Journal ArticleDOI
Exosomes from metastatic cancer cells transfer amoeboid phenotype to non-metastatic cells and increase endothelial permeability: their emerging role in tumor heterogeneity
Odessa Schillaci,Simona Fontana,Francesca Monteleone,Simona Taverna,Maria Antonietta Di Bella,Dolores Di Vizio,Riccardo Alessandro,Riccardo Alessandro +7 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that in a heterogeneous context exosomes released by aggressive sub-clones can contribute to accelerate tumor progression by spreading malignant properties that affect both the tumor cell plasticity and the endothelial cell behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
CD90+ liver cancer cells modulate endothelial cell phenotype through the release of exosomes containing H19 lncRNA
Alice Conigliaro,Viviana Costa,Alessia Lo Dico,Laura Saieva,Simona Buccheri,Francesco Dieli,Mauro Manno,Samuele Raccosta,Carmine Mancone,Marco Tripodi,Giacomo De Leo,Riccardo Alessandro,Riccardo Alessandro +12 more
TL;DR: A new exosome-mediated mechanism by which CSC-like CD90+ cells could influence their tumor microenvironment by promoting angiogenic phenotype and cell-to-cell adhesion is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exosomes as intercellular signaling organelles involved in health and disease: basic science and clinical applications.
Chiara Corrado,Stefania Raimondo,Antonio Chiesi,Francesco Ciccia,Giacomo De Leo,Riccardo Alessandro +5 more
TL;DR: This review will focus on exosomes as intercellular signaling organelles involved in a number of physiological as well as pathological processes and their potential use in clinical diagnostics and therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiogenesis: role of calcium-mediated signal transduction.
TL;DR: The results suggest that calcium-regulated events are important in native and FGF2-stimulated HUVEC proliferation and invasion, perhaps through regulation of F GF2-induced phosphorylation events, and indicate a role for calcium in the regulation of angiogenesis in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A novel community-driven approach to build a comprehensive functional enrichment analysis tool using the existing FunRich tool as a template and inviting researchers to request additional features and/or changes was able to implement 90% of the requested features.
