The peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oilseed crop worldwide. Compared to other common edible vegetable oils, peanut oil contains a higher content of saturated fatty acids (SFAs), approximately 20-40% of which are very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs). To understand the basis for this oil profile, we interrogated genes for peanut…[Read more]

A waterborne exposure also reduced antioxidant gene expression; increased frequency of developmental abnormalities such as bent tails, jaw deformities and pericardial edema; and resulted in lower growth rates and hypoactivity. Overall, a waterborne exposure to PSNPs resulted in higher transfer to the brain and caused greater toxic effects to…[Read more]

Archaeometric study suggested that technological choices slightly changed in a time span of about two centuries, highlighting important markers that allow clustering the contemporary artistic productions. Moreover, a comparison with mortars from temples decorations was provided to better understand the whole artistic context. The archaeometric…[Read more]

We present the case of a 67-year-old woman who suffered recurrent episodes of angioedema of the face and larynx. After thorough biochemical investigations, an acquired deficiency of C1-INH was suspected. To evaluate a potential underlying malignancy, a whole-body FDG-PET/CT was performed and showed solely a marked splenomegaly pointing towards a…[Read more]
