Dynamic Nuclear Polarization and the Paradox of Quantum Thermalization.

Physical review letters

De Luca A, Rosso A.
PMID: 26340169
Phys Rev Lett. 2015 Aug 21;115(8):080401. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.080401. Epub 2015 Aug 20.

Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is to date the most effective technique to increase the nuclear polarization opening disruptive perspectives for medical applications. In a DNP setting, the interacting spin system is quasi-isolated and brought out of equilibrium by microwave...

Life cycle tools combined with multi-criteria and participatory methods for agricultural sustainability: Insights from a systematic and critical review.

Sci Total Environ. 2017 Oct 01;595:352-370. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.03.284.

Life cycle (LC) methodologies have attracted a great interest in agricultural sustainability assessments, even if, at the same time, they have sometimes been criticized for making unrealistic assumptions and subjective choices. To cope with these weaknesses, Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis...

Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of potential responses to future high levels of transmitted HIV drug resistance in antiretroviral drug-naive populations beginning treatment: modelling study and economic analysis.

Phillips AN, Cambiano V, Miners A, Revill P, Pillay D, Lundgren JD, Bennett D, Raizes E, Nakagawa F, De Luca A, Vitoria M, Barcarolo J, Perriens J, Jordan MR, Bertagnolio S.
PMID: 26423990
Lancet HIV. 2014 Nov;1(2):e85-93. doi: 10.1016/S2352-3018(14)70021-9. Epub 2014 Oct 14.

BACKGROUND: With continued roll-out of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in resource-limited settings, evidence is emerging of increasing levels of transmitted drug-resistant HIV. We aimed to compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different potential public health responses to substantial levels of...

Therapeutic Approaches to Genetic Ion Channelopathies and Perspectives in Drug Discovery.

Frontiers in pharmacology

Imbrici P, Liantonio A, Camerino GM, De Bellis M, Camerino C, Mele A, Giustino A, Pierno S, De Luca A, Tricarico D, Desaphy JF, Conte D.
PMID: 27242528
Front Pharmacol. 2016 May 10;7:121. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2016.00121. eCollection 2016.

In the human genome more than 400 genes encode ion channels, which are transmembrane proteins mediating ion fluxes across membranes. Being expressed in all cell types, they are involved in almost all physiological processes, including sense perception, neurotransmission, muscle...

Extracellular matrix components in peripheral nerve repair: how to affect neural cellular response and nerve regeneration?.

Neural regeneration research

de Luca AC, Lacour SP, Raffoul W, di Summa PG.
PMID: 25598773
Neural Regen Res. 2014 Nov 15;9(22):1943-8. doi: 10.4103/1673-5374.145366.

Peripheral nerve injury is a serious problem affecting significantly patients' life. Autografts are the "gold standard" used to repair the injury gap, however, only 50% of patients fully recover from the trauma. Artificial conduits are a valid alternative to...

Laparoscopic Treatment of a Retroduodenopancreatic Endometriotic Cyst Observed Postpartum.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A

Piccinni G, De Luca GM, Lafranceschina S, Biondi A, Marzullo A, Gurrado A, Testini M.
PMID: 27513589
J Laparoendosc Adv Surg Tech A. 2016 Aug 11; doi: 10.1089/lap.2016.0319. Epub 2016 Aug 11.

Endometriosis occurs in 5%-10% of fertile women, usually in the pelvic region, such as the ovaries, uterine ligaments, pelvic peritoneum, and rectovaginal septum. A mesenteric endometriotic cyst is an exceptional observation and difficult to diagnose preoperatively. We report a...

Broadband optical transparency in plasmonic nanocomposite polymer films via exciton-plasmon energy transfer.

Optics express

Dhama R, Rashed AR, Caligiuri V, El Kabbash M, Strangi G, De Luca A.
PMID: 27410615
Opt Express. 2016 Jun 27;24(13):14632-41. doi: 10.1364/OE.24.014632.

Inherent absorptive losses affect the performance of all plasmonic devices, limiting their fascinating applications in the visible range. Here, we report on the enhanced optical transparency obtained as a result of the broadband mitigation of optical losses in nanocomposite...

Right ventricle chamber of young trained athletes: morphology and function.

Asian journal of sports medicine

De Luca A, Stefani L, Galanti G.
PMID: 24800003
Asian J Sports Med. 2013 Dec;4(4):281-8. doi: 10.5812/asjsm.34248. Epub 2013 Jun 25.

PURPOSE: The study of the right ventricular (RV) chamber has been recently improved by use of the 3D method. In young asymptomatic trained athletes, RV is not routinely investigated if not in suspected disease. This study is designed to...

Dominance, reproduction and survival in banded mongooses: towards an egalitarian social system?.

Animal behaviour

de Luca DW, Ginsberg JR.
PMID: 11170693
Anim Behav. 2001 Jan;61(1):17-30. doi: 10.1006/anbe.2000.1559.

The banded mongoose, Mungos mungo, is a social species that forms multimale and multifemale family groups. Earlier studies suggest these family groups are relatively egalitarian with small differences in reproductive opportunities among individuals of different rank. In contrast, previous...

Observation of cancellation and second light-induced Fréedericksz transition in nematic liquid crystals.

Optics letters

De Luca A, Nersisyan S, Umeton C.
PMID: 12656500
