Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of gut microbiota on diabetes mellitus
TL;DR: In this article, the authors address the pathogenic association between the human colonic microbiota and diabetes and explore any novel related therapeutic targets to prevent or slow the development of diabetes in susceptible individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Altered plasma cytokine levels in Alzheimer's disease: correlation with the disease progression.
TL;DR: The data indicate that plasma levels of these inflammatory molecules follow the degree of AD suggesting a gradual decline of immune responsiveness in AD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immuno-modulatory effects of vitamin D3 in human monocyte and macrophages.
M. Di Rosa,Giulia Malaguarnera,C. De Gregorio,Maria Elisabetta Palumbo,Giuseppe Nunnari,Lucia Malaguarnera +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that 1α,25-(OH)(2)D(3) influences macrophages chemotaxis and differently modulates the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and TLRs in the two different stages of monocytes/macrophage maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chitotriosidase gene expression in Kupffer cells from patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Lucia Malaguarnera,M. Di Rosa,Anna Maria Zambito,Nicola dell'Ombra,Ferdinando Nicoletti,Mariano Malaguarnera +5 more
TL;DR: Human Kupffer cells in NASH patients overproduce chitotriosidase, which may play a role in increasing the risk for a poor outcome in steatohepatitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and lipopolysaccharide promote chitotriosidase gene expression in human macrophages.
TL;DR: Evaluated the CHIT1 mRNA levels in human monocytes/macrophages following treatment with interferon‐gamma (IFNγ), tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNFα), and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and showed that Chit plays a role in the response to the activation of INF‐γ‐, TNF‐α‐, and LPS‐driven macrophages.
