Use of Lithobates catesbeianus tadpoles in a multiple biomarker approach for the assessment of water quality of the Reconquista River (Argentina)
(Springer, 2013-10)
The water quality of the Reconquista River (Argentina) water was monitored between 2009 and 2010 by means of a multiparametric approach. This periurban river is affected by agricultural, urban, and industrial discharges. ...
Serum Proteomic Signature of Human Chagasic Patients for the Identification of Novel Potential Protein Biomarkers of Disease
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2012-04)
Chagas disease is initiated upon infection by Trypanosoma cruzi. Among the health consequences is a decline in heart function, and the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this manifestation are not well understood. ...
Renal expression and urinary excretion of Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter 1 (NaDC1) in obstructive nephropathy: a candidate biomarker for this pathology
(Springer, 2018-12)
Obstructive nephropathy is characterized by alterations in renal function that depends on the degree and type of obstruction. To increase the knowledge about the physiopathological mechanisms involved in the renal damage ...
Organic Anion Transporter 5 (Oat5) Urinary Excretion Is a Specific Biomarker of Kidney Injury: Evaluation of Urinary Excretion of Exosomal Oat5 after N-Acetylcysteine Prevention of Cisplatin Induced Nephrotoxicity
(American Chemical Society, 2015-07)
Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent. Its main side-effect is nephrotoxicity. It was reported that the organic anion transporter 5 (Oat5) urinary excretion is elevated, implying renal perturbation, when no ...
Responses of biomarkers of a standardized (Cyprinus carpio) and a native (Pimelodella laticeps) fish species after in situ exposure in a periurban zone of Luján river (Argentina)
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2012-05)
The Luján River basin, which is located in the northwest area of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, receives different anthropogenic inputs before reaching the Río de la Plata estuary. The aim of this study was to ...
Biomarkers of environmental stress in gills of ribbed mussel Aulacomya atra atra (Nuevo Gulf, Northern Patagonia)
(Elsevier Inc, 2014-06-11)
In this study, we assessed in gills of native ribbed mussels Aulacomya atra atra from three sites within Nuevo Gulf (Northern Patagonia) several biomarkers such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid radicals (LR), ...
Time evolution of methotrexate-induced kidney injury: A comparative study between different biomarkers of renal damage in rats
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-06)
Methotrexate (MTX) is commonly used in the treatment of malignant diseases and autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disorders. Along with its effective therapeutic power, MTX has adverse effects on the kidneys. Discovery ...
Crab carapace shape as a biomarker of salt marsh metals pollution
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-08)
Coastal environmental pollution is a global problem that has been growing for decades. For this reason, different approaches have been sought to address and detect its environmental implications. Some organisms are considered ...
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons levels and potential biomarkers in a native South American marine fish
(Elsevier, 2019-05-29)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) cause adverse effects on ecosystems and organisms from aquatic environments due to their toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation characteristics. Furthermore, PAH exposure in fish ...
Assessment of metal exposure (uranium and copper) by the response of a set of integrated biomarkers in a stream shredder
(Elsevier Science, 2018-12)
Environmental pollution with toxic trace metals is of great concern for the environment and for public health. Here we assess the response of the shredder caddisfly Calamoceras marsupus to sub-lethal exposures to copper ...
