Screening for celiac disease in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease: from research studies to daily clinical practiceGiuseppe Fanciulli
Istituto di Clinica Medica, Universita degli Studi di Sassari
Ann Ital Med Int 20:39-44. 2005..Since screening is a resource-consuming activity, for both patients and clinicians, we suggest that a careful evaluation of the yield of a screening is always warranted before its adoption in the clinical practice...- Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry assay for quantification of Gluten Exorphin B5 in cerebrospinal fluidGiuseppe Fanciulli

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 852:485-90. 2007..Stability studies indicate that GE-B5 in CSF undergoes significant degradation (>55% after 600 min), which is reduced by the addition of protease inhibitors. This is the first reported method for the quantification of GE-B5 in CSF... - Gluten exorphin B5 stimulates prolactin secretion through opioid receptors located outside the blood-brain barrierGiuseppe Fanciulli

Life Sci 71:2383-90. 2002..The present study shows for the first time that an opioid peptide derived from wheat gluten, GE-B5, has an effect on pituitary function when administered ICV; its mechanism of action appears to be mediated via classical opioid receptors... 
Absence of an opioid stimulatory tone on growth hormone secretion in women with microprolactinomaGiuseppe Fanciulli

Dipartimento Struttura Clinica Medica Patologia Speciale Medica, Istituto di Clinica Medica, University of Sassari, Viale San Pietro 8, 07100 Sassari, Italy
J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 833:204-9. 2006..The intra- and inter-day accuracy were 99.6-102.8% and 100.0-101.9%, respectively. The reported assay employs extremely small volumes of CSF, thus allowing the analysis of GE-A5 from both small and large animal models... - Gastrointestinal symptoms and Helicobacter pylori infection in school-age children residing in Porto Torres, Sardinia, ItalyMaria P Dore
Dipartimento di Medicina Clinica Sperimentale ed Oncologica, University of Sassari, Sassari, Italy
Helicobacter 17:369-73. 2012..Helicobacter pylori infection is typically acquired in childhood, and following the acute event, it is thought that most infections remain asymptomatic.
