    Vittorio Farina
    Department of Animal Biology, University of Sassari, Italy
    Funct Neurol 19:181-4. 2004
    ..Although transcallosal neurons are usually considered poorly regenerative, their axotomy may therefore induce reactive events...

    Sergio Gadau
    Department of Animal Biology, University of Sassari, Italy
    Neuro Endocrinol Lett 30:515-24. 2009
    ..In the present work attention has been focused on the possible nitrosative effect of hyperglycemia on microtubular network of neuroblastoma and glioma mortalized cell lines, testing the possible neuroprotective effect of testosterone...

    Gianluca Lepore
    Department of Animal Biology, University of Sassari, Italy
    Neuro Endocrinol Lett 27:501-5. 2006
    ..The fact that LH remained unchanged in all experimental groups suggests that the right occipital cortex and the caudal part of the corpus callosum influence testicular steroidogenesis by a pituitary-independent mechanism...

    Valentina Chisu
    Department of Animal Biology, University of Sassari, Italy
    Neuro Endocrinol Lett 27:807-12. 2006
    ..This action seemed to be more effective than in db-cAMP-treated cells. T is suggested, like other substances having antioxidant properties, to be of potential interest in the experimental therapy of neuropathological conditions...
