    • Morales, Sebastián; Gulppi, Felipe; González Hormazábal, Patricio; Fernández Ramires, Ricardo; Bravo, Teresa; Reyes, José; Poblete Gómez, Fernando Andrés; Waugh, Enrique; Jara Sosa, Lilian (BioMed Central, 2016)
      Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a novel class of endogenous, non-coding, single-stranded RNAs capable of regulating gene expression by suppressing translation or degrading mRNAs. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) ...
    • Bustos Obregón, Eduardo; González Hormazábal, Patricio (2003)
      Aim: To observe the acute effect of the organophosphorous insecticide malathion on testicular function in mice. Methods: The effects of a single dose of malathion [240 mg/kg (1/12 LD 50)] on plasma acetylcholinesterase ...
    • Retamales Ortega, Rocío Mariana (Universidad de Chile, 2020)
      El cáncer gástrico (CG) es la principal causa de muerte oncológica en Chile, no tiene síntomas específicos y tiene una tasa de sobrevida a 5 años de hasta un 20% debido a su diagnóstico en estadíos tardíos. La tasa de ...
    • Toledo Stuardo, Karen; Ribeiro, Carolina H.; Canals Cifuentes, María Andrea; Morales, Marcela; Gárate, Valentina; Rodríguez Siza, José; Tello, Samantha; Bustamante, Marco; Armisen, Ricardo; Matthies Eyzaguirre, Douglas Johans; Zapata Torres, Gerald Amilcar; González Hormazábal, Patricio; Molina Sampayo, María Carmen (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most prevalent type of cancer worldwide. Gastric tumor cells express MICA protein, a ligand to NKG2D receptor that triggers natural killer (NK) cells effector functions for early tumor ...

      BackgroundHelicobacter pylori is detected by pathogen recognition receptors including toll-like receptors (TLR) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors, eliciting an innate immune response against ...
    • González Hormazábal, Patricio; Musleh, Maher; Bustamante, Marco; Stambuk, Juan; Pisano, Raul; Valladares, Hector; Lanzarini, Enrique; Chiong, Hector; Rojas, Jorge; Suazo, Jose; Gonzalo Castro, V.; Jara, Lilian; Berger, Zoltan (MDPI AG, 2019)
      The RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway regulates certain cellular functions, including cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. Dysregulation of this pathway leads to the occurrence and progression of cancers ...
    • Jara, Lilian; Acevedo, Monica L.; Blanco, Rafael; Castro, Victor G.; Bravo, Teresa; Gómez, Fernando; Waugh, Enrique; Peralta, Octavio; Cabrera, Elsa; Reyes, José M.; Ampuero Llanos, Sandra; González Hormazábal, Patricio (2007)
      Several studies have reported that mutations in genes involved in maintenance of genome integrity may be responsible for increased cancer risk. Human RAD51, known to function in DNA repair, interacts with a number of ...

Gonzalo; Rubio-Reyes, Cristian; Jara, Lilian; Berger, Zoltan (International Institute of Anticancer Research, 2014)
      Aim: To assess the role of pro- and anti-inflammatory polymorphisms in gastric cancer susceptibility. Patients and Methods: We genotyped 12 polymorphisms in eight cytokine genes (Interleukin-1β-IL1B-, IL8, IL17A, IL17F, ...
    • Jara, Lilian; Dubois, Karen; Gaete, Daniel; De Mayo, Tomas; Ratkevicius, Nikalai; Bravo, Teresa; Margarit, Sonia; Blanco, Rafael; Gómez, Fernando; Waugh, Enrique; Peralta, Octavio; Reyes, Jose M.; Ibáñez, Gladys; González Hormazábal, Patricio (Springer New York, 2010)
      The double-strand break (DSB) DNA repair pathway has been implicated in breast cancer (BC). RAD51 and its paralogs XRCC3 and RAD51D play an important role in the repair of DSB through homologous recombination (HR). Some ...
