Lavados Montes, Manuel; Farías, Gustavo; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco; Guillón Moretti, Marta; Mujica, María; Maccioni, Cristóbal; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2005-09)Background. The presence of brain hyperphosphorylated tau constitutes a hallmark of neurodegenerative disorders of the Alzheimer's type. This report describes the relationships between tau markers in the cerebrospinal fluid ...

Cortés, Nicole; Andrade, Víctor; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (IOS Press, 2018)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most frequent type of dementia in the elderly, severely affecting functional and executive skills of subjects suffering from this disease. Moreover, the distress of caregivers as well as the ...

Mendoza Naranjo, Ariadna; González Billault, Christian; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2006-10-30)A number of psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, are characterized by abnormalities in the neuronal cytoskeleton. Here, we find that the enhancement in actin polymerization induced ...

Zambrano, C.A.; Marks, M.J.; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (Elsevier Ltd., 2009-05-19)Several cytisine derivatives have been developed in the search for more selective drugs at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). Binding experiments in transfected cell lines showed that the iodination of cytisine ...

Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo; Navarrete, Leonardo P.; González, Andrea; González Canacer, Alejandra; Guzmán Martínez, Leonardo; Cortes, Nicole (IOS Press, 2020)Several hypotheses have been postulated to explain how Alzheimer's disease is triggered, but none of them provide a unified view of its pathogenesis. The dominant hypothesis based on build-ups of the amyloid-beta peptide ...

Alvarez, Alejandra; Toro, Rodrigo; Cáceres, Alfredo; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (1999)The key target of this study was the tau protein kinase II system (TPK II) involving the catalytic subunit cdk5 and the regulatory component p35. TPK II is one of the tau phosphorylating systems in neuronal cells, thus ...

Quintanilla, Rodrigo A.; Orellana, Daniel I.; González Billault, Christian; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2004-04-15)Inflammation is a process that has been actively related with the onset of several neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer disease (AD). However, the precise implications of inflammatory response for neurodegeneration ...

Mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer patients display different levels of redox-active CSF iron Lavados Montes, Manuel; Guillón Moretti, Marta; Mujica, María Cristina; Rojo, Leonel; Fuentes, Patricio; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (IOS PRESS, 2008)Oxidative stress constitutes a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent studies also point to redox active metals such as iron, copper and zinc in mediating oxidative stress in AD pathogenesis. However, the reactivity ...

Andrade, Víctor; Cortés, Nicole; Pastor, Gabriela; González, Andrea; Ramos Escobar, Nicolás; Pastene, Edgar; Rojo, Leonel E.; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (IOS Press, 2020)Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial disease, that involves neuroinflammatory processes in which microglial cells respond to "damage signals". The latter includes oligomeric tau, iron, oxidative free ...
