Background: Statins may have therapeutic effects on hepatocarcinoma (HCC). This type of disorder is the most common malignant primary tumour in the liver. Our objective was to determine whether pravastatin had a therapeutic effect in vitro and in vivo models. Method: We design in vitro and in vivo model. In vitro we used PLC and determine cell proliferation. In vivo, we used and animal model to determined, PCNA and MAT1A expression and transaminases levels. Results: We found that pravastatin decreases cell proliferation in vitro (cell proliferation in pravastatin group was 82%, in sorafenib group 51% and in combined group 40%) and in vivo (in pravastatin group 80%, in sorafenib group 76.4% and in combined group 72.72%). The MAT1A levels, was significantly higher in Pravastatin group (D 62%, P 94%, S 71%, P + S 91%). The transaminases levels, decreased significantly in Pravastatin group (GOT and GPT levels D 619.5 U/L; 271 U/L) (P 117.5 U/L; 43.5 U/L) (S 147 U/L; 59 U/L) (P + S 142 U/L; 59 U/L). Conclusion: The combination of pravastatin + sorafenib were more effective than Sorafenib alone.

Folate-targeted poly[(p-nitrophenyl acrylate)-co-(N-isopropylacrylamide)] nanohydrogel (F-SubMG) was loaded with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to obtain low (16.3 +/- 1.9 mu g 5-FU/mg F-SubMG) and high (46.8 +/- 3.8 mu g 5-FU/mg F-SubMG) load 5-FU-loaded F-SubMGs. The complete in vitro drug release took place in 8 h. The cytotoxicity of unloaded F-SubMGs in MCF7 and HeLa cells was low; although it increased for high F-SubMG concentration. The administration of 10 mu M 5-FU by 5-FU-loaded F-SubMGs was effective on both cellular types. Cell uptake of F-SubMGs took place in both cell types, but it was higher in HeLa cells because they are folate receptor positive. After subcutaneous administration (28 mg 5-FU/kg b.w.) in Wistar rats, F-SubMGs were detected at the site of injection under the skin. Histological studies indicated that the F-SubMGs were surrounded by connective tissue, without any signs of rejections, even 60 days after injection. Pharmacokinetic study showed an increase in MRT (mean residence time) of 5-FU when the drug was administered by drug-loaded F-SubMGs.

INGLÉS:Juvenile mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) were collected and maintained under restrictive and optimal feeding conditions. After 7 months maintenance fast and slow growth individuals were selected for study of the effect of diet quality on selection efficiencies and absorption of food in fast and slow growth mussels. The objective of this experiment was to confirm that the physiological components responsible for the differentiation were able to vary according to the environmental conditions. The analysis of physiological traits indicates that under conditions of abundant food efficiency and absorption efficiences are the main factors that explain the differences in growth. Under conditions of restricted food are physiological differences that give rise to differences in growth.

Los mecanismos epigenéticos, entre los que está implicada la modificación covalente de histonas, son esenciales para el mantenimiento estable de la actividad génica en las células. Estos mecanismos también están implicados en la aparición de enfermedades como el cáncer colorrectal (CCR), siendo la metástasis hepática una de las formas más agresivas de la misma al producir una drástica disminución de la esperanza de vida del enfermo. Las modificaciones en las histonas, conocidas recientemente como código histónico, afectan a la estructura de la cromatina y juegan un papel importante en el desarrollo de la tumorogénesis. Sin embargo, se sabe poco acerca de aquellas células que adquieren la capacidad de metastatizar, y es por ello que en el presente trabajo se estudian las diferencias epigenéticas entre células tumorales primarias y células tumorales metastásicas para el patrón de trimetilación de la histona H3 en tres residuos diferentes del aminoácido lisina: lisina 4 (H3K4me3), lisina 9 (H3K9me3) y lisina 27 (H3K27me3).

Los factores de transcripción E2F son cruciales en la transición G1/S del ciclo celular. El factor de transcripción E2F1 regula el metabolismo oxidativo y su falta genera resistencia a obesidad. Se desconoce si E2F1 y E2F2 están implicados en la regulación de la homeostasis metabólica hepática. Por ello, el objetivo fue investigar el papel de E2F1 y E2F2 en la modulación del metabolismo lipídico hepático y su repercusión a nivel orgánico. Se utilizaron ratones macho de 3 meses E2F1-/-, E2F2-/- y sus controles que serán alimentados con dieta control o rica en grasa (HFD) durante 10 semanas. Se analizaron parámetros séricos en estado de alimento y tras 13 horas de ayuno. Se investigaron in vivo los flujos metabólicos hepáticos implicados en la disponibilidad de fosfolípidos, diglicéridos y triglicéridos (TG) tras administración de sustratos radiactivos.

Background: Excessive apoptosis induces unwanted cell death and promotes pathological conditions. Drug discovery efforts aimed at decreasing apoptotic damage initially targeted the inhibition of effector caspases. Although such inhibitors were effective, safety problems led to slow pharmacological development. Therefore, apoptosis inhibition is still considered an unmet medical need. Methodology and Principal Findings: The interaction between Apaf-1 and the inhibitors was confirmed by NMR. Target specificity was evaluated in cellular models by siRNa based approaches. Cell recovery was confirmed by MTT, clonogenicity and flow cytometry assays. The efficiency of the compounds as antiapoptotic agents was tested in cellular and in vivo models of protection upon cisplatin induced ototoxicity in a zebrafish model and from hypoxia and reperfusion kidney damage in a rat model of hot ischemia. Conclusions: Apaf-1 inhibitors decreased Cytc release and apoptosome-mediated activation of procaspase-9 preventing cell and tissue damage in ex vivo experiments and in vivo animal models of apoptotic damage. Our results provide evidence that Apaf-1 pharmacological inhibition has therapeutic potential for the treatment of apoptosis-related diseases.

[ES] Este trabajo forma parte de un proyecto en el que se estudian dos poblaciones de cárabo común (Strix aluco); una en Durango (Bizkaia) y otra en Burceña (Burgos). Este trabajo se ha llevado a cabo en Burceña y en él se muestran los primeros resultados del uso del espacio de estas rapaces nocturnas y su disponibilidad de alimento en los bosques de esta zona. Para ello hemos obtenido localizaciones de diez cárabos durante un año para conocer los territorios de cada uno y hemos capturado en vivo la dieta principal de esta ave, micromamíferos. Estos resultados los hemos relacionado entre sí para saber si influye el uso del espacio en las capturas de micromamíferos. Estas dos variables también las hemos relacionado con el tipo y la edad de los bosques muestreados. Según los resultados obtenidos podemos afirmar que sí existe una influencia del uso en las capturas, demostrando una relación negativa; es decir, donde se han capturado más micromamíferos es en los bosques que menos frecuentan los cárabos, que a su vez, son los bosques menos accesibles para estas rapaces. ABSTRACT This investigation is part of a work project whereby two Tawny owl (Strix aluco) populations are studied. One of them lives in Durango, Biscay and the other one in Burceña, Burgos. This specific work took place in Burceña and lasted one year. It shows the first results of the study on the use of the space of the Tawny owls and the food availability in their woodland range area. We spotted and traced the home range of ten different tawny owls, and also trapped small mammals which are the staple diet of these owls. We compared both the results obtained in order to know if the use of the area is related to the capture of small mammals. These two variables (space-capture) were also related to the type and age of the sampled forests. The results obtained show that it is true there is an influence of the use of space upon the captures proving to be a negative relation, that is, the largest numbers of micromammals were captured in the woodlands where there are fewer owls, because they are the least accessible forests for these birds of prey.
