Después de terminar mi máster y tras pasar por varios laboratorios sin un proyecto definido ni financiación, estuve a punto de abandonar la investigación. Debido a esto, todas mis esperanzas por encontrar financiación para desarrollar mi carrera investigadora estaban por los suelos. Anteriormente, había estado matriculado en un programa de doctorado en la Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, cuyo proyecto se estaba desarrollando en el “Grupo de Medicina Genómica” del Hospital Clínico. Debido a que estaba en una lista de correos del hospital, todavía me seguían llegando emails de charlas, ofertas de trabajo, etc. y en Octubre de 2013 recibí un email en el que se anunciaba un contrato para la realización de la tesis en la “Unidad de Cáncer de Pulmón y Enfermedades Respiratorias del CIBIR”. Después del proceso de selección, en el que se tuvo en cuenta tanto la experiencia de cada candidato como la entrevista personal, me quedé a las puertas de conseguir el contrato. Pocos días después de la resolución del proceso de selección, recibí una llamada (concretamente el viernes 6 de Diciembre de 2013) en la que se me comunica que el contrato era para mí porque la persona a la que se le había concedido había renunciado. Ese fue uno de los días más felices de mi vida! En primer lugar me gustaría agradecer a la Consejería de Industria, Innovación y Empleo del Gobierno de la Rioja la aportación económica necesaria para mi incorporación a la Unidad de Cáncer de Pulmón y Enfermedades Respiratorias del CIBIR. También me gustaría dar las gracias a la Fundación Rioja Salud por las maravillosas instalaciones del CIBIR, donde se ha desarrollado la mayor parte de mi tesis. En particular me gustaría dar las gracias a las siguientes personas: A José Pichel, mi director de tesis, por darme la oportunidad de incorporarme a su grupo de investigación, por sus consejos y apoyo durante estos 4 años y por creer en mi “intuición investigadora” cada vez que proponía hacer algo nuevo. A Raquel por su maravilloso trabajo con las histologías, el cual se ve reflejado en las últimas publicaciones del grupo y que son un valor añadido a cualquier trabajo debido a su gran profesionalidad. A Icíar por hacerme sentir como en casa cuando llegué al laboratorio y por enseñarme la dinámica de trabajo del grupo, debido a que todo era nuevo para mí, ya que venía de otro ámbito investigador diferente. Muchas gracias por tu apoyo a nivel investigador durante estos 4 años, sobre todo en los momentos más críticos como son las revisiones de los “papers” en las que se pedían experimentos adicionales y también por cuidar de mis ratoncitos. A Elvira, por ser una excepcional compañera de laboratorio y amiga, siempre con una sonrisa en la cara y optimista ante cualquier adversidad, a pesar de estar en una situación similar a la que yo viví antes de llegar al CIBIR. También me gustaría agradecer su apoyo y tiempo invertido en algunos de los experimentos presentados en esta tesis, así como por la atención mostrada siempre que le explicaba alguna de las técnicas en las que me había formado. Espero y deseo que tengas mucha suerte con tu tesis y poder verte en la presentación de la tuya, en la que seguro mostrarás resultados prometedores. Al resto del personal de la segunda planta del CIBIR: Alfredo, Álvaro, Ana, Angelina, Bea, Bego, Eva, Iñaki, Josune, Juan, Judith, Laura, Luís, María, Rafa, Rodri y Sonia. Por el buen ambiente de trabajo y las risas y tertulias de la hora del café que hacían que me olvidase de los problemas cotidianos. A Angelina, Chus y Lidia, por compartir esta experiencia tan bonita del doctorado y nuestras luchas con el “RAPI”. Os deseo un todo lo mejor para el futuro! A Mikael Adner, mi supervisor durante la estancia predoctoral realizada en el “Instituto Karolinska” de Estocolmo, por su apoyo y consejos como experto en asma para la realización de proyecto colaborativo entre ambas instituciones fruto del cual ha salido una publicación muy bonita. A Josh Gregory, por introducirme en el campo de la alergia durante la estancia predoctoral realizada en el “Instituto Karolinska” de Estocolmo y por su apoyo a nivel técnico. También me gustaría agradecerle que me haya hecho partícipe de la cultura de su país “EE.UU.”, al invitarme a vivir lo que es la “cena de acción de gracias”, un acontecimiento muy importante para él. Por ultimo me gustaría agradecer a mi familia (papa, mama, abuelas y a mi hermano, Rodri), por todo su apoyo a pesar de estar lejos de ellos durante todo este tiempo. A ellos les debo todo lo que soy, los valores que me han enseñado y que me han hecho ser como soy, entre los cuales se encuentran la constancia, la humildad y la generosidad. Durante estos 4 años he tenido momentos muy buenos debido a los buenos resultados obtenidos y a las recientes publicaciones del grupo. Por otro lado, también ha habido momentos muy duros tras la pérdida de mi mejor amigo, mi padre, durante mi segundo año aquí en el CIBIR. Gracias a la ayuda de mis compañeros y familia, he tirado hacia adelante como lo habría hecho él, ya que una de sus grandes lecciones que nunca olvidaré es que nunca hay que rendirse, ya que la constancia es lo que hace conseguir grandes cosas en la vida. Siempre recordaré sus últimas palabras hacia mí, en las que literalmente me dijo “eres auténtico”, palabras que para mí significan mucho porque él creía mucho en mí y en que podía conseguir grandes cosas. Por todo ello, le doy las gracias por lo que me ha enseñado y por ser el mejor padre posible. Me gustaría terminar estos agradecimientos diciendo lo mucho que admiro a mi madre, hermano y abuelas por sacar esa fuerza para tirar hacia adelante en los momentos más duros.

  • Comparison of Gene Expression Profiles in Chromate Transformed BEAS-2B Cells
    Comparison of Gene Expression Profiles in Chromate Transformed BEAS-2B Cells Hong Sun1, Harriet A. Clancy1, Thomas Kluz1, Jiri Zavadil2, Max Costa1* 1 Nelson Institute of Environmental Medicine, New York University School of Medicine, Tuxedo, New York, United States of America, 2 Department of Pathology, NYU Cancer Institute and Center for Health Informatics and Bioinformatics, NYU Langone Medical Center, New York, New York, United States of America Abstract Background: Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is a potent human carcinogen. Occupational exposure has been associated with increased risk of respiratory cancer. Multiple mechanisms have been shown to contribute to Cr(VI) induced carcinogenesis, including DNA damage, genomic instability, and epigenetic modulation, however, the molecular mechanism and downstream genes mediating chromium’s carcinogenicity remain to be elucidated. Methods/Results: We established chromate transformed cell lines by chronic exposure of normal human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells to low doses of Cr(VI) followed by anchorage-independent growth. These transformed cell lines not only exhibited consistent morphological changes but also acquired altered and distinct gene expression patterns compared with normal BEAS-2B cells and control cell lines (untreated) that arose spontaneously in soft agar. Interestingly, the gene expression profiles of six Cr(VI) transformed cell lines were remarkably similar to each other yet differed significantly from that of either control cell lines or normal BEAS-2B cells. A total of 409 differentially expressed genes were identified in Cr(VI) transformed cells compared to control cells. Genes related to cell-to-cell junction were upregulated in all Cr(VI) transformed cells, while genes associated with the interaction between cells and their extracellular matrices were down-regulated.

Stroke is the leading cause of death in Portugal and the third leading cause of death in the developed world. It is even more disabling than lethal, and the persistent neurological impairment and physical disability caused by stroke have a very high socioeconomic cost. Moreover, the number of affected individuals is expected to increase with the current aging of the population. Stroke is a “brain attack” cutting off vital blood and oxygen to the brain cells and it is a complex disease resulting from environmental and genetic factors.

  • KRAS Mutations Are Negatively Correlated with Immunity in Colon Cancer

ABSTRACT The heterogeneity of colon cancer tumors suggests that therapeutics targeting specific molecules may be effective in only a few patients. It is therefore necessary to explore gene mutations in colon cancer. In this study, we obtained colon cancer samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas, and the International Cancer Genome Consortium. We evaluated the landscape of somatic mutations in colon cancer and found that KRAS mutations, particularly rs121913529, were frequent and had prognostic value. Using ESTIMATE analysis, we observed that the KRAS-mutated group had higher tumor purity, lower immune score, and lower stromal score than the wild- type group. Through single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, we found that KRAS mutations negatively correlated with enrichment levels of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, inflammation, and cytolytic activities.
