Objetivos: Evaluar inmunohistoquímicamente la asociación entre la presencia de fibroblastos asociados a cáncer (FACs) y la expresión tumoral de podoplanina (PDPN) en carcinoma de células escamosas de cabeza y cuello (CCEC&C) y su asociación con variables clinicopatológicas. Materiales y métodos:...

Objectives: To immunohistochemically evaluate the association between the presence of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and the tumour expression of podoplanin (PDPN) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and their association with clinicopathological variables. Material and Meth...

Los fibroblastos cardiacos (CF) son células claves en la mantención de la matriz extracelular (MEC), homeostasis del tejido cardiaco y también en la reparación tisular a través de la diferenciación a miofibroblasto (MFC). Además, los FC cumplen un rol centinela, siendo capaces de responder...

Cardiac fibroblasts (CF) are a key cell for maintaining extracellular matrix (ECM), protein homeostasis in heart tissue and also for cardiac repair through CF-to cardiac myofibroblast (CMF) differentiation. Moreover, CF play a sentinel role in response to mechanical and chemical stimuli by releas...

In Australia, public housing estates are associated with disadvantage, exclusion, stigma and social disorder. Many and the most vulnerable of those who enter Australia under the Humanitarian Programme settle in public housing estates. However, while these places are culturally diverse, there is a...

Se evaluó el efecto protector de un extracto polifenólico de palta rico en proantocianidinas sobre las alteraciones de la homeostasia colónica y la composición de la microbiota intestinal inducidas por una dieta hiperproteica en un biorreactor con microbiota fecal humana y en ratas. El extracto p...

This work evaluates the protective effect of an avocado polyphenolic extract rich in proanthocyanidins on the alterations in the colonic homeostasis and the composition of the intestinal microbiota induced by a high protein diet in a bioreactor with human fecal microbiota and in rats. It was foun...

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Although the incidence of this disease has decreased thanks to the implementation of screening mammograms and application of adjuvant therapies, this decrease does not seem to be enough, since the development of metastasis is s...
