  • ADAM17 inhibition may exert a protective effect on COVID-19
    Palau González, Vanesa; Riera, Marta; Soler, María José (Oxford University Press, 2020)
  • Both specific endothelial and proximal tubular Adam17 deletion protect against diabetic nephropathy
    Palau González, Vanesa; Nugraha, Bramasta; Benito, David; Pascual Santos, Julio; Emmert, Maximilian Y.; Hoerstrup, Simon P.; Riera, Marta; Soler, María José (MDPI, 2021)
    ADAM17 is a disintegrin and metalloproteinase capable of cleaving the ectodomains of a diverse variety of molecules including TNF-α, TGF-α, L-selectin, and ACE2. We have previously demonstrated that renal ADAM17 is upregulated ...
  • Effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac structure and function in obese patients: role of the renin-angiotensin system
    Oliveras, Anna; Molina Ferragut, Luis; Goday Arno, Alberto; Sans Atxer, Laia; Riera, Marta; Vázquez, Susana; Benaiges Foix, David; Granados, Ana Marina; Ramon, Jose Manuel; Pascual Santos, Julio (Wiley, 2021)
    Echocardiographic alterations have been described in obesity, but their modifications after bariatric surgery (BS) and mechanisms are little known, mostly in normotensive patients. We aimed to analyze cardiac changes 1 ...
  • Improvement of arterial stiffness one month after bariatric surgery and potential mechanisms
    Oliveras, Anna; Galceran Herrera, Isabel; Goday Arno, Alberto; Vázquez, Susana; Sans Atxer, Laia; Riera, Marta; Benaiges Foix, David; Pascual, Julio (Pascual Santos) (MDPI, 2021)
    Arterial stiffness (AS) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk. We aimed to analyze changes (Δ) in AS 1-month post-bariatric surgery (BS) and search for possible pathophysiological mechanisms. Patients with ...
  • Phosphorylation of S6RP in peritubular capillaries of kidney grafts and circulating HLA donor-specific antibodies
    Raïch-Regué, Dàlia; Gimeno, Javier; Llinàs-Mallol, Laura; Menéndez, Silvia; Benito, David; Redondo, Dolores; Pérez-Sáez, María José; Riera, Marta; Reed, Elaine F.; Pascual Santos, Julio; Crespo Barrio, Marta (Frontiers, 2022)
    Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) caused by donor-specific HLA-antibodies (DSA) is a mediator of allograft loss after kidney transplantation (KT). DSA can activate microvascular endothelium damage through the mTOR pathway. ...
  • Role of C5aR1 and C5L2 receptors in ischemia-reperfusion injury
    Arias Cabrales, Carlos Enrique; Rodriguez García, Eva; Gimeno Beltran, Javier; Benito, David; Pérez-Saez, María José; Redondo Pachón, María Dolores; Buxeda, Anna; Burballa Tàrrega, Carla, 1988-; Crespo Barrio, Marta; Riera, Marta; Pascual Santos, Julio (MDPI, 2021)
    The role of C5a receptors (C5aR1 and C5L2) in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is uncertain. We generated an in vitro model of hypoxia/reoxygenation with human proximal tubule epithelial cells to mimic some IRI ...
  • SARS-CoV-2 infection modulates ACE2 function and subsequent inflammatory responses in swabs and plasma of COVID-19 patients
    Gutiérrez-Chamorro, Lucía; Riveira Muñoz, Eva; Barrios Barrera, Clara; Palau González, Vanesa; Nevot, Maria; Pedreño-López, Sònia; Senserrich, Jordi; Massanella Luna, Marta, 1983-; Clotet, Bonaventura; Cabrera, Cecilia; Mitjà, Oriol; Crespo Barrio, Marta; Pascual Santos, Julio; Riera, Marta; Ballana Guix, Ester (MDPI, 2021)
    Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a host ectopeptidase and the receptor for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, albeit virus-ACE2 interaction goes far beyond viral entry into target cells. Controversial data exists linking viral ...
  • The GenoDiabMar registry: A collaborative research platform of type 2 diabetes patients
    Sierra, Adriana; Otero, Sol; Rodríguez, Eva; Faura, Anna; Vera, María; Riera, Marta; Palau González, Vanesa; Duran Jordà, Xavier, 1974-; Costa-Garrido, Anna; Sans Atxer, Laia; Márquez, Eva; Poposki, Vladimir; Franch-Nadal, Josep; Mundet-Tudurí, Xavier; Oliveras, Anna; Crespo Barrio, Marta; Pascual Santos, Julio; Barrios Barrera, Clara (MDPI, 2022)
    The GenoDiabMar registry is a prospective study that aims to provide data on demographic, biochemical, and clinical changes in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients attending real medical outpatient consultations. This registry ...
