Journal ArticleDOI

An intronic ncRNA-dependent regulation of SORL1 expression affecting Aβ formation is upregulated in post-mortem Alzheimer's disease brain samples

TL;DR: 51A expression drives a splicing shift of SORL1 from the synthesis of the canonical long protein variant A to an alternatively spliced protein form, which is associated with impaired processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), leading to increased Aβ formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A biocompatible sodium alginate/povidone iodine film enhances wound healing

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the NaAlg/PVPI films are biocompatible and possess healing properties that accelerate the wound closure, and are able to reduce the inflammatory response both in human foreskin fibroblasts after lipopolysaccharide stimulus and in rodents after wound induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selection of Candidate Housekeeping Genes for Normalization in Human Postmortem Brain Samples

TL;DR: The aim of this study is to identify the most stable genes in postmortem human brain samples of patients affected by Alzheimer’s disease suitable as reference genes and it is found that CYC1 and EIF4A2 are the best reference genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards combinatorial targeted therapy in melanoma: From pre-clinical evidence to clinical application (Review)

TL;DR: The anti-melanoma efficacy and mechanism of action of the above-mentioned combinatorial strategies are reviewed, together with the potential clinical application of the most promising studies that may eventually lead to therapeutic benefit.
