Journal ArticleDOI
Signal transduction pathways triggered by selective formylpeptide analogues in human neutrophils
TL;DR: This review will consider the ability of selective analogues (ligands able to discriminate between different biological responses) to activate a single spectrum of signal transduction pathways capable of producing a unique set of cellular responses, hypothesising that a distinctive imprint of signal protein activation may exist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exon skipping-mediated dystrophin reading frame restoration for small mutations.
Pietro Spitali,Paola Rimessi,M. Fabris,Daniela Perrone,Sofia Falzarano,Matteo Bovolenta,Cecilia Trabanelli,Lara Mari,Elena Bassi,Sylvie Tuffery,Francesca Gualandi,Nadir M. Maraldi,Patrizia Sabatelli-Giraud,Alessandro Medici,Luciano Merlini,Alessandra Ferlini +15 more
TL;DR: The obtained results confirm cell‐free splicing assay as an alternative system to test exon skipping propensity when patients' cells are unavailable and highlights the complexity of identifying optimal AONs for skipping exons with small mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dystrophin restoration in skeletal, heart and skin arrector pili smooth muscle of mdx mice by ZM2 NP–AON complexes
Alessandra Ferlini,Patrizia Sabatelli,M. Fabris,Elena Bassi,Sofia Falzarano,Gaetano Vattemi,Daniela Perrone,Francesca Gualandi,Nadir M. Maraldi,Luciano Merlini,Katia Sparnacci,Michele Laus,Antonella Caputo,Paolo Bonaldo,Paola Braghetta,Paola Rimessi +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that PMMA/N-isopropil-acrylamide+ (NIPAM) nanoparticles (ZM2) bind and convey antisense oligoribonucleotides (AONs) very efficiently and this finding reveals arrector pili smooth muscle to be an appealing biomarker candidate and a novel low-invasive treatment end point.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nociceptin/orphanin FQ stimulates human monocyte chemotaxis via NOP receptor activation.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that N/OFQ stimulates human monocyte chemotaxis via NOP receptor activation through the order of potency of agonists and the antagonist selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium Azide Induced Neuronal Damage In Vitro: Evidence for Non-Apoptotic Cell Death
Rita Selvatici,Maurizio Previati,Silvia Marino,Luca Marani,Sofia Falzarano,Irene Lanzoni,Anna Siniscalchi +6 more
TL;DR: The mitochondrial dysfunction induced by NaN3 provides a common platform for investigating the mechanisms of both ischemic and degenerative neuronal injury, useful for screening potential protective agents against neuronal death.
