The DNA rearrangement that generates the TRK-T3 oncogene involves a novel gene on chromosome 3 whose product has a potential coiled-coil domainA Greco
Division of Experimental Oncology A, Istituto Nazionale Tumori, Milan, Italy
Mol Cell Biol 15:6118-27. 1995..Molecular analysis of the NTRK1 rearranged fragments indicated that the chromosomal rearrangement is reciprocal and balanced and involves loss of a few nucleotides of germ line sequences...
Deregulated FGFR3 mutants in multiple myeloma cell lines with t(4;14): comparative analysis of Y373C, K650E and the novel G384D mutationsD Ronchetti
Hematology Service, Department of Medical Sciences, , Ospedale Maggiore IRCCS, Milan, Italy
Oncogene 20:3553-62. 2001..Overall, our results support the idea that FGFR3 mutations are graded in terms of their activation capability, thus suggesting that they may play a critical role in the tumor progression of MM patients with t(4;14)...

Genomic organization of the human NTRK1 geneA Greco
Division of Experimental Oncology A, Istituto Nazionale Tumori, Milan, Italy
Oncogene 13:2463-6. 1996..The sequence of the 5' flanking region indicates a high content in C/G, the absence of TATA box, the presence of several putative binding sites for Sp1, AP1, AP2, AP3, ATF and GCF transcription factors...
IGFBP7: an oncosuppressor gene in thyroid carcinogenesisM G Vizioli
Molecular Mechanisms Unit, Department of Experimental Oncology and Molecular Medicine, IRCCS Foundation Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milan, Italy
Oncogene 29:3835-44. 2010..We show that the effects of IGFBP7 are related to apoptosis. Our data suggest that loss of IGFBP7 expression has a functional role in thyroid carcinogenesis, and it may represent a possible basis for therapeutic strategies...

Experimental Molecular Pathology, Department of Pathology, Istituto Nazionale per lo Studio e la Cura dei Tumori, Milan, Italy
Oncogene 25:6140-6. 2006..The application of molecular simulations allowed us to quantify the interactions between the mutated receptors and imatinib, and to propose a molecular rationale for this type of drug resistance...
