El cáncer de tiroides bien diferenciado (WDTC) es la neoplasia más común del sistema endocrino. Aunque es uno de los tumores con mejor pronóstico, con más del 90% de los pacientes alcanzando valores de supervivencia ...
El agua es esencial para el ser humano y el desarrollo de las actividades socioeconómicas, pero los recursos hídricos no están repartidos de forma equitativa en todo el planeta y la escasez hídrica afecta a muchas regiones. ...
En el momento del inicio de esta tesis doctoral, nuestro grupo de investigación, analizando el genoma de la cepa enteroagregativa E. coli 042 pudo comprobar que, además de los genes hha e ydgT (presentes en la mayoría de ...
[eng] Planarian flatworms (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida), commonly referred to as triclads, constitute a diverse taxonomic group encompassing a wealth of species exhibiting a broad spectrum of phenotypic diversity. Triclads ...
El creixent nombre de genomes seqüenciats està posant de manifest que la pèrdua gènica és un fenomen recurrent que pot haver generat diversitat al llarg de la història evolutiva dels diferents grups d’organismes. En aquest ...
The hypersensitive response (HR) is a paradigmatic type of programmed cell death, that occurs in response to pathogen recognition at the site of attempted invasion. Notwithstanding more than a century of research on HR, ...
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial disease characterized by a progressive degeneration and eventual failure of the synovial joint functionality. Although it has been traditionally considered as an exclusive disease ...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in social communication and interaction, as well as repetitive and restricted patterns of behaviour. Although growing evidence ...
[eng] Genomic techniques are increasingly being utilized in conservation biology, providing critical insights into the behavior, reproductive success, and various threats faced by vulnerable species. The loggerhead sea ...
Benthic organisms inhabiting the shallow waters of the Southern Ocean are considered excellent models to study evolutionary processes, population connectivity patterns, and adaptation. They have evolved in an extreme ...
Some animals have incredible regenerative abilities which kept researchers fascinating during decades. How these animals are able to regenerate missing parts and restore damaged tissues can give researchers insights in the ...
The plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is the causal agent of the devastating disease known as bacterial wilt. This disease affects more than 200 plant species in over 50 families, including economically important crops ...
CHAPTER 1: Reconstructing ancient Mediterranean crossroads in Deronectes diving beetles Aim: To reconstruct the evolutionary history of a genus of freshwater beetle with a pan- Mediterranean distribution, to test classic ...
En aquesta tesi, titulada “Regeneració i homeòstasi a les planàries: gens i vies de senyalització implicats en l'organogènesi”, s’aprofundeix en l’estudi dels processos responsables de l’organogènesi a la planària d’aigua ...
One of the most important questions in regenerative biology is how and when genes change expression to trigger regeneration programs. Resetting of gene expression patterns during injury responses is shaped by the coordinated ...
[eng] Ciliopathies encompass a broad group of heterogeneous inherited disorders associated with dysfunction of the cilium, a ubiquitous microtubule-based organelle that translates extracellular stimuli into cellular ...
[spa] El pulmón siempre se ha considerado estéril. Sin embargo, el campo de la microbiota pulmonar se ha visto revolucionado por el avance de las técnicas moleculares. Cada individuo tiene un perfil de microbiota único, ...
El manteniment de l’homeòstasi en organismes adults és cabdal per la continuïtat dels individus; desregulacions d’aquest equilibri porten a l’aparició de malalties. La planària és un model d’estudi en regeneració i remodelació ...
El gen MC1R (codi OMIM: #155555) codifica pel receptor de la melanocortina 1 (MC1R) que s’expressa majoritàriament a la membrana dels melanòcits i està implicat en la regulació de la síntesi de melanina. El gen MC1R és ...
Childhood obesity and overweight can often cause severe complications, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, amongst other disorders. Several ...
