Research Area

The research activity focuses on the study of natural compounds, natural and synthetic compounds with pharmacological activity mainly at cardiovascular level, also in relation to aging. The search lines are:

1. detection of the antiglycation and the antioxidant activities (TPC, TFC, DPPH, ORAC, gly-BSA, HUVEC) of potential pharmacological agents;
2. pharmacological study of new agents in the treatment of metabolic diseases.

Thesis proposals

Research theses concerning the study of natural and synthetic compounds with antiglycation and anti-inflammatory activities on the cardiovascular system. Experimental studies are carried out with several in vitro models.

Theses concerning single new pharmacological classes with particular attention to bibliographic research on effectiveness, pharmacokinetics and side effects of drugs.
