    • The Expression of RAC1 and Mineralocorticoid Pathway- Dependent Genes are Associated With Different Responses ... 
      Tapia Castillo, Alejandra; Carvajal, Cristian; Campino, Carmen; Hill, Caroline; Allende, Fidel; Vecchiola, Andrea; Carrasco, Carmen; Bancalari, Rodrigo; Valdivia, Carolina; Lagos, Carlos; Martínez Aguayo, Alejandro; García, Hernán; Aglony, Marlene; Baudrand, René; Kalergis, Alexis; Michea Acevedo, Luis; Riedel, Claudia; Fardella, Carlos (Oxford University Press, 2015)
      BACKGROUND Rac1 upregulation has been implicated in salt-sensitive hypertension as a modulator of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) activity. Rac1 could affect the expression of oxidative stress markers, such as ...
    • Identification of novel 11b-HSD1 inhibitors by combined ligand- and structure-based virtual screening 
      Lagos, Carlos F.; Vecchiola, Andrea; Allende, Fidel; Fuentes, Cristóbal A.; Tichauer, Juan E.; Valdivia, Carolina; Solari, Sandra; Campino, Carmen; Tapia Castillo, Alejandra; Baudrand, René; Villarroel, Pia; Cifuentes, Mariana; Owen, Gareth I.; Carvajal, Cristian A.; Fardella, Carlos E. (Elsevier, 2014)
      11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11b-HSD1) converts cortisone to cortisol in a NADPH dependent manner. Overexpression of 11b-HSD1 in key metabolic tissues is related to the development of type 2 diabetes, ...
    • La melatonina reduce la respuesta de cortisol al ACTH en humanos 
      Campino, Carmen; Valenzuela, Francisco; Arteaga, Eugenio; Torres Farfán, Claudia; Trucco, Cristián; Velasco, Alfredo; Guzmán, Sergio; Serón Ferré, María (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2008-11)
      Background: Melatonin receptors are widely distributed in human tissues but they have not been reported in human adrenal gland. Aim: To assess if the human adrenal gland expresses melatonin receptors and if melatonin affects ...
    • Polymorphisms in the RAC1 gene are associated with hypertension risk factors in a chilean pediatric population 
      Tapia Castillo, Alejandra; Carvajal, Cristian A.; Campino, Carmen; Vecchiola, Andrea; Allende, Fidel; Solari, Sandra; García Nannig, Lorena; Lavandero González, Sergio; Valdivia, Carolina; Fuentes, Cristobal; Lagos, Carlos F.; Martínez Aguayo, Alejandro; Baudrand, René; Aglony, Marlene; García, Hernán; Fardella, Carlos E. (Oxford University Press, 2014)
      The GTPase Rac1 has been implicated in hypertension as a modulator of mineralocorticoid receptor activity. Our aim is to investigate the frequency of polymorphisms rs10951982 (intron 1, G>A) and rs836478 (intron 3, T>C) ...
