With the aim of expanding the druggable proteome and lead to the discovery of new medicines, we work on the characterization of understudied human proteins, which show preliminary connection to disease. Within this aim, research has been expanded on the importance of protein related to RNA biology as antibody and drug targets, including the proteins 'per se' and their upstream modulators …
Schistosomiasis is a very debilitating disease, spread across three continents and infecting more than 200 million people. Administration of praziquantel to infected individuals is the basis of current schistosomiasis therapy; however, cure rates of less than 50 % have been recorded and drug tolerance has been already reported, reinforcing the need for new and more effective approaches in…
Despite the advances on agricultural practices to feed the growing world, it is necessary to increase the global food production adopting sustainable practices. Several plant growth-promoting bacteria can greatly increase crop yield through a wide variety of interaction mechanisms. Recently, our group have isolated more than 7,000 bacteria from sugarcane roots or cultivated soil in differ…
Heart failure (HF) is a national and global epidemic affecting millions of patients worldwide. HF is characterized by intense remodeling of the myocardium and important metabolic changes in cardiomyocyte biology. These changes are thought to be both a cause and consequence of the remodeling process and, thus, important targets for new pharmacological therapies. It is thus critically impor…
Gaucher disease is an autosomal recessive disease with a prevalence of 1:60,000 to 1:200,000 births. So far there is no cure, but there is treatment. Current treatments consist of replacement therapy with placenta-derived glucocerebrosidase (pdGBA) or recombinant glucocerebrosidase (rGBA). Despite the advantages of rGBA compared to pdGBA, such as reduced risks of viral contamination, the …

The need to adopt more sustainable practices in agriculture has increased the demand for bioinoculants development and research. In this regard, plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) have become the target of studies for increasing the yield of agricultural crops through rising nutrient availability in the soil and the synthesis of plant hormones such as auxin and gibberiline. In additio…
