Citro S, Jaffray E, Hay R, Seiser C, Chiocca S
J Mol Cell Biol . 2013 Sep; 5(6):416-27. PMID: 24068740
Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) is an essential epigenetic regulator belonging to a highly conserved family of deacetylases. Increased HDAC1 activity and expression often correlates with neoplastic transformation. Here we show...

Front Biosci (Schol Ed) . 2013 Jan; 5(2):544-53. PMID: 23277067
Although sharing a common conjugation pathway, SUMO1, SUMO2/3 and SUMO4 seem to play preferential roles in the cell. Recently, many regulatory mechanisms contributing to SUMO paralogs specific modification have emerged....

Citro S, Malik S, Oestreich E, Radeff-Huang J, Kelley G, Smrcka A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2007 Sep; 104(39):15543-8. PMID: 17878312
Phospholipase Cepsilon (PLCepsilon) has been suggested to transduce signals from small GTPases, but its biological function has not yet been clarified. Using astrocytes from PLCepsilon-deficient mice, we demonstrate that endogenous...

Rovati G, Baroffio M, Citro S, Brichetto L, Ravasi S, Milanese M, et al.
Respir Res . 2006 Aug; 7:103. PMID: 16875498
Background: The response to beta2-adrenoceptor agonists is reduced in asthmatic airways. This desensitization may be in part due to inflammatory mediators and may involve cysteinyl-leukotrienes (cysteinyl-LTs). Cysteinyl-LTs are pivotal inflammatory...

Respir Res . 2006 Mar; 7:42. PMID: 16553950
Background: Cysteine-containing leukotrienes (cysteinyl-LTs) are pivotal inflammatory mediators that play important roles in the pathophysiology of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and other inflammatory conditions. In particular, cysteinyl-LTs exert a variety of...

Capra V, Ravasi S, Accomazzo M, Citro S, Grimoldi M, Abbracchio M, et al.
J Cell Sci . 2005 Nov; 118(Pt 23):5625-36. PMID: 16306225
Both cysteinyl-leukotrienes and extracellular nucleotides mediate inflammatory responses via specific G-protein-coupled receptors, the CysLT and the P2Y receptors, respectively. Since these mediators accumulate at sites of inflammation, and inflammatory cells...

Citro S, Ravasi S, Rovati G, Capra V
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol . 2005 Jan; 32(4):326-33. PMID: 15626772
We showed previously that activation of the thromboxane prostanoid (TP) receptor causes human airway smooth muscle (HASM) cells to proliferate, suggesting a role in airway remodeling. This study aimed at...

Capra V, Habib A, Accomazzo M, Ravasi S, Citro S, Levy-Toledano S, et al.
Eur J Pharmacol . 2003 Aug; 474(2-3):149-59. PMID: 12921856
Thromboxane A(2) has been implicated as a mediator of bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma. Modulating agents are currently marketed in Japan and under clinical evaluation in the US, but full characterization...
