    • Espinosa, Alejandra; Estrada Hormazábal, Manuel; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique (SOC ENDOCRINOLOGY, 2004-08)
      We studied the effect of IGF-I and insulin on intracellular Ca2+ in primary cultured myotubes. IGF-I induced a fast and transient Ca2+ increase, measured as fluo-3 fluorescence. This response was blocked by both genistein ...

      Intracellular calcium levels ([Ca2+](i)) and glucose uptake are central to cardiomyocyte physiology, yet connections between them have not been studied. We investigated whether insulin regulates [Ca2+](i) in cultured ...
    • Contreras Ferrat, Ariel Eduardo; Llanos Vidal, Paola; Vásquez, César; Espinosa, Alejandra; Osorio Fuentealba, César; Arias Calderón, Manuel; Lavandero González, Sergio; Klip, Amira; Hidalgo Tapia, María Cecilia; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique (The Company of Biologists Ltd, 2014)
      Insulin signaling includes generation of low levels of H2O2; however, its origin and contribution to insulin-stimulated glucose transport are unknown. We tested the impact of H2O2 on insulin-dependent glucose transport ...
    • Ibarra, Cristián; Estrada Hormazábal, Manuel; Carrasco Mujica, Loreto; Chiong Lay, Mario; Liberona Leppe, José; Cárdenas, César; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique; Lavandero González, Sergio (Amer Biochemistry Molecular Biology, 2004-02-27)
      In the heart, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a pro-hypertrophic and anti-apoptotic peptide. In cultured rat cardiomyocytes, IGF-1 induced a fast and transient increase in Ca-i(2+) levels apparent both in the nucleus ...
    • Contreras Ferrat, Ariel Eduardo (Universidad de Chile, 2007)
      Insulina y su receptor (RI) regulan el metabolismo de ácidos grasos y carbohidratos en el corazón. La activación de este receptor por su ligando endógeno desencadena una serie de eventos reguladores de la homeostasis energética ...
