Hypothalamic reactive oxygen species are required for insulin-induced food intake inhibition: an NADPH oxidase-dependent mechanism
2009
1939-327X (Electronic) Journal Article Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't; OBJECTIVE: Insulin plays an important role in the hypothalamic control of energy balance, especially by reducing food intake. Emerging data point to a pivotal role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in energy homeostasis regulation, but their involvement in the anorexigenic effect of insulin is unknown. Furthermore, ROS signal derived from NADPH oxidase activation is required for physiological insulin effects in peripheral cells. In this study, we investigated the involvement of hypothalamic ROS and NADPH oxidase in the feeding behavior regulation by insulin. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We first measured hypothalamic RO…
Cyclosporine A + Glybenclamide. Effect on Glucose Metabolism: Preliminary Results
1989
Cyclosporine A (CsA) is an immunosuppressive drug which determines, at high dosage, glucose intolerance (1). Different drugs present a pharmacological interaction with CsA increasing or reducing its blood level (2). To investigate the role of Glybenclamide (HB419), a sulphonilureic oral antidiabetic drug of large use, on CsA glucose metabolic effect, we have administered CsA + HB419 in rats. The aim of our work is to evaluate if HB419 influences CsA blood levels and if it improves glucose tolerance.
Prefazione al volume Corpi e identità : Donne dal Subcontinente indiano all’Italia di K. Carnà e S. Rossetti
2021
The preface to the book 'Bodies and Identities' highlights some of the themes addressed by the authors - K. Carnà and S. Rossetti. Carnà and S. Rossetti. Ignazia Bartholini highlights how the theme of body care and facial embellishments is declined in different practices oriented by the culture of origin of the women interviewed. Bangladeshi women, Indian, Pakistani and Sri Lankan women who let us in on some of their secrets of beauty" but, above all, they allow us to share stories to share stories closely linked to rites of passage in which care and beauty are not just ends in themselves, but constitute forms of entry into the native culture.
Influence of Age on Cerebral Housekeeping Gene Expression for Normalization of Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction after Acute Brain Injury in Mice
2015
To prevent methodological errors of quantitative PCR (qPCR) normalization with reference genes is obligatory. Although known to influence gene expression, impact of age on housekeeping gene expression has not been determined after acute brain lesions such as traumatic brain injury (TBI). Therefore, expression of eight common control genes was investigated at 15 min, 24 h, and 72 h after experimental TBI in 2- and 21-month-old C57Bl6 mice. Expression of β2-microglobulin (B2M), β-actin (ActB), and porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) increased after TBI in both ages. β2M demonstrated age-dependent differences and highest inter- and intragroup variations. Expression of cyclophilin A, glyceraldehyd…
Biowaiver Monograph for Immediate-Release Solid Oral Dosage Forms: Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride.
2020
Abstract In this monograph, literature data is reviewed to evaluate the feasibility of waiving in vivo bioequivalence testing and instead applying the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) based methods to the approval of immediate-release solid oral dosage forms containing moxifloxacin hydrochloride as the sole active pharmaceutical ingredient. To facilitate the feasibility decision, solubility and permeability and dissolution characteristics in the context of the BCS, therapeutic index, therapeutic use, pharmacokinetic parameters, bioequivalence/bioavailability issues, drug-excipient interactions and other relevant data were taken into consideration. Moxifloxacin is a BCS class I d…
SOCS3 transactivation by PPARγ prevents IL-17-driven cancer growth.
2013
Abstract Activation of the transcription factor PPARγ by the n-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is implicated in controlling proinflammatory cytokine secretion, but the intracellular signaling pathways engaged by PPARγ are incompletely characterized. Here, we identify the adapter-encoding gene SOCS3 as a critical transcriptional target of PPARγ. SOCS3 promoter binding and gene transactivation by PPARγ was associated with a repression in differentiation of proinflammatory T-helper (TH)17 cells. Accordingly, TH17 cells induced in vitro displayed increased SOCS3 expression and diminished capacity to produce interleukin (IL)-17 following activation of PPARγ by DHA. Furthermore, naïve CD4…

A systematic review and combined analysis of therapeutic drug monitoring studies for longacting risperidone
2017
Introduction: This systematic review of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) identifies three long-acting injectable (LAI) risperidone formulations. Areas covered: Limited data is available on two formulations (RBP-7000 and in Situ Microparticle), but 20 TDM articles on the microsphere formulation were found. Risperidone TDM includes the serum concentrations of risperidone and its active metabolite, 9-hydroxyrisperidone, used for calculating: 1) the risperidone/9-hydroxyrisperidone (R/9-OH-R) ratio (a measure of CYP2D6; values >1 are indicative of a CYP2D6 poor metabolizer) and 2) the total risperidone concentration-to-dose (C/D) ratio (a measure of risperidone clearance with a normal value…
The impact of lactic acid bacteria with antimicrobial properties on biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and biogenic amines in cold sm…
2017
The influence of surface treatment with lactic acid bacteria (LAB), previously cultivated in an alternative substrate, on the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and biogenic amines (BAs) in cold smoked pork meat sausages was investigated. Moreover, sausages treatment with LAB after the smoking on PAHs content changes was evaluated. Additionally, the inhibitory effects of LAB metabolites on food spoilage bacteria was determined using the agar well diffusion assay method. The metabolites of Pediococcus acidilactici KTU05-7, Pediococcus pentosaceus KTU05-9 and Lactobacillus sakei KTU05-6 strains showed good inhibitory properties against tested pathogenic and food spoilage bac…
