    • Díaz, Jorge; Mendoza, Pablo; Silva, Patricio; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Torres, Vicente A. (Landes Bioscience, 2014)
      © Jorge Díaz, Pablo endoza, Patricio Silva, Andrew FG Quest, and Vicente A Torres. The small GTPase Rab5 has been frequently studied in the context of intracellular trafficking, but evidence obtained more recently has ...
    • Lagos Cabre, Raúl; Álvarez, Álvaro; Kong, Milene; Burgos Bravo, Francesca; Cárdenas, Areli; Rojas Mancilla, Edgardo; Pérez Núñez, Ramón Daniel; Herrera Molina, Rodrigo; Rojas, Fabiola; Schneider, Pascal; Herrera-Marschitz Muller, Mario; Quest, Andrew F. G.; van Zundert, Brigitte; Leyton Campos, Lisette (BIOMED Central Ltd., 2017)
      Background: Neuroinflammation involves cytokine release, astrocyte reactivity and migration. Neuronal Thy-1 promotes DITNC1 astrocyte migration by engaging alpha(V)beta(3) Integrin and Syndecan-4. Primary astrocytes express ...
    • Reig, Germán; Pulgar, Eduardo; Concha, Miguel L. (Company of Biologists Ltd, 2014)
      Cell migration is a fundamental process that occurs during embryo development. Classic studies using in vitro culture systems have been instrumental in dissecting the principles of cell motility and highlighting how cells ...
    • Limia, Celia Maria; Sauzay, Chloé; Urra, Hery; Hetz Flores, Claudio; Chevet, Eric; Avril, Tony (MDPI AG, 2019)
      Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis is often altered in tumor cells due to intrinsic (oncogene expression, aneuploidy) and extrinsic (environmental) challenges. ER stress triggers the activation of an adaptive response ...
    • Fan, Yongjun; Abrahamsen, Greger; Mills, Richard; Calderón, Claudia C.; Tee, Jing Yang; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Murrell, Wayne; Cooper White, Justin; McGrath, John J.; Mackay Sim, Alan (Society of Biological Psychiatry, 2013)
      Background: Evidence from genetic association studies implicate genes involved in neural migration associated with schizophrenia risk. Neural stem/progenitor cell cultures (neurosphere-derived cells) from olfactory mucosa ...
    • Álvarez, Álvaro; Lagos Cabré, Raúl; Kong, Milene; Cárdenas, Areli; Burgos Bravo, Francesca; Schneider, Pascal; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Leyton Campos, Lisette (Elsevier, 2016)
      Our previous reports indicate that ligand-induced alpha(v)beta(3) integrin and Syndecan-4 engagement increases focal adhesion formation and migration of astrocytes. Additionally, ligated integrins trigger ATP release through ...
    • Lagos Cabré, Raúl; Brenet, Marianne; Díaz, Jorge; Pérez, Ramón D.; Pérez, Leonardo A.; Herrera Molina, Rodrigo; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Leyton Campos, Lisette (MDPI AG, 2018)
      © 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Under pro-inflammatory conditions, astrocytes become reactive and acquire a migratory phenotype. Our results show that hemichannels formed by connexin 43 (Cx43) ...
    • Canales, Jimena; Cruz, Pablo; Villacura Díaz, Nicolás Esteban; Riquelme, Denise; Leiva Salcedo, Elias; Cerda Arancibia, Óscar (MDPI, 2020)
      Cell migration is critical for several physiological and pathophysiological processes. It depends on the coordinated action of kinases, phosphatases, Rho-GTPases proteins, and Ca2+ signaling. Interestingly, ubiquitination ...
    • Rivas, José; Díaz, Nicolás; Silva, Ian; Morales, Dana; Lavanderos, Boris; Álvarez, Alhejandra; Saldías Maulén, María Paz; Pulgar Pulgar, Eduardo; Cruz Núñez, Pablo; Maureira, Diego; Flores Utreras, Guillermo; Colombo Flores, Alicia; Blanco, Constanza; Contreras Muñoz, Héctor; Jaña, Fabián; Gallegos Méndez, Iván; Concha Nordemann, Miguel; Vergara Jaque, Ariela; Poblete, Horacio; González, Wendy; Varela Lekanda, Diego; Trimmer, James; Cáceres Lluch, Mónica Andrea; Cerda Arancibia, Óscar (Wiley, 2020)
      Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) is a Ca2+-activated nonselective cationic channel that regulates cell migration and contractility. Increased TRPM4 expression has been related to pathologies, in which ...
    • Suárez, Rodrigo; García-González, Diego; de Castro, Fernando (2012)
      The sense of smell plays a crucial role in the sensory world of animals. Two chemosensory systems have been traditionally thought to play independent roles in mammalian olfaction. According to this, the main olfactory ...
    • Guzmán Palma, Pablo; Contreras, Esteban G.; Mora, Natalia; Smith, Macarena; González Ramírez, M. Constanza; Campusano, Jorge M.; Sierralta Jara, Jimena Alejandra; Hassan, Bassem A.; Oliva, Carlos (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      Neurogenesis is achieved through a sequence of steps that include specification and differentiation of progenitors into mature neurons. Frequently, precursors migrate to distinct positions before terminal differentiation. ...
    • Villanueva, Andrea A.; Falcón, Paulina; Espinoza, Natalie; Solano, R. Luis; Milla, Luis A.; Hernandez-SanMiguel, Esther; Torres, Vicente A.; Sanchez-Gomez, Pilar; Palma, Verónica (Impact Journals LLC, 2017)
      Neogenin-1 (NEO1) is a transmembrane receptor involved in axonal guidance, angiogenesis, neuronal cell migration and cell death, during both embryonic development and adult homeostasis. It has been described as a dependence ...
