El tema en -ι en griego y la clasificación nominal indoeuropea: enfoque tipológico y semántico
2015
Utilizando los principales avances en materia de categorización y clasificación nominal así como otros principios de contrastada presencia en las lenguas del mundo (tabú y eufemismo, fonosemántica, adquisición del habla en niños), se analiza desde una perspectiva diacrónica, semántica y tipológica la categoría nominal del tema en -ι del griego antiguo, con el fin de observar si la agrupación de nombres dentro de esta categoría responde a una motivación basada en el significado de los términos que la integran. Using the main advances in categorization and nominal classification and other current and well attested principles in world languages (taboo and euphemism, phonosemantics, child langu…
El futur de la psicologia
2008
Ni que siga per consolidar i excel·lir els avanços aconseguits 'també en l'àmbit de la nostra ciència, la Psicologia', convé mirar al futur, tal com l'autor de la present col·laboració postula. I això amb perspectiva integradora i comunitària, recuperant l'harmonització de les ciències i de la vida mateixa, en forma de trilogia dels factors 'investigació, mediació computacional i tribut a la societat'. Afegeix l'autor l'exigència de gradients o nivells operatius d'intervenció i la contextualització europea i planetària en un món globalitzat que no té marxa enrere. S'aposta pel «capital humà» per assolir l'autèntic progrés i es defi neixen els trets bàsics del professional de la Psicologia, …

Chemical Composition and Evaluation of Insecticidal Activity of Seseli bocconei Essential Oils against Stored Products Pests
2022
In this study, the chemical composition of the essential oils (EOs) obtained from different aerial parts (flowers, leaves, and stems) of Seseli bocconei Guss., a wild species endemic of Sicily, was investigated. Furthermore, the EOs’ biocidal effects towards two pests of stored products, Sitophilus oryzae and Callosobruchus maculates, were evaluated. This activity was evaluated in Petri dish bioassays to establish the survival rate of adults treated with the EOs comparing them with solvent and a commonly used insecticide (pyrethrum). The data obtained from the toxicity bioassay evidenced that stems’ EOs and leaves’ EOs have a contact/fumigation effect towards the two insec…
Vaccinium macrocarpon (Cranberry)-Based Dietary Supplements: Variation in Mass Uniformity, Proanthocyanidin Dosage and Anthocyanin Profile Demonstrat…
2020
Vaccinium macrocarpon (syn. American Cranberry) is employed in dietary supplements (DS) with the aim to improve urinary tract well-being. This property is linked to the antiadhesion-activity of proanthocyanidins (PACs) against uropathogenic-bacteria. However, the current European legislation has been criticized for being weak and ineffective. Indeed, recent scientific works report mislabeled, contaminated, and adulterated supplements containing dangerous or unknown compounds, or sold at toxic doses. In this work, we analysed 24 DS that claim to contain cranberry, and to have a specific dosage of PACs. Our tests included the control of the good manufacturing practice according to the Europea…
Polyoxypregnanes as safe, potent, and specific ABCB1-inhibitory pro-drugs to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo
2021
Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) is significantly hindering effective cancer chemotherapy. However, currently, no ABCB1-inhibitory drugs have been approved to treat MDR cancer clinically, mainly due to the inhibitor specificity, toxicity, and drug interactions. Here, we reported that three polyoxypregnanes (POPs) as the most abundant constituents of Marsdenia tenacissima (M. tenacissima) were novel ABCB1-modulatory pro-drugs, which underwent intestinal microbiota-mediated biotransformation in vivo to generate active metabolites. The metabolites at non-toxic concentrations restored chemosensitivity in ABCB1-overexpressing cancer cells v…
Erwinia piriflorinigrans sp. nov., a novel pathogen that causes necrosis of pear blossoms
2010
Eight Erwinia strains, isolated from necrotic pear blossoms in València, Spain, were compared with reference strains of Erwinia amylovora and Erwinia pyrifoliae, both of which are pathogenic to species of pear tree, and to other species of the family Enterobacteriaceae using a polyphasic approach. Phenotypic analyses clustered the novel isolates into one phenon, distinct from other species of the genus Erwinia, showing that the novel isolates constituted a homogeneous phenotypic group. Rep-PCR profiles, PCR products obtained with different pairs of primers and plasmid contents determined by restriction analysis showed differences between the novel strains and reference strains of E. amylovo…
The European Regional Convergence Process, 1980-1995: Do Spatial Regimes and Spatial Dependence Matter?
2002
International audience; The authors show that spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity matter in the estimation of the ß-convergence process among 138 European regions over the 1980 to 1995 period. Using spatial econometrics tools, the authors detect both spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity in the form of structural instability across spatial convergence clubs. The estimation of the appropriate spatial regimes spatial error model shows that the convergence process is different across regimes. The authors also estimate a strongly significant spatial spillover effect: the average growth rate of per capita GDP of a given region is positively affected by the average growth rate of …
L’AGENZIA FRONTEX E L’AGENDA EUROPEA SULLA MIGRAZIONE
2020
Questo lavoro trae spunto dalla relazione introduttiva al Convegno “La Sfida migratoria in Europa e negli Usa- politiche e modelli d’accoglienza a confronto” tenutosi ad Agrigento l’8 ed il 9 giugno 2017 presso il Consorzio universitario di Agrigento ed organizzato dall’Università di Palermo, dalla Stony Brook University di New York e dalla Fondazione Migrantes di Roma.
Effects of fatiguing jumping exercise on mRNA expression of titin-complex proteins and calpains.
2009
Eccentric exercise induced by electrostimulation increases mRNA expression of titin-complex proteins in rodent skeletal muscle. In this study, mRNA expression of titin, muscle LIM protein (MLP), cardiac ankyrin repeat protein (CARP), ankyrin repeat domain protein 2 (Ankrd2), diabetes-related ankyrin repeat protein (DARP), and calcium-activated proteinases, calpains, were investigated in human skeletal muscle after fatiguing jumping exercise. Fatiguing jumping exercise did not change mRNA expression of titin, DARP, calpain 1, or calpain 3. MLP, Ankrd2 and calpain 2 mRNA levels were increased 2 days postexercise. CARP mRNA level was already elevated 30 min and remained elevated 2 days postexe…
