    • A rapid and strong apoptotic process is triggered by hyperosmotic stress in cultured rat cardiac myocytes 
      Gálvez, Anita; Morales, María Paz; Eltit Ortega, José Miguel; Ocaranza, María Paz; Carrasco Alarcón, Loreto del Pilar; Campos Bastidas, Ximena; Sapag Hagar, Mario; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Lavandero González, Sergio (SPRINGER-VERLAG, 2001-05)
      In all cell types, the maintenance of normal cell volume is an essential homeostatic function. Relatively little is known about the induction of apoptosis by hyperosmotic stress and its molecular mechanism in terminally ...
    • Sistemas de transducción de señales en la hipertrofia cardíaca 
      Carrasco Alarcón, Loreto del Pilar; Chiong Lay, Mario; Ibarra Iribarren, Cristián; Campos Bastidas, Ximena; Tello, Mario; Sapag Hagar, Mario; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Lavandero González, Sergio (Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2001)
      Los cardiomiocitos son células terminalmente diferenciadas que cesan de dividirse inmediatamentre despúes del nacimiento. Esto hace del corazón un órgano muy vulnerable a eventos isquémicos, tóxicos e inflamatorios. La ...
    • The transcription factor MEF2C mediates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by IGF-1 signaling 
      Muñoz, Juan Pablo; Collao, Andrés; Chiong Lay, Mario; Maldonado Vera, Carola Patricia; Adasme, Tatiana; Carrasco Alarcón, Loreto del Pilar; Ocaranza Osses, Paula; Bravo Méndez, Roberto; González, Leticia; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Hidalgo Tapia, María Cecilia; Lavandero González, Sergio (ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2009-10-09)
      Myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) plays an important role in cardiovascular development and is a key transcription factor for cardiac hypertrophy. Here, we describe MEF2C regulation by insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) ...
