    Comida y corporalidad de Jesús en Tertuliano: aproximación a una antropología y teología cristiana primitiva.
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones., 2026) González Rivera, Josué; Sin departamento asociado
    Este artículo examina la comprensión de la corporalidad de Jesús en la obra de Tertuliano, especialmente mediante un acercamiento a las experiencias de comer y beber que se integran en la teología del autor. En primer lugar, se presenta la defensa de la plena humanidad de Jesús, donde destaca la apología de su carne pasible y mortal, la cual necesitaba ser alimentada desde la encarnación. A continuación, se exploran las experiencias del hambre y la sed de Jesús, ya que ilustran su verdadera humanidad y su participación de las pasiones humanas. Por último, se aborda el ayuno de Cristo y su importancia en la vida cristiana que, para Tertuliano, son prácticas que se convierten en una norma identitaria y soteriológica de la comunidad. Este enfoque permite conocer el Evangelio en la obra de Tertuliano, donde aporta una visión de la humanidad de Cristo y su relevancia para la teología y la vida cristiana.

    Relationships between variable time, percentage of food restriction and liver histology: which alternative is the best for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) prevention?
    (Universidad de Murcia. Departamento de Biología Celular e Histología, 2016) Makovicky, Peter; Tumova, Eva; Volek, Zdenek; Makovicky, Pavol; Sedlacek, Radislav
    The objective of this study was to analyse the hepatic effects of food restriction in an experimental rabbit model. The study comprised 105 rabbits divided into 6 groups. The two control groups were fed ad libitum (ADL) during the entire experiment (C1 and C2). The experimental groups were restricted between 42-49 days of age, where the rabbits received 50g (R1) or 65g (R2) of food per rabbit per day. Others were restricted between 35-42 days of age, where the rabbits received 50g (R3) or 65g (R4) of food per rabbit per day. For liver analysis, 5 rabbits per group were slaughtered at the ages of 49, 56, 63, 70 days from the R1, R2 groups and at 42, 49, 70 days from the R3, R4 groups. All animals from the C1 and C2 groups developed steatosis with inflammation. Animals from the R1 and R2 groups developed steatosis without inflammation while in the R3 and R4 groups steatosis was not visible. In C1 and C2 groups we observed mostly fatty deposit accumulations while in the R1, R2, R3 and R4 groups, more PAS-positive material accumulations were visible. Liver steatosis correlated with inflammation development and interstitial tissue growth. These results can be used in clinical praxis as signs of NAFLD progression. Early food restriction had intense effects on liver morphology and it seems promising that similar approaches could be applied as preventive treatment for NAFLD development.
