Journal ArticleDOI
T-lymphocyte reactivity to the recombinant mycobacterial 65- and 70-kDa heat shock proteins in multiple sclerosis.
Marco Salvetti,Carla Buttinelli,Giovanni Ristori,Maurizio Carbonari,M. Cherchi,Marco Fiorelli,Maria Grazia Grasso,Luigi Toma,Carlo Pozzilli +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that an increased T cell response to mycobacterial hsp70 may be present in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interferon-β therapy specifically reduces pathogenic memory B cells in multiple sclerosis patients by inducing a FAS-mediated apoptosis.
Fabiana Rizzo,Elena Giacomini,Rosella Mechelli,Maria Chiara Buscarinu,Marco Salvetti,Martina Severa,Eliana M. Coccia +6 more
TL;DR: E efficacy of IFN‐β therapy in MS may rely not only on its recognized anti‐inflammatory activities but also on the specific depletion of memory B cells, considered to be a pathogenic cell subset, reducing their inflammatory impact in target organs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of Bacille Calmette-Guérin on the evolution of new enhancing lesions to hypointense T1 lesions in relapsing remitting MS.
Andrea Paolillo,Maria Gabriella Buzzi,Elisabetta Giugni,Umberto Sabatini,Stefano Bastianello,Carlo Pozzilli,Marco Salvetti,Giovanni Ristori +7 more
TL;DR: Whether BCG vaccination affects the proportion of NEL that develop into black holes is investigated, which is a measure of tissue damage that may result either from the severity of the inflammatory process or from primary axonal damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
TET2 gene expression and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine level in multiple sclerosis peripheral blood cells.
Roberta Calabrese,Elisabetta Valentini,Fabio Ciccarone,Tiziana Guastafierro,Maria Giulia Bacalini,Vito A. G. Ricigliano,Michele Zampieri,Viviana Annibali,Rosella Mechelli,Claudio Franceschi,Marco Salvetti,Paola Caiafa +11 more
TL;DR: It is shown that TET2 and DNMT1 expression is significantly down-regulated in MS PBMCs and it is associated with aberrant methylation of their promoters, and 5hmC is decreased in MSPBMCs, probably as a result of the diminished TET1 level.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Italian Twin Project: from the personal identification number to a national twin registry.
Maria Antonietta Stazi,Rodolfo Cotichini,Valeria Patriarca,Sonia Brescianini,Corrado Fagnani,Cristina D'Ippolito,Stefania Cannoni,Giovanni Ristori,Marco Salvetti +8 more
TL;DR: The unique opportunity given by the "fiscal code", an alphanumeric identification with demographic information on any single person residing in Italy, allowed a database of all potential Italian twins to be created, creating the world's largest twin population ever collected.
