Full textPerianal Crohn's disease is a complex and disabling clinical condition. surgical treatment alone is effective in relieving symptoms with sepsis control but it is associated with a low healing rates. The introduction of biological drugs increased the rate of healing of perianal fistulas. However many patients are still not responders to bio-surgical approach. The role of rectal mucosal healing obtained with biologics in these patients is still non well defined yet. The aim of the present study was to investigate possible rescue treatments for these patients. The study analyzed the efficacy and safety of surgical primary repair,such as endorectal advancement flap and biological plug placement,in patients not responders to biologics but who obtained a rectal mucosal healing.

Full textIn chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) prognostic-predictive markers stratify patients into risk categories characterized by similar clinical course and treatment response. The study of specific cytogenetic lesions in FISH and the mutational status of TP53 and IGHV identifies the essential markers to refine prognosis and guides the optimal therapeutic choice. The complex karyotype (CK), defined by the presence of at least 3 chromosomal aberrations, is an independent prognostic marker, predictive of refractoriness to chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) and new agents, whose role in CLL prognostication is emerging. This thesis contains studies focusing the role of this marker. In a first retrospective study on 335 treatment naïve CLL patients, it has been shown that CK and multiple comorbidities have a negative prognostic impact on overall survival (OS), independently from the CLL-IPI score (p=0.002 and p=0.001, respectively), and that CK has also a negative impact on time to first treatment (TTFT) (p=0.012). This study was followed by a review of the literature on the biological basis underlying the development of CK and its prognostic and predictive value in CLL. In a third work carried out on 90 untreated CLL patients with CK, it was investigated the prognostic relevance of qualitative chromosomal alterations (monosomies, trisomies, deletions, balanced translocations, unbalanced rearrangements) and quantitative (≥5 anomalies), and they were related to clinical-biological parameters. This study found that unbalanced rearrangements are associated with higher incidences of TP53 aberrations (p=0.014), monosomies (p=0.004) and the presence of ≥5 anomalies (p=0.003) with a distinct mRNA expression profile, involving genes implicated in cell cycle control and DNA damage response, with possible prognostic and therapeutic meaning, as well as associating with worse OS (p=0.025) and TTFT (p=0.043). In a fourth multicenter study of 522 LLC patients, it was found that the combination of different subtypes of CK with the mutational state of IGHV, can define new prognostic-predictive groups. The CK2 group identified patients with CK and major structural aberrations (13%), the CK1 group indicated all other CK patients associated or not with unmutated IGHV (U-CK1) (41%) and finally the M-noCK group the remaining patients without CK and mutated IGHV. CK2 patients had a significantly shorter TTFT (p<0.0001) and OS (p<0.0001), independent from TP53 mutational status, and showed a worse outcome after CIT (p<0.0005). Finally, a study of 349 LLC patients found that patients with ≥5 chromosomal abnormalities and cases with severe cytogenetic structural abnormalities were related to lower expression of the molecule SLAMF1 (signalling lymphocytic activation molecule family member 1) (p<0.001). SLAMF1 downregulation was associated with unfavorable clinical-biological characteristics (advanced stage, p=0.001; CD38+, p<0. 001; b2-microglobulin level, p<0.001; IGHV unmutated; p<0.001; del11q, p<0.001; TP53 aberrations, p=0.011 and higher-risk CLL-IPI categories, p<0.001), with a negative prognostic impact on TTFT (p<0.001) and OS (p<0. 001), representing a possible substitute for genomic complexity. In conclusion, CK remains a solid prognostic-predictive marker in patients treated with CIT or new agents. The definition of CK as the presence of ≥3 aberrations, should be revisited and understood as an heterogeneous group, whose clinical development will depend not only on quantitative, but also qualitative aberrations. Including karyotype analysis in prospective trials could definitively establish the predictive power of CK.

Full textHSP90 is a molecular chaperone required for activation and stabilization of numerous proteins involved in cell cycling, receptor function, signal transduction and apoptosis pathways. HSP90 is abundant in all cells and is differentially expressed in several tissues during the embryonic development and in stem cells. HSP90 functions as a homodimer with each monomer consisting of three major domains: the N-terminal ATP-domain, the middle domain and the Cterminal dimerization domain. The two major isoforms of this molecular chaperone include HSP90 alpha and beta. The HSP90 beta isoform is ubiquitously highly expressed, whereas the HSP90 alpha isoform is stress-inducible and is over-expressed in many tumors and in stem cells. Both HSP90 alpha and beta are regulated by specific promoters and their reciprocal expression is balanced and is tightly controlled. In patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), higher levels of the HSP90 protein have been associated with poor prognosis. Here, we report transcriptional and translational inhibition of HSP90s in primary blasts from patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). APL is a unique subtype of AML characterized by the presence of the t(15;17) translocation, giving rise to the PML-RAR fusion protein that deregulates the expression of various genes involved in differentiation and apoptosis pathways. APL cells have been shown to be sensitive to all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO). The serine - threonine kinase AKT, plays crucial regulatory roles in different biological processes such as cell differentiation, cell cycle, transcription, translation, metabolism and apoptosis and is a client protein of HSP90. We found that nuclear AKT activity increases during ATRAmediated differentiation of the human APL cell line (NB4). Furthermore, we were able to show that in-vitro treatment of PML-RAR expressing cells (NB4 cells, PR9 cells and primary APL blasts) with ATRA and ATO restores the balanced expression of HSP90. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, we demonstrated that PML-RAR binds to the HSP90 alpha and beta promoter regions, and that treatment of NB4 cells with ATRA induces promoter acetylation of the two HSP90 isoforms. Our study shows for the first time that the presence of the PML-RAR fusion protein inhibits HSP90s expression at the transcriptional level through recruitment of the HDACrepressor complex NCOR in the promoters of HSP90 alpha and beta isoforms. In this line, AKT resulted down-regulated at the protein level in primary APL blasts, where we also demonstrated that PML-RAR negatively regulates the post translational expression of AKT through transcriptional down regulation of HSP90.

Full textI mitocondri sono organelli cellulari fondamentali con diverse funzioni critiche per la vita e la morte cellulare: la produzione di energia attraverso la catena respiratoria, la regolazione dell’apoptosi, il metabolismo del calcio, e la produzione di radicali dell’ossigeno. La disfunzione mitocondriale è un meccanismo patogenetico ricorrente alla base di una serie di condizioni, fisiologiche e patologiche, tra cui le malattie mitocondriali, il diabete, il cancro, varie malattie neurodegenerative, e vari fenomeni di tossicità da farmaci oppure veleni. Pertanto, l’utilizzo di metodi affidabili per lo studio delle attività enzimatiche mitocondriali è un fattore critico per studiare il ruolo dei mitocondri in tali patologie. Tuttavia, recenti osservazioni hanno evidenziato la presenza di diversi problemi analitici significativi derivanti dai protocolli precedentemente pubblicati in letteratura, tali da compromettere in alcuni casi la consistenza dei risultati. Tali problemi riguardano sia la fase pre-analitica, ovvero la fase di preparazione del campione biologico, che la parte analitica vera e propria spettrofotometrica, impattando negativamente la precisione dei saggi, la specificità e la linearità delle cinetiche. I problemi analitici più significativi riportati riguardano in particolare i saggi per il complesso I, III, e CIV, che sono anche gli enzimi più comunemente deficitari nelle malattie mitocondriali. Per sopperire a tali lacune, abbiamo sviluppato dei protocolli analitici ottimizzati per una analisi affidabile delle attività enzimatiche della catena respiratoria (complessi I-IV, I+III, II+III) attraverso un’analisi sistematica dei singoli steps analitici e pre-analitici. Per la fase di sviluppo dei protocolli abbiamo analizzato omogenati muscolari bovini con l’impiego di uno spettrofotometro a singola lunghezza d’onda. Sia l’impiego di un’efficace protocollo di lisi del campione che la scelta specifica di ciascun reagente (buffer, substrato, adiuvanti e detergenti) in un range ristretto di concentrazioni, sono risultati fattori in grado di influenzare enormemente la sensibilità, la specificità analitica e la linearità delle cinetiche. Sulla base dei risultati ottenuti abbiamo quindi selezionato i protocolli che risultassero in profili ottimali in termini analitici, permettendo di superare gran parte dei problemi analitici riportati in particolare a livello dei complessi I, III, IV. Abbiamo quindi effettuato, per la prima volta in letteratura, una analisi delle prestazioni analitiche di questi saggi biochimici, in termini di precisione, specificità rispetto all’aggiunta degli inibitori, e linearità delle cinetiche nel tempo attraverso la creazione di un indice di linearità, e la proporzionalità delle attività enzimatiche rispetto alla concentrazione di proteine. In una seconda fase abbiamo validato l’impiego di questi protocolli per campioni muscolari umani, e successivamente anche per colture cellulari, altre specie animali e organismi (topo, lievito, C. elegans), e vari tessuti murini (fegato, cuore, cervello). Questi protocolli permettono un’ analisi affidabile delle attività enzimatiche della catena respiratoria mitocondriale con l’uso di uno spettrofotometro a singola lunghezza d’onda, e non richiedono l’impiego di mitocondri isolati da tessuti. I protocolli implementati sono adatti per la diagnosi biochimica delle malattie mitocondriali, come per ricerche focalizzate sulla funzione mitocondriale in processi fisiologici o patologici. Questo lavoro fungerà da riferimento per futuri controlli di qualità e processi di standardizzazione nell’ambito della diagnostica specializzata in malattie mitocondriali.

Full textBackground and Aim: HBV reactivation after liver transplantation is due to the persistence of covalently closed circular (ccc) DNA. We investigated the safety of HBV prophylaxis withdrawal in transplanted patients negative for intrahepatic total and ccc-DNA. Methods: thirty HBsAg-positive, HBeAg and HBV-DNA-negative patients at transplant, with undetectable intrahepatic total and ccc-DNA underwent HBIG withdrawal and were continued on lamivudine with monthly monitoring. After 6 months, a second liver biopsy was obtained: patients with confirmed total and ccc-DNA negativity also underwent lamivudine withdrawal and were monitored for additional 6 months, when a third biopsy was obtained. Patients negative for all virological assays were followed-up without prophylaxis for up to 2 years. Results: Twenty-five patients had undetectable total and ccc-DNA in all sequential biopsies and did not exhibit HBV reinfection after a median follow-up of 25.2 months following lamivudine withdrawal. Five patients became HBsAg-positive: one early, after HBIG withdrawal,the other 4 after lamivudine withdrawal. None of these had clinically relevant events. In the first patient HBIG were reinstituted with prompt HBsAg negativization. Of the other 4, only one remained HBsAg-positive with detectable HBV-DNA and mild ALT elevation, and was given tenofovir. In the remaining 3, HBsAg positivity was transient and followed by anti-HBs seroconversion. No antiviral treatment was given to these patients. Conclusions: Patients with undetectable HBV viremia at transplant and undetectable intrahepatic total and cccDNA may undergo cautious weaning of prophylaxis. A minority of them experience transient HBsAg positivization, without clinical or virological events, and some undergo spontaneous anti-HBs seroconversion.
