Trophic organization of the benthic communities off the South Italian coasts: A review with a modelistic approach.

Limited data are available about the coastal ecology of the Calabria region, in the southern Italy. As well, data about the levels of biodiversity and the structure of food webs in these environments are totally missing. However, considering the wide range of physical and ecological conditions distinguishing these ecosystems, a remarkable spread of biodiversity is expected.

A recombinant fragment antigen-binding (Fab) of trastuzumab displays low cytotoxic profile in adult human cardiomyocytes: first evidence and the key implication of FcγRIIA receptor.

Fragment crystallizable gamma receptors (FcγRs) mediate various cellular responses with significant cardiovascular implications. They contribute to the anticancer activity of trastuzumab (TRZ), a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that interferes with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), thereby blocking its physiological function in cardiac cells. This is responsible for cardiac complications that hamper TRZ clinical application.
