Activation of zebrafish Src family kinases by the prion protein is an amyloid-beta-sensitive signal that prevents the endocytosis and degradation of
(Springer, 2016)
BACKGROUND: Prions and amyloid-beta (Abeta) oligomers trigger neurodegeneration by hijacking a poorly understood cellular signal mediated by the prion protein (PrP) at the plasma membrane. In early zebrafish embryos, ...
Heart metabolic disturbances in cardiovascular diseases.
(Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2003)
Macromolecular biosynthetic parameters and metabolic profile in different life stages of Leishmania braziliensis: Amastigotes as a functionally less active stage
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
It was recently hypothesized that Leishmania amastigotes could constitute a semi-quiescent stage characterized by low replication and reduced metabolic activity. This concept developed with Leishmania (Leishmania) mexicana ...
Nitric oxide and superoxide anion balance in rats exposed to chronic and long term intermittent hypoxia
(Hindawi, 2014)
Work at high altitude in shifts exposes humans to a new form of chronic intermittent hypoxia, with still unknown health consequences. We have established a rat model resembling this situation, which develops a milder form ...
New insights on the role of lipid metabolism in the metabolic reprogramming of macrophages
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Macrophage activation is intimately linked to metabolic reprogramming. Inflammatory (M1) macrophages are able to sustain inflammatory responses and to kill pathogens, mostly by relying on aerobic glycolysis and fatty acid ...
Reduced cancer mortality at high altitude: The role of glucose, lipids, iron and physical activity
(Elsevier, 2017)
Residency at high altitude (HA) demands adaptation to challenging environmental conditions with hypobaric hypoxia being the most important one. Epidemiological and experimental data suggest that chronic exposure to HA ...
