    • A performance/cost evaluation for a GPU-based drug discovery application on volunteer computing 
      Guerrero, Ginés D.; Imbernón, Baldomero; Pérez-Sánchez, Horacio; Sanz, Francisco; García, José M.; Cecilia, José M. (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014)
      Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary research field that develops tools for the analysis of large biological databases, and, thus, the use of high performance computing (HPC) platforms is mandatory for the generation of ...
    • Developmental Programming of Capuchin Monkey Adrenal Dysfunction by Gestational Chronodisruption 
      Richter, Hans G.; Mendez, Natalia; Abarzúa Catalán, Lorena; Valenzuela, Guillermo J.; Serón Ferré, María; Torres Farfán, Claudia (Hindawi Limited, 2018)
      © 2018 Hans G. Richter et al. In the capuchin monkey (Cebus apella), a new-world nonhuman primate, maternal exposure to constant light during last third of gestation induces precocious maturation of the fetal adrenal and ...
    • Effect of supplementation with an iron-fortified milk on incidence of diarrhea and respiratory infection ... 
      Heresi, Gloria; Pizarro Aguirre, Fernando; Olivares, Manuel; Cayazzo, Marisol; Hertrampf, Eva; Walter, Tomas; Murphy, James R.; Stekel, Abraham (Informa Healthcare, 1995)
      To address the hypothesis that increased infectious morbidity is associated with iron supplementation, 783 randomly selected infants were provided with a powdered full fat cow's milk (non-fortified group). and 872 with a ...
    • Innate immunity modulation by the IL-33/ST2 system in intestinal mucosa 
      García-Miguel, Marina; González, M. Julieta; Quera, Rodrigo; Hermoso, Marcela A. (2013)
      Innate immunity prevents pathogens from entering and spreading within the body. This function is especially important in the gastrointestinal tract and skin, as these organs have a large surface contact area with the outside ...
    • Participation of integrin α 5 β 1 in the fibronectin-mediated adherence of enteroaggregative Escherichia ... 
      Izquierdo, Mariana; Alvestegui, Alejandra; Nataro, James P.; Ruiz-Perez, Fernando; Farfan, Mauricio J. (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014)
      © 2014 Mariana Izquierdo et al. Adherence to the intestinal epithelia is a key feature in enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) infection. The aggregative adherence fimbriae (AAFs) are involved in EAEC interaction with ...
    • Preparing an English course for students of science 
      Ewer, J. R.; Latorre, G. (1967)
    • Programming of fetal insulin resistance in pregnancies with maternal obesity by ER stress and inflammation 
      Westermeier, Francisco; Sáez, Pablo J.; Villalobos-Labra, Roberto; Sobrevia, Luis; Farías-Jofré, Marcelo (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014)
      The global epidemics of obesity during pregnancy and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) are major public health problems worldwide. Obesity and excessive GWG are related to several maternal and fetal complications, ...
    • RESETing ER proteostasis: Selective stress pathway hidden in the secretory route 
      Couve Correa, Andrés; Hetz Flores, Claudio (Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2014)
      The efficient folding of membrane and secreted proteins relies on the unfolded protein response (UPR) to buffer fluctuations in the load of misfolded proteins. Although the UPR is thought to operate on a generic manner ...
    • Tumor Suppression and Promotion by Autophagy 
      Ávalos, Yenniffer; Canales, Jimena; Bravo Sagua, Roberto; Criollo Céspedes, Alfredo; Lavandero González, Sergio; Quest, Andrew F. G. (Hindawi, 2014)
      Autophagy is a highly regulated catabolic process that involves lysosomal degradation of proteins and organelles, mostly mitochondria, for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and reduction of metabolic stress. Problems ...
