    • Glucocorticoid resistance in chronic diseases 
      Rodriguez, Juan; Monsalves Álvarez, Matías; Henriquez, Sandra; Llanos Silva, Miguel; Troncoso Cotal, Rodrigo (Elsevier Science, 2016-11)
      Glucocorticoids are involved in several responses triggered by a variety of environmental and physiological stimuli. These hormones have a wide-range of regulatory effects in organisms. Synthetic glucocorticoids are ...
    • Glucose Promotes a Pro-Oxidant and Pro-Inflammatory Stromal Microenvironment Which Favors Motile Properties ... 
      Kallens, Violeta; Tobar Bachler, Nicolás; Molina, Jessica; Bidegain, Arantzazú; Smith, Patricio C.; Porras Espinoza, Omar; Martínez, Jorge (Wiley, 2017)
      Chronic inflammation and metabolic reprogramming have been proposed as hallmarks of cancer development. Currently, many of the functional clues between these two phenomena are studied under the integrative view of functional ...
    • Glycemic Control and Oxidative Stress Markers and their relationship with the Thioredoxin Interacting Protein ... 
      Andrews Guzmán, Mónica; Arredondo Olguín, Miguel Armando; Olivares Gronhert, Manuel (Aula Médica Ediciones, 2015)
      Objective: To investigate the relationship between oxidative stress and biochemical parameters and the expression of TXNIP, IL-6, IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha in peripheral mononuclear cells (PMCs) from type-2 diabetic patients. ...
