    • Andean high-altitude ancestry does not protect from acute mountain sickness and altitude-induced arterial hypoxemia 
      Cabello, Gertrudis; Fariña, Emilio; Jeldres, Alejandro; Rimoldi, Stefano F.; Scherrer, Urs (Interciencia Association, 2017)
      It is thought that adaptive changes protect high-altitude populations against altitude-induced diseases, but information from well controlled studies is lacking. In a prospective, controlled study, we assessed the prevalence ...
    • Carbon monoxide: a novel pulmonary artery vasodilator in neonatal llamas of the Andean altiplano 
      Herrera Videla, Emilio; Reyes, Roberto V.; Giussani, Dino A.; Riquelme González, Raquel; Sanhueza Reinoso, Emilia; Ebensperger Darrouy, Germán; Casanello, Paola; Méndez, Natalia; Ebensperger, Renato; Sepúlveda Kattan, Esteban; Pulgar, Víctor M.; Cabello, Gertrudis; Blanco, Carlos E.; Hanson, Mark A.; Parer, Julian T.; Llanos Mansilla, Jorge (European Society of Cardiology, 2008)
      Aims To study the nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide roles in the regulation of the pulmonary circulation in lowland and highland newborn sheep and llamas. Methods and results We used neonatal sheep (Ovis aries) and ...
    • Cardiorespiratory functions in the fetal llama 
      Benavides, Claudio E.; Pérez, Rubén; Cerda Espinoza, Mauricio Alexis; Cabello, Gertrudis; Riquelme, Raquel; Parer, Julian T.; Llanos Mansilla, Jorge (1989)
      Factors which allow the adaptation of adult llamas to oxygen limitation include principally: low P50, small elliptical red cells with high hemoglobin concentration, high muscle myoglobin concentration, high capillary density ...
    • Comparative analysis of the professional teaching profile expected by students from the Universidad de ... 
      Cabello, Gertrudis; Valenzuela, Mario; Yañez, Franklin; Pages, Teresa; Sayos, Rosa (Interciencia, 2018-03)
      The revision and evaluation of the teaching practice is a demand of the society that every time demands a better formation of competent professionals in its area. An essential edge in the training process, which must be ...
    • Comparative analysis of the professional teaching profile expected by students from the Universidad de ... 
      Cabello, Gertrudis; Valenzuela, Mario; Yánez, Franklin; Pagés, Teresa; Sayós, Rosa (Interciencia Association, 2018)

    • Evolving in thin air-Lessons from the llama fetus in the altiplano 
      Llanos Mansilla, Jorge; Riquelme, Raquel A.; Herrera, Emilio A.; Ebensperger Darrouy, Germán; Krause, Bernardo; Reyes, Roberto V.; Sanhueza, Emilia M.; Pulgar, Víctor M.; Behn, Claus; Cabello, Gertrudis; Parer, Julian T.; Giussani, Dino A.; Blanco, Carlos E.; Hanson, Mark A. (2007)
      Compared with lowland species, fetal life for mammalian species whose mothers live in high altitude is demanding. For instance, fetal llamas have to cope with the low fetal arterial PO2 of all species, but also the likely ...
    • Long-term exposure to high-altitude chronic hypoxia during gestation induces neonatal pulmonary hypertension ... 
      Herrera, Emilio A.; Riquelme, Raquel A.; Ebensperger Darrouy, Germán; Reyes, Roberto V.; Ulloa, César E.; Cabello, Gertrudis; Krause, Bernardo J.; Parer, Julian T.; Giussani, Dino A.; Llanos Mansilla, Jorge (2010)
      We determined whether postnatal pulmonary hypertension induced by 70% of pregnancy at high altitude (HA) persists once the offspring return to sea level and investigated pulmonary vascular mechanisms operating under these ...
    • Regional brain blood flow and cerebral hemispheric oxygen consumption during acute hypoxaemia in the Ilama fetus 
      Llanos Mansilla, Jorge; Riquelme, Raquel A.; Sanhueza, Emilia M.; Herrera Videla, Emilio; Cabello, Gertrudis; Giussani, Dino A.; Parer, Julian T. (2002)
      Unlike fetal animals of lowland species, the llama fetus does not increase its cerebral blood flow during an episode of acute hypoxaemia. This study tested the hypothesis that the fetal llama brain maintains cerebral ...
    • Role of the phosphatase PP4 in the activation of JNK-1 in prostate carcinoma cell lines PC-3 and LNCaP ... 
      Inostroza, Juan; Sáenz Iturriaga, Leonardo Enrique; Calaf, Gloria; Cabello, Gertrudis; Parra, Eduardo (Society of Biology of Chile, 2005)
      The specific signaling connections between the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) such as c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK-1) and phosphatases PP4 and M3/6, affecting the family of early nuclear factors, is complex and ...
    • Role of the RhoA/ROCK pathway in high-altitude associated neonatal pulmonary hypertension in lambs 
      López, Nandy; Ebensperger Darrouy, Germán; Herrera Videla, Emilio; Reyes, Roberto V.; Calaf, Gloria; Cabello, Gertrudis; Moraga, Fernando; Benaldo, Felipe A.; Díaz, Marcela; Parer, Julian T.; Llanos Mansilla, Jorge (Amer Physiological Soc, 2016)
      Exposure to high-altitude chronic hypoxia during pregnancy may cause pulmonary hypertension in neonates, as a result of vasoconstriction and vascular remodeling. We hypothesized that susceptibility to pulmonary hypertension, ...
    • The heme oxygenase-carbon monoxide system in the regulation of cardiorespiratory function at high altitude 
      Llanos Mansilla, Jorge; Ebensperger Darrouy, Germán; Herrera, Emilio A.; Reyes, Roberto V.; Cabello, Gertrudis; Díaz Díaz, Marcela Cecilia; Giussani, Dino A.; Parer, Julian T. (2012)
      Pulmonary arterial hypertension is one of the most serious pathologies that can affect the 140 million people living at altitudes over 2500. m. The primary emphasis of this review is pulmonary artery hypertension in mammals ...
