Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) may precede oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Early detection of OPMDs has a crucial role in OSCC prevention. DNA aneuploidy and chromosomal aberrations are markers of genomic DNA damage and chromosomal instability (CIN), which is involved in cancer d...

Demethyl fructiculin A is a diterpenoid quinone component of the exudates from Salvia corrugata (SCO-1) leafes. SCO-1 was recently reported to induce anoikis in mammalian cell lines via a molecular mechanism involving the presence of the membrane scavenging receptor CD36. However, experiments perfor...

The aim of the study was to address the concept of field cancerization in oral cancer. The presence of genomic aberrations, indicative of chromosomal instability (CIN), in oral distant fields (ODFs) of visually normal and non-dysplastic mucosa at the mirror image from concomitant oral potentially ma...

Due to the distinctive features of oral mucosa, determination of the proteins involved in the formation of “oral protein pellicle” is demanding. The present study investigated the susceptibility of several human basic proline-rich peptides (bPRPs) named P-H, P-D, P-F, P-J, and II-2 as substrates of ...

Human basic proline-rich proteins and basic glycosylated proline-rich proteins are the most complex family of human adult salivary proteins, secreted only by the parotid gland, expressed by the polymorphic PRB1-4 genes. This study reports the results obtained for their characterization in our labora...

Most patients affected by Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) experience a recurrence of the disease because of the spreading of tumor-initiating cells (TICs) beyond surgical boundary. Unveiling and targeting molecular mechanisms causing this process is a logic goal to impair GBM killing ability. In an or...

Mutations of the proto-oncogene KRas, together with the inactivation of the onco-suppressor genes APC and TP53, are considered to have an important role both in the carcinogenesis and in the colorectal tumor progression. The oncogene K-ras has activating mutations, especially in codon 12, in about ...

The aim of this study is to determine if, using antioxidant drugs, it is possible to interfere with the proliferative capabilities of the human glioblastoma (GBM) tumor-initiating cells (TICs). To establish which cellular processes are activated in GBM TICs by the antioxidants NAC, Tiron and Trolox,...

Glioblastomas (GBM) are poorly differentiated astrocytic tumors arising in the Central Nervous System (CNS), which despite aggressive treatments are still characterized by a fatal outcome. Several studies have shown the existence of a subpopulation of cells within glioma tumors displaying cancer ste...
