Journal ArticleDOI
Selective antimicrobial activity of chitosan on beer spoilage bacteria and brewing yeasts
TL;DR: In brewery wort, chitosan selectively inhibited bacterial growth without altering yeast viability or fermenting performance, and antimicrobial activity was inversely affected by the pH of the assay medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imatinib resistance in multidrug-resistant K562 human leukemic cells.
Yanina A. Assef,Fernanda Rubio,Georgina Pamela Colo,Silvana del Mónaco,Monica Alejandra Costas,Basilio A. Kotsias +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the vincristine-resistant K562 cells which developed MDR phenotype, exhibited resistance to imatinib associated with a functional P-gp over-expression, suggesting that this resistance could be partially overcome by the inhibition of NF-kappaB pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell Migration in BeWo Cells and the Role of Epithelial Sodium Channels
Silvana del Mónaco,Gabriela Inés Marino,Yanina A. Assef,Alicia E. Damiano,Basilio A. Kotsias +4 more
TL;DR: Immunocytochemistry studies showed that the three ENaC subunits showed greater expression at the leading edge of the wound 3 h after injury, supporting the notion that these proteins participate in a postinjury signal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epithelial Sodium Channel in a Human Trophoblast Cell Line (BeWo)
TL;DR: The results suggest that BeWo cells express ENaC subunits and that aldosterone was able to modulate a selective response by generating amiloride-sensitive sodium currents similar to those observed in other human tissues.
Journal Article
[Characterization of the epithelial sodium channel in human pre-eclampsia syncytiotrophoblast].
Silvana del Mónaco,Yanina A. Assef,Alicia E. Damiano,Elsa Zotta,Cristina Ibarra,Basilio A. Kotsias +5 more
TL;DR: The transcription of the alpha-ENaC mRNA was not detectable in preeclamptic placentas and the protein was not observed with immunohistochemistry staining, probably indicating a low protein expression level, which could lead to future studies concerning the mechanism involved in the pathophysiology of pre-eclampsia.
