      One of the approaches to address cancer treatment is to develop new drugs not only to obtain compounds with less side effects, but also to have a broader set of alternatives to tackle the resistant forms of this pathology. ...
    • Young, Rodrigo M.; Reyes, Ariel E.; Allende Connelly, Miguel (2002)
      Wnt signalling has been implicated in antero-posterior patterning of the vertebrate embryonic body axis and in a number of other developmental processes. One of the downstream effectors of Wnt signalling is the β-catenin ...

    • Cumplido Salas, Nicolás; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Arratia, Gloria (BMC, 2020)
      Background With more than 30,000 species, teleosts comprise about half of today's living vertebrates, enriched with a wide set of adaptations to all aquatic systems. Their evolution was marked by modifications of their ...
    • Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Feijóo, Carmen Gloria; Manzanares, Miguel; Tena, Juan J.; Rodríguez Seguel, Elisa; Letizia, Annalisa; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis (COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, 2010-05-25)
      Recent studies of the genome architecture of vertebrates have uncovered two unforeseen aspects of its organization. First, large regions of the genome, called gene deserts, are devoid of protein-coding sequences and have ...
    • Parada-Kusz, Margarita; Penaranda, Cristina; Hagedorn, Elliott J.; Clatworthy, Anne; Nair, Anil V.; Henninger, Jonathan E.; Ernst, Christoph; Li, Brian; Riquelme, Raquel; Jijon, Humberto; Villablanca, Eduardo J.; Zon, Leonard I.; Hung, Deborah; Allende Connelly, Miguel (Company of Biologists Ltd, 2018)
      © 2018. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd. Xenografts of the hematopoietic system are extremely useful as disease models and for translational research. Zebrafish xenografts have been widely used to monitor blood ...
    • Alvarez, Marjorie; Reynaert, Nicole; Chávez, Myra N.; Aedo, Geraldine; Araya, Francisco; Hopfner, Úrsula; Fernández Hidalgo, Juan; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Egaña, José T. (Public Library Science, 2015)
      The extreme dependence on external oxygen supply observed in animals causes major clinical problems and several diseases are related to low oxygen tension in tissues. The vast majority of the animals do not produce oxygen ...
    • Díaz Pascual, Francisco; Ortiz Severin, Javiera; Varas, Macarena A.; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Chávez Espinosa, Francisco (Frontiers media SA, 2017)
      The outcome of a host-pathogen interaction is determined by the conditions of the host, the pathogen, and the environment. Although numerous proteomic studies of in vitro-grown microbial pathogens have been performed, in ...
