E
s una enorme satisfacción poder
presentar un año más la memoria
científica del Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria del Hospital Universitario de
la Princesa (IP).
La difusión de la actividad de investigación que se lleva a cabo en el IP es un elemento de gran importancia. En primer lugar
resulta esencial para dar a conocer la actividad investigadora que se desarrolla dentro
del propio IP, como reconocimiento expreso del esfuerzo llevado a cabo por todos y
cada uno de los investigadores que trabajamos en él, dentro de un año particularmente complicado, como fuera de él poniendo de manifiesto ante otras instituciones la gran capacidad de investigación del
IP. Para ello intentaremos en esta memoria
recoger la actividad científica del IP durante
el pasado 2012.
La producción científica del IP durante
el año 2012 muestra una consolidación de
su tendencia creciente durante los últimos
años, con 340 publicaciones que suponen
un factor de impacto de 1672.99. Estos
datos evidencian la tendencia creciente del
IP no sólo en número de publicaciones,
sino en la calidad de los mismos. Durante el
último año el número de publicaciones en
revistas en primer quartil se ha incrementado en más de un 45% respecto al año
2011.
Desde el punto de vista económico y a
pesar de las dificultades del momento actual, la capacidad de captación de fondos
para la investigación a diferentes niveles, ha
seguido su tendencia ascendente. En este
nce again, it is a great pleasure
to present the Annual Scientific
Report of the Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Hospital Universitario de La Princesa (La Princesa Hospital Institute for Health Research, IP).
The research activity of our Institute is
the result of the combined effort of our
professionals who have worked with
strong commitment and great dedication during 2012. To acknowledge the
effort of our researches, after a year
specially difficult for our institution, and
to show to the Public the outstanding
research capacity of the IP it is particularly important to communicate the results of our research. In the present report we will gather and present the research activity of IP during 2012.
The scientific output during
2012, with 340 publications and a total
impact factor of 1672.99, confirms the
steady tendency to increase in recent
years. Our scientific output has improved both in the number of publications and their quality. During the last
year the number of publications in fist
quartile journal was augmented 45%
compared to 2011.
Despite the great difficulties
faced in the current economic environment, the capacity of IP to attract research funds has maintained an increasing trend. In this scenario, it is important to emphasize the crucial role of
the Biomedical Research Foundation
(FIB) and its great effort dedicated to
O
punto, es importante resaltar el importante
papel de la Fundación para la Investigación Biomédica y el gran esfuerzo de
gestión que realiza para intentar mantener las complicadas condiciones económicas actuales, y así mantener los compromisos adquiridos y las prestaciones
ofrecidas a los investigadores del IP.
Sin duda, es esencial realizar un gran
esfuerzo para mantener la capacidad investigadora del IP al menos en los mismos
parámetros en años previos, por lo que el
trabajo en equipo resulta un pilar fundamental para ello. Como prueba de ello, resaltar que el pasado año 2012 se puso en
marcha la Unidad de Terapias Biológicas
que tiene como participantes a investigadores del IP de los servicios de Reumatología, Digestivo, Neurología, Dermatología y
Farmacia. Esta Unidad (la primera de la comunidad de Madrid) tiene como objetivo la
aplicación de una terapia individualizada
para los pacientes con enfermedades crónicas de base inmunológica, mejorando así
las enfermedades asociadas; favoreciendo
con ello la optimización de los recursos
hospitalarios,
Desde aquí quiero agradecer a los todos los jefes de áreas, jefes de líneas y grupos de investigación, a todos los investigadores así como a las plataformas de apoyo,
su comprometida participación que desde
hace años vienen realizando y no siempre
bajo unas condiciones fáciles. Es por ello
que los resultando obtenidos durante el
año 2012 resultan aún más gratificantes.
the management of resources to keep
up with the services provided to all the
IP researches.
Our institution has pioneered in
2012 the formation of the multidisciplinary Biological Therapies Unit. In this
new unit (the first of this nature in
Madrid) participate IP researchers from
the Rheumatology, Neurology, Gastroenterology, Dermatology and Pharmacy services of la Princesa Hospital in
a project aimed to integrate and optimize the use of Biological Therapies in
immune mediated inflammatory disorders. The main goal of this Unit is the integration of the use of these treatments
from the perspective of increasing efficiency, safety, and cost effectiveness.
The new Unit is an excellent example of
joint collaborative effort that will foster
further research projects.
Finally, I would like to express
here my gratitude to all personnel for
their great effort and committed dedication working for IP during the last few
years. It makes it more gratifying to
present the results of our activity during
2012.
The scientific
output during
2012, with 340
publications and
a total impact
factor of 1672.99,
confirms the
steady tendency
to increase in
recent years

PRODUCCIÓN CIENTÍFICA
SCIENTIFIC OUTPUT
El análisis de la producción científica del IP medido por el factor de
impacto (IF) de las revistas académicas, es uno de los indicadores
bibliométricos más utilizados que muestran la calidad de los trabajos publicados. Este índice, es una medida que se calcula anualmente y refleja el número de veces que los artículos son citados,
referidos al total de las publicaciones “citables” de una revista concreta. Consideraremos como Factor de Impacto (FI) de las revistas
el indicado en el Journal Citation Report (JCR) 2011.
Cada publicación será computada una sola vez cuando sean
referidos al total de las publicaciones y del factor de impacto acumulado del IP. Sin embargo aquellas que involucren a diferentes
grupos de investigación se computan individualmente a cada uno
de ellos y así se muestra con detalle en la actividad científica de
cada grupo. Sólo se mostrarán las publicaciones publicadas en
revistas con factor de impacto superior a 0,9.
Impact factor (IF) of the academic journals in which articles are
published is one of the indicators used most frequently to show the
quality of published articles. This index is calculated yearly and
reflects for each journal the number of times that its articles are
cited, referred to the total number of cited articles in a particular
field. In this report we have used for our analysis the IF indicated in
Journal Citation Report (JCR) 2011.
Each article is counted only once when referred to the total
number of publications and the accumulated impact factor of the
IP. However, those involving different research groups are ascribed
to each of the groups and are shown in detail in the scientific output of the groups. Only the publications in journals with IF higher
than 0.9 are shown
En 2012 un total de 340 artículos fueron publicados en revistas indexadas con FI superior a 0,9; este dato supone un incremento del 15% respecto al año 2011. El factor de impacto acumulado fue de 1672.99. Esto significa que el factor de impacto medio
por artículo fue de 4.92, implicando un aumento significativo respecto al 4.7 del año 2011.
In 2012, a total of 340 articles were published in indexed journals with IF higher than 0,9, representing a 15% increased from
2011. The accumulated IF was 1672.99. These data resulted in a
mean IF per article of 4.92 which represented a significant
increase from the 4.7 of 2011.

En el siguiente gráfico se muestran los artículos del IP distribuidos por quartiles. Durante el año 2012 se ha producido un
incremento en los artículos publicados en revistas de quartil 1, lo
que supone un 57% de todas de las publicaciones.
The following graphic shows distribution of IP articles in different quartiles. In 2012 the number of articles published in quartile

INNOVATION AND TRANSFERENCE
Es esencial para el IP potenciar todos los trabajos llevados a cabo
en materia de innovación. Como prueba de ellos es la Unidad de
terapias Biológicas de nuestro centro, siendo la primera de la
Comunidad de Madrid. La creación de esta unidad es un reto para
la aplicación de los avances en áreas de Neurología, Reumatología,
Dermatología, Digestivo y Farmacia, que favorece no sólo la posibilidad de instaurar terapias personalizadas para los pacientes,
sino también para optimizar los recursos existentes.
Por otro lado los trabajos de innovación de los investigadores
del IP han dado lugar a la solicitud de 5 nuevas patentes y a la concesión durante el pasado año 2012 de otras 7. A continuación se
muestras los detalles de cada grupo.

REF. NUMBER
One of the great achievements of our Institute in the area of
innovation in health care has been the multidisciplinary Biological
Therapies Unit. This new unit (the first of this nature in Madrid) was
established in 2012 by the collaborative effort of researchers from
the Rheumatology, Neurology, Gastroenterology, Dermatology and
Pharmacy services of la Princesa Hospital within IP. It aims to integrate the use of Biological Therapies in immune mediated inflammatory disorders, trying to optimize the use of these treatments
from the perspective of increasing efficiency, safety, and cost effectiveness.
During 2012 seven new patent applications have been filed by
researchers of IP and seven applications were granted. Details for
each group are listed below.

The immune synapse acts as a platform facilitating the passage of genetic material between cells. During immune synapse, the molecules

Tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEM) are ubiquitous specialized membrane platforms formed by the
engagement of tetraspanins in molecular associations
with lipids and selected transmembrane proteins,
mostly integrins, immunoglobulin-superfamily receptors and metalloproteinases. Most studies on
tetraspanins have emphasized their role as scaffolds
of membrane microdomains, however, emerging evidence suggests that tetraspanins might also connect
receptors to signalling cascades and the cytoskeleton. We analyzed the connection of TEM with the
actin cystoskeleton via actinin and syntenin-1. We
demonstrated that actinin regulates the immune
synapse formation and is required for efficient T cell
activation. We extended these observations to virological synapses induced by HIV and so that our data

of syntenin-1 by Src. Our data provide a novel mechanistic link between receptor activation and actin

Model showing the involvement of NDUFA4L2 induction by HIF-1a in
hypoxic adaptation. HIF-1α stabilization by hypoxia upregulates NDUFA4L2, which inhibits ETC Complex I activity. As a result, oxygen consumption decreases and ROS production is abrogated, thereby allowing cells to adapt to the hypoxic conditions. In addition, hypoxia decreases Complex IV levels, which represents a further regulatory point
in hypoxic adaptation.
RESEARCH INTEREST
1) Electron transport chain adaptations to low oxygen
tensions
Fine regulation of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) has proven to be an essential regulatory point under hypoxia.
Over the last years our work have been focused on
how the different complexes within the ETC are modulated by low oxygen availability. Specifically, we have
found that hypoxic stabilization of HIF-1 controls
Complex I inhibition and reactive oxygen species
(ROS) abrogation. This is mediated by the induction
of the new HIF-1 target gene: NDUFA4L2.
Our later results showed how reduction in oxygen availability is sensed by the mitochondria and rapidly trigger
a degradation response over Complex IV subunits. The
final outcome is that Complex IV is reduced while its
subunit composition is gradually altered, adjusting the
ETC to better fit to low oxygen tensions.
2) Role of the ubiquitin ligate SART-1 in the progression of renal cell carcinomas
SART-1 is a novel E3 ubiquitin ligase able to degrade
HIF-1 but not HIF-2 .
We are exploring the role of this ubiquitin ligase in the
regulation of HIF transcription factors in renal cell carcinoma.
HIF-1 is considered to have tumor suppressor
activities whereas HIF-2 is a promoter of tumor progression. Therefore it is important to study new players that may regulate the expression of the HIF transcription factors. Preliminary data of our lab indicate
that depending of the mutation of VHL protein, the
ubiquitin ligase SART-1 may play an important role in
the degradation of HIF-1 in these tumors.
Progression of renal cell carcinoma tumors has been
shown to be dependent on the loss of HIF-1 and
the maintenance of HIF-2 , and studies indicate that
SART-1 may negatively regulate the levels of HIF-1 .
Therefore, the ubiquitin ligase SART-1 might play
and important role in the malignancy of renal cell
carcinomas, eliminating HIF-1 and preserving HIF2 .

Non-enzymatic post-translational modifications in vascular pathophysiology

non-enzymatic
post-translational
modifications
induced by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species,
especially cysteine reversible oxidative modifications.
We also study their relevance in cell function and
AREA 1
pathophysiology, mainly in the molecular and cellular
responses to hypoxia.
We have developed new proteomic methodologies for analyzing these modifications (simultaneously with protein
abundance changes), both with two-dimensional electrophoresis (“redox fluorescence switch”, RFS), and second-generation proteomic techniques (“GELSILOX”
method, in collaboration with Dr. Jesús Vázquez, from the
CBMSO and CNIC).
We have reviewed the role of S-nitrosylation in the immune
system, including the mechanistic and therapeutic
approaches of nitrosothiols in autoimmune diseases. We
have also reviewed the particularities of S-nitrosylation as a
short-distance nonclassical NO signalling mechanism.
MAJOR GRANTS
Short-range and long-range NO signaling. Classical NO signaling, such as
sGC activation, can be exerted at a relatively long distance from NO sources (NOS enzymes), even if NO concentration diminishes while targets
are farther from the NOS. We postulate that S-nitrosylation of target proteins (TP) or interacting proteins (IP) is essentially a short-range mechanism, limited to a tiny sphere around NOS. Among other factors, RNS formation requires higher NO concentrations, which are easier to achieve in
the NOS surroundings, and denitrosylases such as Trx or GSNOR with GSH
can narrow the range of action by reducing target protein S-nitrosylation.

2DE gels of endothelial cells extracts subjected to the Redox Fluorescence Switch (RFS). The green fluorescent signal corresponds to reversibly oxidised proteins; the red signal corresponds to total protein
staining in the same gel. Differential green spots are the proteins reversibly oxidised in hypoxia (2 h, 1% O2). Nine more differential spots
can be found; the solution is in Izquierdo-Álvarez et al., 2012.
We have applied both techniques to analyze differential
reversible cysteine oxidations in the acute response of
endothelial cells subjected to hypoxia. We have
observed a number of proteins that are oxidized after 2
hours in hypoxia, which is reverted by a 30-minutes
reoxygenation. We have identified some of these proteins, among which we have found several proteins that
take part in different protein signalling pathways, as well
as metabolic enzymes that could have their function
altered. The latter could be part of the acute responses
to hypoxia before the transcriptional response by the
canonical HIF pathway is initiated.

Our research interests have centered on the mechanisms that regulate TSP-1 and its counter receptor
CD47, in particular the role of hypoxia and how this
regulation is important in different pathophysiological
aspects. In renal carcinomas, hypoxic conditions
enhance the expression of angiogenic factors that help
adapt tumour cells to their hostile environment.
Conversely, we proved that hypoxia stimulates multiple
signals that independently contribute to diminish
thrombospondin-1 in ccRCC and proved to be important for ccRCC cell migration and invasion (Bienes R. et

CD47 activation promotes PAH through suppressing constituative Caveolin-1 inhibtion of eNOS. Under hypoxia, the CD47 ligand TSP1 is
upregualted. On binding with TSP1 the cell receptor CD47 is activated
leading to disrruption of the constitutive interaction between CD47
and membrane caveolin-1 (Cav-1). This in turn leads to decreased
Cav-1 and increased eNOS activity. Monomeric hyperactive eNOS then
produces superoxide rather than NO resulting in tissue oxidation and
nitration.
AREA 1
ological aspect we were interested in was the role of
TSP-1/CD47 in promoting pulmonary aortic hypertension (PAH) since TSP1 and CD47 null mice are protected in a classic murine hypoxia model of PAH. It has
been previously shown that activation of CD47 by TSP1 inhibits eNOS. In this respect, our studies in animals
and hypoxic cell cultures demonstrated that activation
of CD47 by TSP1, inhibits caveolin-1 (Cav-1), promoting eNOS-dependent superoxide production, oxidative
stress and PAH (Bauer PM et al. Cardiovascular Res.
2012). However it is not completely clear whether this
is a unique mechanism or there are other pathways
regulated by the TSP-1/CD47 nexus involved in the
onset and maturation of PAH and whether hypoxia
could be a condition of these phenomena trigger.
Ongoing areas of interest also include the implications
of this new paradigm in relation to cardiac function and
inflammatory diseases.

The HIF oxygen-sensing pathway in tumor biology
Local O2 supply to cells or tissues becomes limited
during the development of numerous pathological
scenarios such cardiac ischemia, inflammation, solid
tumor formation (malignant cells localized in the
inner core of the tumour). Cell respond to these O2
fluctuations by activating the hypoxia-inducible factors HIF-1 and HIF-2 . We have implemented loss
or gain of function animal models to assess the role
of these two oxygen-sensing pathways in vivo.

mTORC1 activation by the HIF2α-SLC7A5 pathway. The HIF2α oxygen pathway upon Vhl gene inactivation or hypoxia in vivo induces
the expression of the amino acid carrier SLC7A5, which facilitates
the amino acid-dependent mTORC1 activity. This HIF2α-SLC7A5mTORC1 axis mediates tumor progression of Vhl deficient tumors
and provide molecular basis of proliferative responses in non-tumoral scenarios as hypoxic lung.
In particular, our research has been focused on the
role of the HIF-dependent rewiring of cell metabolism and autonomous tumour cell proliferation. We
recently found that the pro-proliferative activity of
HIF2 can be explained by its effects on amino acid
metabolism. Indeed, we found that HIF2 induces
the expression of the amino acid carrier SLC7A5
(Solute carrier family 7A5), a protein that mediates
the uptake of extracellular amino acids, and it also
activates mTORC1, a central element in the growth
and proliferation of cells driven by amino acid availability and the energy status of the cell (Figure 1)
(Elorza et al. Molecular Cell 2012). Therefore these
studies are aimed to unravel the molecular mechanisms by which HIFs factors contribute to tumour
development and open new opportunities for therapeutic intervention.
Overall our aim is to understand the molecular pathways executed by the HIF oxygen sensing pathways, which are critical (i) to understand the molecular bases of numerous pathologies and (ii) to design
novel therapeutical and efficient interventions.

Research in our group is focused on the function of
mitochondria within cells and their implication in the
development of pathological conditions. We have followed several lines of research as described below.
1) We studied the ability of intact mitochondria to generate nitric oxide (NO) and the effect of mitochondrial
NO on respiration in skeletal muscle mitochondria
from control mice and mice injected with E. coli
lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Mitochondria from LPStreated mice had lower respiration rates and higher
P50 values than control mitochondria, suggesting that
mitochondrially derived NO is generated by an LPSinducible NO synthase protein that modulates oxygen
consumption. Aguirre et al. (2012) Mitochondrion,
12:126-131.
2) In collaboration with Dr. F. Díaz-González (Hospital
Universitario de Canarias, La Laguna) and Dr. F.
Sánchez-Madrid (Hospital Universitario de La
Princesa, Madrid), we analyzed the involvement of
reactive oxygen species in the down-regulation of Lselectin induced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs in human neutrophils. We reported the implication of superoxide anion generated by plasma
membrane NADPH-oxidase in this effect.
Dominguez-Luis et al. (2013) Biochem. Pharmacol.,
85:245-256.
3) We have also studied the regulation of mitochondrial uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) expression and function under oxidative stress. We found that hydrogen
H2O2 increases UCP3 expression via Nrf2 promoting cell survival under
conditions of oxidative stress. Model showing the activation and nuclear translocation of Nrf2 induced by H2O2-generated oxidative stress.
The binding of Nrf2 to an ARE within the UCP3 promoter increases UCP3
expression, while superoxide and 4-HNE increase UCP3 activity. Increased UCP3 expression together with protein activation induces a slight
decrease in the membrane potential (mild uncoupling), and an ensuing
decrease in superoxide production. This mechanism promotes cell survival under conditions of oxidative stress. Anedda et al. (2013) Free Radic. Biol. Med., 61:395-407.
peroxide (H2O2) treatment increases both UCP3
mRNA and protein in C2C12 and HL-1 cells, and that
this effect is mediated by the transcription factor Nrf2,
an essential regulator of the cellular redox homeostasis. UCP3 up-regulation increases proton leak and
promotes survival, suggesting a role for this protein in
attenuating ROS-induced damage. Anedda et al.

Pathophysiological implications of the GRK2 interactome.
RESEARCH INTEREST
G protein-coupled-receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is
emerging as a key integrative node in many signaling
networks. GRK2 displays a complex network of functional interactions (“interactome”) that underlies a variety of novel physiological roles. Changes in GRK2
expression occur in several relevant inflammatory,
metabolic, cardiovascular or cancer diseases, suggesting that those alterations may contribute to the
development of these pathologies. In order to assess
the feasibility of GRK2 as a useful biomarker and/or
therapeutic target, our main objectives are the identification of the relevant GRK2 interactome in specific
physiopathological contexts and the evaluation of the
functional impact of alterations in GRK2 levels using
cellular and animal models. During 2011, we have:
a) Revealed the existence of multiple scaffolding functions in the degradation of GRK2 by the proteasome
pathway, and identified a direct interaction between
GRK2 and the Mdm2 E3-ubiquitin ligase (Nogués L et
al., J. Biol. Chem. 2011)
b) Identified a novel Galpha-q/ PKCzeta/ ERK5 pathway that has an important role in angiotensin-mediated
heart hypertrophy in vivo (Garcia-Hoz C , SanchezFernández G et al. , J. Biol. Chem. 2012)

We have unravelled a link between TLRs and NFAT activation that regulates Cox-2, increasing inflammatory
responses. Besides, PGs trigger migration activation of
macrophages and T lymphocytes, including the duration
of antigen presenting cell interaction with T lymphocytes.
TLR2-TLR4/NFATc4 induces expression of some adipogenic and repressed the antiadipogenic genes in
adipocytes, promoting or preventing Obesity. Finally, we
have identified PMEPA1 and DUSP10 as Cox-2 induced
molecules that control differentiation and stress response,
respectively, key in promoting tumorogenicity on colon or

Lipid mediators as prostanoids and cholesterol
derivatives play an essential role in inflammatory
processes associated to the onset and development
of a number of pathologies as cardiovascular diseases. Prostanoids participate in the inflammatory
response and exert important actions in the cardiovascular system, modulating vascular homeostasis
and participating in the pathogenesis of vascular diseases. Their importance in inflammation and in maintaining cardiovascular homeostasis is highlighted by
clinical experience with drugs inhibiting their production as NSAIDs. In spite of their well-known properties as anti-inflammatory drugs, recent studies have
shown that cyclooxygenase -2 selective NSAIDs
inhibitors increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular
side effects. On the other hand, oxysterols and
drugs acting as LXR ligands play a central regulatory role in lipid uptake, metabolism and efflux through
their properties as transcriptional regulators of gene

Coordinated regulation of the expression of COX-2 and mPGES1 in macrophages. Our group have presented evidences indicating that COX-2 and mPGES-1 share common signaling pathways and transcription factors (NF-κB, Egr-1 and CREBP) that
drive a coordinated expression of both genes in LPS-activated
macrophages. The figure shows a model integrating these signaling pathways for the coordinated expression of COX-2 and
mPGES-1 in macrophages. LPS treatment triggers NF-κB activation and Egr-1 expression. These transcription factors are involved in the early induction of COX-2 and mPGES-1. PGE2 produced at this stage promotes an autocrine positive feedback
resulting in increased COX-2 and mPGES-1 expression through
a signaling pathway involving an EP2-dependent increase of
intracellular cAMP. This second messenger leads to the sequential activation of PKA and CREB that, in turns, promote an
induction in the synthesis of COX-2 and mPGES-1, and hence in
PGE2 production.

RESEARCH INTEREST
COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is a
major problem worldwide. In 2012, the GesEPOC
(Spanish Guide of COPD) was developed as an initiative of SEPAR (Spanish Society of Respiratory
Disease), in which many scientific societies, and
various services, including the Pneumology
Department of Hospital de La Princesa have participated. This guide describes the classification of
the severity and pharmacotherapy of stable COPD.
GesEPOC is a new approach to more individualized
treatment of COPD according to the clinical characteristics of patients.
Our group also participated in a national study
where the objective was to determine the frequency, severity, geographical variability and determinants of individual consequences of a restrictive
ventilatory defect measured by spirometry in the
Spanish population.
We have worked with the Immunology Department
of the Hospital to study the role that galectins as

Our previous results showed the significant involvement of the Angiopoietin/Tie-2 axis on CHC progression and therapy response, finding a notable unbalance
of peripheral blood expression of Angiopoietin 1 and 2
(Ang1 and Ang2). Interestingly, we could observe the
relative increase of TEMs in the blood of CHC patients,
monocytes that express the tyrosine kinase receptor of
angiopoietins, Tie-2. This subtype of circulating
myeloid cells, with marked proangiogenic properties
but notable immunosuppressive nature, was also
found at CHC inflamed portal tracts (Figure 1) and has
recently been proposed as a diagnostic biomarker for
HCC by other authors.
Monocytes are essential precursors of antigen-presenting cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, and
notably contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic
inflammatory diseases and cancer; thus, we aimed to
analyze the expression of Tie2 and Angs throughout
monocyte differentiation and maturation. Such
approach pointed out to the sustained expression of
Ang2 by macrophages and dendritic cells derived from
CHC monocytes, which additionally resulted poorly dif-
RESEARCH INTEREST
During last years our research group has been particularly focused on identifying useful non invasive prognostic biomarkers of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) progression to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma
(HCC).
The infection by hepatitis C virus often becomes chronic
due to the inefficacy of immune system to eradicate the
virus; consequently, the inflammatory response is continuously stimulated, altering the self-limiting nature of tissue
repairing mechanisms. Therefore, the expression of multiple angiogenic and fibrogenic-related factors is deeply
modified, behaving as useful markers of disease evolution.

Intrahepatic identification of TEMs in livers from CHC patients.
Immunofluorescence experiments were performed on cryostat
sections from CHC liver biopsies. Image acquisition of single fluorescence identified in the same section CD14, CD31 and Tie-2 (AC and E-G, respectively) of different representative CHC patients.
Their combined immunofluorescences are also shown (D & H).
Tie-2 expression was observed surrounding the hepatic infiltrates, in which TEMs could be distinguished (A-D, arrows). Intrahepatic Tie-2 expressing cells were frequently associated with endothelial CD31 positive cells (E-H). Original magnifications: x400.

ferentiated, in contrast to healthy subjects (Figure 2).
These findings might highlight the relevant role of the
Angiopoietin/Tie-2 system on the regulation of inflammatory response during the progression of chronic diseases throughout its influence on functionality of antigen presenting cells.

(E & F). Thus, Ang2 release was significantly higher in the supernatants from immature MDDCs, mature MDDCs (p <0.05 and p <0.01,
respectively, E), and MDMs (p <0.05, F) of CHC patients compared
with controls. Ang2/Ang1 values in supernatants of CHC mature
MDDCs and MDMs were quite similar to those of CHC monocytes (G
& H). Statistical significance was calculated by Mann-Whitney test,
represented as # p< 0.05 or ## p< 0.01 and *p< 0.05 or ***p< 0.001,
where # represents CHC versus controls and * shows statistical significance during differentiation/maturation.

RESEARCH INTEREST
Hepatotropic viruses, including Hepatitis C virus (HCV),
chronically infect millions of people worldwide. Infection can
lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and
is the major reason for liver transplantation. Current standard-of-care therapy against chronic hepatitis C, pegylated
IFN-alpha in combination with ribavirina, is frequently not
effective depending on both viral and host factors.
AREA 1
These three dimensional cultures supported the entire HCV
infection cycle and produced infective viral particles. In
overall, these studies may provide new insights for our
understanding of virus-host interactions and the molecular
mechanisms underlying hepatotropic viruses-related
pathogenesis of progressive liver disease.

Human hepatocyte-derived cells (Huh7) stably transfected with
MAV-GFP protein. Cells were infected with HCVcc. MAV-GFP protein (green): nuclei stained with DAPI (blue). Nuvlear translocation of protein indicates viral infection.
We are interested in understanding how HCV interacts with
target cells, with particular emphasis on the role of the cellular factors implicated in different steps of the viral life cycle
including entry, replication, morphogenesis and egress.
Our studies have demonstrated that HCV promotes structural and functional alterations of intercellular junctions and
that occludin, a tigh junction associated protein, plays an
essential role in HCV infection. We have also described a
novel use of Matrigel-embedded hepatocytes cultures to
study the HCV infection in a more polaryzed context.

RESEARCH INTEREST
Our current and future work involves different
research fields in endocrine diseases.
First, we are studying the role of (tolerogenic) dendritic cells (DCs) in patients with autoimmune thyroid
diseases
(AITD)
including
primarily
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and Graves’ disease
(GD). During last year, we have discovered that
patients with AITD have diminished levels of plasmacytoid DCs in their peripheral blood and these
cells show both an enhanced production of IFNand defective expression of different immunoregulatory receptors. This abnormal proportion and
phenotype of pDCs may contribute to the pathogenesis of AITD.
In the course of 2012, we have initiated new projects in this field, One aiming to characterize the
regulatory T cells and the other the role of
galectins, both in AITD and healthy controls.
Quantitative and phenotypic analysis of pDCs in thyroid tissue
from patients with AITD. A-E) Hematopoeitic mononuclear cells
were isolated from thyroid tissue (TMC) and blood samples
(PBMC) of five patients with HT (black) and five with GD (red,
dashed line). The percent of pDCs (A) or the MFI values of the
expression of the indicated immunoregulatory receptors (B-E)
was determined by multiparametric flow cytometry analysis.
Results from Paired t-tests, *p<0.05. F) Immunofluorescence
analysis of CD123+ (pDCs, red fluorescence) cells expressing
ILT2 (F) or PSGL-1 (G) (green fluorescence) in thyroid tissue
sections from a representative patient with HT. Cell nuclei were
stained with the Hoechst 33342 dye (blue fluorescence). Original magnification x400.
Another area of investigation is the process of
angiogenesis in neuroendocrine gastroentero-pancreatic tumors (TNE-GP) and their relation to the
somatostatin receptors. We are studying the role of
angiopoietins-1 and -2 and their receptor Tie-2 in
the tumoral cells, as well as their association with
somatostatin receptors and also clinical and pathological factors.
Furthermore, we are studying the role of key molecules in GH secreting tumors, especially those related
to treatment response with the GH antagonist pegvisomant. These studies will include techniques of
molecular biology, including their characterization
through qRT-PCR, genotyping and sequencing with
association studies with the clinical data available.

approaches. Genetic studies are performed to identify
new mutations in genes involved in monogenic obesity,
to identify new candidate genes and to analyze polygenic and epigenetic causes of obesity. Diverse new

Triglyceride accumulation in nonalcoholic fatty liver
(NAFL) results from unbalanced lipid metabolism
which, in the liver, is controlled by several transcription factors, such as the Foxa subfamily. In the
mouse liver, unlike Foxa2, the role of Foxa1 has not
yet been investigated in detail. Therefore, we wanted
to evaluate the role of Foxa1 in two human liver cell
models, primary cultured hepatocytes and HepG2
cells, by adenoviral infection. Moreover, human and
rat livers were analyzed to determine Foxa1 regulation in NAFL. Our findings demonstrated that Foxa1
is a potent inhibitor of hepatic triglyceride synthesis,
accumulation and secretion by repressing the
expression of multiple target genes of these pathways. Moreover, Foxa1 repressed the fatty acid
transporter protein FATP2 and lowered fatty acid
uptake. We also found that human and rat NAFL
have a reduced Foxa1 expression, possibly through a

our work (2) demonstrate that Foxa1 is an antisteatotic factor that coordinately tunes several lipid
metabolic pathways to block triglyceride accumulation in hepatocytes.
Evidence links increased hepatic fatty acid translocase (FAT)/CD36 protein amount and gene expression with hyperinsulinemia in animal models and
patients with fatty liver, but whether insulin regulates
FAT/CD36 expression, amount, distribution, and
function in hepatocytes is currently unknown. To
investigate this, FAT/CD36 protein content and FA
uptake was analyzed in isolated hepatocytes from
obese and lean Zucker rats. We found that
FAT/CD36 protein amount at the plasma membrane
(PM) was higher in hepatocytes from obese rats than
from lean controls. Interestingly, increased amount of
FAT/CD36 protein at the PM and enhanced FA
uptake of obese Zucker rat hepatocytes were maintained only when exposed to hyperinsulinemic conditions. Thus, we showed in this work (3) that high

Despite the growing number of studies linking nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with altered serum
metabolite levels, an obstacle to the development of
metabolome-based NAFLD predictors has been the
lack of large cohort data from biopsy-proven patients
matched for key metabolic features such as obesity.
In order to shed light on this matter, we studied 467
biopsied individuals with normal liver histology or
diagnosed with NAFLD. We showed in this study (1)
that body mass index-dependent serum metabolic
profile may be able to reliably distinguish nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) from simple steatosis
patients, and could have significant implications for
the development of NASH biomarkers and potential
novel targets for therapeutic intervention.

otic cells, occur during infection of cells with hepatitis C
virus (HCV), but the clinical relevance of this process is
not clear. In order to gain insight on this issue, levels of
autophagy were analyzed in liver biopsy samples from
patients with HCV infection. We found that there was an
inverse correlation between microvesicular steatosis
and level of autophagy. In addition, we observed that
HCV selectively induced autophagy of lipids in virusinfected and replicon cells as well as autophagosomes
frequently colocalized with lipid deposits, mainly formed
by unesterified cholesterol. Interestingly, inhibition of the
autophagic process in these cells significantly increased
the induction of cholesterol accumulation by HCV. The
findings of our work (4) indicate that autophagy counteracts the alterations in lipid metabolism induced by HCV,
suggesting that disruption of the autophagic process
might contribute to development of steatosis in patients
with HCV.

For the last two decades, most efforts on new drug
development to treat neurodegenerative diseases
have been done. However, all these compounds
have so far failed in clinical trials or have not contributed to ameliorate the disease advance. It
seems therefore desirable to explore new concepts
Fig. 1. Multitarget compounds acting on VDCCs of soma of vulnerable neurons (A; a DHP-like moiety to mitigate excess Ca2+
entry) and on the MNCX (B; benzothiazepine moiety to abort the
futile MCC) as well as on oxidative stress linked to distorted
Ca2+ homeostasis (C; a polyphenol-like moiety to sequester
excess free radicals) could be a more efficacious strategy to
rescue neurons from death in neurodegenerative diseases. In
this scheme, we propose that a trifunctional compound (i.e., a
hybrid molecule with dihydropyridine benzothiazepine, and
polyphenol moieties) could effectively mitigate the augmented
neuronal (NCC) and mitochondrial Ca2+ cycling (MCC), thereby
exerting a protective survival effects on vulnerable neurons in
neurodegenerative diseases.
and strategies in the field of drug development for
neurodegenerative diseases. We analyze in our
project the hypothesis that a trifunctional chemical
entity acting on the L subtype of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCCs) and on the mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (MNCX), and having
additional antioxidant properties, may efficiently
delay or stop the death of vulnerable neurons in the
brain of patients with neurodegenerative diseases

four review articles focused on the functional triad
hypothesis, the mitochondrial importance on the
regulation of cytosolic Ca2+, and new strategies for
drug development [1-4].
In this context of drug design and development, we
have published two original articles; one of them is
about the mechanism of action of the neuroprotective and natural drug resveratrol. Here, we have proposed that resveratrol is able to mitigate the catecholamine surge occurring during stress, through its
ability to elicit mild local [Ca2+]c transients and
enhanced NO production, that blocks the last steps
of exocytosis [5]. The other article is about a new
class of neuroprotective agents based on 4,6diaryl-1,4-dihydropyridines chemical structure.
These compounds lack the structural features
needed for vascular activity, were found to prevent
calcium overload and behave as neuroprotective
agents. One of the compounds, bearing a 2-thienyl
substituent at C-4, showed the highest neuroprotective activity and was also a moderate antioxidant, being a good compound for further studies in
this area [6].
In addition to new drug development, we have tested our hypothesis of the homeostatic control of
cytosolic Ca2+ by the functional triad in transgenic
– 84 –
mice models of Alzheimer disease (AD). We have
assessed how homeostatic Ca2+ imbalance affect
to exocytosis machinery in chromaffin cells as
periphery neuronal model in this transgenic mouse.
Obviously, the search for synaptic dysfunctions in
AD has been focused on the brain. However, the
analysis of the last steps of exocytosis in the millisecond-time range has been best studied in
peripheral chromaffin cells, using amperometry. This
technique provides information on subtle differences in fast exocytotic mechanisms, which have
not been possible to study in CNS. In this study, we
have compared the kinetic parameters of singlevesicle amperometric events in chromaffin cells from
control C57 mice and the APP/PS1 transgenic
mouse model of AD. Given that cholinergic neuron
loss is prominent in AD brains, we used the AChE
activity technique to assess alterations in both, the
cholinergic innervations and the activity of the
enzyme itself which is substantially depleted in the
brains of patients with AD. Finally we assayed the
presence of amyloid plaque deposition in the adrenal medullae and brain of these mice. In this study,
we have described alterations in the last steps of
regulated exocytosis in a peripheral neuroendocrine
cell of a mouse model of AD. Due to accessibility
and available methodological approaches to study
minute changes of the kinetics of the last steps of
exocytosis, chromaffin cells may become invaluable
models to study the potential changes of exocytotic machine in the various mouse models of AD available (see figure 2). These studies would aid to shed
light on other central pathophysiological alterations
produced by the disease [7].
Finally, we aimed to investigate the effects of chondroitin sulphate (CS) on voltage- and currentclamped rat embryo hippocampal neurons in primary cultures. We found that CS elicited a wholecell Na+-dependent inward current (ICS) that produced drastic cell depolarization, and a cytosolic
calcium transient ([Ca2+]c). Those effects were

the efficacy of new drugs in collaboration with several specialists in the hospital and primary care. During 2012, 15
clinical trials (phase I to IV) were performed.
Pharmacogenetic research is related with various clinical
diseases, trying to look for new pharmacogenetic markers
to predict drug response, both therapeutic and toxic, that
could help physicians to decide the best treatment for
every patient. In 2012, 524 patients benefited from pharmacogenetic testing.
During 2012, our group published 6 articles related to
pharmacogenetics and clinical trials (Agúndez et al., 2012;
Cabaleiro et al., 2012; Carcas et al., 2012; Gallo et al.,
2012; González-Vacarezza et al., 2012; Román et al.,
2012).
RESEARCH INTEREST
The aim of the investigation performed in this group is to
evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and
pharmacogenetics of drugs in order to predict the
response of patients to drugs, in terms of both efficacy
and safety.
Our group has wide experience in the performance of
numerous phase I, II and III clinical trials, with Dr. AbadSantos and Dolores Ochoa as principal investigators. We
have available a Clinical Trials Unit, with capacity for 14
patients (7th floor, Hospital Universitario de la Princesa).
Clinical trials performed include safety, pharmacokinetics,
pharmacodynamics, interaction and bioequivalence studies in healthy volunteers, and studies in patients to probe

RESEARCH INTEREST
In 2012 our group conducted research in the following
key areas:
• 1. Study of the risk factors for psychotic disorders: Our
team started working in a multi-center study to clarify
the role of genes, social environment, and other clinical
variables in the onset of psychotic episodes.
• 2. Application and assessment of interventions in
affective disorders: Clinical researchers of our team
were involved in testing the effectiveness of new ther-
– 92 –

•
apeutic agents in bipolar disorders and treatment
resistant depression.
3. Nosology of mental disorders. Members of our
team have participated in the working groups for the
revision of ICD-10th chapter for mental and behavioral disorders. Currently, our team also leads the
implementation of the field studies in Spanish speaking countries.
4. Analysis and prevention of suicidal behaviour,
mental disorders and promotion of mental health:
Our group leads studies in the analysis of suicidal
behaviour in different settings and organizes training
workshops addressed to mental health professionals
and other non-specialized mental health professionals to prevent suicidal behavior in Madrid.
5. Improvement of mental health services performance in LAMICs countries. Clinicians and researchers
are working to identify key health system barriers to,
and solutions for, the scaled-up delivery of mental
health services in low- and middle-income countries
(LAMICs).
6. Analysis of health status and well-being: Our
group published in 2012 the validation of a short
version of an instrument for measuring subjective
well-being in large population samples. In addition;
researchers worked in the elaboration a roadmap
for mental health and well-being research in
Europe.
• 7. Evaluation of common psychosocial problems in
mental disorders: Our team collected a sample of 80
depressive patients from primary care centers to validate a new generic tool for gathering psychosocial
difficulties in day-to-day clinical practice.

RESEARCH INTEREST
The groups included in this line are focused on epilepsy, one of the most prevalent and sometimes devastating neurologic diseases in humans. We address the
problem from different aspects, ranging from basic
mechanisms of epileptogenesis, to new analytical and
pharmacological diagnostic tools. There are three different Programs in the group:
Temporal lobe epilepsy is commonly associated with
synchronous, hyper-synchronous and des-synchronous activity. However, in patients suffering from temporal lobe epilepsy there exist a clear tendency in the
mesial area of the epileptic side to be organized as isolated clusters of electrical activity as compared with the
contra-lateral side, which is organized in the form of
large clusters of synchronous activity. We addressed
the synchronization and the stability of highly synchronized areas in a group of patients. Our results show the

existence of highly localized and stable synchronization
areas in both the lateral and the mesial areas of the
temporal lobe ipsilateral to the clinical seizures.
Synchronization areas seem to play a central role in the
capacity of the epileptic network to generate clinical
seizures. Resection of stable synchronization areas is
associated with elimination of seizures; nonresection of
synchronization clusters is associated with the persistence of seizures after surgery (Figure 1). We suggest
that synchronization clusters and their stability play a
central role in the epileptic network, favoring seizure
onset and propagation. We further speculate that the
stability distribution of these synchronization areas
would differentiate normal from pathologic cases.
On the other hand, continuing with the previous work,
we have shown that human astrocytes are able to
release the gliotransmitter glutamate, which affects
neuronal excitability through activation of NMDA receptors in neurons. These results reveal the existence of
reciprocal signaling between neurons and astrocytes in
human brain tissue, indicating that astrocytes are relevant in human neurophysiology and are involved in
human brain function (Figure 2).

RESEARCH INTEREST
During year 2012, once more our main source of
publications comes from the intense collaborative
effort with groups of the Network of Inflammation
and Rheumatic Diseases (RIER) that belongs to
the RETICS program from the Instituto de Salud
Carlos III (ISCIII). Interestingly, this year RIER has

researchers. Once again, as a result of this intense
activity of the group, some of its members have
been requested to participate in the drafting of several documents to establish consensus guidelines
for the rational use of biological therapies or imaging techniques in which the establishment of proper cost / benefit ratio is of great importance in the
current economic situation.
For second consecutive year, a research project of
one of our investigators (Dr Santos Castañeda
Sanz) has been granted in the last call for Health
Research Grants from the ISCIII three projects. This
means that currently our group has four active
research proyect in the FIS program of ISCIII.
We would like to acknowledge the generous collaboration of our patients in our research projects.
Their willingness to participate in our studies support the notion that they support our efforts to discover new biomarkers allowing us to treat them
more efficiently.
The figures accompanying this summary represent
two good examples of this kind of research. The
figure related to biomarkers in psoriasis is in

RESEARCH INTEREST
Our Group leads a CIBERehd (Networked Biomedical
Research Centre on Hepatic and Digestive Diseases)
research team focused on the understanding and
management of Helicobacter pylori infection and
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Clinical and epidemiological projects are performed coordinating
networks of gastroenterologists from hospitals all
over Spain. Different projects have been developed in
collaboration with the Pathology service, the
Immunology service and the Clinical Pharmacology
service of La Princesa Hospital, the Research Unit of
Guadalajara’s
Hospital,
the
Pharmaceutical
Technology Department and the Organic Chemistry
department of the Complutense University of Madrid,
the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Department
of Alcalá de Henares University, the Oncology
Institute of Catalunya, the Galician Genomics
Foundation, and numerous Digestive Services
throughout Spain.
In 2012 the group has focused on increasing its
activity in European and international contexts:
• Dr. Gisbert (Group Leader) has been elected
President of the European Helicobacter Study Group.
• Our team leads the organization of the International
Workshop on Helicobacter to be hold in Madrid,
September 2013.
• Coordinates the ‘Pan-European Registry on
Helicobacter pylori infection management’ in which
300 gastroenterologists from 30 European countries participate, making it the largest study on an
infectious agent.
• The United European Gastroenterology has granted this team a long-term educational and research

RESEARCH INTEREST
Our scientific investigation has been focused mainly in
two aspects: The clinical performance of aortic valve
prosthesis and the outcomes of a new treatment for
multiple myeloma.
Regarding the multiple myeloma we reported the efficacy,
safety and health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) associated with long-term lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Len
+ Dex) treatment in patients with relapsed or refractory
multiple myeloma (RRMM) enrolled in the Spanish cohort
of the MM-018 study. In this open-label, multicenter, single-arm expanded access study, 63 patients received
Len + Dex until disease progression. The overall response
rate was 78%, with 21% of the patients achieving a complete response. The quality of response improved with
continuous treatment. Median time-to-progression and
progression-free survival was 13.3 months for both;
median overall survival was not reached. Len + Dex had
a manageable safety profile consistent with previously
reported phase III studies.
Considering heart diseases, we described a total of
168 patients (104 males, 64 females; mean age 62 ±
9.9 years) that underwent aortic valve replacement
with the Bicarbon Overline valve between September
2004 and June 2010. All patients were monitored by
means of clinical examination and serial echocardiography. At the 12-month follow up, peak and mean
transprosthetic gradients were 23.6 ± 8.1 mmHg and
12.9 ± 4.9 mmHg, respectively. Preoperatively, the
average effective orifice area (EOA) was 0.80 ± 0.41
cm2, while the postoperative average EOA was 2.01

Overall cumulative survival for up to four years after surgery.
± 0.26 cm2. No prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM)
was observed. Freedom from any valve-related event
at three, 12 and 24 months was 98.6%, 97.8% and
93.3%, respectively.

RESEARCH INTEREST
Our Group has produced, in the year 2012, twenty-four
papers, with an accumulated impact factor of 172. The
spectrum covers all hematologic neoplasms. The group
continues very active in its presence in Spanish and
International collaborative groups, and most of our production comes from this source, although this year has
shown more presence of our “home-made” production.
In this summary, we comment only the findings coming
from papers. Here follows a selection.
In Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML), Dr. Steegmann
has been the first author of a review of adverse events
(Fig 1) and coauthor of two papers on international
guidelines for management of CML, and on research
methodology and definitions (Fig 2).
In Multiple myeloma (MM), Dr Alegre was the first
author of a paper which summarized the Spanish
experience with lenalidomide plus dexamethasone in
relapsed MM, and coauthor of an important paper on
Outcomes and events in CML. Outcomes and events that may potentially occur during the course of CML disease are presented from diagnosis to death. Intercurrent events (IC) pertain to adverse events (ie,
toxicities resulting from treatment) or events unrelated with the disease or its treatment.Guilhot J, …, Steegmann JL, Zaritskey A, Hehlmann R: Blood 2012, 119:5963-5971
induction therapy of this disease. In Lymphoma, Dr.
Arranz has been coauthor in an study focused in prognosis of advanced Hodgkin`s Lymphoma, a field in
which she continues a long-term work.
Dr. Loscertales has been coauthor of a study which
shows the efficacy of Bendamustine in CLL. Dr. GarciaNoblejas continued to publish in CMV infections after
BMT, with a nice study of the kinetics of NK cells.
Finally, Dr. Figuera and Dr. Steegmann have been coauthors in a PLoS paper mastered by Dr. CuestaDominguez and Fernández Ruiz, describing the tumorigenic activity of a novel BCR-JAK2 kinase

JAK2 is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase, essential for signaling through a variety of cytokine receptors and required for
normal hematopoiesis. Activation of the JAK2-cytokine
receptor complex leads to STAT5 phosphorylation and
nuclear translocation triggering survival gene transcription.
We have described the transforming and tumorigenic activity of a new chimeric protein, BCR-JAK2, obtained from a
patient with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and nonfavorable cytogenetics. Patients with BCR-ABL negative
leukemia with JAK2 rearrangements are not responders to
small tyrosine-kinase inhibitors targeting ABL as Imatinib.
The finding that JAK2 inhibitors down regulate BCR-JAK2
in vitro indicates that patients with leukemia and JAK2
rearrangements may benefit from targeted therapies. That
could be extended to pediatric B-progenitor ALL with JAK2
mutations.
To prove that BCR-JAK2 could be a driving force in
leukemia, we have studied the functional behavior of this
tyrosine kinase in a mouse model of bone marrow transplantation. Lin- progenitors have been transduced with
retroviral vectors bearing BCR-JAK2 and transplanted into

TG101209, a JAK2 inhibitor, down-regulates JAK2, BCR-JAK2, and STAT5
tyrosine-phosphorylation, as well as target gene expression of Ba/F3BCR-JAK2 transduced cells. (A) Sigmoidal dose-response curve showing
viability of Ba/F3-mock growing with IL-3 (IC50= 3180 nM) and Ba/F3BCR-JAK2 and Ba/F3-TEL-JAK2 growing in absence of IL-3 (IC50= 246
and 369 nM, respectively). The percentage of growth, relative to that of
cells in the absence of drug, is plotted for increasing concentrations of
TG101209 (where X axis is the logarithm of concentration). (B) Western
blot analysis of transduced Ba/F3 cells treated for 12 h with 1 μM
TG101209 (TG) or the vehicle (DMSO). Cellular lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-pTyr Ab and immunoblotted with anti-JAK2 (upper panel). Whole cell lysates were probed with anti-pSTAT5, anti-STAT5 and
anti-Bcl-xL Ab’s (bottom). The expression levels of tubulin were used as a
loading control. STAT5 levels were used as a loading control for pSTAT5.
(C) qPCR for Bcl-xL, Osm and Cis expression on Ba/F3-mock, Ba/F3-BCRJAK2 and Ba/F3-TEL-JAK2 cells treated for 12 h with 1 μM TG. For comparative purposes, mRNA levels in untreated cells were normalized to 1.
Bars represent fold changes of each gene after normalization with
GADPH levels. Samples from three independent experiments were measured. Results are given as mean ± SEM (n=3).
previously irradiated syngenic mice to assess its ability to
give rise to leukemia. These mice developed a myeloproliferative neoplasm. Therefore, BCR-JAK2 is a chimeric protein with oncogenic potential. We will use this model to
develop a preclinical study of the efficacy of new JAK2
inhibitors in disease reversion.

CCR7 mediates the pathogenesis of graft-versus-host
disease (GVHD)
GVHD represents one of the major complications associated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Our results
imply that receiving a high number of CCR7+ T-cells, able
to migrate to the recipient´s secondary lymphoid organs,
increases the incidence of GVHD. Therefore, the absolute
numbers of CCR7+ T-cells in the allograft might provide a
predictive indicator of GVHD. In addition, our study indicates that alloreactive cells predominate within the
CCR7+CD62L+ subsets and supports the approaches
of selective T-cell depletion aiming to prevent GVHD.
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor dasatinib modifies NK cell
phenotype
It has been suggested that NK cells improve therapy
responses in dasatinib-treated chronic myeloid leukemia
(CML) patients, but the mechanism is unclear. We show
that the NK cells in dasatinib-treated patients have similar
phenotype to chronically activated NK cells, which might
be a sign of an anti-CML immune response, suggesting
a role of NK cells in the enhanced therapy response.
Predictive markers in rituximab treated rheumatoid arthritis patients
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease, which has been successfully treated with Rituximab
(Rtx). We show that no B cell subset predict an early
relapse in RA patients treated with Rtx. Conversely, the
increase of effector-memory T cells and CXCR5+ T cells,
which are supposed to support antibody secretion, predicts an early relapse. Therefore, we propose that these
subsets may be used as biomarkers to predict poor
response to Rtx treatment.

Lin- primary progenitor cells expressing BCR-JAK2 show increased
survival compared to wild-type (wt) and mock progenitor cells. Linprogenitor cells obtained from male Balb/c mice were transduced with
pLZR (mock cells) or pLZR-BCR-JAK2 retroviral particles and seeded
for proliferation assay during 30 days.
Cortactin controls CCR7-dependent motility and invasion
of breast cancer cells
This work uncovered important aspects of cortactin regulation induced by CCL19/CCL21 engagement of CCR7.
Our findings reveal that CCR7 and cortactin may contribute to breast cancer progression by promoting cellular
structures and processes like lamellipodia and invadopodia, which are essential for metastasis. These results
bring us closer to understanding the link between CCR7
and the pathogenesis of breast cancer.

Serine phosphorylation of cortactin is required for CCR7-mediated migration and invasion of MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
A) Schematic cartoon of the cortactin protein constructs used in this
study. We show the relevant sites of serine (S) and tyrosine (Y) phosphorylation as well as the mutants used in this study (D, aspartic; A, alanine).
B) Assessment of MCF-7 cell invasion in transiently transfected cells with
an empty GFP-fusion vector (GFP), or the 2A or SD GFP-cortactin mutants.
Transfectants were first seeded on top of gelatin-coated inserts in transwell chambers. Then, cells were allowed to invade towards incomplete
medium (white columns) or incomplete medium supplemented with 1
µg/mL CCL19 (grey columns) or CCL21 (black columns) that were added
to the bottom wells. Cells were allowed to invade for 48 h, and they were
deattached of the bottom side of the insert and were counted. Columns
represent the average of four separate experiments, each with duplicate
determinations; bars, SE. **, P < 0.01.
C) MCF-7 cells transiently transfected with an empty GFP-fusion vector
(GFP), or the 2A or SD GFP-cortactin mutants were seeded on p60 plates
and allowed to achieve 100% confluence. Then the monolayer of MCF-7
cells was scratched with a pipette tip and cells were incubated in serumfree media with CCL19, CCL21 or without chemokines. The gaps were
measured after 48 h. Migration of MCF-7 cells in a representative
wound-healing experiment from three is shown. Pictures shown
were taken at 0 and 48 hours.
D) Percentage of open area relative to time 0. Quantification of
wound closure data at 48h and 72h. Change in wound area was calculated as described in Materials and Methods. Results represent
the average of three experiments at each time point. Columns represent the mean of experiments. Error bars indicate SEM. *, P < 0.05;
**, P<0.01; ***, P < 0.001; ns, not significant.

risk has led us this year to participate in two projects.
The first one, the hearts saving project, is a cluster-randomized clinical trial of cardiovascular health education
comparing two strategies in a child population., The
group members are IP and ICs. At this point we have
completed the field work. The assay combines education in prevention and promotion of healthy knowledge
in cardiovascular risk based on the WHO NAOS strategy to prevent childhood obesity and health education.
The study compares 2 strategies for changes: one
measure but not fully utilized, the healthy breakfasts
and another beginning to take hold in other fields of
education, but not in terms of health: healthy concerts.

Activity in Hematology
The use of prophylactic posaconazol in a population at high risk of invasive fungal infection (IFI)
(LAM patients treated with intensive chemotherapy)
is associated with a saving of 1800 euros per
patient compared with fluconazole or itraconazole
prophylaxis. This economic benefit is in addition to
the clinical benefits: lower incidence of IFI and
longer survival in those who received posaconazole. These facts have made posaconazole prophylaxis in these patients the first choice in the most
prestigious international guidelines.
Causes of death in the Spanish HIV Cohort (CoRIS) between 2004 and
2008
Activity in Infectious Diseases
We are involved in the study of treatment, epidemiology, evolution and mortality in HIV-infection. All of this
work is in the context of the CoRIS, the Spanish HIVcohort. Also, we are involved in the treatment of HIVHCV coinfected patients with the new protease
inhibitors of HCV. One of our publications refers to the
differences in the causes of death of HIV-positive
patients in a cohort study by data sources and coding
algorithms. In this study we concluded that there is
substantial variation in CoDs in HIV-infected persons
according to sources and algorithms. ICD-10 in
patients known to be HIV-positive overestimates
HIV/AIDS-related deaths at the expense of underestimating liver-related diseases, infections and ill defined
causes. CoDe seems to be the best option for cohort
studies.

RESEARCH INTEREST
1.- Helicobacter pylori infection
One H. pylori strain was completely sequenced and
– 150 –
IL-12 levels detected with different Helicobacter pylori clinical isolates
after coculture of strains with peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
it is 1,6 Mb. Prophage Finder was used to detect 4
possible prophage in its genome. CRISPRs and
CRISPRs associated proteins was found by using
CRISPR Finder: 2 confirmed and one possible. IL12 production was quantified in coculture of H.
pylori isolates and peripheral blood mononuclear
cells in order to detect association with its virulence
factors. High levels of IL-12 production was
detected (5.860-27.486pg/ml) indicating an important role of H. pylori as cytokine inductor. IL-12
level was not associated with presence of dupA
gene or other virulence factors.
2.- Resistance to antibiotic in several bacteria.
Distribution of Streptococcus pneumoniae
serotypes, its antimicrobial susceptibility profiles
and relationship with vaccines in pneumococcal
strains isolated from blood cultures of adult
patients were studied. A clinical case of an abdominal abscess due to NDM-1-producing Klebsiella
pneumoniae in a 35-year-old Spanish patient after
hospitalization in India due to perforated appendicitis and peritonitis was detected in our Department.
3.- in vitro activity of antifungal agents.
The epidemiology of fungaemia episodes in Spain
were
studied
in
a
multicentre
study.
Epidemiological cutoff values were proposed and
would be useful for monitoring the emergence of
isolates with reduced susceptibility by use of the
Sensititre YeastOne method.

4.- CMV infection
The COBAS AmpliPrep/COBAS TaqMan CMV Test
(CAP/CTM CMV test) was compared to local
assays used by 5 laboratories at transplant centers
in the United States and Europe and a high interlaboratory agreement and precision of the test was
found.

During the last two years several projects in prostate
cancer have focused our current research work. The
main one is a multi-institutional, “Spanish Phase III Trial
comparing Long-Term Versus Short-Term Androgen
Deprivation Combined With High-Dose Radiotherapy
For Localized Prostate Cancer: GICOR Protocol
DART01/05. EudraCT 2005-000417-36”. The encouraging preliminary results have been presented in
national and international meetings along 2011and
2012. Our most immediate major project related to
DART01/05 trial is the participation in the “INTERMEDIATE CLINICAL ENDPOINTS IN CANCER OF THE
PROSTATE (ICECaP) INITIATIVE”, a meta-analysis that
will be carried out by the ICECaP Working Group, a
multidisciplinary team of academic cancer researchers
from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute -Harvard
Medical School-. This meta-analysis will use individual
patient data of all prostate cancer adjuvant clinical trials
with the goal of identifying a validated intermediate clin-

During the year 2012, the group has advanced in its
research lines on head and neck cancer. The multicentric study on the Incidence of Human
Papillomavirus related oropharyngeal cancers, sponsored by Fundación Mutua Madrileña, has been
accepted for publication in Head&Neck journal and in
Clinical & Translational Oncology, both included in
Medline. This work has also been commented on
general media this year, including El Mundo, El País
and ABC.
Another important line of investigation has been the
analysis of Polymorphisms in HIF-1alpha in carcinomas of the larynx, that has been carried out in the
Otorhinolaryngology Department and the Pathology
Department and has been published in Clinical &
Translational Oncology.
We continue to participate in clinical trials on the prevention and treatment of mucositis in head and neck
patients receiving radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy.
One of these multicentric trials is testing the value of

Our group focused on three different research areas.
Prostate cancer(PC): We analyzed the relationship
between circulating tumor cells (CTC) levels and different parameters (PSA levels, Gleason score and
TNM staging) in patients with metastatic hormonesensitive PC and established the prognostic value in
the overall and progression-free survival. The risk of
mortality and progression with ≥ 4 CTC were 4.1 (IC
95 %: 1.1-14.6; P = 0.029) and 8.5 (IC 95 %: 2.626.9; P < 0.001) times higher. The immunomagnetic
test allows us to quantify the CTC in peripheral
blood and could provide a possibility for correctly
staging and estimate the prognostic value of the
metastatic hormone-sensitive PC. Bladder cancer
(BC): We establish a protein expression pattern of
high risk progression superficial BC. It may be an
instrument to discern the appropriate candidates for
more aggressive treatments. By using a
2DElectrophoresis, Mass Spectrometry and silver
staining for protein visualization we analyzed
cytoskeleton, apoptosis and cellular metabolism
related proteins. Cytoskeleton related proteins show
differences between invasive BC (IBC) and non invasive BC (NIBC) versus the control. Proteins related
with apoptosis are significantly increased in NIBC vs
IBC group. Erectile Dysfunction (ED): We determined changes in the plasma proteome of proteins
associated with inflammation and atherogenesis in
diabetic patients with ED after vardenafil administration. The treatment significantly reduced circulating
plasma levels of different biomarkers mainly associated with inflammation and atherogenesis. These
results may suggest that vardenafil plays an antiinflammatory and protective effect on atherogenesis
in diabetic patients with ED.
