CHK1 as a Metabolic and Immunological Regulator: Implications for Cancer Therapy

Checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1), a key regulator of cell cycle checkpoints, plays a central role in the DNA damage response network, serving as a critical mediator that links DNA damage detection to DNA repair mechanisms. In recent years, several other cellular functions of CHK1 have gradually been discovered. As well as monitoring genomic integrity, CHK1 coordinates the timing of DNA replication with the availability of metabolic resources. This prevents unscheduled DNA synthesis from exceeding t...

Radicalismo e frammentazione politica negli Stati Uniti in prospettiva storica

The presidential elections of 2024 have contributed to write a new chapter of US History which has its roots in the political, social and cultural experience of the country. In order to analyze the current situation, this essay draws on history and on the historiography that has amply dealt with the periodic crises that have contributed to shape the US. Relying on the seminal work of prominent historians Richard Hofstadter and Robert Wiebe, the essay reviews the more recent works of historian...

Null Subjects in Non-Pro-Drop Languages: The Lens on French

The contrast between languages such as Italian that allow subjects of tensed sentences to be null (i.e., pro-drop languages) and those like French that do not (i.e., non-pro-drop languages) is a classic issue for comparative syntactic research. Nevertheless, while several studies have been dedicated to pro-drop languages, distinguishing across different types, subject omission in non-pro-drop languages is generally misjudged as a marginal or substandard phenomenon. However, a more careful exa...
