Journal ArticleDOI
Anandamide inhibits adhesion and migration of breast cancer cells.
Claudia Grimaldi,Simona Pisanti,Chiara Laezza,Anna Maria Malfitano,Antonietta Santoro,Mario Vitale,Maria Gabriella Caruso,Maria Notarnicola,Irma Iacuzzo,Irma Iacuzzo,Giuseppe Portella,Vincenzo Di Marzo,Maurizio Bifulco +12 more
TL;DR: It is proposed thatCB1 receptor agonists inhibit tumor cell invasion and metastasis by modulating FAK phosphorylation, and that CB1 receptor activation might represent a novel therapeutic strategy to slow down the growth of breast carcinoma and to inhibit its metastatic diffusion in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of olive oil polyphenols on fatty acid synthase gene expression and activity in human colorectal cancer cells
Maria Notarnicola,Simona Pisanti,Valeria Tutino,Domenica Bocale,Maria Teresa Rotelli,Antonio Gentile,Vincenzo Memeo,Maurizio Bifulco,Enzo Perri,Maria Gabriella Caruso +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that HT and OL may induce anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects only in certain human colorectal cancer cell types, with effects are FAS mediated only in SW620 cells after treatment with HT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lactobacillus GG restoration of the gliadin induced epithelial barrier disruption: the role of cellular polyamines
TL;DR: Gliadin modifies the intestinal paracellular permeability and significantly increases the polyamine content in Caco-2 cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oestrogen receptor-related receptor alpha (ERRα) and oestrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) exhibit different gene expression in human colorectal tumour progression
Aldo Cavallini,Maria Notarnicola,Romina Giannini,Severino Montemurro,Dionigi Lorusso,Angelo Visconti,Fiorenza Minervini,Maria Gabriella Caruso +7 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that ERRα, as well as the two ERs, might play a critical role in the progression of the colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti Proliferative and Pro Apoptotic Effects of Flavonoid Quercetin Are Mediated by CB1 Receptor in Human Colon Cancer Cell Lines
Maria Grazia Refolo,Rosalba D'Alessandro,Natascia Malerba,Chiara Laezza,Maurizio Bifulco,Caterina Messa,Maria Gabriella Caruso,Maria Notarnicola,Valeria Tutino +8 more
TL;DR: The experiments, using human colon adenocarcinoma cells, confirmed the anti proliferative effect of quercetin and gave intriguing new insight in to the knowledge of the mechanisms involved and open new perspectives for anticancer therapeutic strategies.
