Journal ArticleDOI
Spindle cell lipoma-like tumor, solitary fibrous tumor and myofibroblastoma of the breast: a clinico-pathological analysis of 13 cases in favor of a unifying histogenetic concept
TL;DR: It is postulate that the vimentin+/CD34+ cells of the mammary stroma, the well-known inherent plasticity of which to differentiate toward several mesenchymal lines, provides the explanation for the phenotypic heterogeneity of these neoplasms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammary myofibroblastoma: a tumor with a wide morphologic spectrum.
TL;DR: The incidence of MFB diagnosis has increased in recent years, likely due to the mammographic screening, and this unusual benign tumor may represent a potential diagnostic pitfall, especially when interpreting fine-needle aspiration and/or needle core biopsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Apparent preferential loss of heterozygosity at TSC2 over TSC1 chromosomal region in tuberous sclerosis hamartomas
Caterina Carbonara,Lucia Longa,Enrico Grosso,Gianna Mazzucco,Carla Borrone,Maria Luisa Garrè,Massimo Brisigotti,Giorgio Filippi,Aldo Scabar,Aldo Giannotti,Piero Falzoni,Guido Monga,Gianni Garini,Marzio Gabrielli,Peter Riegler,Cesare Danesino,Martino Ruggieri,Gaetano Magro,Nicola Migone +18 more
TL;DR: None of the seven antioncogenes tested showed loss of heterozygosity, indicating that the loss of either TSC gene product may be sufficient to promote hamartomatous cell growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solitary fibrous tumor of the central nervous system: a 15-year literature survey of 220 cases (August 1996-July 2011).
Michele Bisceglia,Carlos A. Galliani,Giuseppe Maria Giannatempo,Walter Lauriola,Mario Bianco,Vincenzo D'Angelo,Stefano Pizzolitto,Giulia Vita,Gianandrea Pasquinelli,Gaetano Magro,David Ben Dor +10 more
TL;DR: The anatomical distribution of the 220 cases reported so far reveals that most are intracranial and just over one-fifth are intraspinal, and preoperative imaging and intraoperative findings suggest meningioma, schwannoma or neurofibroma, hemangiopericytoma, or pituitary tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protection from experimental autoimmune diabetes in the non‐obese diabetic mouse with soluble interleukin‐1 receptor
Ferdinando Nicoletti,R. Di Marco,Wilma Barcellini,Gaetano Magro,H. U. Schorlemmer,R Kurrle,Michele Lunetta,S. Grasso,P. Zaccone,Pier Luigi Meroni +9 more
TL;DR: The anti‐diabetogenic property of sIL‐1R may not involve major T cell function impairment; accordingly, in parallel experiments, splenic lymphoid cells from NOD mice not challenged with CY, but treated with 2 mg/kg sIL-1R for 5 consecutive days showed a normal distribution of mononuclear cell subsets and maintained their capacity to secrete interferon‐γ and IL‐2 and to proliferate in response to polyclonal mitogenic stimulation with
