Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic significance of endothelial dysfunction in hypertensive patients.
Francesco Perticone,R. Ceravolo,Arturo Pujia,Giorgio Ventura,Saverio Iacopino,Angela Scozzafava,Alessandro Ferraro,Massimo Chello,P. Mastroroberto,Paolo Verdecchia,Giuseppe Schillaci +10 more
TL;DR: Endothelium-dependent and -independent vasodilation was investigated in 225 never-treated hypertensive patients by intra-arterial infusion of increasing doses of ACh and sodium nitroprusside by finding no significant differences between the groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rosellina Margherita Mancina,Paola Dongiovanni,Salvatore Petta,Piero Pingitore,Marica Meroni,R. Rametta,Jan Borén,Tiziana Montalcini,Arturo Pujia,Olov Wiklund,Olov Wiklund,George Hindy,Rocco Spagnuolo,Benedetta Maria Motta,Rosaria Maria Pipitone,Antonio Craxì,Silvia Fargion,Valerio Nobili,Pirjo Käkelä,Vesa Kärjä,Ville Männistö,Jussi Pihlajamäki,Dermot F. Reilly,Jose Castro-Perez,Jose Castro-Perez,Julia Kozlitina,Luca Valenti,Stefano Romeo,Stefano Romeo,Stefano Romeo +29 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for an association between the MBOAT7 rs641738 variant and the development and severity of NAFLD in individuals of European descent that seems to be mediated by changes in the hepatic phosphatidylinositol acyl-chain remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association Between Intima-Media Thickness and Wall Shear Stress in Common Carotid Arteries in Healthy Male Subjects
Agostino Gnasso,Claudio Carallo,Concetta Irace,Vitaliano Spagnuolo,G. De Novara,P.L. Mattioli,Arturo Pujia +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that common carotid artery wall shear stress measurement in vivo is reproducible and inversely relates to intima-media thickness, age, systolic blood pressure, and body mass index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beneficial effects of the olive oil phenolic components oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol: focus on protection against cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
Stefania Bulotta,Marilena Celano,Saverio Massimo Lepore,Tiziana Montalcini,Arturo Pujia,Diego Russo +5 more
TL;DR: The present review will describe the biological effects of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, with particular attention on the molecular mechanism underlying the protective action on cardiovascular and metabolic alterations, as demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo experimental studies performed with the isolated compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
PNPLA3 has retinyl-palmitate lipase activity in human hepatic stellate cells
Carlo Pirazzi,Luca Valenti,Benedetta Maria Motta,Piero Pingitore,Kristina Hedfalk,Rosellina Margherita Mancina,Maria Antonella Burza,Cesare Indiveri,Yvelise Ferro,Tiziana Montalcini,Cristina Maglio,Paola Dongiovanni,Silvia Fargion,Raffaela Rametta,Arturo Pujia,Linda Andersson,Saswati Ghosal,Malin Levin,Olov Wiklund,Michelina Iacovino,Jan Borén,Stefano Romeo +21 more
TL;DR: This study identifies PNPLA3 as a lipase responsible for retinyl-palmitate hydrolysis in HSCs in humans and indicates a potential novel link between H SCs, retinoid metabolism and PN PLA3 in determining the susceptibility to chronic liver disease.
