      Depolarization of skeletal muscle cells by either high external K+ or repetitive extracellular field potential pulses induces calcium release from internal stores. The two components of this release are mediated by either ...
    • Lin, T. H.; Pajarinen, J.; Lu, L.; Nabeshima, A.; Córdova Jara, Luis; Yao, Z.; Goodman, S. B. (Elsevier, 2017)
      Inflammation is a defensive mechanism for pathogen clearance and maintaining tissue homeostasis. In the skeletal system, inflammation is closely associated with many bone disorders including fractures, nonunions, periprosthetic ...

    • Valdés, Juan Antonio; Gaggero, Eduardo; Hidalgo Tapia, Jorge; Leal, Nancy; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique; Carrasco Friz, María Angélica (AMER PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2008-03)
      Depolarization of skeletal muscle cells triggers intracellular calcium signals mediated by ryanodine and IP3 receptors. We have reported that K+-induced depolarization activates the transcriptional regulators ERKs, CREB, ...
    • Villanueva, Sandra; Suazo, Cristián; Santapau, Daniela; Pérez, Francisco; Quiroz, Mariana; Carreño, Juan E.; Illanes, Sebastián; Lavandero González, Sergio; Michea Acevedo, Luis; Irarrázabal, Carlos E. (Niels Olsen Saraiva Caˆmara, Universidade de Sao Paulo, Brazil, 2012)
      The current hypothesis postulates that NFAT5 activation in the kidney’s inner medulla is due to hypertonicity, resulting in cell protection. Additionally, the renal medulla is hypoxic (10–18 mmHg); however there is no ...
    • Fuente Marcos, R. de la; Fuente Marcos, C. de la; Moni Bidin, C.; Carraro, Giovanni; Costa Hechenleitner, Edgardo (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013)
      If stars form in clusters but most stars belong to the field, understanding the details of the transition from the former to the latter is imperative to explain the observational properties of the field. Aging open ...
    • Baume, Gustavo; Moitinho, A.; Vázquez, Rúben A.; Solivella, G.; Carraro, Giovanni; Villanova, S. (BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2006-04-21)
      Based on a deep optical CCD [UBV(RI)(C)] photometric survey and on the Two-Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) data, we derived the main parameters of the open cluster NGC 2401. We found that this cluster is placed at 6.3 +/- ...
    • Carraro, Giovanni; Méndez Bussard, René Alejandro; Costa Hechenleitner, Edgardo (2005)
      We report on VI charge-coupled device photometry of two fields centred in the region of the open clusters NGC 6404 and 6583 down to V = 22.0. So far these clusters have never been studied, and we provide for the first time ...
    • Carraro, Giovanni; Villanova, Sandro; Demarque, Pierre; McSwain, M. Virginia; Piotto, Giampaolo; Bedin, Luigi R. (UNIV CHICAGO PRESS, 2006-06-01)
      We report on high-resolution echelle spectroscopy of 20 giant stars in the Galactic old open cluster NGC 6791, obtained with Hydra at the WIYN telescope. High-precision radial velocity allows us to isolate 15 bona fide ...
