Cadherin and Wnt signaling pathways as key regulators in diabetic nephropathy
(2021)Aim A recent meta-analysis of genome-wide linkage studies (GWLS) has identified multiple genetic regions suggestive of linkage with DN harboring hundreds of genes. Moving this number of genetic loci forward into biological ... -
Cell and extracellular matrix interaction models in benign mesothelial and malignant pleural mesothelioma cells in 2D and 3D in-vitro
(2021)Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive tumour that grows in the pleural cavity. MPM spheroids released in the pleural fluid can form new tumour foci. Cell–cell, cell–extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions ... -
Chondrocyte protein co-synthesis network analysis links ECM mechanosensing to metabolic adaptation in osteoarthritis
(2021)Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common structural OA disorders globally. Incomplete understanding of the fundamental biological aspects of osteoarthritis underlies the current lack of effective ... -
Comparative proteomic analysis of hypertrophic chondrocytes in osteoarthritis
(2015)Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multi-factorial disease leading progressively to loss of articular cartilage and subsequently to loss of joint function. While hypertrophy of chondrocytes is a physiological process ... -
Evidence for Novel Action at the Cell-Binding Site of Human Angiogenin Revealed by Heteronuclear NMR Spectroscopy, in silico and in vivo Studies
(2018)A member of the ribonuclease A superfamily, human angiogenin (hAng) is a potent angiogenic factor. Heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy combined with induced-fit docking revealed a dual binding mode for the most antiangiogenic ... -
HΜGB1/sRAGE levels differ significantly between transudates and exudates
(2021)High mobility group box 1(HMGB1) protein operates as an alarmin with multiple roles in immunity and cell homeostasis. It is highly expressed in epithelial barrier sites and acts via the binding to the receptor for advanced ... -
Influence of AQP1 on cell adhesion, migration, and tumor sphere formation in malignant pleural mesothelioma is substratum-and histological-type dependent
(2016)Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive cancer. MPM cells express aquaporin-1 (AQP1) that in other cancers has been shown to participate in the tumor metastasis processes. However, in MPM patients AQP1 ... -
Investigation and functional enrichment analysis of the human host interaction network with common gram-negative respiratory pathogens predicts possible association with lung adenocarcinoma
(2021)Haemophilus influenzae (Hi), Moraxella catarrhalis (MorCa) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Psa) are three of the most common gram-negative bacteria responsible for human respiratory diseases. In this study, we aimed to identify, ... -
Multiple outcome meta-analysis of gene-expression data in inflammatory bowel disease
(2020)We performed a multivariate meta-analysis of microarray data in Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC), which are the main forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They share similar symptoms but differ in the ... -
P38 MAPK signaling in pemphigus: Implications for skin autoimmunity
(2013)p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) signaling plays a major role in the modulation of immune-mediated inflammatory responses and therefore has been linked with several autoimmune diseases. The extent of the ... -
Persistent Activation of Innate Immunity in Patients with Primary Antibody Deficiencies
(2020)Primary antibody deficiencies (PAD) represent a heterogeneous group of disorders, with common variable immunodeficiency being the most common with clinical significance. The main phenotypic defect resides in the inability ... -
Pleural Effusion IL-33/sST2 Levels and Effects of Low and High IL-33/sST2 Levels on Human Mesothelial Cell Adhesion and Migration
(2019)Interleukin 33 (IL-33) is an alarmin with multiple roles in immunity and cell homeostasis, highly expressed in barrier sites, acting via the suppression of tumorigenicity 2 receptor (ST2). Production of IL-33 and soluble ... -
Silver nanoparticles alter cell adhesion and proliferation of sheep primary mesothelial cells
(2018)Background: Human exposure to engineered nanoparticles has been linked to pleural effusion, inflammation and fibrosis. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used in medical and domestic products, increasing the risk of ... -
Soluble Non-Starch Polysaccharides From Plantain (Musa x paradisiaca L.) Diminish Epithelial Impact of Clostridioides difficile
(2021)Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a leading cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Adhesion of this Gram-positive pathogen to the intestinal epithelium is a crucial step in CDI, with recurrence and relapse of ...
