Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is an atherosclerotic disorder that leads to impaired lumen patency through intimal hyperplasia and the build-up of plaques, mainly localized in areas of disturbed flow. Computational models can provide valuable insights in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and act as a predictive tool to optimize current interventional techniques. Our hypothesis is that a reliable predictive model must include the atherosclerosis development history. Accordingly, we developed a ...

The effect of the presence of ganglioside GM1, up to 20% by mol, on the size, stability upon aging, and changes with dilution, of small unilamellar vesicles of egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) was studied by static and dynamic laser-light scattering technique. Standardised conditions were preliminarily set up for the preparation of small unilamellar vesicles by the sonication-ultra-centrifugation method. Under these conditions the presence of ganglioside caused a progressive decrease of lipid concentration ...

Solutions of the nonionic amphiphile n-dodecyl octaoxyethylene glycol monoether (C12E8) in D2O and in salty H2O have been investigated by static and dynamic light scattering. It is found that the micellar properties are little influenced by the choice of the solvent, whereas the critical properties (in particular, the critical exponents γ and ν) show a marked solvent effect. The interpretation of the observed critical behavior in terms of first-order correction-to-scaling contributions is discussed.

Interest in the biological activities of cocoa polyphenols is increasing steadily. In fact, the high polyphenol content of cocoa, coupled with its widespread presence in many food items, render this food of particular interest from the nutritional and "pharmacological" viewpoints. This paper summarizes the new findings and developments regarding the effects of cocoa and chocolate consumption on human health as presented at the International Conference "Chocolate, Lifestyle, and Health" (Milan, Italy, ...

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) rapidly responds to high-dose corticosteroids. However, smouldering arterial inflammation can persist despite the absence of symptoms and altered acute phase reactants. In patients that are refractory, symptoms relapse during steroid tapering and vascular complications may develop. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) level are not sensitive enough markers to detect refractory disease.1 The neuroendocrine system regulates innate and acquired ...

Two hours after a single intraperitoneal injection of dexamethasone (20 μg/Kg b.w.) into adult male rats, a typical ladder of DNA fragments was detectable upon separation on agarose gels of DNA from thymocytes. This became maximally evident at 4 hours. Accumulation of sulfated glycoprotein-2 (SGP-2) mRNA, whose rate of expression has been associated to the processes of programmed cell death, preceded the appearance of DNA degradation, starting to increase as early as 30 min after steroid injection, ...

Engine performance and efficiency are largely influenced by combustion phasing. Operating conditions and control settings influence the combustion development over the crankshaft angle; the most effective control parameter used by electronic control units to optimize the combustion process for spark ignition engines is spark advance (SA). SA mapping is a time-consuming process, usually carried out with the engine running in steady state on the test bench, changing SA values while monitoring brake ...

Patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) have significantly fewer and functionally impaired endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in peripheral blood and bone marrow; further, endothelial apoptosis seems to play a primary role in the pathogenesis of vascular damage. We investigated whether the failure of bone marrow EPC is related to their apoptotic phenotype and analyzed the possible mechanisms inducing apoptosis.The presence of apoptotic cells was investigated in bone marrow aspirates taken from patients ...

One of the most effective factors influencing performance, efficiency, and pollutant emissions of internal combustion engines is the combustion phasing: In gasoline engines, electronic control units (ECUs) manage the spark advance (SA) in order to set the optimal combustion phase. SA is usually optimized on the test bench by changing the ignition angle while monitoring brake mean effective pressure (BMEP) and indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC). The optimization ...

One of the most effective factors influencing performance, efficiency, and pollutant emissions of internal combustion engines is the combustion phasing: in gasoline engines electronic control units (ECUs) manage the spark advance (SA) in order to set the optimal combustion phase. Combustion control is assuming a crucial role in reducing engine tailpipe emissions and maximizing performance. The number of actuations influencing the combustion is increasing, and as a consequence, the calibration of control ...

Administration of NGR-TNF, a tumor vessel-targeting and tumor necrosis factor α TNFα) peptide conjugate, with immunotherapy has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in mice. Thus, we planned a Phase I pilot clinical trial to assess safety, immune and clinical response of this combination treatment for advanced melanoma. NA17.A2 and MAGE-3.A1 peptides were used as vaccine. HLA-A*0201 or HLA-A*01 metastatic melanoma patients received human NGR-hTNF i.v. alternating with s.c. weekly injections of either ...

Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative option for patients with Diamond Blackfan anaemia (DBA). We report the transplantation outcome of 30 Italian DBA patients referred to the Italian Association of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology Registry between 1990 and 2012. This is one of the largest national registry cohorts of transplanted DBA patients. Most patients (83%) were allografted after 2000. A matched sibling donor was employed in 16 patients (53%), the ...

Few studies are available on metabolic changes in liver injuries and this is the first metabolomic study evaluating a group of HCV-positive patients, before and after viral eradication via DAA IFN-free regimens, using 1H-NMR to characterize and compare their serum fingerprints to naïve HBV-patients and healthy donors. The investigation clearly shows differences in the metabolomic profile of HCV patients before and after effective DAA treatment. Significant changes in metabolites levels in patients ...

A new and simple method is presented to fluorinate the surfaces of poorly reactive hydrophobic polymers in a more environmentally friendly way using the protein hydrophobin (HFBII) as a nanosized primer layer. In particular, HFBII, via electrostatic interactions, enables the otherwise inefficient binding of a phosphate‐terminated perfluoropolyether onto polystyrene, polypropylene, and low‐density polyethylene surfaces. The binding between HFBII and the perfluoropolyether depends significantly on ...

We report a broadband 1H NMR study of the spin dynamics of coated maghemite and gold–maghemite hybrid nanostructures with two different geometries, namely dimers and core–shells. All the samples have a superparamagnetic behavior, displaying a blocking temperature (TB ∼ 80 K (maghemite), ∼105 K (dimer), ∼150 K (core–shell)), and the magnetization reversal time follows the Vogel–Fulcher law. We observed three different anomalies in 1H NMR T1–1 versus T that decrease in amplitude when increasing the applied ...

The development of molecularly targeted anticancer agents relies on large panels of tumour-specific preclinical models closely recapitulating the molecular heterogeneity observed in patients. Here we describe the mutational and gene expression analyses of 151 colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines.

Transcriptional outlier analysis identifies RAS/BRAF ...
