    Abstract Purpose: To describe the current knowledge on thyroid hormonal profile in patients on liquid L-T4 therapy and drugs known to interfere with L-T4 absorption.
    Methods: A PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Scopus research was performed. Case reports, case series, original studies and reviews written in English and published online up to 31 August 2022 were selected and reviewed. The final reference list was defined based on the relevance of each paper to the scope of this review.
    Results: The available data showed that novel levothyroxine formulations circumvent gastric pH impairment due to multiple interfering drugs such as proton pump inhibitors, calcium or iron supplements, sevelamer, aluminum/magnesium hydroxide and sodium alginate.
    Conclusion: New formulations can be taken simultaneously with drugs interfering with L-T4 absorption, in particular liquid formulations. Softgel capsules need more studies to support these data.

    Abstract La Corte costituzionale affronterà a metà novembre 2020 una questione di particolare rilievo: se sia compatibile con il principio di irretroattività della legge penale sfavorevole all’agente (art. 25, co. 2 Cost.) la disciplina emergenziale, introdotta dall’art. 83, co. 2 e 4 d.l. 17 marzo 2020, n. 18 (conv. I. 24 aprile 2020, n. 27), che ha stabilito, relativamente ai procedimenti penali, la sospensione del corso della prescrizione del reato. la questione che la Corte costituzionale è chiamata a risolvere non è per nulla semplice, perché coinvolge profili problematici diversi e di particolare rilievo. I più evidenti, sui quali già mi sono soffermato, riguardano la ratio e la natura della prescrizione del reato, nonché l’ambito di applicazione del principio di irretroattività in rapporto all’istituto stesso. Quello forse meno evidente, ma non meno importante, riguarda l’esercizio della giurisdizione in materia penale – la giustizia come funzione e come servizio – in periodi di emergenza. Qualche riflessione conclusiva, a riguardo, può forse essere utile al dibattito in corso. Terremoti, epidemie e guerre sono eventi eccezionali che ostacolano l’esercizio della giurisdizione penale, rendendo difficile, se non impossibile, accertare fatti e responsabilità e rispondere alle attese di giustizia delle vittime. Quando eventi eccezionali impediscono il normale corso dell’attività giudiziaria, l’alternativa per lo Stato è tra alzare bandiera bianca – rinunciando alla pretesa punitiva e alla correlata tutela dei beni giuridici e delle vittime che li incarnano – oppure sospendere, assieme all’attività stessa, la prescrizione del reato. E’ quel che è avvenuto in occasione dell’emergenza sanitaria in corso e, come si è detto, in occasione di terremoti come quello che ha devastato alcuni anni fa l’Abruzzo.

    Abstract The L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (LD) is the gold standard drug currently used to manage Parkinson's disease (PD) and to control its symptoms. However, LD could cause disease neurotoxicity due to the generation of pro-oxidant intermediates deriving from its autoxidation. In order to overcome this limitation, we have conjugated LD to the natural antioxidant glutathione (GSH) to form a codrug (GSH-LD). Here we investigated the effect of GSH-LD on H

    Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases share a common pathogenetic mechanism involving aggregation and deposition of misfolded proteins, oxidative stress, metal dyshomeostasis, and glutamate exicitotoxicity, which lead to progressive dysfunction of central nervous system (CNS). A potential strategy to counteract these deleterious events at neuronal level is represented by the employment of a novel class of multi-target therapeutic agents that selectively and simultaneously hit these targets In this paper, we report the metal binding and antioxidant properties of a novel metal-protein attenuating peptide, GSH-LD, a tetrapeptide obtained by linking glutathione, a well-known antioxidant tripeptide, to L-Dopa. Results demonstrated that GSH-LD possesses chelating capabilities in order to selectively target the excess of metals without interfere with metal-containing antioxidant enzymes. Moreover, antioxidant assays revealed a large contribution of GSH-LD to restore the antioxidant defences of damaged neuronal cells.

    Abstract To compare the clinical efficacy of tablet and oral liquid L-thyroxine (LT4) formulation in naïve hypothyroid subjects with Helicobacter pylori infection. Forty-seven adult naïve hypothyroid subjects with dyspeptic symptoms were investigated with upper endoscopy and divided into: 28 patients with Helicobacter pylori infection (Group A); 15 patients without gastric alterations (group B); 4 patients with autoimmune gastritis were excluded from the study. Subjects were randomly treated with a same dose of LT4 tablet (TAB) or oral liquid formulation (SOL), for 9 months on group A and 6 months on group B. Helicobacter pylori infection was eradicated after 3 months of LT4 treatment. On group A, after 3 months (before Helicobacter pylori eradication), subjects treated with SOL showed a greater thyroid-stimulating hormone reduction (ΔTSH

    Abstract The influence of αS1-casein (αS1-CN) and κ-casein (κ-CN) polymorphism on the curd yield and 12 other parameters of milk obtained from 89 Italian Mediterranean buffaloes (IMB) was evaluated. IMB milk carrying αS1-CNB and κ-CNX1 variants resulted in a greater curd yield. For these variants, the greater efficiency was attributable to higher content of proteins but not to milk production. In addition, the greater efficiency in curd yield of IMB milk carrying κ-CNX1 (P < 0.05) or αS1-CNB (P < 0.05) was characterised by a higher real curd yield/estimated curd yield (RCY/ECY) ratio. The IMB milk that exhibited the lowest value of RCY contained the κ-CNX1X2 and αS1-CNAB heterozygotes and κ-CNX2 and αS1-CNA homozygotes. IMB milk carrying κ-CNX1 and αS1-CNB, which presented the highest RCY, can be translated into an economic advantage if milk remuneration was done on the actual yield.

    Abstract Background: The common sole (Solea solea) is a promising candidate for European aquaculture; however, the limited knowledge of the physiological mechanisms underlying larval development in this species has hampered the establishment of successful flatfish aquaculture. Although the fact that genomic tools and resources are available for some flatfish species, common sole genomics remains a mostly unexplored field. Here, we report, for the first time, the sequencing and characterisation of the transcriptome of S. solea and its application for the study of molecular mechanisms underlying physiological and morphological changes during larval-to-juvenile transition.
    Results: The S. solea transcriptome was generated from whole larvae and adult tissues using the Roche 454 platform. The assembly process produced a set of 22,223 Isotigs with an average size of 726 nt, 29 contigs and a total of 203,692 singletons. Of the assembled sequences, 75.2% were annotated with at least one known transcript/protein; these transcripts were then used to develop a custom oligo-DNA microarray. A total of 14,674 oligonucleotide probes (60 nt), representing 12,836 transcripts, were in situ synthesised onto the array using Agilent non-contact ink-jet technology. The microarray platform was used to investigate the gene expression profiles of sole larvae from hatching to the juvenile form. Genes involved in the ontogenesis of the visual system are up-regulated during the early stages of larval development, while muscle development and anaerobic energy pathways increase in expression over time. The gene expression profiles of key transcripts of the thyroid hormones (TH) cascade and the temporal regulation of the GH/IGF1 (growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor I) system suggest a pivotal role of these pathways in fish growth and initiation of metamorphosis. Pre-metamorphic larvae display a distinctive transcriptomic landscape compared to previous and later stages. Our findings highlighted the up-regulation of gene pathways involved in the development of the gastrointestinal system as well as biological processes related to folic acid and retinol metabolism. Additional evidence led to the formation of the hypothesis that molecular mechanisms of cell motility and ECM adhesion may play a role in tissue rearrangement during common sole metamorphosis.
    Conclusions: Next-generation sequencing provided a good representation of the sole transcriptome, and the combination of different approaches led to the annotation of a high number of transcripts. The construction of a microarray platform for the characterisation of the larval sole transcriptome permitted the definition of the main processes involved in organogenesis and larval growth.
