Dorsoventral Arrangement of Lateral Hypothalamus Populations in the Mouse Hypothalamus: a Prosomeric Genoarchitectonic Analysis
(Springer, 2023)The lateral hypothalamus (LH) has a heterogeneous cytoarchitectonic organization that has not been elucidated in detail. In this work, we analyzed within the framework of the prosomeric model the diferential expression ... -
The caveolae‐associated coiled‐coil protein, NECC2, regulates insulin signalling in Adipocytes
(Wiley Open Access, 2018-08)Adipocyte dysfunction in obesity is commonly associated with impaired insulin signalling in adipocytes and insulin resistance. Insulin signalling has been associated with caveolae, which are coated by large complexes of ... -
Assessment of Genotoxicity Induced by Subchronic Exposure to Graphene in HaCaT Human Skin Cell Line
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)The applications of graphene-based materials (GBMs) and even their processing involve prolonged contact with cellular barriers such as human skin. Even though the potential cytotoxicity of graphene has been studied in ... -

(ADHUC—Centre de Recerca Teoria, Gènere, Sexualitat (Universitat de Barcelona), 2022-04)A principios del siglo XX, en un contexto de creciente erotización de la cultura, los espectáculos teatrales asistieron a los primeros desnudos femeninos. En el presente ensayo se analiza el papel del cuerpo de la mujer ... -
Aberrations of Genomic Imprinting in Glioblastoma Formation
(Frontiers, 2021)In human glioblastoma (GBM), the presence of a small population of cells with stem cell characteristics, the glioma stem cells (GSCs), has been described. These cells have GBM potential and are responsible for the origin ... -
Pan-BCL2 family inhibitor obatoclax as treatment for parental and cisplatin-resistant triple negative breast cancer
(European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer, 2020)Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an incurable disease where novel therapeutic strategies are needed. Nowadays, only chemotherapy and radi otherapy are standard treatments for TNBC. Cancer stem cells population (CSCs) ... -
Neurodegeneration and astrogliosis in the entorhinal cortex in Alzheimer’s disease: Stereological layer-specific assessment and proteomic analysis
(Wiley, 2022-02)Introduction: The entorhinal cortex is among the earliest areas involved in Alzheimer’s disease. Volume reduction and neural loss in this area have been widely reported. Human entorhinal cortex atrophy is, in part, due ... -
Laparoscopic versus laparotomy approach to endometrial cancer: A prospective study
(Publicación de investigación científica, 2013-06)Objective: The aim of this study was to compare laparoscopic (LPS) and laparotomy (LPT) approaches for endometrial cancer, and to assess intraoperative and postoperative results, disease-free survival and overall survival. ... -
Effect of COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns on planned cancer surgery for 15 tumour types in 61 countries: an international, prospective, cohort study
(Elsevier, 2021-11)This international, prospective, cohort study enrolled 20 006 adult (≥18 years) patients from 466 hospitals in 61 countries with 15 cancer types, who had a decision for curative surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic and ... -
Subchronic Graphene Exposure Reshapes Skin Cell Metabolism
(ACS, 2022-05)In recent years, the toxicity of graphene-related materials (GRMs) has been evaluated in diverse models to guarantee their safety. In most applications, sublethal doses of GRMs contact human barriers such as skin in a ... -
Importance of Lactic Acid in Maintaining Vaginal Health: A Review of Vaginitis and Vaginosis Etiopathogenic Bases and a Proposal for a New Treatment
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2014-08-29)The most frequent cause of visits to the gynecologist in the western world is vaginal discomfort (vaginitis and vaginosis) whose origin lies in the uncontrolled proliferation of bacteria, such as haemophilus vaginalis or ... -
