Dünner, Natalia; Quezada, Carolina; Berndt, F. Andrés; Cánovas, José; Rojas Baechler, Cecilia (2013-10)The renin-angiotensin system expressed in adipose tissue has been implicated in the modulation of adipocyte formation, glucose metabolism, triglyceride accumulation, lipolysis, and the onset of the adverse metabolic ...

Cifuentes, Mariana; Albala Brevis, Cecilia; Rojas Baechler, Cecilia (SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2008)It has been proposed that differences in adipocyte function and/or metabolism between obese and lean individuals may manifest themselves in functional adipose tissue abnormalities that lead to metabolic disorders in obesity. ...

Brücher, Rodrigo; Cifuentes, Mariana; Acuña, María José; Albala Brevis, Cecilia; Rojas Baechler, Cecilia (NORTH AMER ASSOC STUDY OBESITY, 2007-07)Objective: The ability to form new adipose cells is important to adipose tissue physiology; however, the mechanisms controlling the recruitment of adipocyte progenitors are poorly understood. A role for locally generated ...

Rojas Baechler, Cecilia; Greiner, Rebecca S.; Fuenzalida, Lidia C.; Martínez, Jessica I.; Salem, Norman; Uauy Dagach-Imbarack, Ricardo (AMER OIL CHEMISTS SOC A O C S PRESS, 2002-04)Peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) are a FA-response system involved in diverse cellular responses. FA regulate PPAR activity and modulate PPAR mRNA abundance. Increasing evidence indicates that PUFA are ...

Cifuentes, Mariana; Fuentes, Cecilia; Mattar, Pamela; Tobar, Nicolas; Hugo, Eric; Ben-Jonathan, Nira; Rojas Baechler, Cecilia; Martínez, Jorge (2010)Obesity-associated health complications are thought to be in part due to the low-grade proinflammatory state that characterizes this disease. The calcium sensing receptor (CaSR), which is expressed in human adipose cells, ...
