      Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are multifactorial diseases with a genetic background. Genes related to the innate immune response have been observed to be involved. Polymorphisms of Toll-like receptor 4 ...
    • Beltrán, Caroll J.; Candia, Enzo; Erranz, Benjamín; Figueroa, Carolina; Gonzalez, Maria J.; Quera Pino, Rodrigo; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela (2009)
      Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) belong to the group of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), with complex ethiopathogenic factors that include an unbalanced immune and inflammatory response to commensal and ...
    • Beltrán, Caroll J.; Candia, Enzo; Erranz, Benjamín; Figueroa, Carolina; Gonzalez, Maria J.; Quera Pino, Rodrigo; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela (2009)
    • Arancibia, Sergio; Benítez, Dixán; Núñez, Lucia E.; Jewell, Christine M.; Langjahr, Patricia; Candia, Enzo; Zapata Torres, Gerald; Cidlowski, John A.; González Burgos, María Julieta; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela (2011)
      Airway inflammation is a common condition where glucocorticoids (GC) are a well-established therapy. It has been demonstrated that GC stimulate components of innate immunity. Specifically, GC up-regulate TLR2 expression ...
    • Pérez Núñez, Ramón Daniel (Universidad de ChilePrograma Cybertesis, 2008)
      Durante la inflamación de las mucosas, las células epiteliales y los macrófagos expresan el receptor de tipo Toll 4 (TLR4) y secretan citoquinas, las que potencian el cuadro. Sin embargo, hasta ahora existe escasa información ...
    • Arancibia Zunino, Sergio Andrés (Universidad de Chile, 2006)
      Los receptores tipo Toll (TLR) son proteínas de transmembrana que reconocen patrones moleculares asociados a patógenos (PAMPs). El TLR2 reconoce PAMPs de bacterias gram positivas, los cuales activan una vía de señalización ...
    • Benitez, Dixan A.; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela; Pozo-Guisado, Eulalia; Fernández-Salguero, Pedro M.; Castellón, Enrique A. (2009)
      BACKGROUND. Polyphenols have been proposed as antitumoral agents. We have shown that resveratrol (RES) induced cell cycle arrest and promoted apoptosis in prostate cancer cells by inhibition of the PI3K pathway. The RES ...
    • Valiente Echeverría, Fernando; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela; Soto Rifo, Ricardo (Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
      Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD)-box polypeptide 3, or DDX3, belongs to the DEAD-box family of ATP-dependent RNA helicases and is known to play different roles in RNA metabolism ranging from transcription to nuclear export, ...
    • Reyes, María E.; Fuente López, Marjorie de la; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela; Ili, Carmen G.; Brebi, Priscilla (Frontiers Media, 2020)
      Cancer is a significant medical issue, being one of the main causes of mortality around the world. The therapies for this pathology depend on the stage in which the cancer is found, but it is usually diagnosed at an advanced ...
