Journal ArticleDOI
Multifunctional CD4(+) T cells correlate with active Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
Nadia Caccamo,Giuliana Guggino,Simone A. Joosten,Giuseppe Gelsomino,Paola Di Carlo,Lucina Titone,Domenico Galati,Marialuisa Bocchino,Alessandro Matarese,Alfredo Salerno,Alessandro Sanduzzi,Willeke P. J. Franken,Tom H. M. Ottenhoff,Francesco Dieli +13 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that phenotypic and functional signatures of CD4+ T cells may serve as immunological correlates of protection and curative host responses, and be a useful tool to monitor the efficacy of anti‐mycobacterial therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Helicobacter pylori and Epstein-Barr Virus Infection in Gastric Diseases: Correlation with IL-10 and IL1RN Polymorphism.
Fasciana Teresa,Nicola Serra,Giuseppina Capra,Chiara Mascarella,Cesare Gagliardi,Paola Di Carlo,Sara Cannella,Maria Rosa Simonte,Dario Lipari,Miriam Sciortino,Letizia Scola,Anna Giammanco +11 more
TL;DR: There was no correlation between coinfection and polymorphisms in genes encoding IL-10 and IL-1RN, and it is concluded that various factors can be involved in the development of gastric diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Specific CD8 T-Cells in Patients with Active Tuberculosis and in Individuals with Latent Infection
Nadia Caccamo,Giuliana Guggino,Serena Meraviglia,Giuseppe Gelsomino,Paola Di Carlo,Lucina Titone,Marialuisa Bocchino,Domenico Galati,Alessandro Matarese,Jan Nouta,Michèl R. Klein,Alfredo Salerno,Alessandro Sanduzzi,Francesco Dieli,Tom H. M. Ottenhoff +14 more
TL;DR: Different Mycobacterium tuberculosis specific CD8 T-cell phenotypic and functional signatures between subjects which control infection and those who do not (patients with active disease) are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surveillance of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacilli in a neonatal intensive care unit: prominent role of cross transmission.
Caterina Mammina,Paola Di Carlo,D. Cipolla,Mario Giuffrè,Alessandra Casuccio,Vincenzo Di Gaetano,Maria Rosa Anna Plano,Emma D'Angelo,Lucina Titone,Giovanni Corsello +9 more
TL;DR: The emerging picture of this study is that spread of MDRGN in an NICU may be the result of diffuse cross transmission and, consequently, of poor infection control procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin D and Osteoporosis in HIV/HCV Coinfected Patients: A Literature Review
Paola Di Carlo,Lucia Siracusa,Giovanni Mazzola,Piero Colletti,Maurizio Soresi,Lydia Giannitrapani,Valentina Li Vecchi,Giuseppe Montalto +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that vitamin D deficiency might influence liver disease progression in HIV/HCV coinfected patients and that the lower limit of the ideal range is debatable.
