Mito e simbolo nella teoria archetipica
2008
ARCHEOLOGIA E ALTRO
2007
Il paesaggio è spesso considerato come lo scenario inerte e immutabile di una serie di eventi a esso esterni e, anzi, riguardati come negativi. Al paesaggio siciliano si sovrappone, in più, l’immagine - largamente accreditata presso gli altri, ma anche condivisa dai suoi abitanti - di una Sicilia assai poco reale. Bisogna, dunque, introdurre brevemente alcuni parametri utili a orientare il discorso, prima di entrarvi nel merito e di mostrarlo sotto una forma e da un punto di vista diversi da quelli usualmente praticati. E ciò allo scopo di fornire chiavi di lettura e riferimenti rispetto a luoghi, eventi e situazioni che si devono conoscere e approfondire in ragione di una corretta valutazi…
Un etimo vichiano e il mito come categoria della ragione
1987
Il legame fra mito e logos nella "Scienza nuova" vichiana, problematizzato in relazione all'opposizione che Platone istituisce fra i due termini nel "Parmenide".

Mitochondrial protein expression in Ratt and in human cells
2006
In the present paper, we analyzed some aspects of the post-transcriptional regulation of two COX (cy-tochrome c oxidase) subunits, i.e. mitochondrion-encoded COXIII and nucleus-encoded COXIV. In particular, by T1 RNase protection assays, we found two proteins, present in mitochondrial extracts from adult rat brain and testis, able to bind COXIII mRNA. We also found cytoplasmic proteins present in testis, kidney and heart extracts that bind COXIV mRNA. Moreover, to study the expression of mitochondrial proteins in tumor cells, we quantitated COXIV and Hsp60 chaperonin abundance in two epithelial cell lines from human breast, one neoplastic (MDA-MB231) and the other immortalized and non-tumor…
Cellular and tissue expression of DAPIT, a phylogenetically conserved peptide
2012
DAPIT (Diabetes Associated Protein in Insulin-sensitive Tissues) is a small, phylogenetically conserved, 58 amino acid peptide that was previously shown to be down-regulated at mRNA level in insulin-sensitive tissues of type 1 diabetes rats. In this study we characterize a custom made antibody against DAPIT and confirm the mitochondrial presence of DAPIT on cellular level. We also show that DAPIT is localized in lysosomes of HUVEC and HEK 293T cells. In addition, we describe the histological expression of DAPIT in several tissues of rat and man and show that it is highly expressed especially in cells with high aerobic metabolism and epithelial cells related to active transport of nutrients …
How hypothalamic mitochondria translate the energy status of the boby

CHARACTERIZATION AND ENERGETIC METABOLISM ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT POPULATIONS OF UMBILICAL CORD MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS FOR THE TREATMENT OF STROKE
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. A direct consequence of oxygen and glucose deprivation during stroke is the dysfunction of mitochondria that impairs oxidative metabolism and contributes to oxidative stress, neuronal death and inflammation. Human umbilical cord (UC)-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs) are an attractive source for regenerative medicine purposes due to their self-renewal and multipotent differentiation potential, immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory abilities. Notably, because UC is supplied from only three blood vessels, the UC-MSCs are physiologically adapted to survive in a relatively hypoxic and glucose poor environment leading to the hypothesis that thes…
Functions of the translation factor eIF5A in cellular metabolism and transcriptional control
2023
El factor de inicio de traducción de eucariotas 5A (eIF5A) es una proteína esencial y conservada con funciones en las tres fases de la traducción. eIF5A está codificado por dos genes parálogos, TIF51A/TIF51B y EIF5A1/EIF5A2 en levadura y humanos respectivamente. eIF5A es la única proteína que contiene hipusina, una modificación esencial para su actividad, y se une a los ribosomas para facilitar la traducción de motivos con prolinas consecutivas o combinaciones de prolina con glicina y aminoácidos cargados. eIF5A participa en otras funciones y procesos como exporte de mRNAs nucleares, proliferación y apoptosis. Su asociación con enfermades como el cáncer es de interés. En esta tesis se han u…
