Instauración del fundamento terapéutico de la inhibición de la vía de señalización Lefty-Smad en el Glioblastoma
(2022-04-21)
El Glioblastoma es el tumor cerebral primario más frecuente y agresivo del Sistema Nervioso Central. Presenta un pronóstico muy pobre, con una mediana de supervivencia menor a los 15 meses, y los costes en la sociedad ...
Unveiling the activation dynamics of a fold-switch bacterial glycosyltransferase by 19F NMR
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2020-07-17)
Fold-switch pathways remodel the secondary structure topology of proteins in response to the cellular environment. It is a major challenge to understand the dynamics of these folding processes. Here, we conducted an in-depth ...
Structural studies of filamentous plant viruses by cryo-electron microscopy and cryo-electron tomography
(2021-09-09)
Los virus filamentosos flexibles de plantas representan un grupo de patógenos de plantas que causan un gran impacto económico en cultivos dedicados a la agricultura. El géneropotyvirus es el más numeroso y abarca hasta un ...
Microfluidic chip with pillar arrays for controlled production and observation of lipid membrane nanotubes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-07)
Lipid membrane nanotubes (NTs) are a widespread template forin vitrostudies of cellular processes happening at high membrane curvature. Traditionally NTs are manufactured one by one, using sophisticated membrane ...
High SOX9 Maintains Glioma Stem Cell Activity through a Regulatory Loop Involving STAT3 and PML
(MDPI, 2022-05)
Glioma stem cells (GSCs) are critical targets for glioma therapy. SOX9 is a transcription factor with critical roles during neurodevelopment, particularly within neural stem cells. Previous studies showed that high levels ...
Phosphatidic Acid Stimulates Myoblast Proliferation through Interaction with LPA1 and LPA2 Receptors
(MDPI, 2021-02-01)
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a bioactive phospholipid capable of regulating key biological functions, including neutrophil respiratory burst, chemotaxis, or cell growth and differentiation. However, the mechanisms whereby PA ...
A fluorogenic cyclic peptide for imaging and quantification of drug-induced apoptosis
(Nature, 2020-08-12)
Programmed cell death or apoptosis is a central biological process that is dysregulated in many diseases, including inflammatory conditions and cancer. The detection and quantification of apoptotic cells in vivo is hampered ...
Determinación estructural de virus con envuelta lipída mediante crio-microscopía electrónica.
(2020-02-10)
Viruses are parasitic biological agents that in the virion state contain differentmorphologies and assembly organisations. In some virions, a lipid membrane of cellularorigin is a structural component of the infectious ...
Implication of Ceramide Kinase/C1P in Cancer Development and Progression
(MDPI, 2022-01-04)
Cancer cells rewire their metabolic programs to favor biological processes that promote cell survival, proliferation, and dissemination. Among this relevant reprogramming, sphingolipid metabolism provides metabolites that ...
Searching for biomarkers of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic syndrome
(2020-05-29)
El desarrollo de esta tesis doctoral ha aportado luz sobre los mecanismos que subyacen a la enfermedad del hígado graso no alcohólico (NAFLD por sus siglas en inglés), ya que los resultados han revelado la existencia de ...
