Mononuclear Mn(III) and dinuclear Mn(III,III) Schiff base complexes: Influence of π–π stacking on magnetic properties

2012

Abstract Synthesis of a mononuclear Mn(III) (1) and a dinuclear Mn(III, III) (2) complex of a tetradentate N2O2 donor Schiff base ligand with ancillary carboxylate ligands are reported. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, complex 2 in the triclinic space group P-1. In both complexes the central Mn(III) ions are hexacoordinated having a distorted octahedral MnN2O4 coordination environment. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding and strong π–π stacking in both 1 and 2 leads to dimerization of 1 and formation of a syn–anti one-dimensional chain for 2. Magnetic properties of 1 and 2 are reported. Both complexes show very weak intermolecular antiferromagnetic interaction. Most in…

Data from: Megaphylogenetic specimen-level approaches to the Carex (Cyperaceae) phylogeny using ITS, ETS, and matK sequences: implications for classi…

2017

We present the first large-scale phylogenetic hypothesis for the genus Carex based on 996 of the 1983 accepted species (50.23%). We used a supermatrix approach using three DNA regions: ETS, ITS and matK. Every concatenated sequence was derived from a single specimen. The topology of our phylogenetic reconstruction largely agreed with previous studies. We also gained new insights into the early divergence structure of the two largest clades, core Carex and Vignea clades, challenging some previous evolutionary hypotheses about inflorescence structure. Most sections were recovered as non-monophyletic. Homoplasy of characters traditionally selected as relevant for classification, historical mis…

Compromised nuclear envelope integrity drives TREX1-dependent DNA damage and tumor cell invasion

2021

Although mutations leading to a compromised nuclear envelope cause diseases such as muscular dystrophies or accelerated aging, the consequences of mechanically induced nuclear envelope ruptures are less known. Here, we show that nuclear envelope ruptures induce DNA damage that promotes senescence in non-transformed cells and induces an invasive phenotype in human breast cancer cells. We find that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated exonuclease TREX1 translocates into the nucleus after nuclear envelope rupture and is required to induce DNA damage. Inside the mammary duct, cellular crowding leads to nuclear envelope ruptures that generate TREX1-dependent DNA damage, thereby driving the …

A primal-dual algorithm for the fermat-weber problem involving mixed gauges

1987

We give a new algorithm for solving the Fermat-Weber location problem involving mixed gauges. This algorithm, which is derived from the partial inverse method developed by J.E. Spingarn, simultaneously generates two sequences globally converging to a primal and a dual solution respectively. In addition, the updating formulae are very simple; a stopping rule can be defined though the method is not dual feasible and the entire set of optimal locations can be obtained from the dual solution by making use of optimality conditions. When polyhedral gauges are used, we show that the algorithm terminates in a finite number of steps, provided that the set of optimal locations has nonepty interior an…

Metilazione del DNA in artrite reumatoide

2005

Lo stato di metilazione del DNA genomico e del gene PTHrP è stato valutato con tecniche molecolari e citogenetiche in artrite reumatoide (AR), patologia autoimmune caratterizzata anche da alta incidenza di linfomi e da ipercalcemia per overespressione del gene PTHrP. La metilazione del DNA, infatti, ha un ruolo critico nello sviluppo delle malattie neoplastiche; il gene PTHrP avendo tre promotori uno dei quali contiene un’isola CpG è un buon candidato per la deregolazione da alterato pattern di metilazione locale. Le indagini sulla metilazione genomica, condotte su DNA estratto da sangue periferico di pazienti e di donatori e amplificato in reazioni di Methylation-Sensitive Arbitrarily Prim…

Settore BIO/18 - Geneticainstead chromosomes of controls were almost uniformly decorated by brilliant grains. Studies on methylation of PTHrP gene promoter 2 performed on five CpG island internal sites using the Methylation-Sensitive Restriction Endonuclease Multiplex (MSREM)-PCR showed that one of the sites nearest the trascription starting point is heavy methylated in a significantly high number of RA patients. Thus RA seems to be characterized by genomewide hypomethylation associated with local hypermethylation like the most part of tumors. This result raises the possibility that susceptibility to lymphomas is related to abnormal DNA methylation levels and suggests the opportunity to evaluate the DNA methylation status in RA patientin fact the demethylating therapies together with diet and life style can act towards an increase of tumor risk. Future studies using a larger number of subjects could confirm these findings.Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic multisystem inflammatory disease characterized by high recurrence of lymphomas as well as hypercalcemia due to PTHrP overexpression. Because of DNA methylation plays a critical role in development of neoplasias we determined in RA patients the global DNA methylation status and local methylation pattern of the CpG island of one of the three promoters of PTHrP gene utilizing molecular and cytogenetic techniques. Investigations performed on DNA from peripheral blood of patients and donors amplified by Methylation-Sensitive Arbitrarily Primed (MeS-AP)-PCR indicated that RA is strongly associated with global DNA hypomethylation. Similarly chromosomal DNA methylation pattern analysis by indirect immunofluorescence technique with anti 5-methylcitosine antibody showed all peripheral lymphocyte metaphases from RA patients with chromosomes weakly fluorescent without discrete grain

Prime impressioni relative alla sentenza 41/2019 della Supreme Court sulla (il)legittimità della sospensione dei lavori del Parlamento inglese.

2019

La controversa e divisiva materia della fuoriuscita della Gran Bretagna dall'Unione Europea, sancita da un referendum popolare del giugno 2016, nota con l'espressione Brexit, ha ripetutamente chiamato in causa la Supreme Court in ordine alla legittimità delle procedure interne seguite dal Governo per dare concreta attuazione al voto referendario ed individuare i necessari passaggi. Da ultimo, nel settembre 2019 la Corte è stata investita di un gruppo di ricorsi contrapposti, nei confronti di contrastanti sentenze inglese e scozzese, riguardanti la decisione governativa, evidentemente indirizzata a rendere più rapido e meno incerto nell'esito l'itinerario destinato a condurre a termine il co…

Il ruolo del Consiglio europeo nella Brexit

2019

Il Consiglio europeo ha svolto un ruolo di primo piano nella Brexit. L’articolo cerca di spiegare che questo ruolo è stato più ampio rispetto a quello espressamente conferito dall’art. 50 TUE per affrontare poi due problemi: nello svolgere questo ruolo il Consi- glio europeo ha agito solo come istituzione dell’Unione europea o anche come vertice di capi Stato? E ha rispettato il principio dell’equilibrio istituzionale? The European Council has been playing a leading role in Brexit procedure. This article aims at showing how this role does not simply reflect the powers explicitly assigned to the European Council under Article 50 TEU. Two more questions are addressed: In performing its role h…

ANORESSIA SENILE

2009

Malgrado l’elevata e crescente prevalenza del sovrappeso, il principale problema nutrizionale nell’anziano è rappresentato dalla malnutrizione per difetto spesso secondaria a riduzione dell’introito alimentare ed alla perdita di motivazione all’assunzione di cibo. Ciò fa pensare alla presenza nell’età senile di problemi correlati alla regolazione del bilancio energetico ed al controllo del senso della fame e della sazietà. L’anoressia conseguente all’invecchiamento rappresenta una causa comune di malnutrizione che è associata ad un aumento della mortalità e della disabilità funzionale.
