Expression of Melatonin and Dopamine D3 Receptor Heteromers in Eye Ciliary Body Epithelial Cells and Negative Correlation with Ocular Hypertension
Background: Experiments in the late nineties showed an inverse relationship in the eye levels of melatonin and dopamine, thereby constituting an example of eye parameters that are prone to circadian variations. The underlying ...
Counter-ion effect on surfactant-DNA gel particles as controlled DNA delivery systems
The ability to entrap drugs within vehicles and subsequently release them has led to new treatments for a number of diseases. Based on an associative phase separation and interfacial diffusion approach, we developed a way ...

Characterization of the Use of Emergency Contraception from Sentinel Pharmacies in a Region of Southern Europe
Numerous studies have been published suggesting that emergency contraception (EC) is used repeatedly, but a lack of information regarding the profile of users makes it difficult to evaluate actual consumer habits. The aim ...
Assessment of the potential skin irritation of lysine-derivative anionic surfactants using mouse fibroblast and human keratinocytes as an alternative to animal testing
Purpose. The aim of this study was to identify new surfactants with low skin irritant properties for use in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations, employing cell culture as an alternative method to in vivo testing. In ...
The human apolipoprotein AV gene is regulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha and contains a novel farnesoid X-activated receptor response element
The newly identified apolipoprotein AV (apoAV) gene is a key player in determining plasma triglyceride concentrations. Because hypertriglyceridemia is a major independent risk factor in coronary artery disease, the ...
Sleep and circadian rhythm alterations in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Post-COVID-19 syndrome and its association with cardiovascular risk factors: a prospective cohort study
This study aimed to investigate circadian rhythm manifestations in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) patients (including a subpopulation of long-COVID patients) and healthy controls, while also ...
Polypurine reverse-Hoogsteen (PPRH) oligonucleotides can form triplexes with their target sequences even under conditions where they fold into G-quadruplexes
Polypurine reverse-Hoogsteen (PPRH) oligonucleotides are non-modified DNA molecules composed of two mirror-symmetrical polypurine stretches linked by a five-thymidine loop. They can fold into reverse-Hoogsteen hairpins and ...
PolyPurine Reverse Hoogsteen Hairpins Work as RNA Species for Gene Silencing
PolyPurine Reverse Hoogsteen Hairpins (PPRHs) are gene-silencing DNA-oligonucleotides developed in our laboratory that are formed by two antiparallel polypurine mirror repeat domains bound intramolecularly by Hoogsteen ...
Membrane vesicles from the probiotic Nissle 1917 and gut resident Escherichia coli strains distinctly modulate human dendritic cells and subsequent T cell responses
Extracellular membrane vesicles (MVs) released by gut microbiota are key players in the communication with the host. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunomodulatory properties of MVs from the probiotic E. coli ...
Flavonoids affect host-microbiota crosstalk through TLR modulation
Interaction between host cells and microbes is known as crosstalk. Among other mechanisms, this takes place when certain molecules of the micro-organisms are recognized by the toll-like receptors (TLRs) in the body cells, ...
Actividades para promover la gestión crítica de la información de Internet aplicadas a estudiantes de farmacia
Con el fin de promover la adquisición de habilidades y destrezas que permitan al estudiante de Farmacia desarrollar una actitud activa y crítica frente a la información disponible en Internet, así como saber seleccionar ...

A transcriptomic approach to study the effect of long-term starvation and diet composition on the expression of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation genes in gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata)
Background: The impact of nutritional status and diet composition on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in fish remains largely unknown. To identify biomarkers of interest in nutritional studies, herein we ...
