    • Angiotensin (1-7) decreases myostatin-induced NF-kappa B signaling and skeletal muscle atrophy 
      Aravena, Javier; Abrigo, Johanna; González, Francisco; Aguirre, Francisco; González, Andrea; Simon Pino, Felipe; Cabello Verrugio, Claudio (MDPI, 2020)
      Myostatin is a myokine that regulates muscle function and mass, producing muscle atrophy. Myostatin induces the degradation of myofibrillar proteins, such as myosin heavy chain or troponin. The main pathway that mediates ...
    • Cholic acid and deoxycholic acid induce skeletal muscle atrophy through a mechanism dependent on TGR5 receptor 
      Abrigo, Johanna; González, Francisco; Aguirre, Francisco; Tacchi, Franco; González, Andrea; Meza, María Paz; Simón, Felipe; Cabrera, Daniel; Arrese, Marco; Karpen, Saúl; Cabello Verrugio, Claudio (Wiley, 2020)
      Skeletal muscle atrophy is characterized by the degradation of myofibrillar proteins, such as myosin heavy chain or troponin. An increase in the expression of two muscle-specific E3 ligases, atrogin-1 and MuRF-1, and ...
    • Protective effect of Angiotensin 1–7 on Sarcopenia induced by chronic liver disease in mice 
      Aguirre, Francisco; Abrigo, Johanna; Altimiras González, Francisco; González, Andrea; Simon, Felipe; Cabello Verrugio, Claudio (MDPI, 2020)
      Sarcopenia associated with chronic liver disease (CLD) is one of the more common extrahepatic features in patients with these pathologies. Among the cellular alterations observed in the muscle tissue under CLD is the decline ...
