Female genital tract is constantly in contact with microorganisms and several strategies must be adopted to avoid pregnancy failure. Decidual endothelial cells (DECs) lining decidual microvascular vessels are the first cells that interact with pro-inflammatory stimuli released into the environment by microorganisms derived from gestational tissues or systemic circulation. Here, we show that DECs are hypo-responsive to LPS stimulation in terms of IL-6, CXCL8 and CCL2 production. Our results demonstrate that DECs express low levels of TLR4 and are characterized by a strong constitutive activation of the non-canonical NF-κB pathway and a low responsiveness of the canonical pathway to LPS. In conclusion, DECs show a unique hypo-responsive phenotype to the pro-inflammatory stimulus LPS in order to control the inflammatory response at feto-maternal interface.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26463648?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gasparini, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Celeghini, Claudio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monasta, Lorenzo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zauli, Giorgio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NF-κB pathways in hematological malignancies.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cell Mol Life Sci</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cell.

The constitutive activation of NF-κB is typical of most malignancies and plays a major role in tumorigenesis. In this review, we describe NF-κB and its two pathways: the canonical pathway (RelA/p50) and the non-canonical pathway (RelB/p50 or RelB/p52). We then consider the role of the NF-κB subunits in the development and functional activity of B cells, T cells, macrophages and dendritic cells, which are the targets of hematological malignancies. The relevance of the two pathways is described in normal B and T cells and in hematological malignancies, acute and chronic leukemias (ALL, AML, CLL, CML), B lymphomas (DLBCLs, Hodgkin's lymphoma), T lymphomas (ATLL, ALCL) and multiple myeloma. We describe the interaction of NF-κB with the apoptotic pathways induced by TRAIL and the transcription factor p53. Finally, we discuss therapeutic anti-tumoral approaches as mono-therapies or combination therapies aimed to block NF-κB activity and to induce apoptosis (PARAs and Nutlin-3).&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24419302?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gasparini, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tommasini, Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zauli, Giorgio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The MDM2 inhibitor Nutlin-3 modulates dendritic cell-induced T cell proliferation.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hum Immunol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hum.

Since Nutlin-3 displays non cell-autonomous tumor-suppressor activities, we wanted to investigate its effect on dendritic cell functions, given the central role of these cells in the modulation of the immune response. We found that Nutlin-3 alone slightly affected the levels of major histocompatibility complex and costimulatory molecules and significantly promoted the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate T cells in the mixed lymphocyte reaction. Taken together, our findings suggest that the ability of Nutlin-3 to modulate dendritic cell functions and therefore lymphocyte proliferation might represent an additional important mechanism by which Nutlin-3 exerts its non cell-autonomous tumor-suppression function.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22374325?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gasparini, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Feldmann, Marc</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NF-κB as a target for modulating inflammatory responses.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curr Pharm Des</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curr.

Multiple inflammatory cells and molecules are involved. Among the latter, the Nuclear Factor -κB (NF-κB) has been found to be most important and present in all cell types. NF-B regulates the expression of a large number of genes involved in inflammation. NF-κB plays a key role in the orchestration of the multifaceted inflammatory response, not only in the first pro-inflammatory phase, but also later in the regulation of the resolution of inflammation, when anti-inflammatory genes are expressed and apoptosis is induced. The review describes NF-κB and its two pathways: the canonical, mediated by the p65 and p50 subunits, and the non-canonical, mediated by the subunits RelB, p52 and p50. The relevance of the kinases and interactions leading to NF-κB activation is considered in different primary cells (i.e. macrophages, dendritic cells, fibroblasts, cells from inflammatory tissues), together with the response induced and the ligand involved. Then we overview the different steps to NF-B activation that can be targeted (IKKs, IκBα or NF-κB subunits themselves) with various technologies available i.e. small molecules peptides or nucleic acids. A rationale is provided for possible targets to consider, in the light that NF-κB signaling pathways regulates both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses. The possibility of using NF-κB targeted dendritic cells in immunotherapy is considered.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">35</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22726116?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
