Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of lymphocyte apoptosis by tumor cell secretion of FasL-bearing microvesicles.
Giovanna Andreola,Licia Rivoltini,Chiara Castelli,Veronica Huber,Paola Perego,Paola Deho,Paola Squarcina,Paola Accornero,Francesco Lozupone,Luana Lugini,Annarita Stringaro,Agnese Molinari,Giuseppe Arancia,Massimo Gentile,Giorgio Parmiani,Stefano Fais +15 more
TL;DR: The data provide evidence for a novel mechanism potentially operating in Fas tumor counterattack through the secretion of subcellular particles expressing functional FasL, which may form a sort of front line hindering lymphocytes and other immunocompetent cells from entering neoplastic lesions and exert their antitumor activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protection by Anti-β-Glucan Antibodies Is Associated with Restricted β-1,3 Glucan Binding Specificity and Inhibition of Fungal Growth and Adherence
Antonella Torosantucci,Paola Chiani,Carla Bromuro,Flavia De Bernardis,Angelina S. Palma,Yan Liu,Giuseppina Mignogna,Bruno Maras,Marisa Colone,Annarita Stringaro,Silvia Zamboni,Ten Feizi,Antonio Cassone +12 more
TL;DR: The study demonstrates that the isotype of anti-β-glucan antibodies may affect details of the β- glucan epitopes recognized, and this may be associated with a differing ability to inhibit virulence attributes of the fungus and confer protection in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terpinen-4-ol, the main component of Melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) oil inhibits the in vitro growth of human melanoma cells.
Annarica Calcabrini,Annarita Stringaro,Laura Toccacieli,Stefania Meschini,Manuela Marra,Marisa Colone,Giuseppe Arancia,Agnese Molinari,Giuseppe Salvatore,Francesca Mondello +9 more
TL;DR: Tea tree oil and terpinen-4-ol are able to impair the growth of human M14 melanoma cells and appear to be more effective on their resistant variants, which express high levels of P-glycoprotein in the plasma membrane, overcoming resistance to caspase-dependent apoptosis exerted by P- Glycoprotein-positive tumor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Binding of Human NK Cell Natural Cytotoxicity Receptor NKp44 to the Surfaces of Mycobacteria and Other Bacteria
Semih Esin,Giovanna Batoni,Claudio Counoupas,Annarita Stringaro,Franca Lisa Brancatisano,Marisa Colone,Giuseppantonio Maisetta,Walter Florio,Giuseppe Arancia,Mario Campa +9 more
TL;DR: Results obtained indicate, for the first time, that at least one member of the NCR family (NKp44) may be involved in the direct recognition of bacterial pathogens by human NK cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
P-glycoprotein-actin association through ERM family proteins: a role in P-glycoprotein function in human cells of lymphoid origin.
Francesca Luciani,Agnese Molinari,Francesco Lozupone,Annarica Calcabrini,Luana Lugini,Annarita Stringaro,Patrizia Puddu,Giuseppe Arancia,Maurizio Cianfriglia,Stefano Fais +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that P-glycoprotein association with the actin cytoskeleton through ezrin, radixin, and moesin is key in conferring to human lymphoid cells a multidrug resistance phenotype.
