    • beta(2)-Adrenoceptor stimulation restores frontal cortex plasticity and improves visuospatial performance ... 
      Sáez Briones, Patricio; Soto Moyano, Rubén; Burgos, Héctor; Castillo, Amparo; Valladares Boasi, Luis; Morgan Sabat, Carlos; Pérez, Hernán; Barra, Rafael; Constandil, Luis; Laurido, Claudio; Hernández, Alejandro (Elsevier, 2015)
      Moderate reduction in dietary protein composition of pregnant rats from 25% to 8% casein, calorically compensated by carbohydrates, has been described as a ‘‘hidden malnutrition’’ because it does not alter body and brain ...
    • Hypertension in prenatally undernourished young-adult rats is maintained by tonic reciprocal paraventricu ... 
      Cayupe, Bernardita; Morgan, Carlos; Puentes, Gustavo; Valladares Boasi, Luis Emilio; Burgos, Héctor; Castillo, Amparo; Hernández, Alejandro; Constandil, Luis; Ríos, Miguel; Sáez Briones, Patricio; Barra, Rafael (MDPI, 2021)
      Prenatally malnourished rats develop hypertension in adulthood, in part through increased alpha(1)-adrenoceptor-mediated outflow from the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) to the sympathetic system. We studied whether both ...
    • Melatonin administration impairs visuo-spatial performance and inhibits neocortical long-term potentiation in rats 
      Soto Moyano, Rubén; Burgos, Héctor; Flores, Francisco; Valladares Boasi, Luis; Sierralta, Walter; Fernández Hidalgo, Víctor; Pérez, Hernán; Hernández, Paula; Hernández, Alejandro (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2006-10)
      Melatonin has been shown to inhibit long-term potentiation (LTP) in hippocampal slices of rats. Since LTP may be one of the main mechanisms by which memory traces are encoded and stored in the central nervous system, it ...
    • Mild prenatal protein malnutrition increases alpha(2C)-adrenoceptor density in the cerebral cortex during ... 
      Soto Moyano, Rubén; Valladares Boasi, Luis; Sierralta, Walter; Pérez, Hernán; Mondaca, Mauricio; Fernández, Víctor; Burgos, Héctor; Hernández Hidalgo, Alejandro (BLACKWELL PUBLISHING LTD, 2005-06)
      Mild reduction in the protein content of the mother's diet from 25 to 8% casein, calorically compensated by carbohydrates, does not alter body and brain weights of rat pups at birth, but leads to significant enhancements ...
    • Preference for high-fat diet is developed by young Swiss CD1 mice after short-term feeding and is prevented ... 
      Buttigieg, Angie; Flores, Osvaldo; Hernández, Alejandro; Sáez Briones, Patricio; Burgos, Héctor; Morgan Sabat, Carlos (Elsevier, 2014)
      Obesity is a worldwide epidemic that is increasing at an alarming rate. One of its causes is the increased availability and consumption of diets rich in fat. In the present study, we investigated the effects of ...
