Endometrial prostaglandins (PGs) and the PGE2/PGF2alpha ratio play an important role in regulating the estrous cycle and establishment of pregnancy. The enzymes downstream of cyclooxygenase-2 may determine the PGE2/PGF2alpha ratio in the porcine uterus. Thus, we have cloned porcine PGF synthase (PGFS) and microsomal PGE synthase-1 (mPGES-1) and characterized their expression in porcine endometrium
Moving from some Italian case law the article analyses several aspect linked to the transfers of undertaking such as its legal notion (and its differences between the transfers of a plurality of goods), the right to raise a legal claim following the Italian civil procedure and the consequences of the violation of the information duty of the trade unions.
Activation of receptor tyrosine kinases needs tight control by tyrosine phosphatases to keep their normal function. In this study, we investigated the regulation of activation of the type III receptor tyrosine kinase KIT by protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type E (PTPRE). We found that PTPRE can associate with wild-type KIT and inhibit KIT activation in a dose-dependent manner, although the a
Author: Amanda Petersson Title: “Hi I’m kind of depressed” - An Ethnographic Study of Adolescents’ Interaction Concerning Mental Illness on the Internet [Translated title] Supervisor: Gabriella Scaramuzzino Assessor: Torbjörn Hjort The aim of this study has been to examine how adolescents interact concerning mental illness on the Internet. I have spent time on one of the largest Internet forums t
This paper analysis sexual scripts theory in relation to gay men courtship, love relationships, and casual sex. The aim is to understand how gay masculinity is evolving in the 21st Century. Previous research has reinforced the concept that gay men follow heterosexual masculinity and scripts in their relationships with other men. Here, analysing data from the most used gay dating app ‘Grindr’, we t
Aberrations in the GI-S transition have been observed in several malignancies, suggesting that cell cycle defects are linked to the activation of oncogenes and inactivation of suppressor genes involved in the transformation process. The frequency of GI/S aberrations in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has not been fully clarified. We have therefore analyzed the cyclin E content, using Western blot
The essay focuses on the workers’ privacy, as regulated in art. 4 of the Italian labour protection act (St. lav.) and in the new EU GDPR. The A. analyses the links between the two sets of rules and their combined effect. A specific attention is dedicated to the sanctions against the infringement of the provisions of the abovementioned art. 4. This topic is especially studied with regard to the pos
Background Smaller hippocampal volume has repeatedly been reported in schizophrenia patients Obstetric complications (OCs) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variation in schizophrenia susceptibility genes have independently been related to hippocampal volume We investigated putative independent and interaction effects of severe hypoxia-related OCs and variation in four hypoxia-regulated sch
Introduction: Apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 is the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its prevalence is unclear because earlier studies did not require biomarker evidence of amyloid β (Aβ) pathology. Methods: We included 3451 Aβ+ subjects (853 AD-type dementia, 1810 mild cognitive impairment, and 788 cognitively normal). Generalized estimating equation models were used to ass
Cyclin E and the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) are both important regulators of the G1 phase in the cell cycle. Overexpression of cyclin E and lost expression of Rb has previously been observed in breast tumours at frequencies of 10-50% and 20-30%, respectively. We explored the prognostic role of cyclin E and Rb in breast cancer patients randomised for tamoxifen (TAM), CMF (cyclophosphamide, metotre
