    Viral nervous necrosis is caused by the nervous necrosis virus (Betanodavirus genus), a naked virus with two positive-sense RNA segments. Betanodaviruses are classified into four species, being RGNNV predominant in the Mediterranean area. RGNNV causes high mortality in several fish species, including European seabass. There are two vaccines to protect seabass against RGNNV infection. In this regard, the development of strategies to protect different fish species against different viruses, such as the use of probiotics, is a key issue for the aquaculture industry. Shewanella putrefaciens Pdp11, SpPdp11, is a fish probiotic with proven positive effects on seabream and Senegalese sole, protecting those species against bacterial pathogens; however, its antiviral activity is unknown. This study evaluates the anti-RGNNV activity of sonicated-SpPdp11 extracts in vitro and in vivo. The in vitro evaluation was performed on E11 cells following 3 assays: (i) neutralization, (ii) 6-h pre-adsorption, (iii) post-adsorption, determining the inhibition of RGNNV-induced CPEs and quantifying viral replication. The immunostimulatory activity of SpPdp11 extracts was also examined, analysing the transcription of mx, hsp70, tnfα, e3 and tlr3 in E11 cells. For the in vivo evaluation, two European seabass groups were established: (i) control group, (ii) experimental group, fed with commercial pellet supplemented with SpPdp11 extracts. Animals were fed for 30 days and subsequently challenged by intramuscular injection. SpPdp11 extracts compromised RGNNV replication in E11 cells (67.3% and 55% CPE inhibition in pre-adsorption and post-adsorption assays, respectively), and modulated the transcription of all the immune-related genes examined. The highest induction was obtained for mx gene. Regarding the in vivo results, 82% of fish fed with the SpPdp11-supplemented diet survived to RGNNV infection, whereas the survival rate of fish fed with the control diet was 64%.P18-RT-1067 (Proyecto de Excelencia, Junta de Andalucia), PID2020-113637RB-C22 (MINECO/AEI/FEDER, UE).

    Inhibition of nervous necrosis virus replication by Shewanella putrefaciens Pdp11 extract

    One of the most relevant infectious diseases affecting farmed fish is the viral encephalopathy and retinopathy, caused by the nervous necrosis virus (NNV). The two commercial vaccines available against this virus have been designed to protect European seabass against the infection with a particular NNV species, RGNNV. Therefore, the development of strategies to protect different fish species against different viruses is a key issue for the aquaculture industry. In this regard, there are numerous studies focused on the use of probiotics, although their antiviral activity has been poorly investigated. Shewanella putrefaciens Pdp11, SpPdp11, is a probiotic with proven positive effects on gilthead seabream and Senegalese sole, protecting those species against several bac- terial pathogens; however, its antiviral activity remains to be investigated. The current study is a step forward in the use of probiotics against viral infections, evaluating the anti-RGNNV activity of sonicated-SpPdp11 extracts both, in vitro and in vivo. According to our results, SpPdp11 extracts compromised RGNNV multiplication in E11 cells, affecting viral assembly and/or exit rather than genome replication. Furthermore, this antiviral activity may be produced by the capacity of the SpPdp11-extract to induce an immune response in treated cells. This antiRGNNV activity has been confirmed in vivo, since 82% of fish fed with the SpPdp11-supplemented diet survived an experimental-RGNNV infection, whereas the survival rate of fish fed with the control diet was 64%. These results suggest that SpPdp11-supplemented feeding can be a promising prophylactic tool against RGNNV and encourage further research on other fish species and viral pathogens.This study has been supported by the projects P18-RT-1067 (Proyecto de Excelencia, Junta de Andalucia, Regional Government) and PID2020-113637RB-C22 (MINECO/AEI/FEDER, UE) (Spanish Government).

    Much is known about processions within the Roman liturgy. However, processions of the Old Hispanic rite practiced in most of Christian Iberia until c. 1080 have been barely studied. Manuscripts from the Old hispanic rite preserve rubrics that explicitly show features and context for such processions. These processions happened around or during Mass (for example, on Palm Sunday), at the end of Vespers or Matutinum (for example, the consecration of a basilica), or even outside the usual daily liturgy (for example, votive ordos). In this article, we have collated all the rubrics pertaining to liturgical movement that were copied in the extant Old Hispanic manuscrits. Some of these unquestionably refer to processions, while others describe ceremonies that might better be described more informally as «liturgy in motion». In particular, we have focused on the processional rubrics, while also engaging with other movements as part of the liturgy. Additionally, in this article we identify the chant genres associated with processions and outline the processional practices attested in the rubrics.Conocemos mucha información sobre las procesiones de la liturgia romana. Sin embargo, las procesiones del rito hispánico celebradas en la mayor parte de la Iberia cristiana antes de ca. 1080 apenas han sido estudiadas. Los manuscritos de la liturgia hispánica preservan rúbricas que muestran explícitamente las características y el contexto de dichas procesiones. Estas tenían lugar antes, durante o después la Misa (por ejemplo, en el Domingo de Ramos), al final del oficio vespertino o matutino (por ejemplo, en la consagración de una basílica), o incluso fuera de la rutina diaria de la liturgia (por ejemplo, en ocasiones votivas). En este artículo recopilamos la totalidad de las rúbricas que se transmiten en los manuscritos del rito hispánico y que informan sobre movimiento litúrgico. Algunas de estas rúbricas se refieren de forma inequívoca a procesiones, mientras que otras describen ceremonias que bien podrían ser descritas, más informalmente, como «liturgia en movimiento». En particular, nos hemos centrado en aquellas rúbricas procesionales, si bien hemos prestado también atención a otros movimientos como parte de la liturgia. Además, en este artículo identificamos los géneros de canto asociados con las procesiones y definimos las prácticas procesionales que atestiguan dichas rúbricas.

    El lenguaje escrito aparece, desde tiempos muy remotos, como necesidad de los hombres para comunicarse y reflejar su realidad objetiva. Con la evolución del hombre se perfeccionan los códigos escritos. ¿El propósito? : legar a las continuas generaciones ideas, conocimientos, y experiencias sobre la naturaleza la sociedad y el pensamiento. Este proceso ha dado lugar al desarrollo dialéctico de la humanidad. La expectativa de todo el que escribe es que su texto sea leído. La relación escritura lectura está determinada por dos niveles: primero se realiza una actividad visual(los códigos escritos son enviados al cerebro a través de los órganos visuales) y después se efectúa una actividad cognitiva (el cerebro interpreta la información recibida). La lectura es entonces una actividad intelectual que desarrolla la habilidad de extraer información de materiales escritos

    The viral nervous necrosis (VNN) is a neurotropic disease affecting different fish species, resulting in high mortality rates. The causal agent is the nervous necrosis virus (NNV), belonging to the Betanodavirus genus, Nodaviridae family. Betanodaviruses are classified into four species; however, commercial vaccines are only available for RGNNV, one of the most predominant viral species isolated in the Mediterranean area. Since preventive measures against NNV infections are scarce, the development of different strategies to avoid the disease is highly relevant. Functional diets play an important role, and, in this context, the addition of probiotics to fish feed has been reported to provide several benefits to fish health. However, there are safety concerns regarding feed supplementation with live bacterial cells. In this regard, the use of non-viable probiotics it is of great interest. Shewanella putrefaciens Pdp11, SpPdp11, is a probiotic isolated from healthy gilthead seabream, which has been described to promote antibacterial activity; however, its antiviral activity remains poorly understood. Recently, our research team evaluated the anti-RGNNV effect of SpPdp11 sonicated extracts in vitro. In the present study, the effect of feed supplementation with sonicated extracts of SpPdp11 has been evaluated in European sea bass, as well as its effect against an RGNNV challenge. Animals were fed for 30 days with the supplemented diet and the results were compared with a control diet. Changes in the intestinal microbiota and in the transcription of immune genes were assessed at 7 and 30 days within the feeding period. Animals fed with the supplemented diet show higher levels of prokaryotic diversity; however, these differences were not statistically significant. Regarding transcriptional analyses, only 8 of 56 genes were differentially transcribed in fish fed with the supplemented diet, all of them downregulated.Universidad de Málaga.

    La Facultad de Farmacia de la Universidad de Sevilla (US) tiene en marcha un Programa de Alumnos Tutores desde 2006/07 con el objetivo de que alumnos de cursos superiores (AATT) tutelen a alumnos de nuevo ingreso (1x3). Pretende generar una actitud responsable en los AATT y favorecerles el desarrollo de habilidades sociales, objetivos cualitativos dentro de la educación universitaria que sirven como preparación previa a su inserción en el mundo laboral. La actividad es supervisada por Profesores Tutores (1x3) que analizan la evolución de ambos grupos de alumnos. Es una supervisión activa a través de distintas vías de acción para ayudar a la consecución de objetivos, tales como entrevistas periódicas, revisión de informes, acciones de apoyo como charlas sobre técnicas de estudio, coloquios sobre salidas laborales, exposiciones de las experiencias personales de algunos alumnos recientemente egresados, gestión estratégica de búsqueda de empleo, elaboración de portafolios,… Con respecto a la evolución del programa, el número de profesores ha crecido moderadamente llegando a una situación estable, mientras que el número de alumnos, tanto tutores como tutelados, ha crecido en un ritmo constante acorde a las restricciones indicadas. Los resultados son muy positivos, entendiéndose que el proyecto se enmarca en un contexto más cualitativo que cuantitativo y que el principal objetivo es el robustecimiento de la experiencia y asentar una dinámica de apoyo hacia los alumnos de nuevo ingreso y de planificación de tareas, tutela y responsabilidad en general de los alumnos tutores.The Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Seville (US) has developed a Student Mentoring Program (from 2006/07 - present). The main objective of this project is that senior students act as Mentor Students for students at their first year in the University (1x3). It aims to generate a responsible attitude in mentor students and to promote the development of social skills, qualitative goals within higher education that serve as preparation prior to their integration into the world of work. This activity is supervised by Mentor Professors (1x3) that analyze the evolution of both groups of students. It is an active monitoring through various actions such as regular interviews, review of reports, support operations such as lectures on study skills, seminars on job opportunities, statements of personal experiences of some recently graduated students, strategic management job search, portfolio development... With regard to the development of the program, the number of Mentor Professors has grown moderately, reaching a stable condition, while the number of students, both tutor and supervised, has grown steadily in line with the restrictions indicated. The results are very positive, considering the more qualitative than quantitative character of the project and that the main objectives are the strengthening of the experience and the establishment of a dynamic support to the new students and scheduling and general responsibility for mentor students
