Giovannini M, Cerbai F, Bellucci A, Melani C, Grossi C, Bartolozzi C, et al.
Neuroscience . 2008 Apr; 153(3):618-33. PMID: 18406062
Transgenic Centre for Research in Neurodegenerative Diseases 8 (TgCRND8) mice expressing a double mutant form of human amyloid precursor protein represent a good model of Alzheimer's disease, and can be...

Giovannini M, Pazzagli M, Malmberg-Aiello P, Della Corte L, Rakovska A, Cerbai F, et al.
Neuroscience . 2005 Oct; 136(1):15-32. PMID: 16198498
It has been demonstrated that the forebrain cholinergic system and the extracellular regulated kinase signal transduction pathway are involved in the mechanisms of learning, encoding, and storage of information. We...

Boyd-Kimball D, Sultana R, Poon H, Lynn B, Casamenti F, Pepeu G, et al.
Neuroscience . 2005 Apr; 132(2):313-24. PMID: 15802185
Protein oxidation has been shown to result in loss of protein function. There is increasing evidence that protein oxidation plays a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid...

Prosperi C, Scali C, Barba M, Bellucci A, Giovannini M, Pepeu G, et al.
Int J Immunopathol Pharmacol . 2004 Oct; 17(3):317-30. PMID: 15461866
Brain inflammation is an underlying factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease (AD). We investigated, in vivo, whether differences exist in the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective actions of flurbiprofen and its...

Giovannini M, Scali C, Prosperi C, Bellucci A, Pepeu G, Casamenti F
Int J Immunopathol Pharmacol . 2003 Oct; 16(2 Suppl):31-40. PMID: 14552702
Epidemiological studies indicate that long-term treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs reduces the risk of Alzheimer Disease and may delay its onset or slow its progression. Neuroinflammation occurs in vulnerable regions...
6.
Scali C, Giovannini M, Prosperi C, Bellucci A, Pepeu G, Casamenti F
Neuroscience . 2003 Mar; 117(4):909-19. PMID: 12654342
Brain inflammatory processes underlie the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have a protective effect in the disease. The aim of this work was to study in vivo...

Ballmaier M, Casamenti F, Scali C, Mazzoncini R, Zoli M, Pepeu G, et al.
Neuroscience . 2002 Sep; 114(1):91-8. PMID: 12207957
Impairments of cortical cholinergic inputs from the nucleus basalis magnocellularis fundamentally alter information processing and attentional function, thereby advancing the severity of psychopathology in major neuropsychiatric disorders. It was previously...
8.
Scali C, Casamenti F, Bellucci A, Costagli C, Schmidt B, Pepeu G
J Neural Transm (Vienna) . 2002 Jul; 109(7-8):1067-80. PMID: 12111444
The changes in extracellular acetylcholine levels were investigated by microdialysis in the cortex and hippocampus of aging rats after administration of metrifonate (80 mg/kg), rivastigmine (0.75 mg/kg), donepezil (1.5 mg/kg)...

Ballmaier M, Casamenti F, Zoli M, Pepeu G, Spano P
Neuroscience . 2001 Dec; 108(2):299-305. PMID: 11734362
Information processing and attentional abnormalities are prominent in neuropsychiatric disorders. Since the cholinergic neurons located in the nucleus basalis magnocellularis have been shown to be involved in attentional performance and...

Jpn J Pharmacol . 2001 Jul; 86(2):230-5. PMID: 11459126
Brain inflammation underlies the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy may delay the onset of AD. We investigated, in vivo, the effects of NO-flurbiprofen on brain...
