Hymenal tags of the newborn
(Journal of Dermatological Research, 2019)Evaluation of female newborn genitalia should always be carried out at pre-discharge visit in hospital nurseries in order to exclude gross malformations, potentially compatible with genetic and/or ... -
Hypothalamic AMPK-ER Stress-JNK1 axis mediates the central actions of thyroid hormones on energy balance
(Cell Metabolism, 2017-07)Thyroid hormones (THs) act in the brain to modulate energy balance. We show that central triiodothyronine (T3) regulates de novo lipogenesis in liver and lipid oxidation in brown adipose tissue (BAT) ... -
Hypothalamic endocannabinoids in obesity: an old story with new challenges
(Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2021)The crucial role of the hypothalamus in the pathogenesis of obesity is widely recognized, while the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms involved are the focus of intense research. A disrupted ... -
Hypothalamic endocannabinoids inversely correlate with the development of diet-induced obesity in male and female mice
(Journal of Lipid Research, 2019-07)The endocannabinoid (eCB) system regulates energy homeostasis and is linked to obesity development. However, the exact dynamic and regulation of eCBs in the hypothalamus during obesity progression remain ... -
Hypothalamic regulation of obesity
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021)Obesity has now reached pandemic proportions and represents a major socioeconomic and health problem in our societies. Up to now, obesity has been considered a medical issue only in high-income countries, ... -
Identification of conserved amino acid residues in rat liver carnitine palmitoyltransferase I critical for malonyl-CoA inhibition. Mutation of methionine 593 abolishes malonyl-CoA inhibition
(Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003-03-14)Carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) I, which catalyzes the conversion of palmitoyl-CoA to palmitoylcarnitine facilitating its transport through the mitochondrial membranes, is inhibited by malonyl-CoA. ... -
Identification of target mRNAs of regulatory RNA-binding proteins using mRNP immunopurification and microarrays
(Nature Protocols, 2007)RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) frequently regulate the post-transcriptional fate of target mRNAs. To identify novel target mRNAs of RBPs, we incubate total RNA with recombinant RBP and immunoselect the ... -
Identification of the ghrelin and cannabinoid CB2 receptor heteromer functionality and marked upregulation in striatal neurons from offspring of mice under a high-fat diet
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021)Cannabinoids have been reported as orexigenic, i.e., as promoting food intake that, among others, is controlled by the so-called “hunger” hormone, ghrelin. The aim of this paper was to look for functional ... -
The immediate effect of informational manual therapy for improving quiet standing and bodily pain in university population
(International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021)Background: The Informational Manual Therapy (IMT) is a therapeutic touch. This study aims to assess the effect of IMT on quiet standing, pain and health status in university population. Methods: An ... -
Immediate effects of TECAR therapy on gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscles with spastic hypertonia in chronic stroke survivors: a randomized controlled trial
(Biomedicines, 2023)Background: The aim of this study was to assess changes in muscle properties after a single session of capacitive and resistive energetic transfer (TECAR) therapy on spastic gastrocnemius and quadriceps ... -
Immobilization of BMP-2 and VEGF within multilayered polydopamine-coated scaffolds and the resulting osteogenic and angiogenic synergy of co-cultured human mesenchymal stem cells and human endothelial progenitor cells
