Journal ArticleDOI
Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia caused by mutations in a putative LDL receptor adaptor protein.
Christine Kim Garcia,Kenneth R. Wilund,Marcello Arca,Giovanni Zuliani,Renato Fellin,Mario Maioli,Sebastiano Calandra,Stefano Bertolini,Fausto Cossu,Nick V. Grishin,Robert Barnes,Jonathan Cohen,Helen H. Hobbs +12 more
TL;DR: ARH appears to have a tissue-specific role in LDLR function, as it is required in liver but not in fibroblasts, and six mutations in a gene encoding a putative adaptor protein (ARH) are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictive Value of the Short Physical Performance Battery Following Hospitalization in Older Patients
Stefano Volpato,Margherita Cavalieri,Fotini Sioulis,G. Guerra,Cinzia Maraldi,Giovanni Zuliani,Renato Fellin,Jack M. Guralnik +7 more
TL;DR: In older acutely ill patients who have been hospitalized, the SPPB provides important prognostic information and lower extremity performance-based functional assessment might identify older patients at high risk of poor outcomes after hospital discharge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of native and oxidized low-density lipoprotein on endothelial nitric oxide and superoxide production : key role of L-arginine availability.
L Vergnani,S Hatrik,Franco Ricci,Angelina Passaro,N Manzoli,Giovanni Zuliani,Viktor Brovkovych,Renato Fellin,Tadeusz Malinski +8 more
TL;DR: Findings confirm the inhibitory role of n-LDL and ox- LDL on NO generation and suggest that lipoproteins may induce a decreased uptake of L-arginine, the other substrate of NO synthase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma cytokines profile in older subjects with late onset Alzheimer's disease or vascular dementia.
Giovanni Zuliani,M. Ranzini,G. Guerra,Laura Rossi,M.R. Munari,Amedeo Zurlo,Stefano Volpato,Anna Rita Atti,Alessandro Ble,Renato Fellin +9 more
TL;DR: The notion of a low-grade systemic inflammation in older patients with LOAD or VD, characterized by an increase in plasma IL-1beta and TNF-alpha levels is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship of Alcohol Intake With Inflammatory Markers and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitior-1 in Well-Functioning Older Adults The Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study
Stefano Volpato,Marco Pahor,Luigi Ferrucci,Eleanor M. Simonsick,Jack M. Guralnik,Stephen B. Kritchevsky,Renato Fellin,Tamara B. Harris +7 more
TL;DR: In well-functioning older persons, light alcohol consumption is associated with lower levels of IL-6 and CRP, and this results might suggest an additional biological explanation to the epidemiological link between moderate alcohol consumption and cardiovascular events.
