Head and Neck Cancer: Biomedical Research Cancer Stem cells

The work of the Biomedical Research in Cancer Stem Cell group focuses mainly on senescence (replicative or stress-induced oncoge). In our laboratory, we carry out several genetic screens based on the detection of new genes / small interfering RNA (siRNA) / microRNAs related to cell proliferation, which have a role in cancer. Therefore, we use different cell models: murine cells, human primary cells or immortalized cells capable of entering senescence.

The objectives of the group are:

  • Identification and characterization of genes / microRNAs in mammary tumors associated with a more aggressive character (triple negative).
  • Identification and characterization of markers in lung, laryngeal and pharyngeal cancer with diagnostic and prognostic value that help to target a more specific chemotherapy treatment.
  • Identification and characterization of populations of cancer stem cells (CSC) in tumors resistant to conventional therapies.
  • Early detection of breast cancer before it manifests itself clinically.
  • Study of new genes involved in cancer from their identification in massive genetic scans at the basic level.

Identificación y caracterización de poblaciones de CSCs ("cancer stem cells") en tumores

A partir de diversos tipos de cánceres que incluyen desde mama, pulmón, cabeza y cuello, en particular los más letales (faringe y laringe), aislamos poblaciones de CSCs para determinar su caracterización completa e implicación en la clínica.

Research group in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (osas).

Research group in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), using as animal model the brachiocephalic breed, Boxer (English and French) is constituted by Drs. Juan Lorente Guerrero (UAB Lecturer, Hospital de la Vall d’Hebron), Santiago Lavin González (Professor), Rafaela Cuenca Valera (Lecturer), Josep Pastor Milán (Lecturer), Roser Velarde Nieto (Specialized Technician in Research Support) and Marta Planellas Bachs (Associate
Professor at the Hospital Clínico Veterinario de la UAB.).


The main objective of this investigation is to define similarities and differences between human patients and animals regarding this particular disease  in order to, if that were the case, use brachiocephalic breed as animal models in the options of treatment for the human disease.


The specific objectives of this research line are the following ones:


1. Defining histopathological and immunohistochemical changes regarding myosin fiber distribution of type I and II,  that produce soft palate in brachiocephalic dogs affected by upper airway obstruction syndrome,  regarding dogs without this pathology which have been euthanize for different reasons.


2. Establishing existing similarities and differences between soft palates in brachiocephalic dogs affected by upper airway obstruction syndrome and uvula of human patients with OSAS.


3. Determining correlation between degree of injuries observed at histopathological and immunohistochemical level and the clinics presented in each patient, firstly in each specie alone and afterwards comparing them.


4. Determining levels of canine acute-phase proteins (C-reactive protein, haptoglobin), as inflation indicators, and levels of cardiac troponin I, as myocardial damage indicator, in animals affected by upper airway obstruction syndrome to compare them afterwards with those that present dogs that are not affected by this pathology.


5. Evaluating surgical treatment efficacy as therapeutic alternative, in dogs affected by upper airway obstruction syndromes, through a clinical monitoring, supported by complementary diagnostic tests.

The sessions were aimed at establishing new collaborations to advance the prevention and treatment of this type of tumour.

On World Cancer Research Day, we highlight research aimed at improving treatments for both pediatric and adult cancers through innovative techniques.

The Biomedical Research in Cancer Stem Cells group at VHIR has identified a new therapeutic target and is working to find new therapies for this type of tumor.
