In vivo tissue specific modulation of rat insulin receptor gene expression in an experimental model of mineralocorticoid excess
(Springer Nature Link, 1998)Insulin receptor (IR) gene expression at the mRNA level was investigated in hindlimb skeletal muscle, epididymal adipose tissue and in the liver of rats exposed to prolonged in vivo administration of deoxycorticosterone ... -
Aldosterone impairs insulin responsiveness in U-937 human promonocytic cells via the downregulation of its own receptor
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2002)n an earlier study, we have reported an inhibition of insulin receptor (IR) mRNA levels and insulin binding by aldosterone in U-937 human promonocytic cells. In the present extension of our studies, we demonstrate that ... -
Consumer perception and physicochemical characterization of a new product made from lactic acid fermented orange peels
(Elsevier, 2023)A new product made from orange peels discarded from juice making has been characterized during the present study. In order to reduce its bitterness, orange peel was fermented during 10 days in two different sugary brines ... -
Active damping control strategy to avoid resonance issues in diesel-electric vessels with DC distribution systems
(IEEE, 2016)This paper presents an active damping control strategy especially designed to mitigate the effects of the resonances of low damped power electronic based DC distribution systems. In those systems, some controlled converters ... -
Diet and Microbiota in the Elderly
(Elsevier, 2022)Minimizing the age-associated physiological decline and comorbidities represents a major scientific challenge for the next decades. The importance of diet for maintaining health along aging is well recognized. Recently the ... -
A multivariable modeling approach for the design of Power Electronics Based DC Distribution Systems in diesel-electric vessels
(IEEE, 2016)The benefits of using Power Electronics Based DC Distribution Systems in diesel-electric vessels are well known. However, some aspects must be deeply analyzed to guarantee a safe, robust and stable system by design. A ... -
The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics' resources: focus on curated databases
(Oxford academic, 2015)The SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (www.isb-sib.ch) provides world-class bioinformatics databases, software tools, services and training to the international life science community in academia and industry. These ... -
Vitamin C Supplementation Influences Body Fat Mass and Steroidogenesis-Related Genes when Fed a High-Fat Diet
(Hogrefe AG, 2008)An enhanced oxidative stress status has been documented in obese patients and animal models, and a depletion of the antioxidant mechanisms in these conditions is a common feature. Therefore, we have tested the hypothesis ... -
Inhibition by aldosterone of insulin receptor mRNA levels and insulin binding in U-937 human promonocytic cells
(Elsevier, 1999)The effect of aldosterone on insulin receptor (IR) expression was investigated in U-937 human promonocytic cells. The putative involvement of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) was also analysed. Aldosterone binding assays ... -
Cross-talk between glucocorticoid and retinoic acid signals involving glucocorticoid receptor interaction with the homoeodomain protein Pbx1 Available to Purchase
(Biochemical society, 2003)Glucocorticoid (GC) signalling influences the response of the cell to a number of other signals via a mechanism referred to as ‘cross-talk'. This cross-talk may act at several levels, including an interaction between the ... -
El modelo educativo de Antzuola: Una experiencia de renovación pedagógica
(Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 2026-06-16)En este documento se da cuenta del trabajo de investigación desarrollado por los autores, en su intento por desvelar el trasfondo pedagógico de una realidad educativa global, la escuela pública de Antzuola (Guipúzcoa, ... -
Student engagement and creative confidence beliefs in higher education
(Elsevier, 2021)The fostering of creativity in higher education has been linked to enhanced professional competences and personal development among students. The main aim of this study was to examine the relationship between student ... -
Adiposity dependent apelin gene expression: relationships with oxidative and inflammation markers
(Springer Nature Link, 2007)It has been reported that apelin functions as an adipokine, which has been associated to obesity and insulin resistance. The objective of this study was to analyze the apelin mRNA expression in white adipose tissue ... -
Diferential gene expression and adiposity reduction induced by ascorbic acid supplementation in a cafeteria model of obesity
(Springer Nature Link, 2006)Obesity is considered as an inflammatory disease, in which free radical-induced oxidative stress and excessive intake of macronutrients exacerbate their symptoms. In this context, we assessed in rats the possible preventive ... -
Ketoconazole, an Antifungal Agent, Protects Against Adiposity Induced by a Cafeteria Diet
(2004)Ketoconazole, an anti-glucocorticoid agent, is widely used in humans as an antifungal agent. It inhibits ergosterol synthesis and reduces cortisol levels in the treatment of Cushing’s Syndrome. The aim of this work was to ... -
Preliminary report on the allelopathic potential of South American Imperata species (Poaceae: Andropogoneae)
(Sociedad botánica de Mexico, 2023)Background: A significant number of species of grasses (Poaceae) have allelopathic properties and two genera of Andropogoneae -Cymbopogon and Bothriochloa- are the main aromatic genera recognized in the family. The genus ... -
Tissue-specific modulation of insulin receptor mRNA levels in adrenaline-treated rats
(Springer Nature Link, 1997-04)Insulin receptor (IR) gene expression at the mRNA level was investigated in liver, hindlimb skeletal muscle, and epididymal adipose tissue of rats exposed to prolonged in vivo administration of adrenaline in relation to ... -
Effect of Farnesol and Octenol on Mycelium Differentiation
(MDPI, 2026)Hyphal systems have been essential for the morphoanatomical characterization of basidiomes and mycelia of aphyllophoroid fungi for taxonomic purposes. They have also been shown to influence the consistency of basidiomes. ... -
Rediscovery of the Patagonian mushroom Austroomphaliaster nahuelbutensis 41 years after the type collection
(Fundación Miguel Lillo, 2025)Erected by Garrido in 1988, the genus Austroomphaliaster contains a single species, A. nahuelbutensis, which has not been cited again since its original description. Despite numerous expeditions across the Nothofagus ... -
Hannibal ad portas: prediciendo la distribución potencial del hongo exótico degradador de madera Coniophora olivacea, nuevo en Patagonia
(Fundación Miguel Lillo, 2023)Coniophora olivacea has been traditionally considered as an important decay agent of building timbers of broadleaf and conifer woods, and causes significant damage on doors, window frames and other wood structures exposed ...
