Journal ArticleDOI
BRAF/NRAS Mutation Frequencies Among Primary Tumors and Metastases in Patients With Melanoma
Maria Colombino,Mariaelena Capone,Amelia Lissia,Antonio Cossu,Corrado Rubino,Vincenzo De Giorgi,Daniela Massi,Ester Fonsatti,Stefania Staibano,Oscar Nappi,Elena Pagani,Milena Casula,Antonella Manca,MariaCristina Sini,Renato Franco,Gerardo Botti,Corrado Caracò,Nicola Mozzillo,Paolo A. Ascierto,Giuseppe Palmieri +19 more
TL;DR: The findings about the prevalence of BRAF/NRAS/p16CDKN2A mutations in paired tumor lesions from patients with melanoma may be useful in the management of this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
A variant of lymphomatoid papulosis simulating primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8+ cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma. Description of 9 cases.
Andrea Saggini,Andrea Gulia,Zsolt B. Argenyi,Regina Fink-Puches,Amelia Lissia,Mario Magaña,Luis Requena,Ingrid Simonitsch,Lorenzo Cerroni +8 more
TL;DR: This cytotoxic variant of LyP may be histopathologically indistinguishable from primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8-cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma, and may be the source of pitfalls in the diagnosis and classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Occult Melanoma Cells in Paraffin-Embedded Histologically Negative Sentinel Lymph Nodes Using a Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay
Giuseppe Palmieri,Paolo A. Ascierto,Antonio Cossu,Nicola Mozzillo,Maria Letizia Motti,Sabrina M.R. Satriano,Gerardo Botti,Corrado Caracò,Egidio Celentano,R. A. Satriano,Amelia Lissia,Francesco Tanda,M Pirastu,Giuseppe Castello +13 more
TL;DR: Although sensitivity is lowered by the use of paraffin-embedded specimens, data indicate that RT-PCR analysis of serial sections from archival SLNs may be helpful in improving detection of occult micrometastases, thus improving staging of patients with melanoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
BRAF Gene Is Somatically Mutated but Does Not Make a Major Contribution to Malignant Melanoma Susceptibility: The Italian Melanoma Intergroup Study
Milena Casula,Maria Colombino,Maria P. Satta,Antonio Cossu,Paolo A. Ascierto,Giovanna Bianchi-Scarrà,Daniele Castiglia,Mario Budroni,Carla Rozzo,Antonella Manca,Amelia Lissia,Annangela Carboni,Elisabetta Petretto,Sabrina M.R. Satriano,Gerardo Botti,Michela Mantelli,Paola Ghiorzo,Michael R. Stratton,Fraficesco Tanda,Giuseppe Palmieri +19 more
TL;DR: Analysis of either blood DNA from a large collection of MM patients or matched MM tissues from a subset of such patients revealed that BRAF is somatically mutated and does not play a major role in melanoma susceptibility.
Journal Article
Mycobacterium avium sub. paratuberculosis in tissue samples of Crohn's disease patients.
Leonardo Antonio Sechi,Manuela Mura,Francesco Tanda,Amelia Lissia,Giovanni Fadda,Stefania Anna Lucia Zanetti +5 more
TL;DR: The results support the hypothesis that infection may be caused by cell wall defective M. paratuberculosis within the intestinal tissues of patients with the disease.
