Schnitzler's syndrome: monoclonal gammopathy associated with chronic urticariaRita Rizzi
Hematology Section, Department of Pathology, University of Bari Medical School, Bari, Italy
Acta Haematol 120:1-4. 2008..A lower CD4+/CD8+ ratio of circulating T lymphocytes was also detected. SS usually has a benign course, but in 15% of patients a lymphoproliferative disorder develops...

Med Oncol 26:1-9. 2009....
The role of OPG/TRAIL complex in multiple myeloma: the OPG/TRAIL complex in an in vitro osteoclastogenesis model derived from human multiple myeloma-bone diseaseGiacomina Brunetti
Department of Human Anatomy and Histology, University of Bari Medical School, Piazza Giulio Cesare, 11, 70124 Bari, Italy
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1068:334-40. 2006..Our results highlight that MM T cells support OC formation and survival, possibly involving OPG/TRAIL interaction...
The formation of osteoclasts in multiple myeloma bone disease patients involves the secretion of soluble decoy receptor 3Giacomina Brunetti
Department of Human Anatomy and Histology, University of Bari, Bari, Italy
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1192:298-302. 2010..We also show that serum DcR3 levels in myeloma patients are significantly higher compared to controls...
Sclerostin is overexpressed by plasma cells from multiple myeloma patientsGiacomina Brunetti
Department of Basic Medical Science, Section of Human Anatomy and Histology, University of Bari, Bari, Italy
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1237:19-23. 2011..Thus, our data indicate that MM cells, as a sclerostin source in the BM, could create a microenvironment with high sclerostin concentration that could contribute toward inhibiting osteoblast differentiation...
Non-treatment-related chronic myeloid leukemia as a second malignancyGiorgina Specchia
Department of Haematology, University of Bari, Policlinico, Piazza Giulio Cesare 11, 70124 Bari, Italy
Leuk Res 28:115-9. 2004..Our study underlines that nTr-CML as a second malignancy is a rare entity associated with elderly age...
TRAIL effect on osteoclast formation in physiological and pathological conditionsGiacomina Brunetti
Department of Human Anatomy and Histology, University of Bari, Bari, Italy
Front Biosci (Elite Ed) 3:1154-61. 2011..Finally, we detect high TRAIL levels in the sera from the patients. In conclusion, our results indicate that TRAIL could exert a different role in modulating OC differentiation in physiological and pathological conditions...
Autoimmune myelofibrosis: report of three cases and review of the literatureRita Rizzi
Hematology Section, Internal Medicine and Public Medicine Department, University of Bari Medical School, Italy
Leuk Lymphoma 45:561-6. 2004..In conclusion, increased awareness of the clinicopathological pattern identifying autoimmune myelofibrosis is recommended in order to improve basic and clinical knowledge of this emerging entity...

Hematology Section, Internal Medicine and Public Medicine Department, University of Bari Medical School, Policlinico, Piazza Giulio Cesare, 11 70124 Bari, Italy
Leuk Lymphoma 43:2217-20. 2002..Further reports, supported by chromosomal and molecular studies, could improve our knowledge on this extremely infrequent disease association...
T cells support osteoclastogenesis in an in vitro model derived from human multiple myeloma bone disease: the role of the OPG/TRAIL interactionSilvia Colucci
Department of Human Anatomy and Histology, University of Bari Medical School, Piazza Giulio Cesare, 11, 70124 Bari, Italy
Blood 104:3722-30. 2004..Our results highlight that MM T cells support OC formation and survival, possibly involving OPG/TRAIL interaction and unbalanced OC expression of TRAIL death and decoy receptors...
