(Elsevier, 2018)[Abstract] In an effort to develop novel antiamoebic scaffolds having better efficacy than the standard drug metronidazole (IC50 = 1.80 μM) used against Entamoeba histolytica, quinazolin-4(3H)-one Schiff base conjugates ... -
Design, Synthesis, Evaluation and Structure of Allenic 1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D₃ Analogs with Locked Mobility at C-17
(Wiley, 2021-08-11)[Abstract] Vitamin D receptor ligands have potential for the treatment of hyperproliferative diseases and disorders related to the immune system. However, hypercalcemic effects limit their therapeutical uses and call for ... -
DNA Damage in Circulating Leukocytes Measured With the Comet Assay May Predict the Risk of Death
(2021)[Abstract] The comet assay or single cell gel electrophoresis, is the most common method used to measure strand breaks and a variety of other DNA lesions in human populations. To estimate the risk of overall mortality, ... -
Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Exposure on Human Glial Cells and Zebrafish Embryos
(MDPI, 2023-08-01)[Abstract] Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are among the most widely used nanomaterials. They have multiple applications in cosmetics, textiles, paints, electronics and, recently, also in biomedicine. This extensive use ... -
Endocrine and Immunological Parameters in Individuals Involved in Prestige Spill Cleanup Tasks Seven Years After the Exposure
(Elsevier, 2013-06-20)[Abstract] In November 2002 the oil tanker Prestige spilled 63,000tonnes of heavy oil off the northwest coast of Spain, impacting more than 1000km of coastline. A general concern led to a huge mobilization of human and ... -
Evaluation of Okadaic Acid-Induced Genotoxicity in Human Cells Using the Micronucleus Test and γH2AX Analysis
(Taylor and Francis, 2011-06-27)[Abstract] Marine algal blooms have become a public health concern due to increasing frequency in the environment and severity of exposure consequences. Human intoxications produced by phycotoxins occur globally through ... -
Exploring Early Detection of Frailty Syndrome in Older Adults: Evaluation of Oxi-Immune Markers, Clinical Parameters and Modifiable Risk Factors
(2021)[Abstract] Ageing is accompanied with a decline in several physiological systems. Frailty is an age-related syndrome correlated to the loss of homeostasis and increased vulnerability to stressors, which is associated with ... -
First Iron(II) Organometallic Compound Acting as ABCB1 Inhibitor
(Elsevier, 2023-05-13)[Abstract] Five new iron (II) complexes bearing imidazole-based (Imi-R) ligands with the general formula [Fe(η5-C5H5)(CO)(PPh3)(Imi-R)][CF3SO3] were synthesized and fully characterized by several spectroscopic and analytical ... -
Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes in SHSY5Y Cells Exposed to Okadaic Acid by Suppression Subtractive Hybridization
(Springer Nature, 2012-01-27)[Abstract] Background: Okadaic acid (OA), a toxin produced by several dinoflagellate species is responsible for frequent food poisonings associated to shellfish consumption. Although several studies have documented the OA ... -
Induction of Oxidative DNA Damage by the Marine Toxin Okadaic Acid Depends on Human Cell Type
(Elsevier, 2011-03-01)[Abstract] The marine toxin okadaic acid (OA) is the main representative of diarrhoeic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins. Its ingestion induces nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal ache. It has also been found to trigger ... -
Inter-Laboratory Variation in DNA Damage Using a Standard Comet Assay Protocol
(Oxford University Press, 2012-07-27)[Abstract] There are substantial inter-laboratory variations in the levels of DNA damage measured by the comet assay. The aim of this study was to investigate whether adherence to a standard comet assay protocol would ... -
