    • Diabetes alters the involvement of myofibroblasts during periodontal wound healing 
      Retamal, Ignacio; Hernández, Romina; Velarde, Victoria; Oyarzún, Alejandro; Martínez, Constanza; González Burgos, María Julieta; Martínez Winkler, Jorge; Smith, Patricio C. (Wiley, 2020)
      Objectives Myofibroblasts constitute a specific cell phenotype involved in connective tissue healing. Diabetes alters the wound healing response. However, it is not clear whether diabetes modifies the involvement of ...
    • Glycated collagen stimulates differentiation of gingival myofibroblasts 
      Retamal, Ignacio N.; Hernández, Romina; Melo, Francisco; Zapata, Paulina; Martínez Winkler, Jorge; Martínez, Constanza; Smith, Patricio C. (American Academy of Periodontology, 2017)
      Background: Glucose-derived metabolites may alter the structure and biologic properties of important proteins in periodontium, such as collagens. As a consequence, it is possible that collagen-binding cells may change their ...
    • Uncoupled inflammatory, proliferative, and cytoskeletal responses in senescent human gingival fibroblasts 
      Páez, Jassir; Hernández, Romina; Espinoza, Javier; Rojas, Leticia; Martínez, Constanza E.; Tobar Bachler, Nicolás; Martínez Winkler, Jorge; Smith, Patricio C. (Wiley, 2020)
      Background and objective: Aging is characterized by a decline in tissue structure and function that may be explained by the development of cellular senescence. However, the acquisition of specific phenotypic responses in ...
