TL;DR: It is shown that, 33 months after lentiviral β-globin gene transfer, an adult patient with severe βE/β0-thalassaemia dependent on monthly transfusions since early childhood has become transfusion independent for the past 21 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nuclear phosphoproteins HMGA and their relationship with chromatin structure and cancer
Riccardo Sgarra,Alessandra Rustighi,Michela A. Tessari,Julie Di Bernardo,Sandro Altamura,Alfredo Fusco,Guidalberto Manfioletti,Vincenzo Giancotti +7 more
TL;DR: The structural characteristics of the three nuclear phosphoproteins of the high mobility group A family are outlined and related to their participation in chromatin structure alteration in many biological processes such as gene expression, neoplastic transformation, differentiation, and apoptosis are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional activation of the cyclin A gene by the architectural transcription factor HMGA2.
Michela A. Tessari,Monica Gostissa,Sandro Altamura,Riccardo Sgarra,Alessandra Rustighi,Clio Salvagno,Giuseppina Caretti,Carol Imbriano,Roberto Mantovani,Giannino Del Sal,Giannino Del Sal,Vincenzo Giancotti,Guidalberto Manfioletti +12 more
TL;DR: It is shown that HMGA2 associates with the E1A-regulated transcriptional repressor p120E4F, interfering with p120 E4F binding to the cyclin A promoter, suggesting a mechanism forHMGA2-dependent cell cycle regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proneural-Mesenchymal Transition: Phenotypic Plasticity to Acquire Multitherapy Resistance in Glioblastoma
TL;DR: This review frame this process in the high degree of phenotypic inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity of GBM, which exists in different subtypes, each one characterized by further phenotypesic variability in its stem-cell compartment under the selective pressure of different treatment agents PMT.
Journal ArticleDOI
HMGA1 promotes metastatic processes in basal-like breast cancer regulating EMT and stemness.
Silvia Pegoraro,Gloria Ros,Silvano Piazza,Roberta Sommaggio,Yari Ciani,Antonio Rosato,Riccardo Sgarra,Giannino Del Sal,Guidalberto Manfioletti +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1) protein plays a fundamental role in this process in basal-like breast cancer subtype, and a specific HMGA1 gene expression signature was identified that was activated in a large subset of human primary breast tumours and was associated with poor prognosis.
