Translational Molecular Pathology

Our group aims to unravel the molecular mechanisms of cancer progression and metastasis to identify new diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic targets in cancer. By combining the knowledge and availability of human tumors in the Pathology department with the expertise of the basic molecular cell biology research group, we focus on:

  • Understanding: the molecular mechanisms underlying clonal cooperation and intercellular communication in heterogeneous tumors.
  • The role of MNK kinases in cellular stress resistance.
  • The role of ITGB3 in intercellular communication via extracellular vesicles in cancer metastasis (Santiago Ramon y Cajal).
  • The role of direct cell-cell communication via gap junctions and intercellular protrusions in cancer (Trond Aasen)
  • The malignant transition of Plexiform Neurofibromas (Cleofe Romagosa).

Involvement of the human Hepatitis A Viral Receptor (hHAVcr-1) in renal cancer development and progression. Value as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in renal carcinomas

We have postulated that hHAVcr-1 might constitute an important biomarker for early detection of ccRCC and could also be used as a target for therapy of kidney carcinomas, since immunotoxins directed against the monkey homologue of hHAVcr-1 could kill kidney cells.


Specific aims are focused to: i) determine the diagnostic and prognostic potential of hHAVcr-1 expression in renal cell carcinomas, by correlating hHAVcr-1 levels in archive, fresh surgical and TMA tissues  with tumor anatomo-pathological characteristics and patients outcome and, ii) determine the function of hHAVcr-1, which remains elusive, in development and progression of kidney carcinomas, using ccRCC derived cell lines with silenced or overexpressed hHAVcr-1. Tumors overexpressing or defective in hHAVcr-1 will be compared with controls, in relation to their behavior and anatomo-pathological characteristics. Differences are being correlated with proteomic and gene expression profiles obtained on each case. Differential expression pathways and target molecules correlating with absence/presence of hHAVcr-1 shall be identified. New strategies for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of ccRCC must be further developed.

Long-term mast cell stabilization downregulates mucosal microinflammation in the jejunum of diarrhea-prone irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

Study of the effect of mast-cell stabilization on mucosal inflammation and the clinical response. Inmunohistochemistry analysis of microinflammation (mast cells, intraepithelial lymphocytes and eosinophils) in Irritable Bowel Syndome (IBS) Biological inflammation was evaluated in pooled biopsies by quantitative real time PCR to analyze the expression of preselected genes implicated in innate inmunity (Toll-like receptors (TLR) and defensins (DEF)), mast cell activation and growth and neuronal regulation.. Mucosal eosinophils show restrained activation in the yeyunum od diarrhea –prone irritable bowel sindrome patiens

Pharmacological stabilization of mucosal mast cells effectively reduces pro-inflammatory gene expression profiles in the jejunal mucosa of D-IBS patients and concomitantly improves clinical manifestations.

Mechanisms of cerebral aging: role of GSK3ß/cdk5 and sirtuins.

Aging may be considered as an accumulation of changes in cells and tissues that increases the risk of disease and death. The senescence-accelerated prone mice SAMP8 is an aging model with brain histopathological signs and other aging-related disorders, such as ß-amyloid and tau protein aggregates and increased oxidative stress. If hyperphosphorylated, tau protein contributes to the development of a tauopathy, process linked to neurodegenerative diseases of the aging brain such as Alzheimer disease. Several kinases (PKC, ERK, CDK5 or GSK3ß) perform this tau protein post-transcriptional modification. We plan to determine the effect that inhibitors of these kinases such as lithium, in vivo and in vitro, could have in slowing down the brain neurodegenerative processes. Besides, we will study the role of a newly described protein family, sirtuins.


Sirtuins are ontogenically preserved proteins related to longevity. We will evaluate the gene and protein expression of Sirt 1, 2 and 3 in cultured neurons and in the brain of this mouse strain. We seek to elucidate the participation of sirtuins in cerebral ageing using as a tools resveratrol, a flavonoid described as activator of these proteins, and caloric restriction, two paradigms that lead to an elongation of lifespan and neuroprotection in several animal models. In the in vitro studies, the role of GDNF in maintaining neuronal functionality and its correlation with sirtuins will be investigated because this trophic factor decreases with aging and shows a lesser expression in SAMP8 mice. These studies will contribute to the development of new therapeutic strategies to prevent age-related neurodegeneratives diseases.

Role of HER3 expression in carcinogenesis of endometrial and breast tumors. Search for new predictive markers to anti-HER treatments.

The cell signaling pathways downstream of epidermal growth factor receptor family members is tightly regulated in normal epithelial cells, and its alteration induce different cell processes (cell proliferation, cell growth, etc...) which triggers in cellular transformation. Within this family receptors, HER1/EGFR and HER2/neu are the best known, being subject to interest other family members like HER3. The aim of the study is establish de role of HER3 protein expression by Immunohistochemistry in endometrial and breast tumors, and establish any association with clinic-pathological parameters. Furthermore, we would like to know the implication of HER3 in the resistance mechanisms to anti-HER treatment agents.
