    • Dexamethasone-induced muscular atrophy is mediated by functional expression of connexin-based hemichannels 
      Cea Pisani, Luis; Balboa, Elisa; Puebla, Carlos; Vargas, Aníbal; Cisterna, Bruno; Escamilla, Rosalba; Regueira, Tomás; Sáez, Juan C. (Elsevier, 2016)
      Long-term treatment with high glucocorticoid doses induces skeletal muscle atrophy. However, the molecular mechanism of such atrophy remains unclear. We evaluated the possible involvement of connexin-based hemichannels (Cx ...
    • Fast skeletal myofibers of mdx mouse, model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, express connexin hemichannels ... 
      Cea Pisani, Luis Andrés; Puebla, Carlos; Cisterna, Bruno A.; Escamilla, Rosalba; Vargas, Anibal A.; Frank, Marina; Martinez Montero, Paloma; Prior, Carmen; Molano, Jesus; Esteban Rodríguez, Isabel; Pascual, Ignacio; Gallano, Pía; Lorenzo, Gustavo; Pian, Héctor; Barrio, Luis C.; Willecke, Kla; Saez, Juan C. (Springer, 2016)
      Skeletal muscles of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) show numerous alterations including inflammation, apoptosis, and necrosis of myofibers. However, the molecular mechanism that explains these changes remains ...
    • Sepsis induced channelopathy in skeletal muscles is associated with expression of non selective channels 
      Balboa, Elisa; Saavedra Leiva, Fujiko; Cea Pisani, Luis Andrés; Vargas, Anibal A.; Ramírez, Valeria; Escamilla, Rosalba; Saez, Juan C.; Regueira, Tomás (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2018)
      Skeletal muscles (similar to 50% of the body weight) are affected during acute and late sepsis and represent one sepsis associate organ dysfunction. Cell membrane changes have been proposed to result from a channelopathy ...
