Effects of pomace olive oil-enriched diets on endothelial function of small mesenteric arteries from spontaneously hypertensive rats
(Cambridge University Press, 2009-11)
Pomace olive oil (POM), an olive oil subproduct traditionally used in Spain, is a good source of minor components from the unsaponifiable fraction such as triterpenoids, mainly in the form of oleanolic ...
MMPs/TIMPs and inflammatory signalling de‐regulation in human incisional hernia tissues
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009-03-04)
Incisional hernia is a common and important complication of laparotomies. Epidemiological studies allude to an underlying biological cause, at least in a subset of population. Interest has mainly focused ...
Matriptase-2 mutations in iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia patients provide new insights into protease activation mechanisms
(Oxford University Press, 2009)
Mutations leading to abrogation of matriptase-2 proteolytic activity in humans are associated with an iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia (IRIDA) due to elevated hepcidin levels. Here we describe two ...
Bone morphogenetic protein-6 promotes cerebellar granule neurons survival by activation of the MEK/ERK/CREB pathway
(Molecular biology of the cell, 2009-12-15)
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have been implicated in the generation and postnatal differentiation of cerebellar granule cells (CGCs). Here, we examined the eventual role of BMPs on the survival ...
