Journal ArticleDOI

Lin Zhang,Jose R. Conejo-Garcia,Dionyssios Katsaros,Phyllis A. Gimotty,Marco Massobrio,Giorgia Regnani,Antonis Makrigiannakis,Heidi J. Gray,Katia Schlienger,Michael N. Liebman,Stephen C. Rubin,George Coukos +11 more
TL;DR: The presence of intratumoral T cells correlates with improved clinical outcome in advanced ovarian carcinoma and was associated with increased expression of interferon-gamma, interleukin-2, and lymphocyte-attracting chemokines within the tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticotropin-releasing hormone promotes blastocyst implantation and early maternal tolerance
Antonis Makrigiannakis,Antonis Makrigiannakis,E. Zoumakis,E. Zoumakis,Sophia N. Kalantaridou,Christos Coutifaris,A. N. Margioris,George Coukos,K. C. Rice,A. Gravanis,George P. Chrousos +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that locally produced CRH promotes implantation and maintenance of early pregnancy primarily by killing activated T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of human PECAM-1 in angiogenesis and in vitro endothelial cell migration
Gaoyuan Cao,Christopher D. O'Brien,Zhao Zhou,Samuel M. Sanders,Jordan N. Greenbaum,Antonis Makrigiannakis,Horace M. DeLisser +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence of a role for PECAM-1 in human tumor angiogenesis (independent of VE-cadherin) is provided and it is suggested that duringAngiogenesis PECam-1 participates in adhesive and/ or signaling phenomena required for the motility of endothelial cells and/or their subsequent organization into vascular tubes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress and the female reproductive system
Sophia N. Kalantaridou,Antonis Makrigiannakis,E. Zoumakis,George P. Chrousos,George P. Chrousos +4 more
TL;DR: The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, when activated by stress, exerts an inhibitory effect on the female reproductive system, which is observed in anxiety and depression, malnutrition, eating disorders and chronic excessive exercise, and the hypogonadism of the Cushing syndrome as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of endothelial dysfunction in young women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Maria Kravariti,Katerina K. Naka,Sophia N. Kalantaridou,Nikolaos Kazakos,Christos S. Katsouras,Antonis Makrigiannakis,Evangelos Paraskevaidis,George P. Chrousos,Agathocles Tsatsoulis,Lampros K. Michalis +9 more
TL;DR: This cross-sectional study compared endothelial function in young women with PCOS and regularly menstruating control women to identify the determinants of endothelium-dependent and -independent vascular function and investigate its relationship with body mass index in women withPCOS.
