Identification of key molecular biomarkers involved in reactive and neurodegenerative processes present in inherited congenital hydrocephalus
(BMC, 2021)Periventricular extracellular oedema, myelin damage, inflammation, and glial reactions are common neuropathological events that occur in the brain in congenital hydrocephalus. The periventricular white matter is the most ... -
Identification of quantitative trait loci and candidate genes for primary metabolite content in strawberry fruit
(2019)Improvement of nutritional and organoleptic quality of fruits is a key goal in current strawberry breeding programs. The ratio of sugars to acids is a determinant factor contributing to fruit liking, although different ... -
Inhibition of Endothelial Inflammatory Response by HT-C6, a Hydroxytyrosol Alkyl Ether Derivative.
(MDPI, 2023-07-28)Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a bioactive phenolic compound naturally present in olives and extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) which is described as an antioxidant, antitumoral and antiangiogenic molecule. Previous studies of ... -
Inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome improves lifespan in animal murine model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria
(EMBO press, 2021-10-07)Inflammation is a hallmark of aging and accelerated aging syndromes such as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). In this study, we present evidence of increased expression of the components of the NLRP3 inflammasome ... -
Insights into ROS‐dependent signalling underlying transcriptomic plant responses to the herbicide 2,4‐D
(Plant Cell & Environment, 2022)The synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) functions as an agronomic weed control herbicide. High concentrations of 2,4-D induce plant growth defects, particularly leaf epinasty and stem curvature. Although ... -
Insights into transcription factors controlling strawberry fruit development and ripening
(Frontiers, 2022-10-10)Fruit ripening is a highly regulated and complex process involving a series of physiological and biochemical changes aiming to maximize fruit organoleptic traits to attract herbivores, maximizing therefore seed dispersal. ... -
Integrating differential expression, co-expression and gene network analysis for the identification of common genes associated with tumor angiogenesis deregulation
(Elsevier, 2023)Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and cancer metastasis. Identifying the molecular pathways involved in this process is the first step in the rational design of new therapeutic strategies to improve cancer treatment. ... -
Isolation, characterization, and localization of AgaSGNH cDNA: a new SGNH-motif plant hydrolase specific to Agave americana L. leaf epidermis.
(Oxford University Press, 2007-07-03)GDSL and SGNH hydrolases are lipases involved in a wide range of functions, behaving in many cases as bifunctional enzymes. In this work, the isolation and characterization of AgaSGNH, a cDNA encoding a member of the ... -
KinFams: De-Novo Classification of Protein Kinases Using CATH Functional Units
(IOAP-MDPI, 2023-02-02)Protein kinases are important targets for treating human disorders, and they are the second most targeted families after G-protein coupled receptors. Several resources provide classification of kinases into evolutionary ... -
Lipid droplet degradation by autophagy connects mitochondria metabolism to Prox1-driven expression of lymphatic genes and lymphangiogenesis.
(SpringerNature, 2022-05-19)Autophagy has vasculoprotective roles, but whether and how it regulates lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) homeostasis and lymphangiogenesis is unknown. Here, we show that genetic deficiency of autophagy in LEC impairs ... -
Lysophosphatidic Acid and Glutamatergic Transmission.
(Frontiers, 2019-05-28)Signaling through bioactive lipids regulates nervous system development and functions. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a membrane-derived lipid mediator particularly enriched in brain, is able to induce many responses in ... -
Mammalian Glutaminase Gls2 Gene Encodes Two Functional Alternative Transcripts by a Surrogate Promoter Usage Mechanism.
(PLOS, 2012-06-05)Glutaminase is expressed in most mammalian tissues and cancer cells, but the regulation of its expression is poorly understood. An essential step to accomplish this goal is the characterization of its species- and cell-specific ... -
MangoBase: a genomics portal and gene expression atlas for Mangifera indica
(MDPI, 2023-03-10)Mango (Mangifera indica L.) (2n = 40) is a member of the Anacardiaceae family, which was domesticated at least 4000 years ago in Asia. Mangoes are delicious fruits with great nutritional value. They are one of the major ... -
Mathematical modeling of cancer metabolism
(2018-10-19)Systemic approaches are needed and useful for the study of the very complex issue of cancer. Modeling has a central position in these systemic approaches. Metabolic reprogramming is nowadays acknowledged as an essential ... -
Mathematical Modeling of Polyamine Metabolism in Mammals.
(Elsevier, 2006)Polyamines are considered as essential compounds in living cells, since they are involved in cell proliferation, transcription, and translation processes. Furthermore, polyamine homeostasis is necessary to cell survival, ... -
Metabolic Adjustments following Glutaminase Inhibition by CB-839 in Glioblastoma Cell Lines
(IOAP-MDPI, 2023-01-15)Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common primary brain tumor. Unfortunately, it is also one of the cancer types that has the worst morbidity and mortality ratios, so new targets and treatments need to be found. The ... -
Metabolic Reprogramming in Tumor Endothelial Cells.
(MDPI, 2022-09-21)The dynamic crosstalk between the different components of the tumor microenvironment is critical to determine cancer progression, metastatic dissemination, tumor immunity, and therapeutic responses. Angiogenesis is critical ... -
Metabolic Reprogramming is a Hallmark of Metabolism Itself
(2020-09-23)The reprogramming of metabolism has been identified as one of the hallmarks of cancer. It is becoming more and more frequent to connect other diseases with metabolic reprogramming. This article aims to argue that metabolic ... -
Metabolism within the tumor microenvironment and its implication on cancer progression: an ongoing therapeutic target
