Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of new non-nucleosidic inhibitors od DNA methyltransferases
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2013-04-03)
The inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, which often results from epigenetic silencing associated with DNA hypermethylation, plays a pivotal role in the development of most forms of human cancer. Moreover, there are ...

(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-05-21)
The thesis entitled “The design and synthesis of novel N-heterocyclic compounds, and their evaluation of anti-cancer and anti-viral activity" is divided into three chapters.
The title of the thesis clearly reflects the ...
Biophysical investigation of biomolecules in bio-membrane models
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-05-30)
Many drugs are available for the treatment of systemic or superficial mycoses,
but only a limited number of them are effective antifungal drugs, devoid of
toxic and undesirable side effects. Therefore there remains an ...
Design and synthesis of “small molecules” as antiviral and radiotracer agents
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-03-28)
The present Ph.D. project was divided into different work parts, in a way that helps to understand and define the goals of this project. In particular: I) Design, synthesis and evaluation of antiviral activity of Arbidol ...
Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of new small molecule modulators of Arginine methyltransferases
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-02-21)
The methylation of arginine residues is a prevalent post-translational modification, found on both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins, catalyzed by the protein arginine N-methyltransferase (PRMT) family of enzymes. To date ...
Analysis and evaluation of potential nutracentical milk and dairy products derived from the Centrale del latte di Salerno
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-03-16)
The main objective of my PhD has been focused to the analysis and characterization of milk and dairy products derived from “Centrale del Latte di Salerno” in order to assess their potential use as dietary supplements and ...

(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-03-18)
Per lipossigenasi (nota più comunemente con l'abbreviazione di LOX o LO) si intende una famiglia eterogenea di enzimi in grado di perossidare i lipidi e di causare l'ossigenazione di acidi grassi polinsaturi trasformandoli, ...
NMR study of protein-ligand interaction
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-03-11)
My PhD project was focused on the study of protein-ligands interactions using different NMR techniques. NMR has a long history in drug discovery and hit-to-lead optimization. Compared to many other biophysical techniques, ...
