In vitro effects of bioactive extracts of local Italian cultivars: from molecular mechanisms to potential nutraceutical applications for consumers’ well-being
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2017-03-31)Phytochemicals are non-nutritional compounds, naturally present in food and beverages, which exert beneficial effects on human health. The present Doctorate Thesis evaluates the biological properties of bioactive ... -
Innovative technological strategies for the production of in situ gelling powders containing active biomolecules for wound healing
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2022-05-02)The aim of this Ph.D. project is the development of novel topical formulations for the treatment of various wounds by innovative technologies (micro and nano spray drying). The specific objective is the production of a ... -
Interactome analysis of bioactive molecules: optimization of a functional proteomics platform
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2020-10-24)The identification of natural products (NPs) target proteins is pivotal to understand their mechanism of action, in order to develop molecular probes and/or potential drugs. In the last 15 years, affinity chromatogra ... -
Molecular basis of cardiomiopathy
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2018-04-05)The normal heart rhythm is guaranteed by an important intercellular junctions system, named Gap Junction (GJs). Each GJs consists of two units called connexons formed by six specific trans-membrane proteins named connexins ... -
Molecular mechanisms of TFF1-Helicobacter cross-talk
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2023-04-18)Helicobacter pylori is one of the most important pathogenic bacteria associated with various gastric diseases, including cancer. This pathogen induces an acute mucosal inflammatory response and, if not eradicated, it ... -
Neurodegeneration in Chronic Kidney Disease: role of neuroinflammation and uremic toxins
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2017-03-28)Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress have been recognized as common aspects in neurodegenerative diseases. Although the inflammatory process may induce beneficial effects, such as the elimination of the pathogen, ... -
NMR-based metabolomic analysis of biological fluids to monitor relevant unsolved diseases
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2017-03-30)Metabolomics and metabonomics encompass the comprehensive profiling of multiple metabolite concentrations and their cellular and systemic fluctuations in response to drugs, diet, lifestyle, environment, stimuli and genetic ... -
Proteomic investigation of the impact of Cannabidiolic acid on Eukaryotic Translation complex in glioblastoma
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2023-04-12)Phytocannabinoids, the major secondary metabolites of cannabis plants, exert a wide range of biological activities. The present work was focused on investigating the mechanism of action of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) in ... -
Role of CD73 in patients with advanced melanoma treated with anti-PD-1 agents
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2022-04-04)The treatment of metastatic melanoma was revolutionized by the approval of inhibitors of immune-checkpoints, including antibodies targeting the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD- 1), such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab. ... -
Role of TFF1 in tumor progression
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2017-03-31)Trefoil Factor 1 (TFF1) is a small secreted protein, belonging to the trefoil factor family, characterized by a conserved “trefoil domain” containing six cysteine residues that form a three loop disulphide structure. It ... -
