Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Here, we reconstruct the history of the Botanic Garden of Brera of Milan from the Restoration of the Austrian Empire up to the early years of the Kingdom of Italy, when in 1863 the garden passed hands from the Liceo di Sant’Alessandro to the Istituto Tecnico Superiore of Milan. The reconstruction is based mostly on unpublished documentation preserved at the Archivio di Stato of Milan, the Biblioteca Braidense of Milan, the libraries of the Museo di Storia Naturale of Milan and the Archivio di Stato of Milan, the Archivio del Liceo Classico Statale Cesare Beccaria of Milan, the historical archives of the Politecnico of Milan, the Biblioteca di Biologia Vegetale, Dipartimento di Scienze della Vita e Biologia dei Sistemi, University of Turin, the Autografoteca Botanica of the Botanical Garden of the University of Modena, and the library of the Botanical Garden of the University of Padova. Overall, the period was one of slow decline for the Botanic Garden of Brera, against which successive directors – namely, Antonio Bodei, Francesco Enrico Acerbi, Giuseppe Balsamo Crivelli, Vincenzo Masserotti and Giustino Arpesani – combatted in vain. In particular, Balsamo Crivelli fought with great passion for many years to keep the level of the Botanic Garden of Brera at a satisfactory level, but he did not achieve the desired aim. However, he complied a partial list of the garden’s plants, of which an updated version is presented here.

Guo A-L, Petraglia F, Criscuolo M, Ficarra G, Nappi RE, Palumbo M, Valentini A, Genazzani AR. Acute stress- or lipopolysaccharide-induced corticosterone secretion in female rats is independent of the oestrous cycle. Eur J Endocrinol 1994;131:535–9. ISSN 0804–4643 The aim of the present study was to test whether oestrous cycle is associated with the hypothalamus–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis function. Thus, corticosterone secretion in rats was investigated following lipopolysaccharide (LPS), acute cold-swimming or ether stress or synthetic corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) administration throughout the oestrous cycle. Moreover, plasma corticosterone response to cold-swimming stress or LPS administration also was studied at different times of day on pro-oestrus of di-oestrus-I. The following observations were obtained: the morning plasma corticosterone levels in control rats did not differ with the stage of the oestrous cycle; plasma corticosterone levels increased significantly following LPS administration (2 mg/kg, ip) or following acute exposure to cold (4°C)-swimming or ether stress. However, this increase in plasma corticosterone levels was not related to the stage of the oestrous cycle; synthetic CRF injection induced an increase in plasma corticosterone levels constant on di-oestrus-I and pro-oestrus; plasma corticosterone response to LPS administration or acute cold-swimming stress showed diurnal changes, with the lowest values at 18.00 h. which was independent of the oestrous cycle. By showing the unchanged corticosterone response to LPS, to acute stress and to exogenous CRF throughout the oestrous cycle, and the independence of the diurnal pattern of stress response on the oestrous cycle, the present study suggests that the oestrous cycle has no influence on the HPA activity under the present experimental conditions in rats.

On 20<sup>th</sup> and 29<sup>th</sup> of May 2012, two powerful earthquakes struck northern Italy. The epicentres were recorded respectively in Finale Emilia (magnitude 5.9 Ml) and Medolla (magnitude 5.8 Ml) in the province of Modena, though the earthquake was formed by a series of seismic shakes located in the district of the Emilian Po Valley, mainly in the provinces of Modena, Ferrara, Mantova, Reggio Emilia, Bologna and Rovigo. Many monuments in the city of Mantova were hit by the earthquake and, among these, Palazzo Ducale with the well-known Castello di San Giorgio which host the noteworthy “Camera degli Sposi”. This building, the most famous of the city, was so damaged that it was closed for more than one year after the earthquake. The emblem of the Palace and Mantova itself, the previously cited “Camera degli Sposi” realized by Andrea Mantegna, was damaged and all the economic and social life of the city was deeply affected. Immediately after the earthquake, the Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici e Paesaggistici of Brescia, Cremona and Mantova establish an agreement with the University Iuav of Venice, requiring an analysis and assessment of the damage in order to proceed with the development of an intervention project. This activity turned out to be very important not only from the point of view of the recovery of the architectural and artistic heritage but also because the city's economy is based primarily on tourism. The closure of one of the most important monuments of Mantova has led to a significant and alarming decline in the government income.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Clinical practice and research are frequently seen as two worlds apart, in psychiatry as in the vast majority of medical specialties. In order to bridge the gap between them, economic founds and grants are required, not always easy to obtain. In this contribution we report the birth of the Association for Research in Psychiatry (ARPSY) and its main activities. ARPSY was born in May 2016 thanks to a research prize assigned to dr. Giorgio Mattei by the eight Rotary Clubs of the Province of Modena, Italy (Rotary Club Modena, Mirandola, Carpi, Sassuolo, Vignola Castelfranco Bazzano, Frignano, Modena L.A. Muratori, Castelvetro di Modena Terra dei Rangoni, that altogether make up the so-called “Ghirlandina Group”). Aim of the association is to promote mental health among students and trainees, mental health professionals, patients and their families, and among the general population by means of fund raising, in order to finance research projects, clinical interventions and educational activities.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

The present Special Issue of The Open Civil Engineering Journal collects a selection of extended, reviewed and revised papers presented at the 1st FIMM French-Italian Meeting on Masonry, held in Marseille, France, from 24 to 25 October 2013. The organizers of the meeting were Prof. F. Lebon, Université d'Aix-Marseille Laboratoire de Mécanique et d'Acoustique (FR), and Prof E. Sacco, Università di Cassino e del Lazio Meridionale (IT). The main aim was to exchange new ideas and show the state of the art of different research groups active in France and Italy, two countries at the top of the world for the research on masonry. Universities involved were: Université d'Aix-Marseille (FR), Université de Montpellier 2 (FR), Université de Limoges (FR), Politecnico di Milano (IT), Università di Roma la Sapienza (IT), Università di Ferrara (IT), Università di Cassino e del Lazio Meridionale (IT). A Scopus enquire with keyword “masonry” ordered by country shows 1609 records for Italy and 274 for France, with a percentage contribution respectively of 12.5% and 2.1% on the global scientific production, putting thus in evidence the importance of a tight interaction between French and Italian research groups. After the success of the first edition, the 2nd FIMM French-Italian Meeting on Masonry, will take place in Milan, Italy, from 30 to 31 October 2014. The special issue collects three papers. Fouchal et al. [1] present an evolution of the interface model originally presented by Rekik and Lebon, including cracks and roughness, with a comparison with experimental data on specimens subjected to shear tests. In the second paper, Tralli et al. [2] report a comprehensive state of the art on the cutting edge numerical research devoted to masonry vaults. Finally, Addessi et al. [3] review some advanced homogenization, micro- and macro-modelling strategies suitable for the analysis of masonry in the inelastic range. I wish to thank all the authors for their valuable contributions. All manuscripts underwent technical peer review. I therefore also wish to thank all the reviewers for their critical comments which undoubtedly improved the original technical value of all contributions.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Among natural hazards, mud volcanoes can damage property and infrastructures and affect hillslope evolution at different spatial and temporal scales. The results of 10-year-long multidisciplinary investigations performed on a Roman-age archaeological site, La Rovina di Montegibbio, are presented, showing a peculiar example of mutual interplay between human settlement and geological forcing in the mud-volcanic environment. The site (350 m a.s.l.) lies at the termination of the upper Secchia River catchment, near the town of Sassuolo (Modena Province). Here, a 4-km-long mud volcano belt borders the Apennines chain front, comprising one of the most prominent mud volcanoes of Italy ( Salsa di Montegibbio), and the still-active chain hinge tectonics gives origin to gas and oil seeps. Based on geological, geoarchaeological, palaeobotanical, geochemical, geophysical records and analytical data, we unravel the onset, the evolution and the abandonment of the settlement in relation to the existence of a previously unknown mud volcano, belonging to the larger Montegibbio mud volcano system. The damages affecting the Roman-age buildings record the ground deformations in the context of mud volcano tectonics. In particular, the pattern of faults set buried under the archaeological site is shown and compared with that of the main mud volcano conduit. At least two Roman-age eruptive episodes have been recorded, whose ejected muds are geochemically characterized. The first recorded eruption must be regarded as the reason for the initial location and function of the sacred ancient settlement. The final site abandonment was because of subsequent severe ground deformations affecting the hillslope as a consequence of mud volcano activity.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article analyzes Suzuki Tadashi’s version of Euripides’ The Trojan Women, staged multiple times during the past forty years. While this cross-cultural production carries specific socio-cultural signs and juxtaposes different traditional Japanese styles (Noh, Kabuki, and Shingeki), it aims to create a third object that does not belong specifically to any of these traditions but is composed of the sum of their specificities. It argues that The Trojan Women was created by Suzuki and his company as a response to the state of culture and society in Japan during the 1970s, breaking with old and new fashions in an effort to revitalize Japanese contemporary theatre. Offering a socio-cultural analysis and drawing on the writings of Michael Bakhtin and Pierre Bourdieu, it sheds light on Suzuki’s humanistic quest for a universalism pursued through the re-discovery and transformation of traditional styles together with an appropriation of Western texts. Lorenzo Montanini is a theatre director whose work investigates the boundaries of theatre and live performance in a multicultural context. He has taught for more than fifteen years in universities in Italy, including RomaTre, Università di Macerata, and Università l’Orientale di Napoli.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The occurrence and the history of Neotropical mammal specimens in the collections of naturalistic museums in Rome, Italy, and their scientific utilization is here reviewed. These specimens belong to several scientific expeditions made after the discovery of the new Continent. The oldest specimens date back to the famous Museum of Athanasius Kircher at the Collegio Romano (1651) and to the Museo Zoologico della Università di Roma that was established inside the University of the Pontificial State (Archigymnasium) (1823). Many of these early specimens are now lost due to the complex history of Roman scientific museology, but some specimens are now available mainly in two institutions, the Museo Civico di Zoologia (established in 1932) and the Museo di Anatomia Comparata “Battista Grassi” of “Sapienza” University of Rome (1935). Among the numerous specimens, is noteworthy the presence of a hairy long-nosed armadillo, Dasypus pilosus, the first record in an Italian zoological collection and the 26th known specimen of this species in world museums. More recently, some Roman researchers have maintained a scientific interest for Neotropical mammals, including primates, with collaboration with South American mammalogists. A greater historical knowledge of scientific activities concerning the work of Italians researchers on Neotropical biodiversity should be pursued.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was a battlefield that, although it developed nationally, had a scope and participation that crossed the borders of Spain. The rebel side enjoyed the help of two foreign powers in challenging the Second Republic: Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. It would be precisely the latter that would invest a greater economic and logistical effort, due to how Mussolini saw in Spain a possible Mediterranean ally, one akin to his model of Italian fascism. The present investigation attempts to discover how the enemy – in this case the Republican side – was represented in the school textbooks of the last years of the Duce's dictatorship in Italy. The texts were consulted in the Centro di documentazione e ricerca sulla storia del libro scolastico e della letteratura per l’infanza - Museo Paolo e Ornella Ricca of the Università degli Studi di Macerata (Italy). The results show how the school manuals of the time, in subjects such as history, readings, geography or patriotic teachings, reflected an image of the republican side associated with tyranny, demonizing their intervention in the warlike conflict with narratives that exalt violence and anti-Catholicism and identifying them with Soviet communism and anarchy.

Abstracttitle SUMMARY /title We present here the general catalogue and the website of the mathematical models found in the Italian universities of Catania, Messina, Bari, Naples, Rome, Florence, Bologna, Modena, Ferrara, Parma, Pavia, Milan, Padua, Turin and Genoa. For the most part they consist of old models published by the firms Ludwig Brill in Darmstadt, Martin Schilling in Halle an der Saale (later Leipzig), by H. Wiener for G. B. Teubner in Leipzig or belonging to the Collections Charles Muret published by Charles Delagrave in Paris. Other models were produced by different firms. A small number were even produced in Italy at the laboratories annexed to universities and, among these we also include the reproduction created in Florence by Luigi Campedelli in the 1950s with the support of the Unione Matematica Italiana. The research on the models (almost all of which are accompanied by the relevant images) can be carried out principally on the basis of the following criteria: Name of model - Catalogue - Material - Year of publication - Designer - Builder - Publisher - Location. The address of the mirrored web sites are: www.dmi.unisa.it/people/palladino/modelli and www.dma.unina. it/~nicla.palladino/catalogo.

The aim of this paper is the revision and redocumentation of Ostrea (Gigantostrea) gigantica Solander var. oligoplana Sacco, 1897, Ostrea (Ostrea) isseli n. denom. Rovereto, 1897, and Ostrea (Ostrea) isseli n. denom. var. elongata Rovereto, 1897. These taxa are from the Oligocene strata of the Molare Formation (Tertiary Piedmont Basin, southern Piedmont - central Liguria, NW Italy). The syntypes of O. (G.) gigantica var. oligoplana are in the "Collezione Bellardi e Sacco", at the Museo Regionale di Scienze Naturali di Torino; the syntypes of O. (O.) isseli and O. (O.) isseli var. elongata are in the "Collezione BTP" (BTP Collection, at the Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, dell'Ambiente e della Vita - DISTAV - of the Università di Genova). The var. oligoplana is here moved to the species rank and allocated to the genus Pycnodonte Fischer von Waldheim, 1835. O. (O.) isseli and O. (O.) isseli var. elongata are recognized as junior synonyms of the Sacco's taxon. Rovereto (1897) compared his new species with Ostrea subgigantea Raulin & Delbos, 1855, a poorly known taxon, that is here figured for the first time and shown to represent a species different from P. oligoplana (Sacco, 1897).

Abstract. The region of central and eastern Europe is an area characterised by a relatively high seismic risk. Since 2001, to monitor the seismicity of this area, the OGS (Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale) in Italy, the Agencija Republike Slovenije za Okolje (ARSO) in Slovenia, the Zentralanstalt für Meteorologie und Geodynamik (ZAMG) in Austria, and the Università di Trieste (UniTS) have cooperated in real-time seismological data exchange. In 2014 OGS, ARSO, ZAMG and UniTS created a cooperative network named the Central and Eastern European Earthquake Research Network (CE3RN), and teamed up with the University of Naples Federico II, Italy, to implement an earthquake early warning system based on the existing networks. Since May 2014, the earthquake early warning system (EEWS) given by the integration of the PRESTo (PRobability and Evolutionary early warning SysTem) alert management platform and the CE3RN accelerometric stations has been under real-time testing in order to assess the system's performance. This work presents a preliminary analysis of the EEWS performance carried out by playing back real strong motion recordings for the 1976 Friuli earthquake (MW= 6.5). Then, the results of the first 6 months of real-time testing of the EEWS are presented and discussed.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This focus group took place at the Università di Napoli ‘L'Orientale’ and was structured around recent female migration patterns in the south of Italy. The discussion included academics, artists, and care workers. The condition of women migrants was seen as one of precarity in the two main contexts we discussed: work and places of encounter. In an effort to move away from the purely material dimension of migration and deal with its emotional and creative sides, many facets of the question of being away from home and creating a new home were fleshed out: expectations, defence mechanisms, nostalgia, stereotyping, racism, and multi-culturalism. Participants raised a wide range of issues and proposed different perspectives which also point to larger tensions and challenges in gender and race relations.

AbstractFerro-ferri-hornblende is a new member of the amphibole supergroup (IMA-CNMNC 2015-054). It has been found in a rock specimen from the historical collection of Leandro De Magistris, which was collected at the Traversella mine (Val Chiusella, Ivrea, Piemonte, Italy). The specimen was catalogued as ‘speziaite', and contains a wide range of amphibole compositions from tremolite/actinolite to magnesio-hastingsite. The end-member formula of ferro-ferri-hornblende is A□BCa2c(Fe+Fe3+)T(Si7Al) O22W(OH)2 , which requires SiO2 43.41, Al2O3 5.26, FeO 29.66, Fe2O3 8.24 CaO 11.57, H2O 1.86, total 100.00 wt.%. The empirical formula derived from electron microprobe analysis and single-crystal structure refinement for the holotype crystal is A(Na0.10K0.13) Σ=0.23B(Ca 1.93Na0.07)Σ=2.00C(Mg1.16Fe2+3.21Mn0.O6Fe3+0.45 Al0.12Ti 0.01)Σ=5.01T(Si7.26Al0. 74)Σ=8.00 O22W(OH1.89F0.01C10.10)Σ=2.00- Ferro-ferri-hornblende is biaxial (-), with α = 1.697(2), P = 1 .722(5), γ = 1.726(5) and 2V (meas.) = 35.7(1.4)°, 2V (calc.) = 43.1°. The unit-cell parameters are a = 9.9307(5), b = 18.2232(10), c = 5.3190(3) Å, β = 104.857(1)°, V= 930.40 (9) Å3, Z= 2, space group C2/m. The a:b:c ratio is 0.545:1:0.292. The strongest eight reflections in the powder X-ray pattern [d values (in Å), I, (hkl)] are: 8.493, 100, (110); 2.728, 69, (151); 3.151, 47, (310); 2.555, 37, (); 2.615, 32, (061); 2.359, 28, (); 3.406, 26, (131); 2.180, 25, (261).

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The five books under review represent some of the recent achievements of Italian historiography of the early modern period. The gradual opening of Inquisitional archives in the 1990s and the growing sophistication of historical analysis of Inquisitorial documents have expanded dramatically our knowledge of and familiarity with the institutional and legal histories of the Inquisition and of the operation of justice in the Italian peninsula. One result of this is that the earlier and innovative work of Carlo Ginzburg in Inquisitorial archives has come under scrutiny. The books under review present a new view of the functioning of the Italian Inquisition, and by so doing shed new light on issues of authority and power in early modern Italy. Implicitly, the books under review also posit themselves against microstoria and address the larger working of power over long periods of time.

ISSN 0804–4643 Tumors are believed to arise as a result of an accumulation of mutations in critical genes involved in the control of cell proliferation. Thyroid neoplasms represent a good model for studying the role of these mutations in epithelial cell multistep carcinogenesis because they comprise a broad spectrum of lesions with different degrees of malignancy. Recent reports have described the involvement of specific genetic alterations in different types of thyroid neoplasms. Papillary carcinomas are characterized by the activation of the receptor tyrosine kinases RET and TRK-A proto-oncogenes. Ras point mutations are frequently observed in tumors with follicular histology and a high prevalence of p53 point mutations have been found in anaplastic carcinomas. A definition of molecular defects characterizing thyroid tumors will be helpful in establishing sensitive and specific detection strategies and, in addition, to define genetic and environmental factors important for their pathogenesis.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Italian scholars have demonstrated growing interest in immigrants' political engagement. Most studies have focused on associationism and conventional forms of political participation, while little research has investigated their unconventional involvement. Additionally, in the context of urban conflicts, they have been assumed as passive political actors, or at least this can be deduced from the scarce attention dedicated to them. The paper aims to question this interpretation, while at the same time contributing to research on immigrants' unconventional engagement, through an examination of two conflicts that exploded in north-eastern Italy. In particular, the following questions will be addressed: what shapes can immigrants' political engagement take? How does it articulate with contentious dynamics? Can any form of recognition emerge from it? In order to answer these questions, evi- dence will be drawn from a research carried out in the cities of Modena and Verona, between 2008 and 2010. The analysis will build on the theoretical perspective by Dancygier (2010) to then criticise its scarce dynamicity with respect to a pragmatic approach. Contentious dynamics will be inspected alongside their articulation with immigrants' political engagement. This will provide empirical material to test the key hypothesis by Dancygier, according to whom it is power which mainly contributes to the emergence of native-immigrants conflicts, and the lack of it which anticipates the emergence of immigrants-state actors conflicts. The analysis will then be taken further to explore the type of ‘recognition' (Fraser and Honneth 2007) that can derive from urban conflicts.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This paper describes two new apparatuses recently developed at the Università di Napoli Federico II (Italy) in order to test soils under unsaturated conditions. The related experimental procedures and the first results obtained on a dynamically compacted silty sand are also discussed. The devices mentioned are a Bishop and Wesley stress-path cell and a Wissa oedometer, modified to control matric suction and to measure all the stress-strain variables relevant to unsaturated soil mechanics. Specific experimental procedures were established to perform tests under general conditions and were carefully verified during several tests. Using the triaxial cell, isotropic and anisotropic compression stages were carried out under constant suction levels of 0, 100, 200, and 300 kPa. Furthermore, two deviator stages were performed following different stress paths and water drainage conditions. Using the oedometer, an additional suction level (400 kPa) was investigated during compression tests driven up to 5 MPa of vertical net stress (sigmav - ua). This research is a part of a major project in progress at the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Geotecnica of Naples; it is aimed at the experimental analysis of the behaviour of several dynamically compacted soils and at the numerical modelling of boundary problems related to earth structures.Key words: unsaturated soils, equipment layout, silty sand, matric suction.

In this article, Poonam M. Ganglani investigates how the preserved manuscripts in the Lord Chamberlain's archives of John Hart's stage version of Lady Chatterley's Lover in 1961 reflect the social and theatrical landscape of the times. The notion of the Lord Chamberlain as a custodian of morals, the dangerous power attributed to stage semiotics, and the response to sexual impropriety on stage are among the areas discussed. The Lord Chamberlain's correspondence files offer the only significant glimpse into this theatrical adaptation of Lawrence's novel, as into other unpublished plays of the time; this article also investigates the ways in which the Lord Chamberlain's archives in the British Library, London, serve as a unique and valuable tool for the post-war British theatre historiographer in research related to such unpublished plays. Poonam M. Ganglani is a postgraduate under the Mundus Masters ‘Crossways in European Humanities’ international study programme, having studied in three European universities over two years: the Université de Perpignan Via Domitia in France, the University of Sheffield in England, and the Università degli studi di Bergamo in Italy.

ISSN 0804–4643 Our previous studies indicate the Sertoli cell as a target for thyroid hormone action at testis level. In the present study we evaluated the effect of thyroid hormone on Sertoli cell oxidative capacity measured by specific cytochrome oxidase (COX) activity and intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content. Sertoli cells were isolated from 21-day-old rats. Hypothyroidism, induced from the day of birth by administration of 0.025% methimazole, was characterized by a severe delay of body and testis growth and resulted in a lower COX activity (−40%, p ≥ 0.01) and a lower ATP content (−35%, p ≥ 0.01) by isolated Sertoli cells. Administration of triiodothyronine (10 μg/100 g body wt on alternate days) to hypothryoid rats improved body and testis growth and restored both COX activity and ATP content. The presence of high-affinity, low-capacity binding sites for triiodothyronine in Sertoli cell mitochondria also was demonstrated. This study, unlike that carried out on the whole testis from adult rats, demonstrates that thyroid hormone affects the energy metabolism of Sertoli cells from midpubertal rat testes.

Present address and address for reprint requests: Istituto di Scienze Farmacologiche, via Balzaretti 9, Università di Milano, Milano 20133, Italy. The role of sensory afferent information from the gills of Amia calva in cardiovascular and ventilatory control was investigated by bilateral branchial denervation and pseudobranch ablation. Aquatic hypoxia or 1 mg of sodium cyanide (NaCN) in the water flowing over the gills stimulated bradycardia, and gill and air ventilation in sham-operated fish. Sodium cyanide, noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (A) infusion into the dorsal aorta increased gill ventilation, and NA and A infusion also stimulated tachycardia and an increase in blood pressure. Following denervation and pseudobranch ablation, O2 consumption (V·OO2), airbreathing frequency (fAB) and arterial O2 tension (PaOO2) declined, and circulating NA levels increased, as compared with sham-operated fish. Cardiovascular and air-breathing responses to hypoxia were abolished and gill ventilatory responses attenuated. All ventilatory and cardiovascular responses to NaCN were abolished and gill ventilatory responses to NA and A were attenuated in animals following denervation and pseudobranch ablation. These results demonstrate that O2-sensitive chemoreceptors in the gills and pseudobranch control reflex bradycardia and air-breathing responses in Amia, but that gill ventilatory responses to hypoxia, NA and A are partially mediated by extrabranchial mechanisms. Plasma NA levels increased during hypoxia in shamoperated and denervated animals, indicating that circulating NA may have mediated gill ventilatory responses in denervated animals.

Eur J Endocrinol 1994;130:220–3. ISSN 0804–4643 In order to investigate sympathoadrenal activity in hypothyroidism we studied the cardiovascular and catecholamine responses to thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) infusion in nine hypothyroid patients before and during adequate therapy and in seven healthy subjects. We evaluated mean arterial pressure, heart rate, plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine levels after TRH administration (200 μg iv) in the three groups. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate and plasma epinephrine levels were not different in the three groups and did not change after TRH administration. Hypothyroid subjects showed increased plasma norepinephrine levels (1.48 ± 0.15 nmol/l), which were reduced after euthyroidism was reached (0.84 ± 0.11 nmol/l) (p < 0.01). An exaggerated response of norepinephrine to TRH was observed in hypothyroid patients before therapy (incremental peak (IP) = 0.59 ± 0.13 nmol/l) but not in hypothyroid patients during therapy (IP = 0.19 ± 0.02 nmol/l p < 0.02) or in the control group (IP = 0.15 ± 0.04 nmol/l; p < 0.05). This study indicated that TRH administration is able to influence the sympathetic activity during hypothyroidism in humans. A Velardo.

Eur J Endocrinol 1994;131:113–19. ISSN 0804–4643 In the present study we have evaluated the use of pretibial ultrasound for the diagnosis of pretibial myxedema (PTM). We studied 76 patients, 58 with Graves' disease, 13 with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and five with idiopathic hypothyroidism. Thirty-two normal subjects were also studied as controls. Sixty-four patients had associated ophthalmopathy. The ultrasound scanner was equipped with 10-and 13-MHz probes. Punch biopsies were carried out in 11 patients and tissue sections examined on a light microscope. On clinical examination 21 patients (28%) had suspected PTM. By ultrasound, we measured the thickness of dermis and subcutaneous tissue (Dl) and that including only deeper dermis (D2) in normal subjects to define the echographic parameters of normal pretibial skin. We then found increased skin thickness in 25 patients (33%), with mean Dl and D2 values significantly higher than those measured in controls (p < 0.00001). The echographic study was positive in 20 patients with ophthalmopathy (31%). Ultrasound showed increased skin thickness in 16 of 21 patients (76%) with clinically suspected PTM. Histopathological findings confirmed the presence of PTM in all the patients who underwent pretibial skin biopsy. We believe that the measurement of pretibial skin thickness by ultrasound may be useful for revealing the presence of PTM.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Background:Hip Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread disease characterized by pain and functional impairment, which, particularly in the elderly, may compromise overall health and quality of life. In the last decades, Intra-articular (I.a.) injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) gained more space among the conservative treatment of OA because of their beneficial effects and positive outcomes without relevant complications. (1,2). An innovative and patented formulation containing hybrid cooperative complexes of sodium hyaluronate 2.4% + sodium chondroitin non-sulfated 1.6% of biotechnological origin (HA-SC) has been recently developed for the I.a. treatment of hip OA and evaluated in a pilot study (3).Objectives:1) Primary aim: Evaluation of the safety of HA-SC in the treatment of symptomatic hip OA; 2) Secondary aim: Evaluation of the efficacy of HA-SC in terms of pain reduction (VAS) and function improvement (Lequesne) of the affected hip joint.Methods:This is a pilot, multicentric, open, prospective study. The following inclusion criteria were established: Patients (both genders) aged ≥ 40 years suffering for primary hip OA confirmed by X-Ray; Grade I-II-III according to K&L grading scale; Basal VAS pain at the target hip > 40 mm; Failure of at least two lines of conservative treatments. All patients underwent a single I.a. hip injection of a 3mL vial of HA-SC and followed-up for six months.Results:48 patients have been enrolled and completed the study. The treatment was generally well-tolerated, with only ten patients out of 48 (20.8%) reporting local effects mainly consisting of injection site pain and arthralgia localized in the treated area. All these patients completed the study. The treatment with HA-SC was associated with a statistically significant decrease of VAS scale from a basal value of 67.5 (mean) to 22.8 (mean, p<0.0001) at the end of the observation period at six months, with a statistically significant decrease at seven days of follow-up evaluation (29.3, mean, p<0.0001). The mean Lequesne’s Index total score after the single injection of HA-SC decreased from a baseline value of 10.4 (mean) to 5.1 (mean, p<0.0001) at six months. The decrease was marked and significant also at any of the other evaluated time point (p<0.0001).Conclusion:A single I.a. injection of the innovative formulation containing hybrid cooperative complexes of sodium hyaluronate + sodium chondroitin non-sulfated (HA-SC) showed to be well tolerated and safe in the treatment of symptomatic hip OA. A rapid and significant decrease in hip pain (VAS) and Lequesne’s Index was also observed starting immediately after the I.a. injection and lasting until the end of the follow-up period. However, conservative treatment of hip OA is still challenging. This new formulation could represent a promising, long-lasting, and effective I.a. treatment.References:[1]Papalia R. et al. J. Biol.

Opioid modulation of the gamma-aminobutyric acid-controlled inhibition of exercise-stimulated growth hormone and prolactin secretion in normal men. Eur J Endocrinol 1994;131:50–5. ISSN 0804–4643 The possible involvement of endogenous opioids in the gamma-aminobutyric acid-controlled (GABAergic) inhibition of growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) during physical exercise was evaluated in normal men. After fasting overnight, seven subjects were tested on four mornings at least 1 week apart. Exercise was performed on a bicycle ergometer. The workload was gradually increased at 3-min intervals until exhaustion and lasted about 15 min in all subjects. Tests were carried out under administration of placebo, the opioid antagonist naloxone (10 mg as an iv bolus injection), the GABAergic agonist sodium valproate (600 mg in three divided doses orally) or naloxone plus sodium valproate. During exercise, plasma GH and PRL levels rose 5.5- and 1.9-fold, respectively. The administration of naloxone did not modify, whereas sodium valproate significantly reduced the plasma GH and PRL rise during exercise. In the presence of sodium valproate, GH and PRL levels rose 3- and 1.5-fold, respectively, in response to exercise. When naloxone was given together with sodium valproate, both GH and PRL responses to exercise were abolished completely. These data suggest the involvement of a GABAergic mechanism in the regulation of GH and PRL responses to physical exercise in men. Furthermore, the data argue against a role of naloxone-sensitive endogenous opioids in the control of these hormonal responses to exercise, whereas they suggest a modulation by opioids of the GABAergic inhibitory action.

Follow-up study on the effects of thyroid hormone administration on androgen metabolism of peripubertal rat sertoli cells. Eur J Endocrinol 1995;132:236–41. ISSN 0804–4643 The inhibitory effect of triiodothyronine (T3) given in early postnatal life on Sertoli cell proliferative activity, leading to their precocious terminal differentiation, has been demonstrated previously. However, data concerning the role of thyroid hormone on androgen metabolism of Sertoli cells during the same period are still lacking. In this study we performed a time-course investigation on the effects of T3 treatment on testosterone metabolism in Sertoli cells isolated from 2-, 3- and 4-weeks-old euthyroid rats. Triiodothyronine (3 μg/100 g body wt) was given ip., during the last week prior to sacrifice. Sertoli cells from all animal groups initially were cultured under basal conditions during the first 24 h and subsequently in the presence of testosterone (0.5 μmol/l) with or without T3 (1 nmol/l) for an additional 24 h. This treatment given to 2-week-old animals resulted in reduced testicular growth. As far as androgen metabolism is concerned, T3 in vivo and in vitro treatment in 2- and 3-week-old animals induced a lowering of dihydrotestosterone ± 3α-diol with an enhancement of the two other 5α-reduced androgens. The effect was much less pronounced in the oldest group. In both 2-and 3-week-old treated rats a marked reduction of oestradiol was observed, which indicates an inhibition of aromatase activity, mainly in younger animals. This enzyme has been reported to be extremely active in Sertoli cells of rats (of the same strain) between the age of 5 and 20 days, but it decreases rapidly thereafter. The results suggest that T3 given in early postnatal life could modify directly the androgen metabolism in Sertoli cells.

Effect of triiodothyronine administration on estrogen receptor contents in peripuberal Sertoli cells. Eur J Endocrinol 1996:134:633–8. ISSN 0804–4643 The effects of thyroid hormone on androgen metabolism in peripuberal Sertoli cells through the inhibition of estradiol production have been reported previously. It was our intention to investigate further the possible role of thyroid hormone on the interaction between testicular steroids and Sertoli cells by analyzing the effects of triiodothyronine (T3) on estrogen receptor content in 2-, 3- and 4week-old euthyroid rats. Triiodothyronine treatment (3 μg/100 body wt per day) given during the last week prior to sacrifice resulted in reduced testicular growth in 2-week-old animals. Sertoli cells from all groups were cultured initially under basal conditions for the first 24 h and subsequently in the presence of testosterone and/or T3 for the additional 24 h. The in vitro addition of T3 induced a decrease of estrogen receptors (ERs) in 2- and 3-week-old animals that appeared more pronounced especially in the presence of T3 and testosterone. When T3 was tested in vivo we noticed that the decrease of ER content was even greater in all three groups under the in vitro influence of both T3 and testosterone. In 3-week-old animals a simultaneous assay of ERs in both nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments was performed. The ER concentrations in the nucleus were closely related to those of the cytoplasm. The in vivo administration of T3 was responsible for a greater decrease of ERs in the nucleus than in the cytosol. On the basis of these results, and in agreement with our previous data, we speculate that the effect of T3 in the maturational events of Sertoli cells could involve both estradiol production and ER content.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Object Despite their benign histological appearance, craniopharyngiomas can be considered a challenge for the neurosurgeon and a possible source of poor prognosis for the patient. With the widespread use of the endoscope in endonasal surgery, this route has been proposed over the past decade as an alternative technique for the removal of craniopharyngiomas. Methods The authors retrospectively analyzed data from a series of 103 patients who underwent the endoscopic endonasal approach at two institutions (Division of Neurosurgery of the Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, Naples, Italy, and Division of Neurosurgery of the Bellaria Hospital, Bologna, Italy), between January 1997 and December 2012, for the removal of infra- and/or supradiaphragmatic craniopharyngiomas. Twenty-nine patients (28.2%) had previously been surgically treated. Results The authors achieved overall gross-total removal in 68.9% of the cases: 78.9% in purely infradiaphragmatic lesions and 66.3% in lesions involving the supradiaphragmatic space. Among lesions previously treated surgically, the gross-total removal rate was 62.1%. The overall improvement rate in visual disturbances was 74.7%, whereas worsening occurred in 2.5%. No new postoperative defect was noted. Worsening of the anterior pituitary function was reported in 46.2% of patients overall, and there were 38 new cases (48.1% of 79) of postoperative diabetes insipidus. The most common complication was postoperative CSF leakage; the overall rate was 14.6%, and it diminished to 4% in the last 25 procedures, thanks to improvement in reconstruction techniques. The mortality rate was 1.9%, with a mean follow-up duration of 48 months (range 3–246 months). Conclusions The endoscopic endonasal approach has become a valid surgical technique for the management of craniopharyngiomas. It provides an excellent corridor to infra- and supradiaphragmatic midline craniopharyngiomas, including the management of lesions extending into the third ventricle chamber. Even though indications for this approach are rigorously lesion based, the data in this study confirm its effectiveness in a large patient series.

Eur J Endocrinol 1994;130:97–106. ISSN 0804–4643 We performed an immunohistochemical study on rat brain and liver during fetal and neonatal life using rabbit antipeptide polyclonal antibodies able to recognize each thyroid hormone receptor (TR) isoform. The expression of TR alpha-1, alpha-2 and beta-1 proteins from 14 days of gestation to 21 days after birth was evaluated. Frozen tissues from 14 (F14), 17 (F17) and 21 (F21)-day-old fetuses and from 5 (N5), 16 (N16) and 21 (N21)-day old newborn rats were stained with anti-TR antibodies using an avidin-biotin-peroxidase system. The antipeptide antibodies utilized in the present study were characterized previously: alpha-144 antibody recognizes both TR alpha-1 and alpha-2; alpha-2-431 antibody is specific for TR variant alpha-2, and beta-62 antibody specifically reacts with the TR beta-1 isoform. The expression of TR alpha-1 was deduced by comparing the staining obtained with alpha-144 and alpha-2-431 antibodies. We demonstrated that each TR isoform is expressed in rat brain from 14 days of gestation and that the alpha isoform was predominant in the early stage. The three TR isoforms were expressed in both neural cell nuclei and in glial cell nuclei. As far as the liver is concerned, at F14 the expression of TR isoforms was weaker in hepatocytes when, on the contrary, TR alpha was clearly detected in hematopoietic cells. The expression of TRs in hepatocytes becomes evident later. The data that we obtained, although not quantitative, emphasize the presence of each TR isoform in brain and liver from 14 days of fetal rat life.

Eur J Endocrinol 1996;134:431–6. ISSN 0804–4643 We evaluated gonadal function in 63 patients with testicular cancer both within 1 month of unilateral orchiectomy before further treatment (pretreatment) and 3 years after treatment discontinuation (post-treatment). Sixteen patients underwent orchiectomy alone (group 1), nine patients underwent infradiaphragmatic radiotherapy (group 2) and 28 patients received four cycles (group 3) and 10 patients received six cycles (group 4) of cisplatin-based chemotherapy (cisplatin, vinblastine and bleomycin—PVB, or cisplatin, etoposide and bleomycin—PEB), Pretreatment semen analyses showed reduced sperm cell density, motility and impaired morphology of spermatozoa in all four groups (p>0.05). At the same time elevated estradiol and decreased serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in 28.5% of subjects were correlated with high serum beta human chorionic gonadotropin concentrations. Semen analyses revealed the lowest values for all parameters after infradiaphragmatic radiotherapy. Sperm cell count, motility and morphology were significantly better in patients treated with orchiectomy alone or with a conventional dose of chemotherapy than in the groups that received radiotherapy or high doses of chemotherapy (p < 0.05). We also observed a correlation between serum FSH values and sperm cell density for both pretreatment and post-treatment in every group of patients (p<0.05). Persistent subclinical Leydig cell dysfunction in groups treated with radiotherapy or high doses of chemotherapy was expressed by increased basal luteinizing hormone levels (78% of patients in group 2 vs 60% of patients in group 4) (p < 0.05) and by normal testosterone serum values (89% of patients in group 2 vs 80% of patients in group 4). Spermatogenesis and Leydig cell function are, therefore, persistently impaired in the majority of testicular cancer patients treated with radiotherapy or with more intensive chemotherapy.

The paper presents a 17th-century translation of the Satyricon into Italian transmitted in manuscript. The translation is anonymous and presumably was intended for the illegal market of clandestine manuscripts. Material evidence shows that the translation actually circulated across time and among popular readers. The comparison between the Italian translation and 16th – and 17th editions of Petronius has revealed that the translator started his work on the obsolete text of the excerpta brevia (that is, the Satyricon as published before1575) and then shifted to the the excerpta longiora tradition, likely using the Satyricon edition published in 1601 (reprinted in 1608). Such a mixture of source texts proves the translator’s total lack of philological accuracy. In addition, he made several translation errors. However, surprisingly enough, the Italian translation underpins an excellent work of textual criticism on Petronius’ text. The suggested explanation is that the translator or a later reviser emendated the translation following a highly specialised commentary.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The present work opens with an acknowledgement to the research activity performed by Luciana Naldini while affiliated at the Università degli Studi di Sassari (Italy), in particular towards gold complexes and clusters, as a tribute to her outstanding figure in a time and a society where being a woman in science was rather difficult, hoping her achievements could be of inspiration to young female chemists in pursuing their careers against the many hurdles they may encounter. Naldini’s findings will be a key to introduce the most recent results in this field, showing how the chemistry of gold compounds has changed throughout the years, to reach levels of complexity and elegance that were once unimagined. The study of gold complexes and clusters with various phosphine ligands was Naldini’s main field of research because of the potential application of these species in diverse research areas including electronics, catalysis, and medicine. As the conclusion of a vital period of study, here we report Naldini’s last results on a hexanuclear cationic gold cluster, [(PPh3)6Au6(OH)2]2+, having a chair conformation, and on the assumption, supported by experimental data, that it comprises two hydroxyl groups. This contribution, within the fascinating field of inorganic chemistry, provides the intuition of how a simple electron counting may lead to predictable species of yet unknown molecular architectures and formulation, nowadays suggesting interesting opportunities to tune the electronic structures of similar and higher nuclearity species thanks to new spectroscopic and analytical approaches and software facilities. After several decades since Naldini’s exceptional work, the chemistry of the gold cluster has reached a considerable degree of complexity, dealing with new, single-atom precise, materials possessing interesting physico-chemical properties, such as luminescence, chirality, or paramagnetic behavior. Here we will describe some of the most significant contributions.

Eur J Endocrinol 1996;134:568–75. ISSN 0804–4643 A high prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) has been described in Turner's syndrome (TS) but the extent of this association is controversial for the prevalence of thyroid autoantibody and the clinical impact of thyroid dysfunction. In this study we searched for thyroid disease and thyroid autoantibodies in patients with TS. Seventy-five unselected TS patients (age range 3–30 years) were studied. Sera were tested for thyroid hormones, thyrotropin (TSH), thyroglobulin (TG-ab) and thyroperoxidase (TPO-ab) antibodies. The TSH-receptor antibodies with thyroid-stimulating (TS-ab) or TSH-blocking activity (TSHB-ab) were measured in the IgG fraction using a bioassay. Ten out of 75 (13.3%) TS patients had AITD: eight had autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) (six with subclinical and two with overt hypothyroidism and one with euthyroidism) and one had Graves' disease. The prevalence of AITD increased significantly (p < 0.05) from the first (15%) to the third (30%) decade of life. The prevalence of TPO-ab and/or TG-ab (20%) was higher (p < 0.05) in TS than in age-matched female controls and increased from the first (15%) to the third (30%) decade of life. Clinical AITD was diagnosed in 46% of TS patients with TPO-ab and/or TG-ab. Thyroid-stimulating antibody was detected in the hyperthyroid patient, and TSHB-ab was found in one of eight patients with hypothyroid AT. It was concluded that: TS patients are at higher than average risk of developing AITD not only in adolescence and adult age but also in childhood; hypothyroidism, mainly subclinical, is the most frequent thyroid dysfunction; elevated TPO-ab and/or TG-ab alone do not imply thyroid dysfunction; TS-ab or TSHB-ab are always associated with thyroid dysfunction although most cases of autoimmune hypothyroidism are not due to the latter antibody.
