PKCε Is Required for KRAS-Driven Lung Tumorigenesis
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2020-12)
Non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most frequent subtype of lung cancer and remains a highly lethal malignancy and one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Mutant KRAS is the prevailing oncogenic ...
Ubiquitin-proteasome signaling in lung injury
(Elsevier Science Inc., 2018-08)
Cell homeostasis requires precise coordination of cellular proteins function. Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification that modulates protein half-life and function and is tightly regulated by ubiquitin E3 ligases ...
Requirement for epithelial p38α in KRAS-driven lung tumor progression
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-02)
Malignant transformation entails important changes in the control of cell proliferation through the rewiring of selected signaling pathways. Cancer cells then become very dependent on the proper function of those pathways, ...
Association with amino acids does not enhance efficacy of polymerized liposomes as a system for lung gene delivery
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2016-04)
Development of improved drug and gene delivery systems directly into the lungs is highly desirable given the important burden of respiratory diseases. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of liposomes composed of ...
Neutron autoradiography to study the microdistribution of boron in the lung
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-11)
In Argentina, a multi-institutional project has been established to assess the feasibility of applying BNCT ex-situ to the treatment of patients with multiple metastases in both lungs. Within this context, this work aims ...
Linear ubiquitin assembly complex regulates lung epithelial–driven responses during influenza infection
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2019-11-12)
Influenza A virus (IAV) is among the most common causes of pneumonia-related death worldwide. Pulmonary epithelial cells are the primary target for viral infection and replication and respond by releasing inflammatory ...
Hazardous effects of urban air particulate matter acute exposure on lung and extrapulmonary organs in mice
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020-03)
Air particulate matter (PM) can lead to extrapulmonary adverse reactions in organs such as liver and heart either by particle translocation from the lung to the systemic circulation or by the release of lung mediators. ...
