Maestrini S, Podesta F, Di Blasio A, Savia G, Brunani A, Tagliaferri A, et al.
J Endocrinol Invest . 2004 Feb; 26(10):985-90. PMID: 14759071
The importance of the genetic component on adipose tissue accumulation has been clearly demonstrated. Among the candidate genes investigated, there are those that regulate thermogenesis and, thus, can affect energy...

Podesta F, Meregalli G, Ghelardi R, Del Giudice R, Asnaghi V, Maestroni A, et al.
Am J Kidney Dis . 2001 Sep; 38(3):465-72. PMID: 11532676
Elevated cell Na(+)-H(+) exchange (NHE) activity characterizes diabetic nephropathy (DN), but the mechanisms of this abnormality are unclear. Recent evidence suggests that NHE and the Ca(2+) pump share similar regulatory...

Zerbini G, Podesta F, Meregalli G, Deferrari G, Pontremoli R
J Hypertens . 2001 Jul; 19(7):1263-9. PMID: 11446716
Objectives: Elevated erythrocyte Na+- Li+ countertransport (SLC) rates are commonly found in essential hypertension. We have recently shown that human skin fibroblasts functionally express a phloretin-sensitive Na+-H+ exchange (NHE) which...

Gerhardinger C, McClure K, Romeo G, Podesta F, Lorenzi M
Diabetes . 2001 Jan; 50(1):175-83. PMID: 11147784
IGF-I promotes the survival of multiple cell types by activating the IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR), which signals downstream to a serine/threonine kinase termed Akt. Because in diabetes vascular and neural cells...

Kern T, Tang J, Mizutani M, Kowluru R, Nagaraj R, Romeo G, et al.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci . 2000 Oct; 41(12):3972-8. PMID: 11053301
Purpose: To examine the relationship between early retinal capillary cell apoptosis and late histologic lesions of diabetic retinopathy and to compare the effects of aminoguanidine (AMG) on the retinopathies caused...

Am J Pathol . 2000 Mar; 156(3):1025-32. PMID: 10702418
Diabetes of even short duration accelerates the death of capillary cells and neurons in the inner retina by a process consistent with apoptosis. We examined whether the process is accompanied...

Podesta F, Roth T, Ferrara F, Cagliero E, Lorenzi M
Diabetologia . 1997 Aug; 40(8):879-86. PMID: 9267981
Thickening of basement membranes is an early and characteristic feature of diabetic vessels, but its consequences on the properties of vascular cells remain undefined. We investigated whether and how excess...

Zerbini G, Roth T, Podesta F, Cagliero E, Doria A, Canessa M, et al.
Diabetologia . 1995 Jul; 38(7):785-91. PMID: 7556979
Establishing whether high ambient glucose affects the plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger is relevant to understanding the adverse effects of high glucose on cell replication and the mechanisms of the increased...

Boeri D, Cagliero E, Podesta F, Lorenzi M
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci . 1994 Feb; 35(2):600-7. PMID: 8113010
Purpose: To reconstruct the role played by vascular endothelium in the elevation of circulating von Willebrand factor (vWf) in diabetic patients with microangiopathy and, specifically, to determine whether storage and...
