AIRWAY SURFACE HYPERVISCOSITY AND DEFECTIVE MUCOCILIARY TRANSPORT BY IL-17/TNF-ALPHA ARE CORRECTED BY BETA-ADRENERGIC STIMULUS
The fluid covering the surface of airway epithelia represents a first barrier against pathogens. The chemical and physical properties of the airway surface fluid are controlled by the activity of ion channels and transporters. In cystic fibrosis (CF), loss of CFTR chloride channel function causes …

MOLECULAR STUDY OF CHROMATINOPATHIES: THE CASE OF RUBINSTEIN-TAYBI AND RETT SYNDROMES
Background: Chromatinopathies are defined as a group of disorders displaying mutations in genes of the epigenetic apparatus and sharing clinical features such as intellectual disability and abnormal growth. Among them, Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is characterized by CBP/p300 …

FUNCTIONAL ROLE OF NON-CODING REGULATORY VARIANTS IN NEUROBLASTOMA
Emerging evidence suggests that non-coding somatic variants in cancer can contribute to disease, mainly by residing in functional regulatory regions and ultimately affecting gene expression networks. However, their interpretation is challenging. In our recent work, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) …

Utilizzo della tecnologia microchip per l'identificazione di geni candidati responsabili dell'aumento di HbF.
Expression of fetal globin is silenced normally in adult life; however, determinants linked and/or unlinked to the globin-gene clusters could modify Hb F expression so it persists into adults. Increased expression in adults offers hope as a cure for sickle cell disease (SCD) and b thalassemia, …

Bioinformatics e Biostatistics applied to research in pediatric genetic disease. Clinical evidence in IFNλ4 polymorphisms associated with HCV infection in patients with beta thalassemia and WGCNA analysis weighted for IFNλ4 genotype rs12979860 to detect RPL9P18 as hub in HCV infected cell.
… predictive than CC. Another polymorphism rs4803221 was analyzed because had independent effects respect to rs12979860. The haplotype tagged by SNP rs12979860 and rs4803221 significantly could improve the viral clearance prediction in infected patients. Neither necrotic-inflammation or …
