    • Autophagy in cardiovascular biology 
      Lavandero González, Sergio; Chiong Lay, Mario; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Hill, Joseph A. (American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2015)
      Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. As such, there is great interest in identifying novel mechanisms that govern the cardiovascular response to disease-related stress. First described in failing ...
    • Cardiomyocyte ryanodine receptor degradation by chaperone-mediated autophagy 
      Pedrozo Cibils, Zully; Torrealba, Natalia; Fernández, Carolina; Gatica, Damián; Toro, Barbra; Quiroga, Clara; Rodríguez, Andrea E.; Sánchez, Gina; Gillette, Thomas G.; Hill, Joseph A.; Donoso Laurent, Paulina; Lavandero González, Sergio (the European Society of Cardiology, 2013)
      Aims Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a selective mechanism for the degradation of soluble cytosolic proteins bearing the sequence KFERQ. These proteins are targeted by chaperones and delivered to lysosomes where ...
    • Cardiovascular autophagy concepts, controversies, and perspectives 
      Lavandero González, Sergio; Troncoso Cotal, Rodrigo; Rotherme, Beverly; Martinet, Wim; Sadoshima, Junichi; Hill, Joseph (Taylor and Francis Inc., 2013)
      Despite recent scientific and technological advances, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Autophagy, an evolutionarily ancient response to cellular stress, has been ...
    • Down syndrome critical region 1 gene, Rcan1, helps maintain a more fused Mitochondrial Network 
      Parra Ortíz, María Valentina; Altamirano, Francisco; Hernández Fuentes, Carolina; Tong, Dan; Kyrychenko, Victoriia; Rotter, David; Pedrozo Cibils, Zully; Hill, Joseph A.; Eisner, Verónica; Lavandero González, Sergio; Schneider, Jay W.; Rothermel, Beverly A. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2018)
      Rationale: The regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) inhibits CN (calcineurin), a Ca2+-activated protein phosphatase important in cardiac remodeling. In humans, RCAN1 is located on chromosome 21 in proximity to the Down ...
    • Epigenetic Reader BRD4 (Bromodomain-Containing Protein 4) Governs Nucleus-Encoded Mitochondrial Transcriptome ... 
      Kim, Soo Young; Zhang, Xin; Schiattarella, Gabriele G.; Altamirano, Francisco; Ramos, Thais; French, Kristin M.; Jiang, Nan; Szweda, Pamela A.; Evers, Bret M.; May, Herman; Luo, Xiang; Li, Hongliang; Szweda, Luke; Maracajá Coutinho, Vinicius; Lavandero González, Sergio; Gillette, Thomas G.; Hill, Joseph A. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2020)
      BACKGROUND: BET (bromodomain and extraterminal) epigenetic reader proteins, in particular BRD4 (bromodomain-containing protein 4), have emerged as potential therapeutic targets in a number of pathological conditions, ...
    • FoxO1-Dio2 signaling axis governs cardiomyocyte thyroid hormone metabolism and hypertrophic growth 
      Ferdous, Anwarul; Wang, Zhao V.; Luo, Yuxuan; Li, Dan L.; Luo, Xiang; Schiattarella, Gabriele G.; Altamirano, Francisco; May, Herman I.; Battiprolu, Pavan K.; Nguyen, Annie; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Lavandero González, Sergio; Gillette, Thomas G.; Hill, Joseph A. (Nature, 2020)
      Forkhead box O (FoxO) proteins and thyroid hormone (TH) have well established roles in cardiovascular morphogenesis and remodeling. However, specific role(s) of individual FoxO family members in stress-induced growth and ...
    • Metabolic stress - Induced activation of FoxO1 triggers diabetic cardiomyopathy in mice 
      Battiprolu, Pavan K.; Hojayev, Berdymammet; Jiang, Nan; Wang, Zhao V.; Luo, Xiang; Iglewski, Myriam; Shelton, John M.; Gerard, Robert D.; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Gillette, Thomas G.; Lavandero González, Sergio; Hill, Joseph A. (2012)
      The leading cause of death in diabetic patients is cardiovascular disease; diabetic cardiomyopathy is typified by alterations in cardiac morphology and function, independent of hypertension or coronary disease. However, ...
    • Mitochondrial fission and autophagy in the normal and diseased heart 
      Iglewski, Myriam; Hill, Joseph A.; Lavandero González, Sergio; Rothermel, Beverly A. (2010)
      Sustained hypertension promotes structural, functional and metabolic remodeling of cardiomyocyte mitochondria. As long-lived, postmitotic cells, cardiomyocytes turn over mitochondria continuously to compensate for changes ...
    • Oxidative stress and autophagy in cardiovascular homeostasis 
      Morales, Cyndi R.; Pedrozo Cibils, Zully; Lavandero González, Sergio; Hill, Joseph A. (Mary Ann Liebert, 2014)
      Significance: Autophagy is an evolutionarily ancient process of intracellular protein and organelle recycling required to maintain cellular homeostasis in the face of a wide variety of stresses. Dysregulation of reactive ...
    • Parkin gone wild: Unbridled ubiquitination 
      Cao, Dian J.; Lavandero González, Sergio; Hill, Joseph A. (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2015)
