Abstract:
Hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin deletion type-2 (HPFH-2) and Sicilian-δβ-thalassemia are conditions described as large deletions of the human β-like globin cluster, with absent β-globin chains and a compensatory variable increase in γ-globin. HPFH, in general, may be distinguished from DB-Thalassemia by higher fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels, absence of anemia and hypochromic and microcytic erythrocytes. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate a range of cellular processes including erythropoiesis and regulation of transcription factors such as the BCL11A and SOX6 genes, which are related to the regulation of γ-globin expression. In this report, a possible association among the overexpression of miRNAs and the expression of the γ-globin gene was analyzed in these two conditions. Forty-nine differentially expressed miRNAs were identified by microarrays in CD34+-derived erythroid cells of two subjects heterozygous for Sicilian-δβ-thalassemia, 2 for HPFH-2 and 3 for controls after 13 days of culture. Some of these miRNAs may participate in γ-globin gene regulation and red blood cell function. The BCL11A gene was found to be potentially targeted by 12 miRNAs that were up-regulated in HPFH-2 or in DB-Thal. A down-regulation of BCL11A gene expression in HPFH-2 was verified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. These data suggest an important action for miRNA that may partially explain the phenotypic differences between HPFH-2 and Sicilian δβ-thalassemia and the increased expression of γ-globin in these conditions.

Abstract:
Lo scopo dell’articolo è di segnalare l’importanza dell’ultima produzione in versi del poeta siciliano Nino De Vita considerato una delle voci liriche e narrative più originali nell’ambito della poesia dialettale e della letteratura in lingua italiana. La riflessione verrà articolata attorno al poemetto devitiano A ccanciu ri Maria pubblicato nel 2015 che coincide con la pubblicazione dell’Antologia bilingue del poeta percepita nei termini di un vero e proprio evento editoriale. Un evento che copre oltre trent’anni dell’attività poetica e narrativa segnata da un continuo intrecciarsi dell’esperienza di vita e di scrittura “in latitanza”."A ccanciu ri Maria" i "Antologia" Nina De Vity. Przypadek ujawnionego pisania „w ukryciu”Celem artykułu jest zwrócenie uwagi na ostatnie dokonania sycylijskiego poety Nina De Vity, uważanego za jeden z najbardziej oryginalnych głosów poetyckich – zarówno w pisarstwie dialektalnym, jak i w literaturze włoskiej. Refleksja dotyczy jego ostatniego opowiadania, pisanego wierszem A ccanciu ri Maria (W zamian za Marię), które ukazało się w 2015 roku. Publikacja ta zbiega się w czasie z innym ważnym wydarzeniem edytorskim, a mianowicie z ukazaniem się dwujęzycznej antologii obejmującej 30 lat twórczości poetyckiej i narracyjnej De Vity, naznaczonej nieustannym przenikaniem się doświadczeń życia i pisania „w ukryciu”.

Abstract:
Several morphological and agronomic traits and the genetic diversity of nine Dactylis glomerata L. populations collected throughout Sicily (semi-arid Mediterranean environment) were evaluated for two successive years. Significant differences were recorded for morphological traits (plant height, leaf length, leaf width). In relation to the measurement of summer dormancy, the results suggest the expression of different levels of dormancy (completely dormant, semi-dormant, and non-dormant). For biomass yield, some Sicilian populations (SD63 and SD56) characterised by low levels of summer dormancy show production levels similar to the summer-active control varieties (Medly and Porto). However, SD46, with a much higher level of dormancy, gave biomass yield higher than the summer-dormant control variety (Kasbah). The genetic diversity evaluated by fAFLP analysis confirms the observed morphological and agronomic variability.

Abstract:
Abstract A considerable number of deletions of variable size and position that involve the beta-globin gene complex on chromosome 11 are associated with the clinical entities of hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) and delta beta thalassemia. Specific deletions appear to be associated with consistent phenotypes and some are known to be recurrent. To facilitate the molecular diagnosis of uncharacterized patients with HPFH and delta beta thalassemia, oligonucleotide primers have been designed to enzymatically amplify deletion-specific products for nine known deletions, which include those responsible for HPFH-1, HPFH-2, HPFH-3, Spanish (delta beta)zero thalassemia, hemoglobin (Hb) Lepore, Sicilian (delta beta)zero thalassemia, Chinese G gamma(A gamma delta beta)zero thalassemia, Asian-Indian inversion-deletion G gamma(A gamma delta beta)zero thalassemia, and Turkish inversion-deletion (delta beta)zero thalassemia. Using this approach, we have successfully characterized the molecular basis for delta beta thalassemia in 23 individuals from 16 families of diverse ethnic origins. Thirteen individuals from this group were shown to be heterozygous for the 13.4- kb Sicilian deletion, two were heterozygous for the 100-kb Chinese G gamma(A gamma delta beta)zero deletion, four were heterozygous for the Turkish form of inversion-deletion delta beta thalassemia, and three were heterozygous for the Asian-Indian form of inversion-deletion G gamma(A gamma delta beta)zero thalassemia. One Vietnamese subject was heterozygous for a 12.6-kb deletion, which we have fully characterized at the molecular level. Sequence analysis of the breakpoint regions of the Chinese deletion and the Turkish rearrangement indicates that, in each case, the mutation is likely to have arisen from a single origin. This hypothesis is supported by the evident geographical clustering of the various deletions described here.

Abstract:
35delG is the most common mutation in the Connexin-26 gene, representing a major cause of autosomal recessive hearing loss. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the audiological phenotype and the 35delG mutation in 64 Sicilians with non-syndromic deafness. Pure-tone audiometry and a screening for 35delG mutation were performed. Audiograms were evaluated according to the classification of Liu and Xu. Thirteen homozygotes and nine heterozygotes for the investigated mutation were found. Symmetrical hearing loss was significantly (p=0.008) more common in homozygous subjects than in those without the Connexin-26 mutation. Profound-severe hypoacusia was found in 92.3 per cent of 35delG homozygous, 22.3 per cent of heterozygous and 58.7 per cent of 35delG absent patients. Residual shape audiograms were more frequent in homozygotes. A molecular analysis for the 35delG mutation should be performed in cases of symmetric, severe-profound congenital hearing loss, as a genetic cause is probable in such cases.

Abstract:
AbstractEven though the concepts and observations underlying sustainability are not a novelty, sustainable development was given impetus and made popular in 1987 by the Brundtland Report. This report introduced development policies and strategies that acknowledged the importance of resource and environmental constraints and the limitations imposed on growth patterns. Although sustainable development proved difficult to define and make operative, the concept was progressively applied to those economic sectors which had major detrimental effects on income, employment and wealth. Sustainable tourism was effectively one part of the effort to take full account of the current and future economic, social and environmental impacts of the sector, addressing the needs of visitors, industry, environment and host communities. After reviewing the main questions referring to the environmental, economic and social aspects of tourism development, this paper tries to identify a balanced indicator showing the impact of tourist accommodation facilities and related infrastructure in Sicily in terms of the three fundamental pillars of sustainability. Based on this indicator, the ranking of the nine Sicilian provinces is provided. In a wider perspective, the proposed approach is applied to make a comparison of tourism sustainability in Sicily and in other Italian regions.

Abstract:
To increase the knowledge about the biological properties of tomatoes, the antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of extracts of nine cultivars of Lycopersicon esculentum, as well as their chemical composition, were studied. The highest antioxidant capacity has been revealed in San Marzano Cirio 3 and Pomodoro Giallo cultivars, both in hydrophilic and lipophilic fractions, while San Marzano, Corbarino di Corbara, and Pomodoro Giallo exhibited the best radical scavenger activity in methanolic fraction. As regards the antiproliferative activity, the median inhibition concentrations of the lipophilic extracts ranged from 272.3 (Pomodoro Giallo) to 364.4 (Corbarino di Corbara) mg dried extract L-1 on Hep-G2 and from 324.6 (San Marzano Cirio 3) to 455.4 (Nero di Sicilia) on Caco-2. The methanolic extracts were more active on Caco-2 than Hep-G2, while the hydrophilic extracts were not active. These biological properties could be ascribed to the identified carotenoids and phenolic acids as well as to a pull of minor compounds exerting their synergistic effect.

Abstract:
November 5, 1611. London. At the court of James I, the king and his entourage settle down to enjoy the latest play by celebrated playwright William Shakespeare. The play in question is The Winter’s Tale, one of the clutch of so-called romances—along with Pericles, Cymbeline, and The Tempest—Shakespeare wrote before retiring back to Stratford, where he died in April 1616. Like Shakespeare’s other late plays, The Winter’s Tale offers a startling mixture of styles, oscillating wildly between pastoral comedy and intense psychological drama. It also includes a harrowing portrayal of extreme paranoia. Not that this could be guessed from the gentle opening of the play. Leontes, king of Sicily, is entertaining his childhood friend Polixenes, king of Bohemia. But having been away from home for nine months, Polixenes is anxious to return to Bohemia. Leontes pleads with him to stay, but Polixenes’ mind is made up. Or at least it is until Leontes asks his wife, Hermione, to speak to him. And though we might assume that Leontes will be overjoyed by Polixenes’ change of heart, what we see next couldn’t be more unexpected. Polixenes’ decision plunges Leontes into a savage spiral of paranoia. How was Hermione able to persuade his lifelong friend to stay in Sicily when his own efforts were futile? That’s simple: Hermione and Polixenes are lovers. Polixenes is the father of Hermione’s unborn child. And everyone except Leontes knows it: . . . They’re here with me already; whispering, rounding ‘Sicilia is a so-forth’ Tis far gone When I shall gust it last. . . . What starts off resembling a bizarre attack of jealousy soon develops into much more. Suddenly, and without a shred of evidence, Leontes suspects everyone of plotting against him—including his faithful subject Camillo, whose only crime is the attempt to defend Hermione: . . .
