In this paper, we describe the ALTICORE (value added satellite ALTImetry in COastal REgions) initiative, a consortium aiming at providing high quality coastal altimetry over some European seas. Taking the Ligurian Sea in the NW Mediterranean as an example, which acts as a test zone for this work, we show the improvement in availability and quality of ENVISAT data, through our processing, when compared...
Acetone extract of Peucedanum nebrodense (Guss.) Strohl., a rare endemic species from the Madonie mountains (Sicily), was tested in vitro for its antimicrobial activity against bacterial reference strains and antiproliferative activity against K562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia), HL-60 (human leukemia) and L1210 (murine leukemia) cell lines. The acetone extract showed antiproliferative IC ...
Background: The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of IRFI 042, a novel dual vitamin E-like antioxidant, on nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation, TNF-α gene priming and on the release of the mature protein during endotoxin shock. Methods: Endotoxin shock was produced in male rats by a single intravenous (i.v.) injection of 20 mg kg -1 of Salmonella enteritidis lipopolysaccharide...
Background. In acute hypovolemic shock, a rapid systemic release of the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) contributes to vascular failure. Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is an ubiquitous rapid-response transcription factor involved in inflammatory reactions and exerts its effect by expressing cytokines, chemokines, and cell adhesion molecules. The purpose of this study was to evaluate...
