«Correlation between granulocytes and tunic cuticle of Ciona intestinalis (Tunicata, Ascidiacea) as evaluated by microscopy»
2012
The tunic is a peculiar integumentary tissue covering the epidermis of ascidians and other tunicates. It is an extracellular matrix whose outermost surface is revealed to be a continuos layer called tunic cuticle, composed of electron dense fibrous materials. Mechanisms occurring during the growth of the animal after metamorphosis, must assure the maintenance of the thin tunic cuticle density and integrity as it represents the primary body surface barrier preventing the mechanical and microbial assaults. Investigations by optical and electron microscopy on tunic samples from young Ciona intestinalis, allowed us to study morphological relationship between the tunic cuticle architecture and g…

Attività proliferante degli emociti di Ciona intestinalis
2009
La proliferazione è il termine che definisce il processo di crescita delle popolazioni cellulari. Nell’ematopoiesi dei Vertebrati, la cellula staminale trascorre la maggior parte del suo ciclo vitale nello stadio G0 e si divide per produrre il progenitore staminale in grado di proliferare attivamente. In Ciona intestinalis poco si sa circa l’ematopoiesi sebbene, alcuni autori hanno descritto nel faringe zone di proliferazione definite col termine di noduli emopoietici e, per gli emociti cosiddetti linfocito-like, un’attività proliferativa in seguito a stimolazione. In questo lavoro viene riportata l’attività proliferante degli emociti circolanti. Gli emociti sono stati caratterizzati utiliz…

Calorimetric and structural investigation of the interaction between bovine serum albumin and high molecular weight dextran in water.
2005
This work studies specific interactions between a small globular protein and a highly flexible, branched polysaccharide using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), circular dichroism (CD), fluorescence, and turbidimetry measurements. It uses the system water/bovine serum albumin (BSA)/dextran (D 2000) as a model. Dextran molecules are able to form interpolymeric complexes with BSA in water at both low and high temperatures if the polysaccharide is in excess and if the protein exists in its associated state. It leads to a partial destabilization of the secondary and tertiary structures of the protein and an additional exposure of the hydrophobic tryptophan residues to the surface of globu…
