    • 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, a microbiota-derived metabolite of quercetin, protects against pancreatic ... 
      Carrasco Pozo, Catalina; Gotteland, Martín; Castillo, Rodrigo; Chen, Chen (Elsevier, 2015)
      Cholesterol plays an important role in inducing pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction, characterized by an impaired insulin secretory response to glucose, representing a hallmark of the transition from pre-diabetes to diabetes. ...
    • Cardioprotection against ischaemia/reperfusion by vitamins C and E plus n−3 fatty acids: molecular mechanisms ... 
      Rodrigo Salinas, Ramón; Prieto Domínguez, Juan; Castillo, Rodrigo (2013)
      The role of oxidative stress in ischaemic heart disease has been thoroughly investigated in humans. Increased levels of ROS (reactive oxygen species) and RNS (reactive nitrogen species) have been demonstrated during ischaemia ...
    • Diminution of tissue lipid peroxidation in rats is related to the in vitro antioxidant capacity of wine 
      Rodrigo Salinas, Ramón; Castillo, Rodrigo; Carrasco, Rodrigo; Huerta, Patricio; Moreno, Manuel (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2005-06-07)
      Wine polyphenols could reinforce the endogenous antioxidant system. thereby diminishing oxidative damage. Studies in chronic models to understand the relationship between the bioavailability of polyphenols and their ...
    • Limnological response from high‑altitude wetlands to the water supply in the Andean Altiplano 
      García Sanz, Ignacio; Heine Fuster, Inger Andrea; Luque, José A.; Pizarro Martínez, Héctor Orlando; Castillo, Rodrigo; Pailahual, Matías; Prieto, Manuel; Pérez Portilla, Pablo; Aránguiz Acuña, Adriana (Nature, 2021)
      The Andean Altiplano-Puna is located at an elevation of approximately 4000 m.a.s.l. and is delineated by the Western and the Eastern Andes Cordillera. The high-altitude wetlands (HAWs) in the Central Andes are unique ...
    • Oxidative stress as a novel target in pediatric sepsis management 
      Dessauer, Bettina von; Bongain, Jazmina; Molina, Víctor; Quilodrán, Julio; Castillo, Rodrigo; Rodrigo Salinas, Ramón (Elsevier, 2011)
      Sepsis with secondary multisystem organ dysfunction syndrome is the leading cause of death in the pediatric intensive care unit. Increased reactive oxygen species may influence circulating and endothelial cells, contributing ...
    • Prevention of atrial fibrillation following cardiac surgery: Basis for a novel therapeutic strategy based ... 
      Rodrigo Salinas, Ramón; Cereceda, Mauricio; Castillo, Rodrigo; Asenjo, René; Zamorano, Jaime; Araya, Julia; Castillo Koch, Rodrigo; Espinoza Huircalaf, Juan; Larraín Riesco, Ernesto (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008-04)
      Atrial fibrillation is the most common complication of cardiac surgical procedures performed with cardiopulmonary bypass. It contributes to increased hospital length of stay and treatment costs. At present, preventive ...
