Research section

[edit]

Based on the tags on the page, I have changed some references and provided details here of where each statement is taken from. Please note his name is misspelled in some references as Izzoti or Izotti.

Please replace the current research section with the text below. The details of the exact sentences in the reference will need to be removed before placing the text on the page. If a volunteer reviews this and allows me, I can update the research section.

In his research related to chemoprevention and cancer, Izzotti studied the effectiveness of chemopreventive drugs in preventing cancer and other mutation-related diseases. He studied the mechanisms through which these drugs work, particularly in relation to smoking-related outcomes. He showed that these medicines can reduce DNA damage and other cancer related effects in preclinical models.[page 26, paragraph 2] [1]

Izzotti also investigated how microRNA (miRNA), which are small molecules that regulate gene expression, respond to noxious agents in healthy tissues. His studies demonstrated that miRNA impairment in lungs is induced by exposure to cigarette smoke. [page 2, paragraph 2] [2] He also found that miRNA alterations occur as an early response in the tissue of cells exposed to environmental carcinogens before the onset of cancer. [page 24, introduction, paragraph 3] [3] In related research, he also deduced the presence of extra-cellular miRNAs in biological fluids in order to determine their feasibility as potential cancer markers that can be detected through non-invasive procedures. [page 4, paragraph 4 and paragraph 6] [4] It was then found that some panels of miRNAs can emerge as cancer biomarkers, [please search reference 42] but there is a need to identify more specific and reliable miRNA panels. [page 5, second last paragraph] [5] In related work, Izzotti also explored the use of oral ozonized oils as a complementary therapy alongside conventional cancer treatments.[6]

Beyond cancer, Izzotti investigated the causes of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the development of glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness. He found significantly higher levels of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) in the trabecular meshwork of eyes of glaucoma patients.[please search reference 103] [7] In similar research, he examined the levels of 8-OH-dG in relation to intraocular pressure, visual field damage, and disease duration. [Line 8, page 235] The results of this study found the presence of oxidative damage alongside neuronal cell death in optic nerves among patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), [line 42, page 235] which supported the possible pathogenetic role of this phenomenon. [Line 30, page 235] Correspondingly, he also analyzed the role of mitochondrial damage in the eye of POAG patients and found that mitochondrial DNA deletion was significantly increased in the human trabecular meshwork within POAG patients.
