Ávalos, Ana María; Arthur, William T.; Schneider, Pascal; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Burridge, Keith; Leyton Campos, Lisette (AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2004-09-10)Thy-1, a cell adhesion molecule abundantly expressed in mammalian neurons, binds to a beta(3)-containing integrin on astrocytes and thereby stimulates the assembly of focal adhesions and stress fibers. Such events lead to ...

Pérez González, Leonardo; Rashid, Aysha; Combs, J. Dale; Schneider, Pascal; Rodríguez, Andrés; Salaita, Khalid; Leyton Campos, Lisette (Frontiers Media, 2021)Astrocyte reactivity is associated with poor repair capacity after injury to the brain, where chemical and physical changes occur in the damaged zone. Astrocyte surface proteins, such as integrins, are upregulated, and the ...

Herrera Molina, Rodrigo; Frischknecht, Renato; Maldonado, Horacio; Seidenbecher, Constanze I.; Gundelfinger, Eckart D.; Hetz Flores, Claudio; Aylwin Ostale, María de la Luz; Schneider, Pascal; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Leyton Campos, Lisette (2012)Thy-1 is a membrane glycoprotein suggested to stabilize or inhibit growth of neuronal processes. However, its precise function has remained obscure, because its endogenous ligand is unknown. We previously showed that Thy-1 ...

Henríquez, Mauricio; Herrera Molina, Rodrigo; Valdivia, Alejandra; Alvarez, Alvaro; Kong, Milene; Muñoz, Nicolás; Eisner, Verónica; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique; Schneider, Pascal; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Leyton Campos, Lisette (2011)Thy-1, an abundant mammalian glycoprotein, interacts with avβ3 integrin and syndecan-4 in astrocytes and thus triggers signaling events that involve RhoA and its effector p160ROCK, thereby increasing astrocyte adhesion to ...

Tapia Pineda, Julio; Torres Gómez, Vicente; Rodríguez, D. A.; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2006-10-10)Increased expression of casein kinase 2 (CK2) is associated with hyperproliferation and suppression of apoptosis in cancer. Mutations in the tumor suppressor APC (adenomatous polyposis coli) are frequent in colon cancer ...

Bender, Florent; Montoya, Margarita; Monardes, Virginia; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (Society of Biology of Chile, 2002)Caveolae are small, flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane present on a large number of mammalian cells. Recent results obtained with knock-out mice for the gene caveolin-1 demonstrate that expression of caveolin-1 ...

Urra, Hery; Torres Gómez, Vicente; Ortiz, Rina J.; Lobos, Lorena; Díaz, María I.; Díaz, Natalia; Härtel, Steffen; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2012-04-10)Caveolin-1 is known to promote cell migration, and increased caveolin-1 expression is associated with tumor progression and metastasis. In fibroblasts, caveolin-1 polarization and phosphorylation of tyrosine-14 are essential ...
-
Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (Society of Biology of Chile, 2002)Cellular signaling is an area of intense research that transcends all fields of experimental biology. As such, progress in this domain will continue to have an ever-increasing impact on society in general and health-related ...

Vásquez Zuloaga, Darío Hernán (Universidad de Chile, 2015)Choroidal neovascularization is the third leading cause of blindness in the western world. Its etiology remains unknown. However, it has been established that both up-regulation of VEGF and down-regulation of PEDF at the ...
-
Díaz Valdivia, Natalia (Universidad de Chile, 2016)El cáncer corresponde a la segunda causa de muerte en Chile y el mundo, pero los pacientes con cáncer no mueren debido al crecimiento del tumor primario, sino a la diseminación de las células tumorales y posterior ...

Díaz Valdivia, Natalia; Bravo, Denisse; Huerta, Hernán; Henríquez, Soledad; Gabler Neale, Fernando; Vega Blanco, María Margarita; Romero Osses, Carmen; Calderón, Claudia; Owen, Gareth I.; Leyton Campos, Lisette; Quest, Andrew F. G. (BioMed Central, 2015)Background: Caveolin-1 (CAV1) has been implicated both in tumor suppression and progression, whereby the specific role appears to be context dependent. Endometrial cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the female ...
-
Maldonado Lorca, Horacio Javier (Universidad de Chile, 2015)Previamente describimos que la interacción entre Thy- 1 neuronal y la integrina αvβ3 presente en astrocitos aumenta la fosforilación inhibitoria de Src, provoca retracción de neuritas e inhibe el crecimiento de éstas. Sin ...
