Increased expression of TIMP-1 is associated with poor prognosis in virtually all cancer types, including lung cancer. However, how TIMP-1 is regulated in lung cancer and how it drives tumor progression is poorly defined. ...
La detecció precoç de fibrosi hepàtica és de gran rellevància per al diagnòstic i el tractament dels pacients amb una malaltia hepàtica crònica. Actualment, s'utilitzen diversos procediments per a la seva estadificació. ...
Our goal in this doctoral thesis was to study the immunomodulatory effects of CD5 and CD6, two proteins expressed on the lymphocytes membrane. These two proteins belong to the Scavenger Receptors Cystein- Rich superfamily, ...
[eng] Cholesterol accumulation in mitochondrial membranes is a common feature of various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's as well as liver diseases. Studies prior to this doctoral ...
[eng] The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major obstacle for the treatment of neurological diseases such as common Parkinson’s disease or rare lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs). LSDs are characterised by deficiency of ...
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an autosomic mutation on the Huntingtin (HTT) coding gene. HD is mainly characterized by the appearance of motor symptoms or choreas, which are associated ...
[eng] Albumin exerts pleiotropic actions beyond its oncotic power, which include binding, transport and detoxification of endogenous and exogenous molecules, antioxidant activity and the modulation of immune and inflammatory ...
Partint dels resultats previs obtinguts per aquest grup d’investigació, es planteja la següent hipòtesi de treball: “La proteïna p27 és un regulador de la via de Notch. Aquesta regulació es realitzaria, principalment, ...
INTRODUCCIÓ: A nivell mundial el càncer de còlon i recte (CCR) és el segon i el tercer en freqüència en homes i en dones, respectivament. La seva història natural és coneguda, se sap que habitualment es desenvolupa a ...
[spa] Debido a la importancia de la modulación del NMDAR, en el grupo de investigación de proteínas (GRIP) se han diseñado una serie de péptidos derivados de la Conantokina-G (Con-G), un péptido antagonista de los NMDARs, ...
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a rare genetic disorder caused by an aberrant expansion of a CAG trinucleotide in the huntingtin gene (Htt). The neuropathology of the disease is characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction ...
A Schizosaccharomyces pombe, la citocinesi està mediada per l’assemblatge i la constricció de l’anell contràctil d’actomiosiona. Pertorbacions petites en aquesta estructura activen un conjunt de mecanismes de control que ...
[eng] INTRODUCTION: The Kirsten rat sarcoma oncogene (KRAS) homologue stands out as a prominent oncogene, distinguished by its notably elevated mutation rate compared to other oncogenes. This genetic anomaly is intricately ...
Huntington’s Disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant inherited neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor, psychiatric, and cognitive manifestations. The disease is caused by an unstable expansion of the CAG trinucleotide ...
[eng] HYPOTHESIS: Precision oncology has revolutionized the landscape of cancer treatment. Emerging therapeu- tic approaches, such as immunotherapy or anti-angiogenic agents, have exhibited remarkable outcomes in solid ...
[cat] TRESK (K2P18.1) és un canal de potassi de fuga que s’expressa en algunes subpoblacions de neurones sensorials, on modula el potencial de membrana en repòs, la descàrrega de potencial d’acció i l’excitabilitat neuronal. ...
Marfan Syndrome (MFS) is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder of the connective tissue that affects between 1.5 and 17.2 in 100.000 live births. MFS is caused by mutations in the extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoprotein ...
[eng] KIT (CD117) is a tyrosine kinase receptor expressed in hematopoietic progenitors, melanocytes, germ cells, mast cells, and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) of the digestive tract. KIT gain-of-function mutations have ...
Homeostasis of the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell pool relies on a finely tuned balance between self-renewal, differentiation and proliferation. Recent work has revealed the importance of mitochondria during stem cell ...
[spa] La enfermedad de Huntington (EH) es una enfermedad neurodegenerativa hereditaria causada por la mutación de la huntingtina (mHtt) que ocasiona síntomas motores, cognitivos y psiquiátricos. La característica ...
