Amiano N, Pellegrini J, Morelli M, Martinena C, Rolandelli A, Castello F, et al.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol . 2022 Apr; 12:841741. PMID: 35360105
Alterations of myeloid cell populations have been reported in patients with tuberculosis (TB). In this work, we studied the relationship between myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and monocytes subsets with the...

Klionsky D, Abdel-Aziz A, Abdelfatah S, Abdellatif M, Abdoli A, Abel S, et al.
Autophagy . 2021 Feb; 17(1):1-382. PMID: 33634751
In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our...

Amiano N, Morelli M, Pellegrini J, Tateosian N, Rolandelli A, Seery V, et al.
Sci Rep . 2020 May; 10(1):7472. PMID: 32366931
Tuberculin skin test (TST) and IFN-γ release assays are currently used to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection but none of them differentiate active from latent infection (LTBI). Since improved tests...

Chung Y, Pasquinelli V, Jurado J, Wang X, Yi N, Barnes P, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2018 Feb; 217(11):1821-1831. PMID: 29438524
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is critical in immune regulation, and its role in tuberculosis infection remains unclear. We determined the levels of cAMP in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from...
5.
Rolandelli A, Pellegrini J, Amiano N, Santilli M, Morelli M, Castello F, et al.
Genes (Basel) . 2018 Jan; 9(1). PMID: 29361774
Interferon gamma (IFNG) plays a key role during () infection, and several polymorphisms located in its gene are associated with risk of tuberculosis in diverse populations. Nevertheless, the genetic resistance/susceptibility...
6.
Hernandez Del Pino R, Pellegrini J, Rovetta A, Pena D, Alvarez G, Rolandelli A, et al.
Immunol Cell Biol . 2017 May; 95(8):716-728. PMID: 28546549
Production of IFN-γ contributes to host defense against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. We previously demonstrated that Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-associated protein (SAP) expression on cells from tuberculosis (TB) patients was...

Pena D, Rovetta A, Hernandez Del Pino R, Amiano N, Pasquinelli V, Pellegrini J, et al.
EBioMedicine . 2015 Oct; 2(8):884-90. PMID: 26425695
IFN-γ release assays (IGRAs) are better indicators of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection than the tuberculin skin test (TST) in Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-vaccinated populations. However, IGRAs do not discriminate active and latent...

Rovetta A, Pena D, Hernandez Del Pino R, Recalde G, Pellegrini J, Bigi F, et al.
Autophagy . 2014 Nov; 10(12):2109-21. PMID: 25426782
Protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) requires IFNG. Besides, IFNG-mediated induction of autophagy suppresses survival of virulent Mtb in macrophage cell lines. We investigated the contribution of autophagy to the...

Iakoubova O, Tong C, Rowland C, Luke M, Garcia V, Catanese J, et al.
PLoS One . 2014 Apr; 9(4):e91437. PMID: 24743685
Objectives: A recent genome wide association study (GWAS) by LeMaire et al. found that two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs2118181 and rs10519177 in the FBN-1 gene (encoding Fibrillin-1), were associated...

Tateosian N, Pasquinelli V, Hernandez Del Pino R, Ambrosi N, Guerrieri D, Pedraza-Sanchez S, et al.
Am J Pathol . 2014 Mar; 184(5):1268-73. PMID: 24606882
Interferon (IFN)-γ displays a critical role in tuberculosis (TB), modulating the innate and adaptive immune responses. Previously, we reported that secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) is a pattern recognition receptor...
