Brunetti G, Faienza M, Colaianni G, Gigante I, Oranger A, Pignataro P, et al.
J Bone Miner Res . 2017 Nov; 33(4):704-719. PMID: 29178458
Multiple cytokines produced by immune cells induce remodeling and aid in maintaining bone homeostasis through differentiation of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Here, we investigate bone remodeling controlled by the...

Colaianni G, Mongelli T, Cuscito C, Pignataro P, Lippo L, Spiro G, et al.
Sci Rep . 2017 Jun; 7(1):2811. PMID: 28588307
We previously showed that Irisin, a myokine released from skeletal muscle after physical exercise, plays a central role in the control of bone mass. Here we report that treatment with...

Oranger A, Brunetti G, Colaianni G, Tamma R, Carbone C, Lippo L, et al.
Bone . 2017 Mar; 101:26-36. PMID: 28267633
Sclerostin, negative regulator of bone formation, has been originally known as an osteocyte product. Recently, it has been also detected in hypertrophic chondrocytes, distinctive cells of avascular cartilage which is...

Giorgio N, Moretti L, Pignataro P, Carrozzo M, Vicenti G, Moretti B
Muscles Ligaments Tendons J . 2017 Feb; 6(4):467-472. PMID: 28217568
Background: Femoral and tibial tunnel widening (TW) after ACL reconstruction is a phenomenon increasing talk in the literature. It is underlying biological and mechanical causes. Objective: The aim of this...

Colaianni G, Cuscito C, Mongelli T, Pignataro P, Buccoliero C, Liu P, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2015 Sep; 112(39):12157-62. PMID: 26374841
It is unclear how physical activity stimulates new bone synthesis. We explored whether irisin, a newly discovered myokine released upon physical activity, displays anabolic actions on the skeleton. Young male...

Brunetti G, Oranger A, Mori G, Sardone F, Pignataro P, Coricciati M, et al.
Front Biosci (Elite Ed) . 2011 May; 3(3):1154-61. PMID: 21622121
Although osteoclasts (OCs) differentiate under the control of RANK/RANKL/OPG system, a number of inflammatory cytokines can contribute to increase osteoclastogenesis in diseases associated with bone loss. Recently, different studies indicate...

Brunetti G, Oranger A, Mori G, Tamma R, Di Benedetto A, Pignataro P, et al.
Ann N Y Acad Sci . 2007 Jun; 1116:316-22. PMID: 17584981
Control of osteoclast (OC) apoptosis has been recognized as a critical regulatory factor in bone remodeling. TRAIL, a member of the TNF superfamily, induces apoptosis in neoplastic and normal cells....

Colucci S, Brunetti G, Cantatore F, Oranger A, Mori G, Pignataro P, et al.
Apoptosis . 2007 Jun; 12(9):1623-32. PMID: 17558561
The number and activity of osteoclasts (OCs) are critical for maintaining normal bone turnover. The number is determined by the rates of cell differentiation and death. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL),...
