Luiz Marcos Frediani Portela

Graduated in Biological Sciences (Bachelor's and Licentiate) by the Biosciences Institute-IBB-UNESP, Master in General and Applied Biology - Concentration area: Structural and Functional Cell Biology and doctored student in the same program. Conducts research activities at the Developmental Biology Multi-Omics Lab (DBMOL) under the guidance of Professor Dr. Luis Antonio Justulin Jr, working in the area of #8203;#8203;DOHaD, investigating the cell biology and histopathology of the prostate of rodents submitted to gestational and lactational protein restriction, from glandular development with aging, the relationship between hormonal imbalance, the incidence of prostate lesions and the role of ncRNA (non-coding RNAs), and transposable elements (TEs) in these processes. The main tools for analysis and characterization of the studied subjects are: omic data analysis (RNA-Seq and mass spectrometry), RT-qPCR, cell culture (siRNA), the use of the database with clinical data of patients with Cancer of Prostate (CaP), ELISA, western blotting, zymography, and immunohistochemistry. He works as a collaborating professor in the disciplines of Cell Biology, Histology, Embryology and Biochemistry, taught in the courses of Biological Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Veterinary Medicine, Animal Science, Medicine, Nursing and Medical Physics.
