Gene expression patterns and stress response in the copepod Calanus helgolandicus
(2011)Diatoms and dinoflagellates are dominant photosynthetic organisms in the world‟s oceans and are considered essential in the transfer of energy through marine food chains. However, these unicellular organisms produce secondary ... -
Ecologia e biologia riproduttiva in una popolazione alloctona di Trachemys scripta elegans in Calabria
(2012-12-14)This research was carried out from 2009 to 2011 in the Lake of Angitola on the reproductive biology of the slider turtle Trachemys scripta elegans, an alien species that in this site has been naturalized since the 1980’s. ... -
Angiotensin II and mechanisms of oxidative damage in HUVECs
(2011-12-14)The endothelium is essential for the maintenance of vascular homeostasis. Central to this role is the production of endothelium – derived nitric oxide (EDNO), synthesized by endothelial isoform of nitric oxide synthase ... -
Studio archeometrico di ceramiche rinvenute a Pompei (scavi I.E. 1980-81): provenienza e tecnologia di produzione
(2013-11-04)The following work focuses on the archaeometric characterization of different pottery classes found in Pompeii during the I.E. excavations in 1980-1981. These investigations, carried out in the western part of the Forum, ... -
Geochemical modeling of water-rock interaction in the ophiolitic aquifers of Northern Calabria
(2013-11-04)This study was developed in two distinct parts with the ultimate aim to investigate the weathering processes of the metabasalts and serpentinites of Northern Calabria, taking into account the dissolution kinetics of relevant ... -
Leaf proteomics of seagrasses under light conditions and salinity
(2013-11-29)Le fanerogame marine, nel nostro studio limitate alle seagrasses, si sono adattate per occupare vaste estensioni dei fondi litorali e hanno dovuto sviluppare diversi adattamenti per poter vivere completamente sommerse. Le ... -
Identification of a feral olive dehydrin gene and its development as a tool for drought tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana
(2013-11-28)Stress abiotici, quali deficit idrico e salinizzazione del suolo influenzano negativamente la crescita delle piante e la produttività delle colture (Liu et al., 2004; Wu et al., 2007). In campo vegetale, tra le strategie ... -
Heterologous over-expression of the human amino acid transportes LAT1-CD98 and ASCT2
(2013-12-02)Amino acid transport across the plasma membrane in mammalian cells is mediated by different transport systems such as the Na+-dependent systems A, ASC and N and the Na+- independent system L. Very interestingly some of ... -
Ruolo di GPER sulla funzione cardiovascolare in condizioni di ipertensione: caratterizzazione fisiologica del recettore in Ratti Spontaneamente ipertesi (SHR)
(2013-11-25)Estrogens promote beneficial effects in the cardiovascular system mainly through the estrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ, which act as ligand-gated transcription factors. Recently, the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) ...
