Cáceres, Mónica; Tobar, Nicolás; Guerrero, Javier; Smith, Patricio C.; Martínez, Jorge (WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2008-02-15)In this study, we demonstrated that tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR and the autocrine expression of uPA and HB-EGF depend on the activity of c-jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) in human prostatic DU-145 cells. These cells ...

Cáceres, Mónica; Hidalgo Acosta, Rodrigo; Sanz, Antonio; Martínez, Jorge; Riera, Paula; Smith, Patricio C. (AMER ACAD PERIODONTOLOGY, 2008-04)Background: Platelet-rich plasma is a blood-derived fraction that contains a high concentration of platelets and growth factors. It was proposed that the use of this platelet concentrate stimulates tissue repair. However, ...

Juretic Díaz, Nevenka Militza; Santibáñez, Juan Francisco; Hurtado, Claudia; Martínez, Jorge (Wiley-Liss, 2001)Bone metastases from prostate origin generate an osteoblastic reaction that is expressed in vitro by increased osteoblast proliferation. The urokinase-like plasminogen activator (u-PA) present in the media conditioned ...

Ponce Calderón, Iván Emilio; Garrido, Nelson; Tobar Bachler, Nicolás Andrés; Melo, Francisco; Smith, Patricio; Martínez, Jorge (MDPI, 2021)Breast tumors belong to the type of desmoplastic lesion in which a stiffer tissue structure is a determinant of breast cancer progression and constitutes a risk factor for breast cancer development. It has been proposed ...

Rodríguez, J. Pablo; Montecinos, Luis; Ríos, Susana; Reyes, Patricio; Martínez, Jorge (Wiley-Liss, 2000)Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), precursor cells resident in the bone marrow, have the capacity to differentiate into bone, cartilage, fat, and connective tissue. We have recently reported that MSCs from "healthy" donors ...
