*-Graded Capelli polynomials and their asymptotics
2022
Let [Formula: see text] be the free *-superalgebra over a field [Formula: see text] of characteristic zero and let [Formula: see text] be the [Formula: see text]-ideal generated by the set of the *-graded Capelli polynomials [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] alternating on [Formula: see text] symmetric variables of homogeneous degree zero, on [Formula: see text] skew variables of homogeneous degree zero, on [Formula: see text] symmetric variables of homogeneous degree one and on [Formula: see text] skew variables of homogeneous degree one, respectively. We study the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of *-graded codimensions of [Formula: se…
On central polynomials and codimension growth
2022
Let A be an associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero. A central polynomial is a polynomial of the free associative algebra that takes central values of A. In this survey, we present some recent results about the exponential growth of the central codimension sequence and the proper central codimension sequence in the setting of algebras with involution and algebras graded by a finite group.

Topologie à l'infini et variétés à géométrie bornée
2013
We give a quick review on the asymptotic topology and the geometry of manifolds with bounded geometry, by quoting also some results obtained by the authors.
In vitro antibacterial activity of endodontic sealers
2004
Summary Objectives To evaluate the antibacterial activity of four endodontic sealers: one epoxy resin sealer (AH Plus), two zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE)-based sealers (Endomethasone, Pulp Canal Sealer), and one sealer containing both ZOE and orthophenilphenol (Vcanalare). Methods A direct contact test (DCT) was performed. A 10 μl suspension of Enterococcus faecalis was placed on the test material 20 min, 24 h and 7 days after mixing. Bacteria were allowed to directly contact the sealers for 1 h at 37 °C. Bacterial growth was then spectrophotometrically measured every 30 min for 7 h, and again after 24 h as well. Results All freshly mixed sealers showed complete inhibition of bacterial growth. S…
Significance of Autologous Interleukin-6 Production in the HA22T/VGH Cell Model of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
2006
Cancer cells may often support their own growth, survival, and drug resistance by autocrine/paracrine loops based on the production of different factors; results from us and others have shown that similar interleukin-6 (IL-6)-related loops are operative in multiple myeloma and prostate or renal cancer. Because this aspect has not been investigated in detail for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we have examined it in HA22T/VGH cells. These differ from other primary liver cancer cell lines (that is, HepG2, HuH-6, and HuH-7) in that enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed the HA22T/VGH cells to secrete remarkable amounts of IL-6 (16.8 ng/10(6) cells/24 h); this production, due to const…
Basilar Invagination, Bone Regrowth, Chiari malformation, Clivus, Odontoid Process, Transoral Odontoidectomy
2014
Purpose: Transoral odontoidectomy followed by occipito-cervical fixation is a widely used approach to relieve ventral compressions at the craniovertebral junction (CVJ). Despite the large amount of literature on this approach and its complications, no previous reports of odontoid process and clival regeneration following transoral odontoidectomy are present in the English literature. Methods: We report the case of odontoid process and clival regeneration following transoral odontoidectomy. Results: A 7 year-old boy presented with symptoms of brainstem and upper cervical spinal cord compression due to a complex malformation at the CVJ including a basilar invagination with Chiari malformation…
