Journal ArticleDOI

A germline predictive signature of response to platinum chemotherapy in esophageal cancer.

TL;DR: A genetic signature of response to platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in EC patients is identified and the potential benefit of combining genetic and clinical variables for personalized EC management is disclosed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous neurodegeneration and death pathway activation in neurons and glia in an experimental model of severe chronic epilepsy.

TL;DR: Data support the content that at least in the MP rat model the recurrence of seizures can also sustain cell death mechanisms, thus continuously contributing to the pathologic process triggered by the occurrence of SE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of genetic alterations in cfDNA as a possible strategy to monitor the neoplastic progression of Barrett's esophagus.

TL;DR: In the cfDNA of dysplastic Be patients, the frequency of genetic alterations is statistically higher than that of metaplastic BE patients, suggesting that the use of liquid biopsy could become a minimally invasive diagnostic tool to implement BE patient monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal muscular atrophy pathogenic mutations impair the axonogenic properties of axonal-survival of motor neuron.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether SMA pathogenic mutations located in the N-terminal part of the SMN1 protein affected a-SMN function and found that Tudor domain mutations are functionally relevant not only for FL SMN but also for a- SMN, raising the possibility that also SMN loss of function may contribute to the pathogenic steps leading to SMA.
