Cateslytin and Chromofungin, two CgA derived peptides: actors of the immune and cardiac systems
(2017-05-03)Chromogranin A (CgA) belongs to the granin family of uniquely acidic secretory that are ubiquitous in secretory cells of the nervous, endocrine, immune system. Numerous cleavage products of the granins have been identified, ... -
Structure/function relationships of the human heterodimeric amino acids transporter 4F2hc/LAT1
(2017-06-09)Amino acids transport in mammalian cells is mediated by different amino acid transporters whose activity allow the flow of an important source for metabolic need of cells. Moreover, some amino acids such as Gln, Arg and ... -
Investigating how movement affects prey camouflage using an insect predator
(2019-06-09)Patterns that help prey camouflage themselves whilst stationary prove to be ineffective once prey move. Given that motion breaks camouflage, can a moving prey ever be effectively concealed? Recent studies have found that ... -
Weathering ed esumazione di rocce plutoniche del massiccio della Sila durante il quaternario
(2018-05-11)I sedimenti sono il risultato dell’alterazione meccanica e biogeochimica delle rocce, dovuti agli stress tettonici e ai fenomeni di weathering in una determinata area sorgente (Hinderer, 2012). La natura e l’intensità del ... -
Cardiac plasticity in fish: the influence of humoral and environmental factors
(2018-06-22)Il rimodellamento cardiaco è un fenomeno complesso che permette un’adeguata attività d’organo in risposta a cambiamenti fisiologici e patologici e coinvolge modificazioni a livello tissutale, cellulare e molecolare, ... -
Effetti del daidzein sul comportamento mnemonico attraverso le variazioni del sistema neurotensinergico e di fattori infiammatori in aree limbiche di criceti high fat diet
(2018-04-11)In the past years, growing indications have pointed to food diets as major factors capable of conditioning physical-social states in humans as suggested by high-fat containing food sources which, despite their extremely ... -
Compositional and textural study of beach sands from active volcanic areas (southern tyrrhenian sea)
(2018-05-11)The main goal of this research focuses on the provenance, compositional and textural investigation of modern sand supplied from volcanic terrains (southern Tyrrhenian sea). This is a contribution to quantify the controls ... -

(2018-05-11)BPSD have a deep physical and psychological impact on patients affected by any kind of dementing illness and on caregiver in terms of costs and resources and represent an important cause of institutionalization. The aim ... -
Genetic variability of amino acid transporters: study of the influence on physical decline and human survival
(2018-05-31)Il presente progetto di ricerca si inserisce nell’ambito della tematica generale di ricerca del laboratorio di Genetica dell’Università della Calabria, relativa allo studio della comprensione dei meccanismi intrinseci ... -
<<L'>> approccio multidisciplinare per la diagnostica di Hagia Sophia (Istanbul – Turchia)
(2019-05-21)Da circa 1500 anni l’edificio di Hagia Sophia domina sull’odierna città di Istanbul e la sua tormentata storia, fatta di incendi, crolli, ricostruzioni e occupazioni, è stata oggetto di numerosi studi. Lo studio di tesi ... -
Relazione tra weathering e tettonica nei processi morfoevolutivi di una porzione del versante occidentale del massiccio della Sila, Calabria
(2019-05-21)Il weathering attraverso i suoi processi di degradazione chimico-fisica porta al disfacimento delle rocce cristalline con conseguente formazione di una coltre più o meno spessa di roccia alterata, a grado di alterazione ... -
Functional cooperation between GPER and AHR toward breast cancer progression
(2019-04-11)The cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) is a heme-thiolate monooxygenase involved in both estrogen and environmental contaminants metabolism. For instance, CYP1B1 catalyzes the hydroxylation of 17-β estradiol (E2) leading to ... -

(2019-04-11)Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health problem worldwide and its main consequences include the loss of renal function leading to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), an increased risk of cardiovascular disease ... -
Interface rheology of structured food
(2019-03-18)Proteins are widely used to form and to stabilize the interfacial layers in multiphase systems, due to their surface activity and their ability to give high mechanical resistance to interfacial layers. In the food industry, ... -
Impact of DNA methylation status on plant response to cd explored through a transcriptomic analysis
(2019-04-11)Due to their sessile life style, plants are continuously exposed to a variety of abiotic and biotic stresses which could potentially hinder their growth, development, productivity and survival. In this scenario, it appears ...
