Charatterization of store-operated calcium entry in the neuroimmune response evoked by ischemic preconditioning in mice subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion
(Università della Calabria, 2021-06-10)Cerebral ischemia is one of the leading causes of death and long-term disability worldwide. Currently approved therapies for ischemic stroke are limited to reperfusion through mechanical recanalization and/or pharmacological ... -
Stromal cells in breast cancer microenvironment: molecular mechanisms involved in tumor progression and potential therapeutic targets
(Università della Calabria, 2021-03-26)Stromal cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) play an important role in breast cancer progression, metastasis and therapeutic outcome. Among stromal cells, Tumor-Associated Macrophages (TAMs) and Mesenchymal Stem Cells ... -
GPER mediates the up-regulation of acid synthase (fasn) intuced by 17B-estradiol in cancer cell and in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs)
(2012-11-26)Activation of lipid metabolism is an early event in carcinogenesis and a central hallmark of many tumors. Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a key lipogenic enzyme catalyzing the terminal steps in the de novo biogenesis of ... -
FoxO3a reactivation restores the sensitivity to the antiestrogen treatment in tamoxifen resistant breast cancer
(2017-06-12)Resistance to endocrine treatments is a major clinical challenge in the management of estrogen receptor alpha positive (ER+) breast cancers (BC). Although multiple mechanisms leading to endocrine resistance have been ... -
Activated FXR inhibits leptin signaling and counteracts tumor-promoting activities of cancer-associated fibroblasts in breast malignancy
(2017-06-12)Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), the principal components of the tumor stroma, play a central role in cancer development and progression. As an important regulator of the crosstalk between breast cancer cells and CAFs, ... -
Stimulatory actions of IGF-I are mediated by IGF-IR cross-talk with GPER and DDR1 in mesothelioma and lung cancer cells
(2017-06-12)Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I)/IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) system has been largely involved in the pathogenesis and development of various tumors. We have previously demonstrated that IGF-IR cooperates with the G-protein ... -
