(IOAP-MPDI, 2018-09-06)The bioactive natural compound from marine origin, (+)-aeroplysinin-1, has been shown to exhibit potent anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic effects. The aim of the present study was to identify new targets for ... -
Allelic Variation of MYB10 is the Major Force Controlling Natural Variation of Skin and Flesh Color in Strawberry (Fragaria spp.) fruit
(2020-06-13)Anthocyanins are the principal color-producing compounds synthesized in developing fruits of strawberry (Fragaria spp.). Substantial natural variation in color have been observed in fruits of diploid and octoploid accessions, ... -
Ammonium regulates the development of pine roots through hormonal crosstalk and differential expression of transcription factors in the apex
(Wiley, 2021-11-01)Ammonium is a prominent source of inorganic nitrogen for plant nutrition, but excessive amounts can be toxic for many species. However, most conifers are tolerant to ammonium, a relevant physiological feature of this ancient ... -
An improved de novo assembling and polishing of Solea senegalensis transcriptome shed light on retinoic acid signalling in larvae
(Scientific Reports (Springer Nature), 2020)Senegalese sole is an economically important species in aquaculture and a model to decipher the severe transformations occurring during flatfish metamorphosis. A robust sole transcriptome was envisaged from a total of 96 ... -
An updated nomenclature for plant ribosomal protein genes
(American Society of Plant Biologists (ASPB), 2023-02-20)Proponemos a la comunidad que trabaja con plantas una nueva nomenclatura universal y homogénea para las proteínas ribosomales (y sus parálogos) -
Angioprevention of Urologic Cancers by Plant-Derived Foods.
(MDPI, 2022-01-21)The number of cancer cases worldwide keeps growing unstoppably, despite the undeniable advances achieved by basic research and clinical practice. Urologic tumors, including some as prevalent as prostate, bladder or kidney ... -
Anti-angiogenic effects of oleacein and oleocanthal: New bioactivities of compounds from Extra Virgin Olive Oil
(Elsevier, 2023-09)Phenolic compounds play a key role in the health benefits of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO). Among these molecules, the focus has been recently put on (−)-oleocanthal and (−)-oleacein, for which anti-cancer and angiogenesis-related ... -
Antioxidant responses related to temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma
(Elsevier, 2021)Glioblastoma remains one of the most challenging and devastating cancers, with only a very small proportion of patients achieving 5-year survival. The current standard of care consists of surgery, followed by radiation ... -
Antioxidant, Immunomodulatory and Potential Anticancer Capacity of Polysaccharides (Glucans) from Euglena gracilis G.A. Klebs
(IOAP-MDPI, 2022-11-10)The present study was carried out to determine the bioactivity of polysaccharides extracted from Euglena gracilis (EgPs). These were characterized by FT-IR and GC-MS. Cytotoxicity analyses (MTT) were performed on healthy ... -
Autophagy is required for strawberry fruit ripening
(Frontiers Media SA, 2021-08-27)Autophagy is a catabolic and recycling pathway that maintains cellular homeostasis under normal growth and stress conditions. Two major types of autophagy, microautophagy and macroautophagy, have been described in plants. ... -
Biomarker potential of repetitive-element transcriptome in lung cancer
(PeerJ, 2019)Since repetitive elements (REs) account for nearly 53% of the human genome, profiling its transcription after an oncogenic change might help in the search for new biomarkers. Lung cancer was selected as target since it is ... -
Bringing Light to Science Undergraduate Students: A Successful Laboratory Experiment Illustrating the Principles and Applications of Bioluminescence
(ACS Publications, 2021)Although many laboratory experiments are available to illustrate spectrophotometric or fluorometric methods, few of them introduce the use of luminometry to students. Bioluminescence, a subtype of chemiluminescence, ... -
Can a minimal replicating construct be identified as the embodiment of cancer?
(Wiley, 2014-04)Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer. Cancer cells that exhibit abnormal chromosomes are characteristic of most advanced tumours, despite the potential threat represented by accumulated genetic damage. Carcinogenesis ... -
Can cell mortality determine division of labor in tissue organization?
(Elsevier, 2014-06)Tissue organization comes from the emergence of cell cooperation where cell homeostasis and function are per- formed as a trade-off of two excluding proliferative and differentiated cellular states. By introducing function ... -
Characterization of the activity and the mechanism of action of a new toluquinol derivative with improved potential as an antiangiogenic drug.
(Elsevier, 2022-09-30)The inhibition of sustained angiogenesis is an attractive approach for the treatment of cancer, blindness and other angiogenesis-dependent diseases. Encouraged by our previous finding that toluquinol, a methyl hydroquinone ... -
Characterizing the involvement of FaMADS9 in the regulation of strawberry fruit receptacle development
(Wiley Online Library, 2019-09-18)FaMADS9 is the strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) gene that exhibits the highest homology to the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) RIN gene. Transgenic lines were obtained in which FaMADS9 was silenced. The fruits of these lines ... -
