The Topography of Tears

by Rose-Lynn Fisher ...

“When you first view Rose-Lynn Fisher’s photographs, you might think you’re looking down at the world from an airplane, at dunes, skyscrapers or shorelines. In fact, you’re looking at her tears. . . . [There’s] poetry in the idea that our emotional terrain bears visual resemblance to the physical world; that our tears can look like the vistas we see out an airplane window. Fisher’s images are the ... Read more

L’alcaloide vegetale Voacamina esercita un effetto chemiosensibilizzante su cellule tumorali farmacoresistenti mediante l’induzione del processo autofagico

by Pasquale Lista ...

La farmaco-resistenza, dall’inglese “multidrug resistance”, rappresenta uno dei principali ostacoli durante la terapia anti-tumorale. Infatti le cellule tumorali spesso sviluppano tale resistenza esprimendo delle proteine di membrana che si comportano come pompe in grado di estrudere il chemioterapico, rendendo inefficace la terapia adottata. A tal proposito, la ricerca biomedica ha studiato tali ... Read more
