Abstract
The Virtual Extensive Read-Across software (VERA) is a new tool for read-across using a global similarity score, molecular groups, and structural alerts to find clusters of similar substances; these clusters are then used to identify suitable similar substances and make an assessment for the target substance. A beta version of VERA GUI is free and available at vegahub.eu; the source code of the VERA algorithm is available on GitHub. In the past we described its use to assess carcinogenicity, a classification endpoint. The aim here is to extend the automated read-across approach to assess continuous endpoints as well. We addressed acute fish toxicity. VERA evaluation on the acute fish toxicity endpoint was done on a dataset containing general substances (pesticides, industrial products, biocides, etc.), obtaining an overall R2 of 0.68. We employed the VERA algorithm also on active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). We included a portion of the APIs in the training dataset to predict APIs, successfully achieving an overall R2 of 0.63. VERA evaluates the assessment's reliability, and we reached an R2 of 0.78 and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.44 for predictions with high reliability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mixed-reality (MxR) implementation in the neurosurgical operating room (OR) is emerging, but the impact of this technology on the nonsurgical OR staff has not been investigated yet. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the nonsurgical OR team's perception of the impact of intraoperative MxR use. METHODS The evaluation occurred in a neurosurgical institution implementing MxR perioperatively on a daily basis for 15 months. The questionnaire measuring the impact of MxR consisted of 5 binary questions and 4 subquestions measured on a 7-point Likert scale. RESULTS Fifteen nonsurgical staff members of a neurosurgical OR team were interviewed. Most (85%) of the cohort stated that MxR changed their perception of the surgery, improving understanding of the spatial orientation (median 6, interquartile range 5-7) and of the pathology dimensions (6, 5.5-7). One participant (7%) was of the opinion that MxR disrupted the OR workflow. The majority (60%) stated that use of the holograms improved efficiency in the OR. The participants were neutral about the potential role of MxR to improve communication among different OR team members (4, 2-5) and overall teamwork (4, 2-5). CONCLUSIONS The use of 3-Dimensional interactive holograms of neurosurgical cases in the nonsterile intraoperative phase was not perceived as distractive, and neither was OR flow disruption by members of the nonsurgical OR staff. MxR was considered an adjunct to improve OR efficiency. A thorough understanding of the impact of MxR's implementation on the nonsurgical staff could lead to targeted improvement of the MxR use and, potentially, to increasing the quality of the teamwork.

Abstract
Using DFT computational methods, single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) are explored in different geometric configurations (armchair, chiral and zigzag) doped with Fe. Geometry, electronic structure and magnetic properties are investigated for all systems, in order to evaluate a potential application of these structures as electrocatalysts in efficient and low-cost fuel cells. In search for a better electrode material, we turn our attention on nature for help. Oxygen molecules are well-known to reveal a remarkable affinity to the heme group. Therefore, we model the adsorption/dissociative behavior of oxygen molecules on carbon nanotubes doped with Fe atoms. We analyze in detail the effect of the chiral nature of carbon nanotubes that governs their electric, magnetic and chemical behavior. Our results indicate that the dissociation phenomenon involving the armchair (5,5) Fe@CNT is more favored than other chiralities and other doped CNT systems, leading to the lowest activation barrier.

Abstract
A sound assessment of in silico models and their applicability domain can support the use of new approach methodologies (NAMs) in chemical risk assessment and requires increasing the users' confidence in this approach. Several approaches have been proposed to evaluate the applicability domain of such models, but their prediction power still needs a thorough assessment. In this context, the VEGA tool capable of assessing the applicability domain of in silico models is examined for a range of toxicological endpoints. The VEGA tool evaluates chemical structures and other features related to the predicted endpoints and is efficient in measuring applicability domain, enabling the user to identify less accurate predictions. This is demonstrated with many models addressing different endpoints, towards toxicity of relevance to human health, ecotoxicological endpoints, environmental fate, physicochemical and toxicokinetic properties, for both regression models and classifiers.

Abstract
Linelike features in TeV γ rays constitute a "smoking gun" for TeV-scale particle dark matter and new physics. Probing the Galactic Center region with ground-based Cherenkov telescopes enables the search for TeV spectral features in immediate association with a dense dark matter reservoir at a sensitivity out of reach for satellite γ-ray detectors, and direct detection and collider experiments. We report on 223 hours of observations of the Galactic Center region with the MAGIC stereoscopic telescope system reaching γ-ray energies up to 100 TeV. We improved the sensitivity to spectral lines at high energies using large-zenith-angle observations and a novel background modeling method within a maximum-likelihood analysis in the energy domain. No linelike spectral feature is found in our analysis. Therefore, we constrain the cross section for dark matter annihilation into two photons to ⟨σv⟩≲5×10^{-28} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 1 TeV and ⟨σv⟩≲1×10^{-25} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 100 TeV, achieving the best limits to date for a dark matter mass above 20 TeV and a cuspy dark matter profile at the Galactic Center. Finally, we use the derived limits for both cuspy and cored dark matter profiles to constrain supersymmetric wino models.

Abstract
Bioconcentration factors (BCFs) are markers of chemical substance accumulation in organisms, and they play a significant role in determining the environmental risk of various chemicals. Experiments to obtain BCFs are expensive and time-consuming; therefore, it is better to estimate BCF early in the chemical development process. The current research aims to evaluate the ecotoxicity potential of 122 pharmaceuticals and identify possible important structural attributes using BCF as the determining feature against a group of fish species. We have calculated the theoretical 2D descriptors from the OCHEM platform and SiRMS descriptor calculating software. The regression-based quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) modeling was used to identify the chemical features responsible for acute fish bioconcentration. Multiple models with the "intelligent consensus" algorithm were employed for the regression-based approach improving the predictive ability of the models. To ensure the robustness and interpretability of the developed models, rigorous validation was performed employing various statistical internal and external validation metrics. From the developed models, it can be specified that the presence of large lipophilic and electronegative moieties greatly enhances the bioaccumulative potential of pharmaceuticals, whereas the hydrophilic characteristics have shown a negative impact on BCF. Furthermore, the developed models were employed to screen the DrugBank database (https://go.drugbank.com/) for assessing the BCF properties of the entire database. The evidence acquired from the modeled descriptors might be used for aquatic risk assessment in the future, with the added benefit of providing an early caution of their probable negative impact on aquatic ecosystems for regulatory purposes.

Abstract
Retinal dystrophies such as Retinitis pigmentosa are among the most prevalent causes of inherited legal blindness, for which treatments are in demand. Retinal prostheses have been developed to stimulate the inner retinal network that, initially spared by degeneration, deteriorates in the late stages of the disease. We recently reported that conjugated polymer nanoparticles persistently rescue visual activities after a single subretinal injection in the Royal College of Surgeons rat model of Retinitis pigmentosa. Here we demonstrate that conjugated polymer nanoparticles can reinstate physiological signals at the cortical level and visually driven activities when microinjected in 10-months-old Royal College of Surgeons rats bearing fully light-insensitive retinas. The extent of visual restoration positively correlates with the nanoparticle density and hybrid contacts with second-order retinal neurons. The results establish the functional role of organic photovoltaic nanoparticles in restoring visual activities in fully degenerate retinas with intense inner retina rewiring, a stage of the disease in which patients are subjected to prosthetic interventions. Retinal dystrophies such as Retinitis pigmentosa are among the most prevalent causes of inherited incurable legal blindness. Here the authors demonstrate that conjugated polymer nanoparticles reinstate visual functions in aged rats with fully degenerated and rewired retinas.

Abstract
Carcinogenicity testing is necessary to protect human health and comply with regulations, but testing it with the traditionally used two-year rodent studies is time-consuming and expensive. In certain cases, such as for impurities, alternative methods may be convenient. Thus there is an urgent need for alternative approaches for reliable and robust assessments of carcinogenicity. The Monte Carlo technique with CORAL software is a tool to tackle this task for unknown compounds using available experimental data for a representative set of compounds. The models can be constructed with the simplified molecular input line entry system without additional physicochemical descriptors. We describe here a model based on a data set of 1167 substances. Matthew's correlation coefficient values for calibration and validation sets are 0.747 and 0.577, respectively. Double bonds between carbon atoms and double bonds of oxygen atoms are the molecular features that indicate the carcinogenic potential of a compound.

Abstract
Heparin has been used successfully as a clinical antithrombotic for almost one century. Its isolation from animal sources (mostly porcine intestinal mucosa) involves multistep purification processes starting from the slaughterhouse (as mucosa) to the pharmaceutical plant (as the API). This complex supply chain increases the risk of contamination and adulteration, mainly with non-porcine ruminant material. The structural similarity of heparins from different origins, the natural variability of the heparin within samples from each source as well as the structural changes induced by manufacturing processes, require increasingly sophisticated methods capable of detecting low levels of contamination. The application of suitable multivariate classification approaches on API 1H NMRspectra serve as rapid and reliable tools for product authentication and the detection of contaminants. Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogies (SIMCA), Discriminant Analysis (DA), Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) and local classification methods (kNN, BNN and N3) were tested on about one hundred certified heparin samples produced by 14 different manufacturers revealing that Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) provided the best discrimination of contaminated batches, with a balanced accuracy of 97%.

Abstract
Industrial needs and regulatory requirements have played a significant role in accelerating the use of nontesting methods including in silico tools as alternatives to animal testing. The main interest is not solely on the use of in silico tools, or in read-across, but on better toxicological safety assessment of substances, and for this purpose more advanced, integrated strategies have to be implemented. VEGAHUB wants to promote this broader view, not necessarily focused on a specific approach. Applying multiple tools and complementary approaches instead of one technique may provide more elements for a more robust evaluation, but at the same time it is important to have a conceptual scheme to integrate multiple, heterogeneous lines of evidence. We will show how the user can benefit from the diversity of tools available within the platform VEGAHUB for assessing the biological properties of chemical substances on an example of (non)mutagenicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Radioactive-iodine (RAI)-resistant differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients benefit from multi-kinase inhibitors (MKIs), such as lenvatinib. Incidence of treatment-related (TR) late toxicities has been not yet described. METHODS From January 2015 to June 2019 we retrospectively reviewed clinical records of patients with RAI-resistant DTC treated with lenvatinib at Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori (Milan, Italy). New side effect of any grade, appeared after 12 months of lenvatinib, was defined as late adverse event (AE). Descriptive analyses were performed. Survival curves were estimated with Kaplan-Meier method and compared with log-rank test. RESULTS Thirty-seven patients were included, 65% had ≥65 years and 68% were female. Thirty patients received lenvatinib for >12 months. Lenvatinib was started at ≤20 mg/daily in 59% of patients, 64% were ≥65 years. The frequency of late AEs was 80% and cardiovascular toxicity was the most common (57%). There was no difference in the incidence of late AEs between younger/older population (77% and 82%, respectively). Median lenvatinib treatment duration (TD) was 39.96 months (95% CI 21.64-NR): 39.96 months for patients <65 years (95% CI: 13.25-NR) and 37.53 months for those ≥65 years, respectively (95% CI: 15.85-NR). Median overall survival (OS) was 39.96 months (95% CI: 21.84-NR), no statistically differences in OS was observed between younger (<65 years) and older patients (≥65 years) (HR 1.013; 95% CI 0.963-1.065; p = 0.62). CONCLUSION Late toxicity burden of lenvatinib is not negligible. Cardiovascular toxicity remains the principal side effect even after a prolonged lenvatinib exposition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic is currently a severe challenge for healthcare workers, with a considerable impact on their mental health. In order to focus preventive and rehabilitation measures it's fundamental to identify risk factors of such psychological impairment. We designed an observational longitudinal study to systematically examine the psychological wellbeing of all employees in a large University Hospital in Italy, using validated psychometric scales in the context of the occupational physician's health surveillance, in collaboration with Psychiatric Unit. METHODS The study started after ethical approval in August 2020. For each worker, the psychological wellbeing is screened in two steps. The first level questionnaire collects sociodemographic characteristics, personal and occupational COVID-19 exposure, worries and concerns about COVID-19, general psychological discomfort (GHQ-12), post-traumatic stress symptoms (IES-R) and anxiety (GAD-7). Workers who score above the cut-off in at least one scale are further investigated by the second level questionnaire composed by PHQ-9, DES-II and SCL-90. If second level shows psychological impairments, we offer individual specialist treatment (third level). We plan to follow-up all subjects to monitor symptoms and possible chronicization; we aim to investigate potential risk factors through univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regressions. RESULTS Preliminary results refer to a sample of 550 workers who completed the multi-step evaluation from August to December 2020, before vaccination campaign started. The participation rate was 90%. At first level screening, 39% of the subjects expressed general psychological discomfort (GHQ-12), 22% post-traumatic stress symptoms (IES-R), and 21% symptoms of anxiety (GAD-7). Women, nurses, younger workers, subjects with COVID-19 working exposure and with an infected family member showed significantly higher psychological impairment compared to colleagues. After the second level screening, 12% and 7% of all workers showed, respectively, depressive and dissociative symptoms; scorings were significantly associated with gender and occupational role. We are currently extending sample size and evaluating subjects over a period of further 12 months. CONCLUSIONS The possibility to perform a systematic follow-up of psychological wellbeing of all hospital workers, directly or indirectly exposed to pandemic consequences, constitutes a unique condition to detect individual, occupational, and non-occupational risk factors for psychological impairment in situations of prolonged stress, as well as variables associated with symptoms chronicization.

Abstract
On January 14, 2019, the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescopes detected GRB 190114C above 0.2 TeV, recording the most energetic photons ever observed from a gamma-ray burst. We use this unique observation to probe an energy dependence of the speed of light in vacuo for photons as predicted by several quantum gravity models. Based on a set of assumptions on the possible intrinsic spectral and temporal evolution, we obtain competitive lower limits on the quadratic leading order of speed of light modification.

Abstract
We report on the isomerization dynamics of an amphiphilic azobenzene that dwells within the plasma membrane. We found that in aggregates formed in water, the isomerization reaction is hindered, while radiative deactivation is favoured. However, once in the membrane, the molecule reacquires its isomerisation capacity. These data fully account for the recently reported experiments in neurons, showing that the amphiphilic azobenzenes are effective light actuators for the modification of the electrical state of the membrane.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of anticarbamylated protein antibodies (CarP), alone and in combination with traditional biomarkers (rheumatoid factor [RF] and anticitrullinated peptide antibodies [ACPA]), in established rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods A commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to assess CarP concentrations in serum samples of 200 established RA and 206 controls (115 healthy donors and 55 patients with other rheumatic diseases). Main outcome measures were sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC; 95% confidence interval [CI]). Difference in accuracy was evaluated by comparison of the respective AUCs. Results A serum CarP cut-off of 1.47 ng/ml or more differentiated patients with RA from controls with 30% sensitivity, 97.1% specificity, and good accuracy (AUC[95%CI] = 0.83[0.79-0.86], P < 0.0001). However, it showed moderate diagnostic accuracy in seronegative RA patients: sensitivity 17.9%, specificity 96.9%, and AUC (95% CI) = 0.69 (0.63-0.75). The diagnostic accuracy of CarP_ACPA and CarP_RF combinations was significantly superior to that of ACPA and RF alone (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.015, respectively), but not to that of ACPA_RF combination (P = 0.089) In addition, the CarP_ACPA_RF combination did not improve the diagnostic accuracy of the ACPA_RF combination (AUC mean difference [95% CI] = 0.006 [-0.001 to 0.015], P = 0.10). The number of positive autoantibodies (0, 1, 2, or 3) was not significantly associated with moderate-severe disease (Disease Activity Score-28 [DAS-28] > 3.2) in adjusted multiple regression analysis. Conclusion CarP has good diagnostic accuracy in established RA but not in seronegative RA. The addition of CarP to ACPA and RF alone or in combination does not significantly enhance the diagnostic accuracy of ACPA_RF combination.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE While CD4+ T-cells are traditionally regarded as the main pathogenic T-cell subpopulation in psoriatic arthritis (PsA), the role of circulating CD8+ T-cells remains poorly characterized. We evaluated the differential representation of CD8+ T-cell subpopulations in peripheral blood (PB) of PsA patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS CD8+IL-17+, CD8+IFNγ+ and CD8+IL-17-IL-22+ T-cells were evaluated by flow-cytometry in 25 consecutive PsA patients, 7 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, 16 patients with psoriasis, and 26 healthy controls (HC). RESULTS We observed a significant expansion of circulating IFN-γ producing CD8+ T-cells in PsA when compared to psoriasis [21.2 (6.9-55.8)% vs. 3.8 (0.7-11.8)%, p < 0.0001] and HC samples [21.2 (6.9-55.8)% vs. 4.05 (0.44-19.8)%, p < 0.0001]. A frequency of circulating IFN-γ producing CD8+T-cells ≥ 9% distinguished PsA from psoriasis patients with a specificity of 84% and a sensitivity of 87.5% [AUC = 0.9 (0.80-0.99), p < 0.0001]. In addition, we found a significant expansion of circulating IL-17 producing CD8+ T cells in RA patients when compared to PsA, psoriasis and HC samples. By contrast, there were no significant between-group differences in the prevalence of circulating IL-22 producing CD8+ T-cells. In PsA patients there was a significant correlation between number of swollen joints and frequency of circulating IFN-γ producing CD8+ T-cells, and between extent and severity of psoriasis and frequency of circulating IL-17 producing CD8+ T-cells. CONCLUSIONS Circulating IFNγ-producing CD8+ T-cells are raised in PsA when compared to psoriasis, suggesting a potential pathogenetic involvement of CD8+ T-cells and IFNγ production in chronic joint inflammation and damage. The significant enrichment of circulating IL-17 producing CD8+ T-cells in RA when compared to PsA warrants functional characterization and confirmation in larger studies. We found no significant enrichment of circulating IL-22 producing CD8+ T-cells in PsA, RA and psoriasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare, low-grade mesenchymal skin tumour, characterized by slow infiltrative growth and common local recurrence, with infrequent distant metastases. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to better clarify clinicopathological characteristics of this tumour and to evaluate the cure rates of Mohs Tübingen technique (MTT) and wide local excision (WLE). Eventually, we perform a literature review to compare our experience with published data. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on 135 patients diagnosed, treated and followed up between 1997 and 2014 at two different institutions. Sixty-two patients underwent to WLE and 73 to MTT. The primary end-points were the following: percentage of recurrences, time to progression and recurrence annual risk rate. Then, the PubMed database was searched for DFSP case series treated with standard surgical resection (SSR), WLE, Mohs' micrographic surgery (MMS) and MTT. The annual risk rate of recurrence calculated and reported for the four separate procedures was pooled to compare them. RESULTS Five of the 62 patients with WLE (8.1%) experienced recurrences after a mean follow-up of 4.7 years; the percentage of recurred patients 9 years after MTT was 5.5%, and the annual recurrence risk rate of 0.6%. Pooling these data with those from literature, the recurrence rate varies from 26% to 60% for SSR, from 0% and 41% for WLE, from 0% and 8.3% for MMS and from 0% to 5.5% for MTT. The lowest annual recurrence risk rate was found for MTT. CONCLUSION Significantly lower recurrence rates were recorded in patients treated with classic or Tübingen Mohs' technique. To the best of our knowledge, our case series is the widest treated with MTT ever described in the literature; these data may be useful to guide clinicians in the choice of the gold standard treatment for Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.

Abstract
Endogenous retroviruses (HERV) are believed to be pathogenic in several autoimmune diseases. Among them, HERV-K viruses have been reported recently to be involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study we have explored the role of humoral immune response against HERV-K as a potential pathogenetic mechanism in RA. Four different peptides from the extracellular portion of the env protein of HERV-K (env-su19-37 , env-su109-126 , env-su164-186 , env-su209-226 ) were selected by bioinformatic analysis on the basis of their putative immunogenicity. Indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was then carried out to quantify antibodies against those peptides on blood samples of 70 consecutive RA patients and 71 healthy controls (HC). Differences between the two groups were analysed using the Mann-Whitney test. Potential correlations between RA laboratory, clinical descriptors and immunoglobulin (Ig)G levels were explored by bivariate regression analysis. Serum autoantibodies against one of four tested peptides of HERV-K (env-su19-37 ) were significantly higher in RA than in HC (19 versus 3%, P = 0·0025). Subgroup analysis showed no association between anti-HERV-K peptide humoral response and clinical, serological and clinimetric RA disease descriptors. Serum from RA patients in our series reacted significantly against HERV-K env-su19-37 peptide in comparison to the general population suggesting a role for the HERV-K- related, secondary antigenic-driven immune response in the pathogenesis of RA. Further studies are needed to confirm these results and to explore the role of this HERV-K surface peptide as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Botanicals are widely consumed all over the world for health purposes, with increased usage in the general population, in many different types of products, including foods and plant food supplements. Several reports support for the beneficial effects of botanicals against gastrointestinal inflammation. However, no studies regarding the anti-inflammatory activity in the gastrointestinal tract of red vine leaves have been reported so far. The present work investigates the biological activity of Vitis vinifera L. water extract (VVWE) from dried leaves in two in vitro models of gastric and intestinal inflammation. The extract was characterized by a validated HPLC-DAD method, and tested on human epithelial gastric (AGS) and intestinal (Caco-2) cells with the aim to investigate the inhibitory effect on IL-8 secretion and promoter activity, before and after in vitro gastric or gastrointestinal digestion. Our results show that the water extract from red vine leaves inhibits TNFα-induced IL-8 secretion and expression in human gastric epithelial cells; the effect should be maintained, although to a lesser extent, after gastric digestion. In contrast, the effect after intestinal digestion is dramatically decreased since degradation of the active components in the gut does not allow the extract to efficiently counteract TNFα or IL-1β induced IL-8 expression and the NF-κB pathway. The main molecular target of VVWE at the gastric level includes TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB and occurs at concentrations easily reachable after PFS consumption based on red vine leaf water extract as the ingredient. Our findings suggest that PFS containing water extracts from Vitis vinifera L. leaves could be useful to inhibit/attenuate gastric inflammation inhibiting IL-8 secretion and expression through impairment of the NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Background and objective: We explored which clinical and biochemical variables predict conversion from clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) to clinically definite multiple sclerosis (CDMS) in a large international cohort. Methods: Thirty-three centres provided serum samples from 1047 CIS cases with at least two years’ follow-up. Age, sex, clinical presentation, T2-hyperintense lesions, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) oligoclonal bands (OCBs), CSF IgG index, CSF cell count, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH-D), cotinine and IgG titres against Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA-1) and cytomegalovirus were tested for association with risk of CDMS. Results: At median follow-up of 4.31 years, 623 CIS cases converted to CDMS. Predictors of conversion in multivariable analyses were OCB (HR = 2.18, 95% CI = 1.71–2.77, p < 0.001), number of T2 lesions (two to nine lesions vs 0/1 lesions: HR = 1.97, 95% CI = 1.52–2.55, p < 0.001; >9 lesions vs 0/1 lesions: HR = 2.74, 95% CI = 2.04–3.68, p < 0.001) and age at CIS (HR per year inversely increase = 0.98, 95% CI = 0.98–0.99, p < 0.001). Lower 25-OH-D levels were associated with CDMS in univariable analysis, but this was attenuated in the multivariable model. OCB positivity was associated with higher EBNA-1 IgG titres. Conclusions: We validated MRI lesion load, OCB and age at CIS as the strongest independent predictors of conversion to CDMS in this multicentre setting. A role for vitamin D is suggested but requires further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No studies are available in the literature on the distribution of different melanoma features and risk factors in the Italian geographical areas. OBJECTIVE To identify the differences in clinical-pathological features of melanoma, the distribution of risk factors and sun exposure in various Italian macro-areas. METHODS Multicentric-observational study involving 1,472 melanoma cases (713 north, 345 centre, 414 south) from 26 referral centres belonging to the Italian Multidisciplinary Group for Melanoma. RESULTS Melanoma patients in northern regions are younger, with thinner melanoma, multiple primaries, lower-intermediate phototype and higher counts of naevi with respect to southern patients; detection of a primary was mostly connected with a physician examination, while relatives were more involved in the south. Northern patients reported a more frequent use of sunbeds and occurrence of sunburns before melanoma despite sunscreen use and a lower sun exposure during the central hours of the day. CONCLUSIONS The understanding of differences in risk factors distribution could represent the basis for tailored prevention programmes.

Abstract
Starting from (but not limited to) their importance in the Italian context, three agricultural substrates, two of fruit origin (grape seeds and plum stones) and one of herbaceous origin (woad), were comparatively tested for both biomethane production and digestate characterization. The anaerobic digestion tests showed that grape seeds had the highest net methane production of 253.0 NmL g volatile solids (VS)(-1), followed by plum stones, whose best resulting net methane production was 174.7 NmL gVS(-1), and finally by woad with a net methane production of 153.1 NmL gVS(-1). Interestingly, the best methane productions of the fruit substrates were obtained with different substrate to inoculum ratios (on a VS basis), 1:1 for grape seeds but 2:1 for plum stones. On the other hand, a three-month ageing of woad caused a limited reduction of methane production. The estimation of obtained degrees of conversion, carried out on a chemical oxygen demand (COD) basis for the specific tests achieving the respective best methane productions, gave values of 48%, 31%, and 33% for grape seeds, plum stones, and woad, respectively. The estimated degrees of conversion were evaluated along with the respective methane productions and substrate COD/VS ratios. The comparison of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra and differential thermal analysis (DTA) profiles, carried out for selected digestates in pairs, revealed some distinctive differences in the relative intensities or presence and absence of particular peaks in the FT-IR spectra and in the relative intensities of the exothermic peaks or horizontal curve shifting of the DTA profiles.

Abstract
B cell receptor (BCR) signalling determines B cell differentiation and may potentially alter T cell-mediated immune responses. In this study we used two transgenic strains of BCR-deficient mice expressing Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein (LMP)2A in B cells, where either follicular and marginal zone differentiation (D(H)LMP2A mice) or B-1 cell development (V(H)LMP2A mice) were supported, and evaluated the effects of skewed B lymphocyte differentiation on lymphoid organogenesis and T cell responses in vivo. Compared to wild-type animals, both transgenic strains displayed alterations in the composition of lymphoid organs and in the dynamics of distinct immune cell subsets following immunization with the self-antigen PLP₁₈₅₋₂₀₆. However, ex-vivo T cell proliferation to PLP₁₈₅₋₂₀₆ peptide measured in immunized D(H)LMP2A and V(H)LMP2A mice was similar to that detected in immunized control mice. Further, clinical expression of experimental autoimmune encephalitis in both LMP2A strains was identical to that of wild-type mice. In conclusion, mice with skewed B cell differentiation driven by LMP2A expression in BCR-negative B cells do not show changes in the development of a T cell mediated disease model of autoimmunity, suggesting that compensatory mechanisms support the generation of T cell responses.

Abstract
The clinical presentation of two different digestive diseases such as Crohn's disease and intestinal tuberculosis may be so similar to induce a delay in correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment (immune suppression versus antibiotic therapy). Herein, we describe the case of a young man from Eastern Europe who came to our observation complaining of clinical symptoms initially misdiagnosed as an inflammatory bowel disease. It is important to keep in mind the possibility of an active tubercular disease, particularly in patients coming from countries endemic for the disease. Morphological findings of sarcoid-like granulomas at biopsy is not enough for a conclusive diagnosis of Crohn's disease, and tuberculosis should be ruled out on the basis of clinical information, laboratory tests and radiological imaging.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to review our experience with regards to patients with cutaneous melanoma diagnosed from 1983 to 2009, followed-up in our Dermatological Department of Novara. METHODS A retrospective study of 762 patients diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma in the Dermatological Department of Novara between 1983 and 2009 was conducted. Information was extracted from our melanoma patient database. The database included demographical, clinical and pathological variables of the patient. Clinical and pathological factors predicting survival were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier curves and the Log-Rank Test (univariate analysis). RESULTS Staging (American Joint Committee on Cancer 2001) of patients (P=0.000), Breslow thickness (P=0.000), primary ulceration and regression of the lesion (P=0.000), type of first (P<0.039) and second recurrence (P<0.011) were strongly correlated with overall and disease free survival. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was not correlated with disease free survival (P=0.153), it influences only overall survival (P=0.007) CONCLUSION: Our results confirms that sentinel node biopsy, Breslow thickness, ulceration, regression, staging, first and second recurrence are important variable for overall survival and disease free survival, sentinel lymph node status influence only overall survival instead.

Abstract
Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) is a nucleolar protein involved in ribosome biogenesis, stress responses and maintaining genome stability. One-third of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) are associated with aberrant localization of NPM1 to the cytoplasm (NPM1c+). This mutation is critical during leukemogenesis and constitutes a good prognostic factor for chemotherapy. At present, there is no clear molecular basis for the role of NPM1 in DNA repair and the tumorigenic process. We found that the nuclear apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1), a core enzyme in base excision DNA repair (BER) of DNA lesions, specifically interacts with NPM1 within nucleoli and the nucleoplasm. Cytoplasmic accumulation of APE1 is associated with cancers including, as we show, NPM1c+ AML. Here we show that NPM1 stimulates APE1 BER activity in cells. We provide evidence that expression of the NPM1c+ variant causes cytoplasmic accumulation of APE1 in: (i) a heterologous cell system (HeLa cells); (ii) the myeloid cell line OCI/AML3 stably expressing NPM1c+; and (iii) primary lymphoblasts of NPM1c+ AML patients. Consistent with impaired APE1 localization, OCI/AML3 cells and blasts of AML patients have impaired BER activity. Cytoplasmic APE1 in NPM1c+ myeloid cells is truncated due to proteolysis. Thus, the good prognostic response of NPM1c+ AML to chemotherapy may result from the cytoplasmic relocalization of APE1 and the consequent BER deficiency. NPM1 thus has an indirect but significant role in BER in vivo that may also be important for NPM1c+ tumorigenesis.

Abstract
Dogs have been shown to use human-directed gazing behaviour and gaze alternation in numerous contexts; however, it is still unclear whether this behaviour can be considered an intentional and referential communicative act. In the current study, adult dogs and preverbal toddlers were tested using the classic unsolvable task paradigm, but varying the attentional stance of the participating audience (the experimenter and the caregiver). The aims were to assess (1) whether dogs and toddlers would use gaze alternation behaviour in similar manners when the task became unsolvable, and (2) whether both dogs and toddlers would take into account the attentional stance of the audience when initiating a communicative interaction. Results indicated that both toddlers and dogs increased their gaze alternation behaviour between the apparatus and caregiver when the task became unsolvable, and toddlers also showed an increase in pointing behaviour. Furthermore, both species showed a capacity to take into account the attentional stance of the audience when manifesting gaze alternation behaviours towards them. Taken together, these results suggest that gaze alternation is both an intentional and referential communicative act and that both species can take into account the need for audience attention when communicating with them.

Abstract
We report a case of a 37-year-old caucasian woman presenting a 1 cm pinkish nodular asymptomatic lesion of the hard palate, slowly growing in the last years. The lesion underwent to biopsy. Histological analysis showed the nevus tissue layered under a continuous squamous epithelium. The stroma contained nests of medium-sized round cells, with regular monomorphous nuclei. The nevus cells were immunohistochemically positive for S-100 protein, while melanin, visualized by Masson-Fontana silver staining, was absent. Therefore a diagnosis of non pigmented melanocytic nevus was formulated. Because of its rarity and to avoid any risk of malignant transformation, a surgical treatment with wide excision was chosen; the surgical wound was previously covered with a membrane of fibrin and autologous platelets, and subsequently sutured, resulting in a total heal. This procedure seems to be the most reliable to approach melanocytic lesions of the oral cavity. Clinical diagnosis of non-pigmented nevi, either flat or protruding, is difficult, because the nevus shows a pinkish colour that is indistinguishable from that of the surrounding mucosa. Moreover, attention is required when similar clinical evidence occurs, because the localization inside the oral cavity may offer several problems of differential diagnosis.
