Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the main cause of cancer‐related death worldwide and new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. In this study, we have characterized a panel NSC lines for expression coiled‐coil‐domain containing 6 (CCDC6), tumor suppressor gene involved in apoptosis DNA damage response. We show that low CCDC6 protein levels associated with weak response to number Rad51 positive foci. Moreover, deficient cells defects repair via homologous recombination. accordance...

CCDC6 gene product is a pro-apoptotic protein substrate of ATM, whose loss or inactivation enhances tumour progression. In primary tumours, the impaired function has been ascribed to rearrangements and somatic mutations in several neoplasia. Recently, low levels protein, NSCLC, have correlated with tumor prognosis. However, mechanisms responsible for variable tumors not described yet.We show that turnover regulated cell cycle dependent manner. undergoes cyclic variation phosphorylated status...

Abstract Transdermal estrogen therapy is now an accepted form of treatment for postmenopausal osteoporosis. Ninety osteoporotic women were randomized to receive either transdermal (0.05 mg/day 17β-estradiol) and calcium (n = 45) or alone 45). The study period was 2 years. Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry [DXA]) markers bone turnover (alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, hydroxyproline, pyridinoline cross-links) assessed baseline after 1 In...

To investigate the association between muscle mass and functional recovery in men after hip fracture.We investigated 27 of 33 admitted consecutively to a rehabilitation hospital fracture. For each patient, we also studied two control women, matched for age fracture type. Lean (LM) was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) 21.9 +/- 7.5 (mean SD) days occurrence (22.8 7.2 54 women). Appendicular LM (aLM) calculated as sum arms legs. Functional using Barthel index scores....

Histological distinction between typical and atypical bronchopulmonary carcinoids is based on mitotic activity necrosis. Regardless of these two parameters, outcome after surgery often unpredictable. In this study the prognostic value different clinico-pathological factors was retrospectively analyzed in a large series patients with carcinoid.The long-term post-surgical 106 radically treated affected by carcinoid from Italian centers correlated tumor characteristics assessed combining...

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the association between sex and functional outcome after acute inpatient rehabilitation in hip-fracture patients. Design We investigated 1094 1186 people admitted consecutively our hospital because a hip fracture. Functional assessed using Barthel Index scores. efficiency (improvement per day stay length) effectiveness (proportion potential improvement achieved) were calculated. Results median score at discharge from 85 970 women 75 124 men...

Abstract Background Primary malignant brain tumours are more than one-third of all and despite the molecular investigation to identify cancer driver mutations, current therapeutic options available challenging due high intratumour heterogeneity. In addition, an immunosuppressive inflammatory tumour microenvironment strengthens progression. Therefore, we defined immune profiling meningioma glial elucidate role infiltration in these types. Methods Using tissue microarrays 158 samples, assessed...
