      The aim of this work was to study the effect of anti-TNF treatment on CD4+ Th1, Th17 and regulatory T cells (Tregs), together with CD8+ T cells and NK cells from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. For this purpose, 18 RA ...
    • Catalán Martina, Diego; Aravena, Octavio; Sabugo, Francisca; Wurmann, Pamela; Soto, Lilian; Kalergis, Alexis M.; Cuchacovich Turteltaub, Miguel; Aguillón Gutiérrez, Juan Carlos (2010)
      Introduction: Several molecules help preserve peripheral B cell tolerance, but when altered, they may predispose to autoimmunity. This work studied the expression of the costimulatory molecule CD86 and the inhibitory ...

      Background and aims: Periodontitis is an infection with an episodic nature of tissue support destruction. The aim of this work was to determine the levels of chemokines, cytokines, matrix metalloproteinase-13, periodontal ...
    • Aguillón Gutiérrez, Juan Carlos; Cruzat, Andrea; Aravena, Octavio; Salazar, Lorena; Llanos, Carolina; Cuchacovich Turteltaub, Miguel (ELSEVIER, 2006)
      Tumour necrosis factor (TNF), a cytokine mainly produced by macrophages, is associated with a broad spectrum of biological effects, mainly associated with the host defense against microbes. The TNF gene Is located on ...
    • Peña, Corina; Gárate, David; Contreras Levicoy, Juan; Aravena, Octavio; Catalán Martina, Diego; Aguillón Gutiérrez, Juan Carlos (2013)
      Background. Pharmacologically modulated dendritic cells (DCs) have been shown to restore tolerance in type II collagen- (CII-) induced arthritis (CIA). We examined the effect of dexamethasone (DXM) administration as a ...
    • Ashley Andrés Ferrier Espósito (Universidad de Chile, 2022)
      La Artritis Reumatoide (AR) es una enfermedad sistémica autoinmune crónica en cuya inmunopatogenia los monocitos cumplen un rol fundamental en el desarrollo y perpetuación de la enfermedad, siendo un potencial blanco de ...
    • Catalán Martina, Diego Francisco; Mansilla, Miguel Andrés; Ferrier Espósito, Ashley Andrés; Soto, Lilian; Oleinika, Kristine; Aguillón Gutiérrez, Juan Carlos; Aravena, Octavio (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      Regulatory B cells (Bregs) is a term that encompasses all B cells that act to suppress immune responses. Bregs contribute to the maintenance of tolerance, limiting ongoing immune responses and reestablishing immune ...
    • González, Carlos; Abello, Paula; Cepeda, Raquel; Salazar, Lorena; Aravena, Octavio; Pesce Reyes, Bárbara; Catalán Martina, Diego; Aguillón Gutiérrez, Juan Carlos (2007)
      Using the murine model of type II collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), we studied its evolution over time by histopathological, immunohistochemical and clinical evaluations. The first clinical symptoms appeared 28 days ...
