      Calcium (Ca2+) is a key player in the regulation of many cell functions. Just like Ca2+, mitochondria are ubiquitous, versatile, and dynamic players in determining both cell survival and death decisions. Given their ...
    • Mattar, Pamela; Pino Sanhueza, Sofía Carolina; Yuri, Gabriela; Briones, Lautaro; Pérez Leighton, Claudio; Rudich, Assaf; Lavandero González, Sergio; Cifuentes Koster, Mariana (MDPI, 2020)
      Autophagy is upregulated in adipose tissue (AT) from people with obesity. We showed that activation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) elevates proinflammatory cytokines through autophagy in preadipocytes. Our aim is ...
