity in a limited number of diseases. In the late nineteenth century, the complement system was discovered by Fodor(1887), Nuttall(1888), and Buchner (1889a, b) through studying the bactericidal action of blood serum. It was recognized that killi…

Use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and organic fertilization for soilless cultivation of basil

2021

Abstract Today there is a greater environmental and ecological awareness and it is growing the number of farmers who want to adopt sustainable and efficient cultivation systems even if not officially certified as organic. Sustainable and modern cultivation systems must involve organic fertilization and cannot ignore the role of rhizosphere microorganisms. Starting from this premise, this paper aimed to evaluate the use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and organic liquid fertilizers on soilless cultivation of basil. Genovese basil plants were cultivated in pots filled with a substrate inoculated or not with a commercial biostimulant (TNC BactorrS13) containing growth-promoting …
