We tested the hypothesis that prediction of renal cancer-specific survival can be improved if traditional predictor variables are used within a prognostic nomogram.Two cohorts patients treated with either radical or partial nephrectomy for cortical tumors were used: one (n = 2,530) nomogram development and internal validation (200 bootstrap resamples), second 1,422) external validation. Cox proportional hazards regression analyses modeled 2002 TNM stages, tumor size, Fuhrman grade,...
Immunotherapy may provide valid alternative therapy for patients with hormone-refractory metastatic prostate cancer. However, if the tumor environment exerts a suppressive action on antigen-specific tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), immunotherapy will achieve little, any, success. In this study, we analyzed modulation of TIL responses by using collagen gel matrix–supported organ cultures human carcinomas. Our results indicate that prostatic adenocarcinomas are infiltrated terminally...
COVID-19 pandemic represents a novel challenge for healthcare systems, and it affects even the daily urological practice. Italy was first country after China to experience lock-down period. Our objective is determine whether, during period, there has been any modification in emergencies.we retrospectively reviewed urgent consultations requested by Emergency Department (ED) of Padua University Hospital 36-day period between February 22nd March 30th, 2020 compared them prior year cases within...
There is presently no effective therapy for relapsing, metastatic, androgen-independent prostate cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibody-vehicled toxins (Immunotoxins, ITs) may be a promising novel treatment option the management of cancer in these cases.Three anti-prostate specific membrane antigen (anti-PSMA) monoclonals (J591, PEQ226.5, and PM2P079.1) were cross-linked to ricin A-chain (RTA; native or recombinant), their cytotoxic effects investigated monolayer three-dimensional...
Numerous lines of evidence indicate that adrenal medulla exerts a paracrine control on the secretory activity cortex by releasing catecholamines and several regulatory peptides. Adrenomedullin (ADM) is contained in mammalian species, including humans. Thus, we investigated whether human ADM1-52 modulatory action steroid secretion vitro. Dispersed adrenocortical cells (obtained from gland tail deprived chromaffin cells) slices (including both capsule medulla) were employed. ADM specifically...
Compelling evidence indicates that the endothelium-derived potent vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (ET-1) stimulates aldosterone secretion by interacting with specific receptors. Although two different ET-1 receptors have been identified and cloned, receptor subtype involved in mediating is still unknown. Accordingly, we wished to investigate whether genes of its A B are expressed normal human adrenal cortex. We designed primers for ETA ETB developed a reverse transcription polymerase chain...

Evidence is accumulating that the adrenal medulla exerts a paracrine control on secretory activity of cortex by releasing catecholamines and several regulatory peptides. Pituitary adenylate-cyclase activating peptide (PACAP) contained in mammalian species human pheochromocytomas. Thus, we investigated whether PACAP modulatory action steroid secretion vitro. Adrenal slices (including both capsule medulla) dispersed adrenocortical cells (obtained from gland tail deprived were employed. Both...
To investigate whether sperm recovery is related to clinical features, hormone parameters and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in patients with Klinefelter syndrome (KS).This study provides three interesting insights: (i) the probability retrieve not testicular volume; (ii) TRT does affect retrieval rate (SRR); (iii) reduced levels of LH FSH represent a negative predictor TRT.Classical KS shows karyotype one extra X chromosome all somatic cells manifestations characterized by...
