      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 ...
    • García, Carlos; Oyaneder Terrazas, Javiera; Contreras, Cristobal; Del Campo, Miguel; Torres, Rafael; Contreras Muñoz, Héctor (Taylor & Francis, 2016)
      Contamination of shellfish with lipophilic marine biotoxins (LMB), pectenotoxins (PTXs), yessotoxins (YTXs) and okadaic acid (OA) toxin groups in southern Chile is a constant challenge for the development of miticulture ...

      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 ...
    • Benítez, Agustín; Riquelme, Raúl; Campo, Miguel del; Araya, Camila; Lara, Hernán E. (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      The functioning of the ovary is influenced by the autonomic system (sympathetic and cholinergic intraovarian system) which contributes to the regulation of steroid secretion, follicular development, and ovulation. There ...
    • Del Campo, Miguel; Toledo, Héctor; Lagos, Néstor (2013)
      The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of Okadaic Acid (OA) on the proliferation of gastric and colon epithelial cells, the main target tissues of the toxin. We hypothesized that OA, at sublethal doses, activates ...
    • del Campo, Miguel; Zhong, Ta- Ying; Tampe, Ricardo; García Nannig, Lorena; Lagos, Néstor (Elsevier Ltd, 2017)
      © 2016 Elsevier LtdOne of the proposed mechanisms to explain why Diarrhetic Shellfish Poison (DSP) toxins are tumor promoters is founded on the capacity of these toxins to increase TNF-α secretion. Although macrophages are ...
