Peripheral metabolic dysfunction is associated with cognitive frailty in a mouse model of type 2 diabetes

Maria Teresa Venuti, Federico Brandalise, Mattia Cappelletti, Attilio Francesco Speciani et autres

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder increasingly associated with cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration. Peripheral metabolic dysfunction, particularly insulin resistance and glycation stress, represents a critical link between diabetes and brain pathology. This study investigated the relationship between metabolic …

Cyclase-associated protein 2 gene delivery: A potential multi-target approach for preventing synaptic failure in Alzheimer’s disease

Ramona Stringhi, Silvia Pelucchi, Laura D’Andrea, Filippo La Greca et autres

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is marked by synaptic failure, with actin cytoskeleton alterations playing a key role in its pathogenesis. Cofilin, a regulator of actin dynamics in dendritic spines, forms cofilin-actin rods upon exposure to amyloid-β (Aβ) oligomers, contributing to synaptic loss. Cyclase-associated …

Are Reproducible Dietary Patterns Consistently Associated With Disease Outcomes or Their Drivers in Italy? A Systematic Review

Rachele Bianco, Monica Ferraroni, Michela Carola Speciani, Maria Teresa Parpinel et autres

The strength, direction, and trend of associations between specific diseases and reproducible a posteriori dietary patterns (DPs) based on principal component analysis (PCA) or exploratory factor analysis (EFA) have rarely been investigated across populations. We conducted a systematic review of PCA/EFA-based DPs …

Are Major a Posteriori Dietary Patterns Reproducible in the Italian Population? A Systematic Review and Quantitative Assessment

Rachele Bianco, Michela Carola Speciani, Maria Teresa Parpinel, M Tesi et autres

Although a posteriori dietary patterns (DPs) naturally reflect actual dietary behavior in a population, their specificity limits generalizability. Among other issues, the absence of a standardized approach to analysis have further hindered discovery of genuinely reproducible DPs across studies from the same/similar …

Vitamin D and Metabolic Syndrome in Working Age Subjects from an Obesity Clinic

Luisella Vigna, Michela Carola Speciani, Amedea Silvia Tirelli, Francesca Bravi et autres

Serum vitamin D (VitD) levels have been inversely related with metabolic syndrome (MetS), although the direct impact of VitD is still debated. This study examined 879 subjects of working age from an obesity and occupational clinic in Milan, Italy. Among these participants, …

Does Pizza Consumption Favor an Improved Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis?

Roberta De Vito, Maria Teresa Parpinel, Michela Carola Speciani, Federica Fiori et autres

To our knowledge, no studies so far have investigated the role of pizza and its ingredients in modulating disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We assessed this question via a recent cross-sectional study including 365 participants from Italy, the birthplace of pizza. …

An association study of cyclase‐associated protein 2 and frailty

Silvia Pelucchi, Chiara Macchi, Laura D’Andrea, Paolo Dionigi Rossi et autres

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome that results from multisystem impairment caused by age-associated accumulation of deficits. The frailty index is used to define the level of frailty. Several studies have searched for molecular biomarkers associated with frailty, to meet the needs for …

Garlic consumption in relation to colorectal cancer risk and to alterations of blood bacterial DNA

Michela Carola Speciani, Giorgio Gargari, Roberto Penagini, Massimiliano Mutignani et autres

PURPOSE: Garlic consumption has been inversely associated to intestinal adenoma (IA) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, although evidence is not consistent. Gut microbiota has been implied in CRC pathogenesis and is also influenced by garlic consumption. We analyzed whether dietary garlic influence …

Flavonoid Intake in Relation to Colorectal Cancer Risk and Blood Bacterial DNA

Michela Carola Speciani, Marcello Cintolo, Mirko Marino, M. Necat Ören et autres

Flavonoids have been inversely associated to colorectal cancer (CRC) and are plausible intermediaries for the relation among gut microbiome, intestinal permeability and CRC. We analyzed the relation of flavonoid intake with CRC and blood bacterial DNA. We conducted a case–control study in …

Blood Bacterial DNA Load and Profiling Differ in Colorectal Cancer Patients Compared to Tumor-Free Controls

Massimiliano Mutignani, Roberto Penagini, Giorgio Gargari, Simone Guglielmetti et autres

Inflammation and immunity are linked to intestinal adenoma (IA) and colorectal cancer (CRC) development. The gut microbiota is associated with CRC risk. Epithelial barrier dysfunction can occur, possibly leading to increased intestinal permeability in CRC patients. We conducted a case-control study including …

Food-specific serum IgG and symptom reduction with a personalized, unrestricted-calorie diet of six weeks in Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Mattia Cappelletti, Emiliana Tognon, Linda Vona, Katia Basello et autres

BACKGROUND: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a widespread disease with variable symptoms that have an important impact on the quality of life. Despite the prevalence of IBS, its etiology and pathophysiology are still to be fully understood, but immune response is known …
