    • Changes in Rab3D expression and distribution in the acini of Sjögren's syndrome patients are associated ... 
      Bahamondes, Verónica; Albornoz, Amelina; Aguilera, Sergio; Alliende, Cecilia; Molina, Claudio; Castro, Isabel; Urzúa, Ulises; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Barrera, María José; González, Sergio; Sánchez, Marianela; Härtel, Steffen; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela; Leyton, Cecilia; González, Ma (2011)
      Objective Oral and ocular dryness are frequent and serious symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) that reflect problems in secretion due to glandular dysfunction. Exocytosis, an important process in the secretory pathway, ...
    • Differential gene expression in skeletal muscle cells after membrane depolarization 
      Juretic Díaz, Nevenka Militza; Urzúa, Ulises; Munroe, David J.; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique; Riveros, Nora (2007)
      Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue with a remarkable capacity to adapt itself to challenges imposed by contractile activity. Adaptive response, that include hypertrophy and activation of oxidative mechanisms have ...
    • Disruption of tight junction structure in salivary glands from Sjögren's syndrome patients is linked to ... 
      Ewert, Patricia; Aguilera, Sergio; Alliende, Cecilia; Kwon, Yoon Jeoung; Albornoz, Amelina; Molina, Claudio; Urzúa, Ulises; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Olea, Nancy; Pérez, Paola; Castro, Isabel; Barrera, María José; Romo, Rafael; Hermoso Ramello, Marcela; Leyton, Cecilia; González, Mar (2010)
      Objective. Disorganization of acinar cell apical microvilli and the presence of stromal collagen in the acinar lumen suggest that the labial salivary gland (LSG) barrier function is impaired in patients with Sjögren's ...
    • Tobacco smoke activates human papillomavirus 16 p97 promoter and cooperates with high-risk E6/E7 for oxidative ... 
      Peña, Nelson; Carrillo, Diego; Muñoz, Juan P.; Chnaiderman, Jonás; Urzúa, Ulises; León, Oscar; Tornesello, Maria L.; Corvalán, Alejandro H.; Soto Rifo, Ricardo; Aguayo, Francisco (Public Library of Science, 2015)
      We have previously shown a functional interaction between human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E6 and E7 oncoproteins and cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) in lung cells suggesting cooperation during carcinogenesis. The ...
    • Tumor and reproductive traits are linked by RNA metabolism genes in the mouse ovary: A transcriptome-phenotype ... 
      Urzúa, Ulises; Owens, Garrison A.; Zhang, Gen Mu; Cherry, James M.; Sharp, John J.; Munroe, David J. (2010)
      Background: The link between reproductive life history and incidence of ovarian tumors is well known. Periods of reduced ovulations may confer protection against ovarian cancer. Using phenotypic data available for mouse, ...
