Transregulation of microRNA miR-21 promoter by AP-1 transcription factor in cervical cancer cells.
(Cancer Cell International, 2019-01)
Gene expression profiles have demonstrated that miR-21 expression is altered in almost all types of cancers and it has been classified as an oncogenic microRNA. Persistent HPV infection is the main etiologic agent in ...
La leptina promueve la expresión de Hic-5 y la formación de puntos de actina por la vía dependiente de FAK-Src en células epiteliales mamarias MCF10A.
(Biomédica, 2019-01-01)
Leptin is a hormone secreted by adipocytes that has been associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Additionally, leptin promotes the migration and invasion of mammary epithelial cells through the activation ...
New insights into radioresistance in breast cancer identify a dual function of miR-122 as a tumor suppressor and oncomiR.
(FebsPress, 2019-04-18)
Radioresistance of tumor cells gives rise to local recurrence and disease progression in many patients. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are master regulators of gene expression that control oncogenic pathways to modulate the radiotherapy ...
Relationship of Excess Weight with Clinical Activity and Dietary Intake Deficiencies in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients.
(2019-11-06)
Obesity and nutrients intake deficiencies may contribute to the clinical manifestations and inflammatory processes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between nutritional ...
Multiple infections by EBV, HCMV and Helicobacter pylori are highly frequent in patients with chronic gastritis and gastric cancer from Southwest Mexico.
(Medicine, 2019-12)
The chronic inflammation and damage to the gastric epithelium induced by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) are the main risk factors for gastric cancer development. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) ...
CagL polymorphisms D58/K59 are predominant in Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from Mexican patients with chronic gastritis.
(Gut Pathogens, 2019-02-13)
Helicobacter pylori is a Gram¿negative bacterium that colonizes the gastric mucosa in humans. One of the main virulence factors of H. pylori is the cag pathogenicity island (cagPAI), which encodes a type 4¿secretion system ...
Cervical cancer stem cell-associated genes: Prognostic implications in cervical cancer (Review).
(Oncology Letters, 2019-03-18)
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common type of gynecological malignancy to affect females, worldwide. Although high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is the primary etiologic agent associated with the development ...
Elevated Blood Lead Levels in Children Associated with Living near Mining Waste Sites in Guerrero/Mexico
(Environments, 2017-06-12)
Blood lead levels (BLL) in children are associated with lead in soil and represent a major public health problem; however, there are few reports of lead contamination related to mining waste sites in Mexico. Therefore, we ...
Isolation and screening of bacteria from Zea mays plant growth promoters
(Revista Internacional de Contaminación Ambiental, 2016-08)
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria is a beneficial microbe colonizing plant roots, which enhances crop productivity and offers an attractive way to replace chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and supplements. In Mexico, ...
Evaluation of polyhydroxyalkanoates producing bacteria isolated from soils with wastes of Cocos nucifera
(Revista Internacional de Contaminación Ambiental, 2016-07)
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyesters produced and accumulated in prokary-otes as carbon and energy storage materials. These polymers can be used to produce biodegradable plastics. Actually, the industrial production ...
