Ca2+ homeostasis and redox balance in Antarctic sea organisms: effects of temperature and of enviromental contaminants
In this research, three lines of investigation were pursued. (1) In vivo effects of temperature and H2O2 were evaluated in the limpet Nacella concinna. Production of reactive oxygen species was assessed with dihydrorhodamine 123 fluorescent probe, lysosome alterations with histological techniques, a...
