Stem cells and COVID-19: are the human amniotic cells a new hope for therapies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus?
(Springer, 2021-03)
A new coronavirus respiratory disease (COVID-19) caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, surprised the entire world, producing social, economic, and health problems. The COVID-19 triggers a lung infection with a multiple proinflammatory ...
Targeting glioblastoma stem cells: The first step of photodynamic therapy
(Elsevier Science, 2021-12)
Glioblastoma is one of the most malignant types of brain cancer. Evidence suggests that within gliomas there is a small subpopulation of cells with the capacity for self-renewal, called glioma stem cells. These cells could ...

Combined chemotherapy and ALA-based photodynamic therapy in leukemic murine cells
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012-09)
The effects of combined administration of doxorubicin (DOX) and vincristine (VCR), with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic treatment (ALA-PDT), were analyzed in sensitive murine leukemic cell lines (LBR-) and DOX and VCR ...
Light and Shadows in cardiac regeneration.
(Sociedad Argentina de Fisiología, 2019-05)
Given that the adult human heart has an extremely limited regenerative capacity, diseases characterized by contractile cell loss, as myocardial infarction and cardiomyopathies, lead to ventricular remodeling and heart ...

Editorial: Modulating glial cells phenotype. New findings and therapies
(Frontiers Media, 2020-09-23)
Aging and neurodegenerative diseases are closely related, and the common point between both scenarios is neuroinflammation. Neuroinflammation is mainly mediated by glial cells, astrocytes, and microglia; while endothelial ...
Heat shock protein 27 modulates autophagy and promotes cell survival after photodynamic therapy
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-02)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a clinically approved treatment that exerts a selective cytotoxic activity toward cancer cells. The procedure involves the administration of a photosensitizer drug followed by its activation ...
