Zoledronic Acid Induces Significant and Long-Lasting Modifications of Circulating Angiogenic Factors in Cancer Patients
Daniele Santini,Bruno Vincenzi,Giordano Dicuonzo,Giuseppe Avvisati,Cristian Massacesi,Fabrizio Battistoni,Michele Gavasci,Laura Rocci,Maria Cristina Tirindelli,Vittorio Altomare,Massimo Tocchini,Maurizio Bonsignori,Giuseppe Tonini +12 more
TL;DR: This study confirms that zoledronic acid could have an in vivo antiangiogenic property through a significant and long-lasting reduction in serum VEGF levels.
Journal Article
Pamidronate Induces Modifications of Circulating Angiogenetic Factors in Cancer Patients
Daniele Santini,Bruno Vincenzi,Giuseppe Avvisati,Giordano Dicuonzo,Fabrizio Battistoni,Michele Gavasci,Alfredo Salerno,Vincenzo Denaro,Giuseppe Tonini +8 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that pamidronate could have antiangiogenic properties through a significant and lasting decrease of VEGF serum levels, which is one of the possible mechanisms of anticancer activity attributed to bisphosphonates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeated intermittent low-dose therapy with zoledronic acid induces an early, sustained, and long-lasting decrease of peripheral vascular endothelial growth factor levels in cancer patients
Daniele Santini,Bruno Vincenzi,Sara Galluzzo,Fabrizio Battistoni,Laura Rocci,Olga Venditti,Gaia Schiavon,Silvia Angeletti,Federica Uzzalli,Michele Caraglia,Giordano Dicuonzo,Giuseppe Tonini +11 more
TL;DR: It is reported that a repeated low-dose therapy with ZA is able to induce an early significant and long-lasting decrease of VEGF levels in cancer patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enterococcus spp. produces slime and survives in rat peritoneal macrophages
Lucilla Baldassarri,Roberto Cecchini,Lucia Bertuccini,Maria Grazia Ammendolia,Francesca Iosi,Carla Renata Arciola,Lucio Montanaro,Roberta Di Rosa,Giovanni Gherardi,Giordano Dicuonzo,Graziella Orefici,Roberta Creti +11 more
TL;DR: Enterococcal clinical isolates were investigated for the ability to form biofilm on inert surfaces, as a measure of slime production, in an attempt to find new possible virulence factors for these microorganisms to indicate a role of slime for survival in stressful conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Epidemiology and Distribution of Serotypes, Surface Proteins, and Antibiotic Resistance among Group B Streptococci in Italy
Giovanni Gherardi,Monica Imperi,Lucilla Baldassarri,Marco Pataracchia,Giovanna Alfarone,Simona Recchia,Graziella Orefici,Giordano Dicuonzo,Roberta Creti +8 more
TL;DR: Most erythromycin-resistant GBS strains were of serotype V, were erm(B) positive, and belonged to the PFGE type 1/CC1 group, suggesting that macrolide resistance may have arisen both by clonal dissemination and by the horizontal transfer of resistance genes.
