    • Metformin augments the levels of molecules that regulate the expression of the insulin-dependent glucose ... 
      Rosas, Carlos; Kohan Ivani, Karla; Gabler Neale, Fernando; Vantman Bretschneider, David; Romero Osses, Carmen; Vega Blanco, María Margarita; Carvajal Gavilán, Rodrigo (Oxford University Press, 2013)
      study question: Does treatment with the insulin sensitizer metformin modify the levels and activation of proteins related to the expression of the insulin-dependent glucose transporter (GLUT4), such as adenosine ...
    • Protein expression of PKCZ (Protein Kinase C Zeta), Munc18c, and Syntaxin-4 in the insulin pathway in ... 
      Rivero, Rodrigo; Garin, Claire-Alix; Ormazábal Leiva, Paulina Fernanda; Silva, Andrea; Gabler Neale, Fernando; Carvajal Gavilán, Rodrigo; Romero Osses, Carmen; Vega Blanco, María Margarita (2012)
      Background: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder commonly associated with insulin resistance (IR). Previous studies indicate about the expression of molecules involved in the insulin pathway in ...
    • Role of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on TGF‑β1 signaling pathway in epithelial ovarian cancer cells 
      Kohan Ivani, Karla; Gabler Neale, Fernando; Selman Abuchaibe, Alberto; Vega Blanco, María Margarita; Romero Osses, Carmen (Springer, 2016)
      Purpose One of the hypotheses regarding the genesis of epithelial ovarian cancer involves the action of androgens on the proliferation of epithelial ovarian cells, as well as inclusion cysts. The purpose of the present ...
    • Role of nerve growth factor and its TRKA receptor in normal ovarian and epithelial ovarian cancer angiogenesis 
      Vera Castillo, Carolina Andrea; Tapia Pinto, Verónica; Vega Blanco, María Margarita; Romero Osses, Carmen (BioMed Central, 2014)
      In normal ovarian function a controlled angiogenesis is essential. Several growth factors are involved in this process, such as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF). The angiogenesis ...
    • Tyrosine kinase A receptor (trkA): A potential marker in epithelial ovarian cancer 
      Tapia Pinto, Verónica; Gabler Neale, Fernando; Muñoz, Marcela; Yazigi, Roberto; Selman Abuchaibe, Alberto; Vega Blanco, María Margarita; Paredes Vargas, Alfonso; Romero Osses, Carmen (Elsevier, 2011)
      Objectives. To evaluate the role of trkA receptor as a potential tumor marker in serous epithelial ovarian cancer and its relationship with the angiogenic factors expression as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) ...
