: The diterpene cafestol represents the most potent cholesterol-elevating compound known in the human diet, being responsible for more than 80% of the effect of coffee on serum lipids, with...
An early-stage diagnosis could significantly improve the prognosis of severe diseases such as Alzheimer’s (AD). The key is to find alternative platforms for the improvement of clinical diagnostic methods. In...
: Blocking iron uptake and metabolism has been emerging as a promising therapeutic strategy for the development of novel antimicrobial compounds. Like all mycobacteria, M. abscessus (Mab) has evolved several...
A set of 23 vesbine-bearing samples from Vesuvius volcano (Italy), preserved in the collection of the Royal Mineralogical Museum of Naples, University Federico II (RMMN), have been investigated to identify...
Pancreatic cancer, with its increasing incidence and lowest 5-year survival rate, is predicted to become the second leading cause of cancer deaths by 2030. Current clinical trials have shown limited...
The use of 3D printing in medicine has rapidly grown in the last decades. Among all the possible applications, particularly in neurosurgery, the combination with neuronavigation technology have provided new...
Luminescent organic molecules showing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) are appealing materials for high-efficiency OLEDs. Here, we report a new class of organic luminescent materials with TADF properties, and a...
A novel hybrid hydrogel nanocomposite immunosensor was developed for the electrochemical detection of hemoglobin in blood. The transducing element was based on carbon black (CB)-nanomodified screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) on which...
: ATP has recently been reconsidered as a molecule with functional properties which go beyond its recognized role of the energetic driver of the cell. ATP has been described as...
Phospholipids in biological membranes establish a chemical equilibrium between free phospholipids in the aqueous phase (CMC) and self-assembled phospholipids in vesicles, keeping the CMC constant. The CMC is different for...
