Obesity impairs leukocyte‐endothelium cell interactions and oxidative stress in humans
2018
Background:To evaluate the relationship between leukocyte‐endothelial cellinteractions and oxidative stress parameters in non‐diabetic patients with differentgrades of obesity.Material and methods:For this cross‐sectional study, 225 subjects wererecruited from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016 and divided into groupsaccording to BMI (40 kg/m²). We determined clin-ical parameters, systemic inflammatory markers, soluble cellular adhesion mole-cules, leukocyte‐endothelium cell interactions—rolling flux, velocity and adhesion—, oxidative stress parameters—total ROS, total superoxide, glutathione—andmitochondrial membrane potential in leukocytes.Results:We verified that HOMA‐IR and hsCRP incr…

Characterization of cells with different mitochondrial membrane potential during apoptosis.
2005
Background Until now, the simultaneous analysis of several parameters during apoptosis, including DNA content and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ), has not been possible because of the spectral characteristics of the commonly used dyes. Using polychromatic flow cytometry based upon multiple laser and UV lamp excitation, we have characterized cells with different ΔΨ during apoptosis. Methods U937 cells were treated with the flavonoid quercetin (Qu) and stained with JC-1 to detect ΔΨ, propidium iodide (PI) for cell viability, Hoechst 33342 for DNA content, Annexin V conjugated with Alexa Fluor-647 for detection of phosphatidilserine (PS) exposure, marker of early apoptosis, or Mitotracke…
In vitro evaluation of toxic effects, bioavailability and bioaccesibility of beauvericin, enniatins and fusaproliferin = Evaluación in vitro de los e…
2013
Los hongos de Fusarium pueden producir micotoxinas hexadepsipeptidicas, como beauvericina (BEA) y eniatinas (ENs) e isoprenoides como la fusaproliferina (FUS), las cuales se encuentran de forma natural en los alimentos y piensos. En las últimas décadas se han publicado datos, aunque escasos, sobre su toxicidad potencial en humanos y animales. Los objectivos de esta tesis fueron evaluar: los efectos citotóxicos de las FUS, BEA y ENs A, A1, B y B1 en células Caco-2, CHO-K1 y HT-29; los efectos citotóxicos de las ENs combinadas, la generación de especies reactivas de oxígeno (ROS) y la producción de peroxidación lipídica (LPO) tras exposición a FUS, BEA y ENs en las células Caco-2; la citoprot…
