Vaccinium spp. ogu izspiedu ekstraktu pretiekaisuma īpašības
2020
Ilgstošs iekaisums ir būtisks faktors hronisku slimību attīstībā, taču vēl joprojām nav pieejami pilnībā droši pretiekaisuma līdzekļi, tādēļ pasaulē pieaug interese par dabīgas izcelsmes savienojumiem ar pretiekaisuma īpašībām. Vaccinium ģints ogas pazīstamas ar augstu bioloģisko aktivitāti un labvēlīgu ietekmi uz cilvēku veselību, pateicoties augstam polifenolu saturam. Šobrīd ogu izspiedas tiek pētītas kā alternatīvs fitoķīmisko savienojumu avots ar veselību veicinošu potenciālu. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt piecu Vaccinium spp. ogu izspiedu ekstraktu pretiekaisuma īpašības, izmantojot lipoksigenāzes (5-LOX), ciklooksigenāzes (COX-1) un ksantīna oksidāzes inhibitoru skrīninga testus.

4,5,6,9-TETRAHYDROPYRROLO[2',3'-3,4]CYCLOEPTA[1,2-d]ISOSSAZOLE, PROCESS FOR THEIR PRODUCTION AND THEIR USES AS ANTITUMOR AGENTS
2016
The present invention concerns the synthesis of compounds bearing the PYRROLO[2',3'-3,4]CYCLOEPTA[1,2-d]ISOSSAZOLE structure, and their use for the treatment of pathologies having hyperproliferative features included those having neoplastic nature.
LE VARIANTI DEL GENE CYP2C19 NELLA FARMACO-GENOMICA DEL CLOPIDOGREL
2010
Il clopidogrel per espletare la propria funzione di antiaggregante piastrinica necessita l’intervento di diversi citocromi epatici. Le varianti del gene CYP2C19 sembrano influenzarne sensibilmente l’attivazione e pertanto l’azione farmacologica. Sono stati identificati tre alleli principali. L’allele CYP2C19*1 è il wild type e codifica per un enzima costituzionalmente attivo. Gli alleli CYP2C9*2 e CYP2C9*3 codificano invece per forme enzimatiche parzialmente funzionanti e sono responsabili sia in eterozigosi che in omozigosi della variazione di attività farmacologica. La valutazione delle varianti è stata eseguita mediante le metodiche PCR-RFLP e sequenziamento diretto. Abbiamo allestito du…
COUMARINS FROM CACHRYS SICULA L.
2017
One new coumarin, 8-hydroxymethylpsoralen (1), was isolated from the dried leaves of Cachrys sicula L. along with the known coumarins sprengelianin (2) and (RS)-oxypeucedanin (3). The structure of the new compound was elucidated on the basis of NMR and ESI-MS spectral analysis.
Hand-made paper obtained by green procedure of cladode waste of Opuntia ficus indica (L.) Mill. from Sicily
2019
Cellulosic fibres have been obtained by green procedures from the cladodes of Opuntia ficus indica (L.) Mill., constituting a large agro industrial waste in our territory. The materials have been analysed for its relative composition, applying, IR and TG methodologies and it was characterised by the absence of lignin. The fibrous material allowed the manufacture of a handmade paper obtaining an ecological material suitable for packaging purposes. The authors evidenced that the simple protocol based on hot water treatment was able to decrease the amount of hemicellulose in the final material.
PHEA-graft-polymethacrylate supramolecular aggregates for protein oral delivery
2013
Abstract Salmon calcitonin (sCT) is characterized by a poor oral availability. A new copolymer, β-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-graft-{N-2-ethylene[2-poly(methacrylic acid sodium salt)isobutyrate]}- d , l -aspartamide (PHEA-IB-p(MANa + )), was designed for the oral administration of sCT through the formation of supramolecular aggregates (SAs) based on electrostatic interactions. Several sCT/PHEA-IB-p(MANa + ) weight ratios were characterized by turbidimetry, DLS, zeta potential, and microscopy analysis. After the incubation of sCT/PHEA-IB-p(MANa + ) complex with digestive enzymes, 10% (w/w) of loaded sCT was released in the native form. In vitro investigation was carried out to determine the copol…
Composite Hydrogels of Alkyl Functionalized Gellan Gum Derivative and Hydroxyapatite/Tricalcium Phosphate Nanoparticles as Injectable Scaffolds for b…
2021
An alkyl functionalized gellan gum derivative was here used to produce hydrogels containing hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate nanoparticles as injectable nanostructured scaffolds for bone regeneration. The amphiphilic nature of the polysaccharide derivative along with its thermotropic behavior and ionotropic crosslinking features made possible to produce injectable bone mimetic scaffolds that can be used to release viable cells and osteoinductive biomolecules. The influence of different nanoparticles concentration on the rheological and physicochemical properties of the injectable systems was studied. We found that the presence of inorganic nanoparticles reinforces the three-dimension…
Investigation of the biological activities of Calendula officinalis L. products
2016
Ārstniecības kliņģerītes ir vienas no senākajiem un pazīstamākajiem ārstniecības augiem pasaulē. Tās ir ātraudzīgas un jau vēsturiski plaši izmantotas tautas medicīnā. Pētījumi par ārstniecības kliņģerīšu lomu veselības saglabāšanā un stiprināšanā, izvērtējot aktīvo vielu saturu un sastāvu tajās, tās var pozitīvi ietekmēt cilvēka organismu gan profilakses nolūkos, gan kā papildus terapija ārstēšanas brīdī. Maģistra darba mērķis bija noskaidrot, kādas un cik daudz aktīvās vielas atrodamas pašgatavotos un aptiekā nopērkamos produktos. Pētījumā tika izmantoti 5 pašu pagatavoti ārstniecības kliņģerītes paraugi un 1 aptiekā iegādāts paraugs, no kuriem tika iegūti 6 analīžu paraugi, kas analizēti…
Valoración del estado de salud como calidad de vida. Aplicación de la matriz de Rosser en toxicomanías
2002
Se analizan las valoraciones sobre la calidad de vida percibida que un colectivo de personas con adicción a opiáceos realiza respecto a un conjunto de estados de salud, y si dichas valoraciones son equivalentes a las realizadas por un colectivo normativo de usuarios sanos. A través de técnicas de grupo nominal y mediante la aplicación de la matriz de Rosser, 30 personas en tratamiento en un programa de mantenimiento con metadona ofrecen valoraciones de calidad de vida a diferentes estados de salud. Los resultados muestran que la calidad de vida disminuye a medida que el nivel de incapaci¬dad y el nivel de sufrimiento/dolor aumentan, siendo este último el que tiene un mayor peso específico e…
