    • Beta-Actin shows limited mobility and is required only for supraphysiological insulin-stimulated glucose ... 
      Madsen, Agnete R.; Knudsen, Jonas R.; Henríquez Olguín, Carlos; Angin, Yeliz; Zaal, Kristien J.; Sylow, Lykke; Schjerling, Peter; Ralston, Evelyn; Jensen, Thomas E. (American Physiological Society, 2018)
      Studies in skeletal muscle cell cultures suggest that the cortical actin cytoskeleton is a major requirement for insulin-stimulated glucose transport, implicating the beta-actin isoform, which in many cell types is the ...
    • Endofacial competitive inhibition of the glucose transporter 1 activity by gossypol 
      Pérez, Alejandra; Ojeda, Paola; Valenzuela, Ximena; Ortega, Marcela; Sánchez, Claudio; Ojeda, Lorena; Castro, Maite; Cárcamo, Juan G.; Rauch, M. Cecilia; Concha, Ilona I.; Rivas, Coralia I.; Vera, Juan C.; Reyes, Alejandro M. (2009)
      Gossypol is a natural disesquiterpene that blocks the activity of the mammalian facilitative hexose transporter GLUT1. In human HL-60 cells, which express GLUT1, Chinese hamster ovary cells overexpressing GLUT1, and human ...
    • Energy requirements of odor transduction in the chemosensory cilia of olfactory sensory neurons rely on ... 
      Villar, Pablo; Delgado Arriagada, Ricardo; Vergara Montecinos, Cecilia; Reyes, Juan G.; Bacigalupo Vicuña, Juan (Soc Neuroscience, 2017-06-07)
      The mechanisms that power the physiological events occurring in cilia, flagella, and microvilli are of fundamental importance for the functions of these important and ubicuous organelles. The olfactory epithelium is mostly ...
    • Glyburide treatment in gestational diabetes is associated with increased placental glucose transporter 1 ... 
      Paredes Díaz, Paula Andrea; Dimasuay, Kris Genelyn; Koele Schmidt, Lindsey; Jang, Brian; Barbour, Linda A.; Jansson, Thomas; Powell, Theresa L. (Elsevier, 2017)
      Use of glyburide in gestational diabetes (GDM) has raised concerns about fetal and neonatal side effects, including increased birth weight. Placental nutrient transport is a key determinant of fetal growth, however the ...
    • NLRP3 inflammasome: potential role in obesity related low-grade inflammation and insulin resistance in ... 
      Jorquera, Gonzalo; Russell, Javier; Monsalves Álvarez, Matías; Cruz, Gonzalo; Valladares-Ide, Denisse; Basualto Alarcón, Carla Edith; Barrientos, Genaro; Estrada, Manuel; Llanos, Paola (MDPI, 2021)
      Among multiple mechanisms, low-grade inflammation is critical for the development of insulin resistance as a feature of type 2 diabetes. The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family (NOD-like) pyrin ...
    • Testosterone activates glucose metabolism through AMPK and androgen signaling in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy 
      Troncoso Magñin, Mayarling Francisca; Pavez Giani, Mario Gustavo; Wilson Rodríguez, Carlos Antonio; Lagos Cerón, Daniel Alejandro; Durán Gárate, Javier Andre; Ramos, Sebastián; Barrientos Briones, Genaro Christian; Silva, Patricio; Llanos Vidal, Paola Andrea; Basualto Alarcón, Carla Edith; Westenbrink, B. Daan; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Estrada Hormazábal, Manuel Iván (BMC, 2021)
      Background Testosterone regulates nutrient and energy balance to maintain protein synthesis and metabolism in cardiomyocytes, but supraphysiological concentrations induce cardiac hypertrophy. Previously, we determined that ...
