Abstract BACKGROUND The translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is an abundantly expressed found in a wide range of organisms from both the animal and plant kingdom. Initially described as growth‐related protein, knowledge biological actions TCTP has been recently extended to include calcium binding, regulation apoptosis, microtubules stabilization. This report describes expression, distribution, characterization human prostatic tissues cell lines. METHODS Samples were analyzed by...
This study focuses on two Mediterranean beech forests located in northern and southern Italy therefore subjected to different environmental conditions. The research goal was understand C storage the forest floor mineral soil major determinants. Relative (NF), (SF) found produce higher amounts of litterfall (4.3 vs. 2.5 Mg·ha−1) store less (~8 ~12 but more (~148 ~72 Mg·ha−1). Newly-shed litter NF had lower P (0.4 0.6 mg·g−1) N concentration (13 10 than SF. Despite its Mn (0.06 0.18 mg·g−1),...
Rye (Secale cereale L.) from Matese mountains is a local landrace cultivated in Southern Italy. To promote the benefits for mountain economy, we report on nutritional values (crude proteins, lipids, moisture, ash and total amino acids), metabolic traits (free acids, fatty acids bioactive organic compounds) mineral content of 'segale del Matese' seeds. Seeds were collected 2023 2024 at two altitudes (~1000 150 m a.s.l.); these analyzed, results compared. Average data sites proteins (9.6 g/100...
The human uterine mucosa of early pregnancy is largely populated by CD56(bright) natural killer (NK) cells (uterine (u) NK cells). specific functions these are still unknown, but their interaction and response to foetal trophoblasts thought be important for the establishment a successful pregnancy. study reported herein shows that uNK respond to, produce, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), cytokine highly expressed in placenta cyclic pregnant endometrium. Recombinant MIF reduced...
The translationally controlled tumor protein (TPT1, also known as TCTP) is a highly conserved, abundantly expressed found in mammals well wide range of other organisms both the animal and plant kingdom. Initially considered growth-related protein, later studies showed TPT1 endowed with multiple biological activities, including calcium binding. present study aimed to evaluate expression human placenta examine functional role binding homeostasis trophoblast cells. Samples were analyzed by...
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) from Valle Agricola is a legume cultivated in Southern Italy whose intake strictly linked to rural traditions. In order get new biochemical insight on this landrace and promote its consumption marketing, nutritional values (moisture content, total proteins, lipids, free amino acids) metabolic traits are deeply investigated. chickpea nutritionally rich proteins (19.70 g/100 g) essential acids (7.12 g; ~40% of total). Carbohydrates, identity was unraveled by means...
Here, we report the nutritional (crude proteins, total and free amino acids, fatty minerals) biochemical (protease inhibitors antioxidant enzymes) characterization of wild fennel seeds from 'Valle Agricola' (Caserta, Italy), typical local products used as a food flavouring preservative. The comparative analysis with commercial revealed higher activity considerable ability latter in preservation. In light this, both were added to minced pork meat evaluate effect treatment at 0, 1, 3 7 days....
