Liquid-liquid equilibria in binary solutions formed by [Pyridinium-Derived][F4B] ionic liquids and alkanols:new experimental data and validation of a multiparametric model for correlating LLE data

[EN]Experimental solubility data are presented for a set of binary systems composed of ionic liquids (IL) derived from pyridium, with the tetrafluoroborate anion, and normal alcohols ranging from ethanol to decanol, in the temperature interval of 275 420 K, at atmospheric pressure. For each case, the miscibility curve and the upper critical solubility temperature (UCST) values are presented. The effects of the ILs on the behavior of solutions with alkanols are analyzed, paying special attention to the pyridine derivatives, and considering a series of structural characteristics of the compounds involved.

Modifiche al protocollo di trasporto LTP per migliorarne le prestazioni in presenza di perdite elevate

La presente tesi si pone come obiettivo quello di analizzare il protocollo LTP (in particolare in ION) e proporre dei miglioramenti utili al caso in cui siano presenti perdite elevate. Piu in dettaglio, una prima parte introduttiva motiva l'inefficacia del TCP/IP in ambito interplanetario e introduce l'architettura DTN Bundle Protocol (Cap.1). La tesi prosegue con la descrizione delle specifiche del protocollo LTP (Cap.2), in particolar modo evidenziando come un bundle venga incapsulato in un blocco LTP, come questo sia successivamente diviso in tanti segmenti LTP e come questi vengano successivamente inviati con il protocollo UDP o con un protocollo analogo. Viene quindi presentata un'approfondita analisi delle penalizzazioni dovute alle perdite dei segmenti LTP, sia di tipo dati che di segnalazione (Cap. 3). Quest'analisi permette di dimostrare la criticita degli effetti delle perdite, in particolare per quello che riguarda i segmenti LTP di segnalazione. Mentre in presenza di perdite basse tali effetti hanno in media un impatto minimo sul tempo di consegna di un blocco LTP (quindi del bundle in esso contenuto), in quanto avvengono raramente, in presenza di perdite elevate rappresentano un collo di bottiglia per il tempo di consegna di un blocco LTP. A tal proposito sono state proposte alcune modifiche che permettono di migliorare le prestazioni di LTP (Cap. 4) compatibilmente con le specifiche RFC in modo da garantire l'interoperabilita con le diverse implementazioni del protocollo. Successivamente nel Cap. 5 viene mostrato come sono state implementate le modifiche proposte in ION 3.4.1. Nel capitolo finale (Cap. 6) sono presenti i risultati numerici relativi ad alcuni test preliminari eseguiti confrontando la versione originale del protocollo con le versioni modificate contenenti i miglioramenti proposti. I test sono risultati molto positivi per elevate perdite, confermando cosi la validita dell'analisi e dei miglioramenti introdotti.

Generalization of amygdala LTP and conditioned fear in the absence of presynaptic inhibition

Pavlovian fear conditioning, a simple form of associative learning, is thought to involve the induction of associative, NMDA receptor-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) in the lateral amygdala. Using a combined genetic and electrophysiological approach, we show here that lack of a specific GABA(B) receptor subtype, GABA(B(1a,2)), unmasks a nonassociative, NMDA receptor-independent form of presynaptic LTP at cortico-amygdala afferents. Moreover, the level of presynaptic GABA(B(1a,2)) receptor activation, and hence the balance between associative and nonassociative forms of LTP, can be dynamically modulated by local inhibitory activity. At the behavioral level, genetic loss of GABA(B(1a)) results in a generalization of conditioned fear to nonconditioned stimuli. Our findings indicate that presynaptic inhibition through GABA(B(1a,2)) receptors serves as an activity-dependent constraint on the induction of homosynaptic plasticity, which may be important to prevent the generalization of conditioned fear.

Memory and long-term potentiation (LTP) dissociated: Normal spatial memory despite CA1 LTP elimination with Kv1.4 antisense

Long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampal slice preparation has been proposed as an in vitro model for long-term memory. However, correlation of LTP with memory in living animals has been difficult to demonstrate. Furthermore, in the last few years evidence has accumulated that dissociate the two. Because potassium channels might determine the weight of synapses in networks, we studied the role of Kv1.4, a presynaptic A-type voltage-dependent K+ channel, in both memory and LTP. Reverse transcription–PCR and Western blot analysis with specific antibodies showed that antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotide to Kv1.4 microinjected intraventricularly into rat brains obstructed hippocampal Kv1.4 mRNA, “knocking down” the protein in the hippocampus. This antisense knockdown had no effect on rat spatial maze learning, memory, or exploratory behavior, but eliminated both early- and late-phase LTP and reduced paired-pulse facilitation (a presynaptic effect) in CA1 pyramidal neurons without affecting dentate gyrus LTP. This presynaptic Kv1.4 knockdown together with previous postsynaptic Kv1.1 knockdown demonstrates that CA1 LTP is neither necessary nor sufficient for rat spatial memory.
