    • Alteration in mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake disrupts insulin signaling in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes 
      Gutiérrez, Tomás; Parra, Valentina; Troncoso, Rodrigo; Pennanen, Christian; Contreras Ferrat, Ariel Eduardo; Vásquez Trincado, César Alonso; Morales, Pablo E.; López Crisosto, Camila; Sotomayor Flores, Cristian Alejandro; Chiong Lay, Mario; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Lavandero González, Sergio (BioMed Central Ltd., 2014)
      © 2014 Gutierrez et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd. Background: Cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by alterations in both cardiac bioenergetics and insulin sensitivity. Insulin promotes glucose uptake by cardiomyocytes ...
    • Calcium and mitochondrial metabolism in ceramide-induced cardiomyocyte death 
      Parra, Valentina; Moraga, Francisco; Kuzmicic, Jovan; López Crisosto, Camila; Troncoso, Rodrigo; Torrealba, Natalia; Criollo Céspedes, Alfredo; Díaz Elizondo, Jessica; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Lavandero González, Sergio (Elsevier, 2013)
      Ceramides are important intermediates in the biosynthesis and degradation of sphingolipids that regulatenumerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, cell growth, differentiation and death. In ...
    • Endoplasmic reticulum: ER stress regulates mitochondrial bioenergetics 
      Bravo Sagua, Roberto; Gutiérrez, Tomás; Paredes, Felipe; Gatica, Damián; Rodríguez, Andrea E.; Pedrozo Cibils, Zully; Chiong Lay, Mario; Parra, Valentina; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Lavandero González, Sergio (Elsevier, 2012)
      Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates an adaptive unfolded protein response (UPR) that facilitates cellular repair, however, under prolonged ER stress, the UPR can ultimately trigger apoptosis thereby terminating damaged ...
    • Glucose deprivation causes oxidative stress and stimulates aggresome formation and autophagy in cultured ... 
      Marambio, Paola; Toro, Barbra; Sanhueza, Carlos; Troncoso, Rodrigo; Parra, Valentina; Verdejo, Hugo; García Nannig, Lorena; Quiroga, Clara; Munafo, Daniela; Díaz Elizondo, Jessica; Bravo Sagua, Roberto; González Burgos, María Julieta; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Pedrozo Cibils, Zully; Chiong Lay, Mario; Co (2010)
      Aggresomes are dynamic structures formed when the ubiquitin-proteasome system is overwhelmed with aggregation-prone proteins. In this process, small protein aggregates are actively transported towards the microtubule-organizing ...
    • HERPUD1 protects against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis through downregulation of the inositol ... 
      Paredes, Felipe; Parra, Valentina; Torrealba, Natalia; Navarro Márquez, Mario F.; Gatica, Damián; Bravo Sagua, Roberto; Troncoso, Rodrigo; Pennanen, Christian; Quiroga, Clara; Chiong Lay, Mario; Caesar, Christa; Taylor, W. Robert; Molgó, Jordi; San Martín, Alejandra; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique; Lavandero González, Sergio (Elsevier, 2016)
      Homocysteine-inducible, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-inducible, ubiquitin-like domain member 1 (HERPUD1), an ER resident protein, is upregulated in response to ER stress and Ca2(+) homeostasis deregulation. HERPUD1 ...
    • Hyperosmotic stress activates p65/RelB NF kappa B in cultured cardiomyocytes with dichotomic actions on ... 
      Eisner, Verónica; Quiroga, Clara; Criollo Céspedes, Alfredo; Eltit Ortega, José Miguel; Chiong Lay, Mario; Parra, Valentina; Hidalgo, Karla; Toro, Barbra; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Lavandero González, Sergio (ELSEVIER, 2006-06-12)
      NF kappa B is a participant in the process whereby cells adapt to stress. We have evaluated the activation of NF kappa B pathway by hyperosmotic stress in cultured cardiomyocytes and its role in the activation of caspase ...
    • Hyperosmotic stress activates p65/RelB NFκB in cultured cardiomyocytes with dichotomic actions on caspase ... 
      Eisner, Verónica; Quiroga, Clara; Criollo Céspedes, Alfredo; Eltit Ortega, José Miguel; Chiong Lay, Mario; Parra, Valentina; Hidalgo, Karla; Toro, Barbra; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Lavandero González, Sergio (2006)
      NFκB is a participant in the process whereby cells adapt to stress. We have evaluated the activation of NFκB pathway by hyperosmotic stress in cultured cardiomyocytes and its role in the activation of caspase and cell ...
    • Mitochondria fine-tune the slow Ca2+ transients induced by electrical stimulation of skeletal myotubes 
      Eisner, Verónica; Parra, Valentina; Lavandero González, Sergio; Hidalgo Tapia, María Cecilia; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique (Elsevier Ltd, 2010)
      Mitochondria sense cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals in many cell types. In mammalian skeletal myotubes, depolarizing stimuli induce two independent cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals: a fast signal associated with contraction and a slow ...
