Journal ArticleDOI
Differences of myocardial systolic deformation and correlates of diastolic function in competitive rowers and young hypertensives: a speckle-tracking echocardiography study.

TL;DR: The hearts of young patients with hypertension are characterized by reduced GLS, whereas global circumferential strain, global radial strain, and torsion are similar to those of athletes' hearts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-Surface Receptors Transactivation Mediated by G Protein-Coupled Receptors
Fabio Cattaneo,Germano Guerra,Melania Parisi,Marta De Marinis,Domenico Tafuri,Mariapia Cinelli,Rosario Ammendola +6 more
TL;DR: The main mechanisms of G PCR-mediated cell-surface receptors transactivation and the pathways involved in intracellular responses induced by GPCR agonists are discussed to suggest the design of novel strategies for therapeutic interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Store-operated Ca2+ entry is remodelled and controls in vitro angiogenesis in endothelial progenitor cells isolated from tumoral patients.
Francesco Lodola,Umberto Laforenza,Elisa Bonetti,Dmitry Lim,Silvia Dragoni,Cinzia Bottino,Hwei Ling Ong,Germano Guerra,Carlo Ganini,Margherita Massa,M. Manzoni,Indu S. Ambudkar,Armando A. Genazzani,Vittorio Rosti,Paolo Pedrazzoli,Franco Tanzi,Francesco Moccia,Camillo Porta +17 more
TL;DR: SOCE is remodelled in EPCs from RCC patients and stands out as a novel molecular target to interfere with RCC vascularisation due to its ability to control proliferation and tubulogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Different patterns of extracellular matrix protein expression in the convexity and the concavity of the dilated aorta with bicuspid aortic valve: preliminary results
Maurizio Cotrufo,Alessandro Della Corte,Luca Salvatore De Santo,Cesare Quarto,Marisa De Feo,Giampaolo Romano,Cristiano Amarelli,Michelangelo Scardone,Franca Di Meglio,Germano Guerra,Maria Scarano,Serena Vitale,Clotilde Castaldo,Stefania Montagnani +13 more
TL;DR: An asymmetric pattern of matrix protein expression was found that was consistent with the asymmetry in wall-stress distribution reported previously, and differences exist between patients with stenosis and those with regurgitation in terms of protein expression and content in the aortic wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular endothelial growth factor stimulates endothelial colony forming cells proliferation and tubulogenesis by inducing oscillations in intracellular Ca2+ concentration
Silvia Dragoni,Umberto Laforenza,Elisa Bonetti,Francesco Lodola,Cinzia Bottino,Roberto Berra-Romani,Giacomo Carlo Bongio,Maria Pia Cinelli,Germano Guerra,Paolo Pedrazzoli,Vittorio Rosti,Franco Tanzi,Francesco Moccia +12 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the nature and the role of VEGF‐elicited Ca2+ signals in ECFCs indicates that V EGF‐induced Ca2+.
