Arginine deprivation alters microglial polarity and synergizes with radiation to eradicate non-arginine-auxotrophic glioblastoma tumors
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2022)
New approaches for the management of glioblastoma (GBM) are an urgent and unmet clinical need. Here, we illustrate that the efficacy of radiotherapy for GBM is strikingly potentiated by concomitant therapy with the ...

Galectin-3 shapes toxic alpha-synuclein strains in Parkinson's disease.
(Springer, 2023)
Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative and progressive disorder characterised by intracytoplasmic inclusions called Lewy bodies (LB) and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Aggregated ...

Selective deletion of Caspase-3 gene in the dopaminergic system exhibits autistic-like behaviour
(Elsevier, 2021-01-10)
Apoptotic caspases are thought to play critical roles in elimination of excessive and non-functional synapses and removal of extra cells during early developmental stages. Hence, an impairment of this process may thus ...

Inflammatory bowel disease induces pathologicalα-synucleinaggregation in the human gut and brain
(Wiley, 2024-01-16)
Aims According to Braak's hypothesis, it is plausible that Parkinson's disease (PD) originates in the enteric nervous system (ENS) and spreads to the brain through the vagus nerve. In this work, we studied whether ...

Inflammatory Animal Models of Parkinson's Disease
(IOS Press, 2022)
Accumulating evidence suggests that microglia and peripheral immune cells may play determinant roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Consequently, there is a need to take advantage of immune-related models ...

Galectin‑3, a novel endogenous TREM2 ligand, detrimentally regulates infammatory response in Alzheimer’s disease
(Springer, 2019)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which the formation of extracellular aggregates of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide, fibrillary tangles of intraneuronal tau and microglial activation are ...

The Absence of Caspase-8 in the Dopaminergic System Leads to Mild Autism-like Behavior
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
In the last decade, new non-apoptotic roles have been ascribed to apoptotic caspases. This family of proteins plays an important role in the sculpting of the brain in the early stages of development by eliminating excessive ...

Galectin-3 Deletion Reduces LPS and Acute Colitis-Induced Pro-Inflammatory Microglial Activation in the Ventral Mesencephalon
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Parkinson’s disease is a highly prevalent neurological disorder for which there is currently no cure. Therefore, the knowledge of risk factors as well as the development of new putative molecular targets is mandatory. In ...
