    • Arancibia, Sergio; Espinoza, Cecilia; Salazar, Fabián; Del Campo, Miguel; Tampe, Ricardo; Zhong, Ta Ying; Ioannes, Pablo de; Moltedo, Bruno; Ferreira, Jorge; Lavelle, Ed C.; Manubens, Augusto; Ioannes, Alfredo de; Becker, María Inés (Public Library of Science, 2014)
      Hemocyanins, the huge oxygen-transporting glycoproteins of some mollusks, are used as immunomodulatory proteins with proven anti-cancer properties. The biodiversity of hemocyanins has promoted interest in identifying new ...
    • Manubens, Augusto; Salazar, Fabián; Haussmann, Denise; Figueroa, Jaime; Del Campo, Miguel; Pinto, Jonathan Martínez; Huaquín, Laura; Venegas, Alejandro; Becker, María Inés (2010)
      Hemocyanins are copper-containing glycoproteins in some molluscs and arthropods, and their bestknown function is O2 transport. We studied the site of their biosynthesis in the gastropod Concholepas concholepas by using ...
    • Campo, Miguel del; Arancibia, Sergio; Nova, Esteban; Salazar, Fabián; González, Andrea; Moltedo, Bruno; Ioannes, Pablo de; Ferreira, Jorge; Manubens, Augusto; Becker, María Inés (Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2011-02)
    • del Campo, Miguel; Arancibia, Sergio; Nova, Esteban; Salazar, Fabián; González, Andrea; Moltedo, Bruno; Ioannes, Pablo de; Ferreira, Jorge; Manubens, Augusto; Becker, María Inés (2011)
      Hemocyanins, the giant oxygen transporter glycoproteins of diverse mollusks, are xenogenic to the mammalian immune system and they display a remarkable immunogenicity. Therefore they are ideal non-specific immunostimulants ...
    • Becker, María Inés; Fuentes, Alejandra; Del Campo, Miguel; Manubens, Augusto; Nova, Esteban; Oliva, Harold; Faunes, Fernando; Valenzuela, María Antonieta; Campos Vallette, Marcelo; Aliaga, Alvaro E.; Ferreira, Jorge; Ioannes, Alfredo de; Ioannes, Pablo de; Moltedo, Br (2009)
      Hemocyanin, the oxygen transporter metallo-glycoprotein from mollusks, shows strong relationship between its notable structural features and intrinsic immunomodulatory effects. Here we investigated the individual contribution ...
    • Román, Juan José Mora; Del Campo, Miguel; Villar, Javiera; Paolini, Francesca; Curzio, Gianfranca; Venuti, Aldo; Jara, Lilian; Ferreira, Jorge; Murgas, Paola; Lladser, Alvaro; Manubens, Augusto; Becker, María Inés (Hindawi Limited, 2019)
      Mollusk hemocyanins have been used for decades in immunological and clinical applications as natural, nontoxic, nonpathogenic, and nonspecific immunostimulants for the treatment of superficial bladder cancer, as ...
    • González, Andrea; Nova, Esteban; Campo, Miguel del; Manubens, Augusto; Ioannes, Alfredo de; Ferreira Parker, Jorge; Becker, María Inés (Elsevier, 2017)
      Hemocyanins have highly conserved copper-containing active sites that bind oxygen. However, structural differences among the hemocyanins of various mollusks may affect their physicochemical properties. Here, we studied ...
