Vial, Clarisa; Armas Portela, Rosario; Avila, Jesús; González, Mauricio; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1995)Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) interact with tubulin in vitro and in vivo. Despite that there is a large amount of information on the roles of these proteins in neurons, the data on non-neuronal MAPs or MAPs-related ...

Moraga, Daniel M.; Nuñez, Patricio; Garrido, Jorge; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (1993)Abstract: Much indirect evidence suggests that the interconnections of actin microfilaments with the microtubule system are mediated by microtubule‐associated proteins (MAPs). In this study we provide new data to support ...

Núñez Millacura, Claudia; Tapia, Victoria; Muñoz, Patricia; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo; Núñez González, Marco (2002)Intracellular reactive iron is a source of free radicals and a possible cause of cell damage. In this study, we analyzed the changes in iron homeostasis generated by iron accumulation in neuroblastoma (N2A) cells and ...

Sáez, Estefanía T.; Pehar, Mariana; Vargas, Marcelo; Barbeito, Luis; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (2004)Production of nitric oxide (NO) by glial cells has been proposed to mediate cytotoxic effects on neighboring neurons. Although extensive genetic data implicate the beta amyloid peptide (Aβ) in the neurodegenerative cascade ...

Mendoza Naranjo, Ariadna; González Billault, Christian; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (2007)A number of psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, are characterized by abnormalities in the neuronal cytoskeleton. Here, we find that the enhancement in actin polymerization induced by ...

Carrasco-Gallardo, Carlos; Farías, Gonzalo A.; Fuentes, Patricio; Crespo, Fernando; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (2012)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a brain disorder displaying a prevalence and impact in constant expansion. This expansive and epidemic behavior is concerning medical and public opinion while focusing efforts on its prevention ...

Cross, Daniel; Farías, Gustavo; Domínguez, Jorge; Avila, Jesús; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1994)After the finding of the involvement of the C-terminal moieties of tubulin subunits in the interaction of MAPs, different studies have focused on the substructure of the binding domains for the different MAPs. Current ...

Muñoz, Juan P.; Huichalaf, Claudia H.; Orellana, Daniel; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (2007)The cdk5/p35 complex has been implicated in a variety of functions related to brain development, including axonal outgrown and neuronal migration. In this study, by co-immunoprecipitation and pull-down experiments, we have ...

Cortés, Nicole; Guzmán Martínez, Leonardo; Andrade, Víctor; González, Andrea; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (IOS Press, 2019)The cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is known as an exceptional component of the CDK family, due to its characteristic regulatory pathways and its atypical roles in comparison to the classical cyclins. Despite its functional ...
