Hypothyroidism attenuates protein tyrosine nitration, oxidative stress and renal damage induced by ischemia and reperfusion: effect unrelated to antioxidant enzymes activities (2005)

Tenorio-Velázquez, Verónica M, Barrera, Diana, Franco, Martha, Tapia, Edilia, Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Medina-Campos, Omar, ...

Abstract Background It has been established that hypothyroidism protects rats against renal ischemia and reperfusion (IR) oxidative damage. However, it is not clear if hypothyroidism is able to...

Time course study of oxidative and nitrosative stress and antioxidant enzymes in K2Cr2O7-induced nephrotoxicity (2005)

Pedraza-Chaverrí, José, Barrera, Diana, Medina-Campos, Omar N, Carvajal, Raymundo C, Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Macías-Ruvalcaba, Norma A, ...

Abstract Background Potassium dichromate (K 2 Cr 2 O 7 )-induced nephrotoxicity is associated with oxidative and nitrosative stress. In this study we investigated the relation between the time course...

Peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst ameliorates renal damage and protein nitration in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in rats (2004)

Chirino, Yolanda I, Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Pedraza-Chaverrí, José

Abstract Background Oxidative stress is involved in cisplatin-nephrotoxicity. However, it has not completely established if reactive nitrogen species and nitrosative stress are involved in this...

S-allylmercaptocysteine scavenges hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen in vitroand attenuates gentamicin-induced oxidative and nitrosative stress and renal damage in vivo (2004)

Pedraza-Chaverrí, José, Barrera, Diana, Maldonado, Perla D, Chirino, Yolanda I, Macías-Ruvalcaba, Norma A, Medina-Campos, Omar N, ...

Abstract Background Oxidative and nitrosative stress have been involved in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity. The purpose of this work was to study the effect of S-allylmercaptocysteine, a garlic...

Mycobacterium bovis BCG Substrains Confer Different Levels of Protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection in a BALB/c Model of Progressive Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Castillo-Rodal, Antonia Isabel, Castañón-Arreola, Mauricio, Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Calva, Juan José, Sada-Díaz, Eduardo, López-Vidal, Yolanda

Mycobacterium bovis BCG is the only available vaccine against tuberculosis. Reasons for why diverse BCG substrains induce different levels of protection in clinical trials remain unclear. The aim of...

Airways infection with virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis delays the influx of dendritic cells and the expression of costimulatory molecules in mediastinal lymph nodes

García-Romo, Gina S, Pedroza-González, Alexander, Aguilar-León, Diana, Orozco-Estevez, Hector, Lambrecht, Bart N, Estrada-Garcia, Iris, ...

Despite tuberculosis resurgence and extensive dendritic cell (DC) research, there are no in vivo studies evaluating DC within regional lymphoid tissue during airways infection with virulent...

PhoP: A Missing Piece in the Intricate Puzzle of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Virulence

Gonzalo-Asensio, Jesús, Mostowy, Serge, Harders-Westerveen, Jose, Huygen, Kris, Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Thole, Jelle, ...

Inactivation of the transcriptional regulator PhoP results in Mycobacterium tuberculosis attenuation. Preclinical testing has shown that attenuated M. tuberculosis phoP mutants hold promise as safe...

Orally Administered Mycobacterium vaccae Modulates Expression of Immunoregulatory Molecules in BALB/c Mice with Pulmonary Tuberculosis ▿

Hernández-Pando, Rogelio, Aguilar, Diana, Orozco, Hector, Cortez, Yuriria, Brunet, Laura Rosa, Rook, Graham A.

The environmental saprophyte Mycobacterium vaccae induces a Th1 response and cytotoxic T cells that recognize M. tuberculosis, and by subcutaneous injection, it is therapeutic for pulmonary...
