Journal ArticleDOI
The role of hypoxia and SRC tyrosine kinase in glioblastoma invasiveness and radioresistance
Filippo Torrisi,Nunzio Vicario,Federica M. Spitale,Francesco Paolo Cammarata,Luigi Minafra,Lucia Salvatorelli,Giorgio Ivan Russo,Giacomo Cuttone,Samuel Valable,Rosario Gulino,Gaetano Magro,Rosalba Parenti +11 more
TL;DR: The role of the hypoxic microenvironment and SRC proto-oncogene non-receptor tyrosine kinase in the activation of radioresistance and invasion pathways of glioblastoma is described, providing updated evidences on the involvement of SRC in these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Hallmarks of Glioblastoma: Heterogeneity, Intercellular Crosstalk and Molecular Signature of Invasiveness and Progression
Filippo Torrisi,Cristiana Alberghina,Simona D’Aprile,A. M. Pavone,Lucia Longhitano,Sebastiano Giallongo,Daniele Tibullo,Michelino Di Rosa,Agata Zappalà,F. Cammarata,G. V. Russo,Massimo Ippolito,Giacomo Cuttone,Giovanni Li Volti,Nunzio Vicario,Rosalba Parenti +15 more
TL;DR: The evidence presented provides the promising view that glioblastoma represents interconnected hallmarks that may led to a better understanding of tumor pathophysiology, therefore driving the development of new therapeutic strategies and approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-Frequency Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Is Able to Modulate miRNAs in an Experimental Cell Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Enrica Capelli,Filippo Torrisi,Letizia Venturini,Maria Granato,Lorenzo Fassina,Giuseppe Lupo,Giovanni Ricevuti +6 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the ability of the LF-PEMF to modulate gene expression in cell functions that are dysregulated in AD and that these effects can be modulated with different treatment conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton Therapy and Src Family Kinase Inhibitor Combined Treatments on U87 Human Glioblastoma Multiforme Cell Line.
Francesco Paolo Cammarata,Filippo Torrisi,Giusi Irma Forte,Luigi Minafra,Valentina Bravatà,Pietro Pisciotta,Gaetano Savoca,Marco Calvaruso,Giada Petringa,G.A.P. Cirrone,Anna Lucia Fallacara,Laura Maccari,Maurizio Botta,Silvia Schenone,Rosalba Parenti,Giacomo Cuttone,Giorgio Ivan Russo +16 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the Si306 compound exhibits a radiosensitizing action on the U87 cells causing a synergic cytotoxic effect with PT, overcoming resistance to conventional treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intercellular communication and ion channels in neuropathic pain chronicization.
Nunzio Vicario,Rita Turnaturi,Federica M. Spitale,Filippo Torrisi,Agata Zappalà,Rosario Gulino,Lorella Pasquinucci,Santina Chiechio,Carmela Parenti,Rosalba Parenti +9 more
TL;DR: An update on the current knowledge of neuropathy chronicization processes with a focus on both neuronal and glial ion channels, as well as on channel-mediated intercellular communication in chronic neuropathies is provided.
