    • Landeros Pérez, Natalia; Santoro, Pablo; Carrasco Aviño, Gonzalo; Corvalán, Alejandro H. (MDPI, 2020)
      The diffuse-type of gastric cancer is associated with epithelial to mesenchymal transition. Loss of E-cadherin expression is the hallmark of this process and is largely due to the upregulation of the transcription factors ...
    • Muñoz, Juan Pablo; González, Carolina; Parra, Bárbara; Corvalán, Alejandro H.; Tornesello, Maria Lina; Eizuru, Yoshito; Aguayo, Francisco (2012)
      The smoking habit is the most important, but not a sufficient cause for lung cancer development. Several studies have reported the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) presence and E6 and E7 transcripts expression in lung ...

G.; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (BMC, 2020)
      Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have shown great potential for targeted therapy, as they have a natural ability to pass through biological barriers and, depending on their origin, can preferentially accumulate at ...
    • Valenzuela, Manuel A.; Canales, Jimena; Corvalán, Alejandro H.; Quest, Andrew F. G. (WJG Press, 2015)
      © The Author(s) 2015. Published by Baishideng Publishing Group Inc. All rights reserved. The sequence of events associated with the development of gastric cancer has been described as "the gastric precancerous cascade". ...
    • Valenzuela, Manuel; Pérez Pérez, Guillermo; Corvalán, Alejandro H.; Carrasco, Gonzalo; Urra, Hery; Bravo, Denisse; Toledo, Héctor; Quest, Andrew F. G. (2010)
      Helicobacter pylori infects the human stomach and modifies signaling pathways that affect gastric epithelial cell proliferation and viability. Chronic exposure to this pathogen contributes to the onset of gastric atrophy, ...
