Graduated in Pharmacy-Biochemistry from the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo (2000), Master's (2002) and Ph.D. (2006) in Physiology from the Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo. Postdoctoral fellow at the Laboratory of Systemic Inflammation at St Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center (2008-2009). She served as a visiting research associate at the University of California - Santa Barbara (2019-2022). She is currently an associate professor at the Federal University of ABC in São Bernardo do Campo. Current research field focus on Physiology and Neuroscience, working on the understanding on how biological processes and environmental factors influence organs and systems, especially those related to the central nervous system and the brain. Using an approach with an emphasis on genes, molecules and cells, the laboratory's studies aim to understand the pathophysiological and cellular bases that lead to the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease.

- Effect of ambient temperature on anxiety and social interaction in Wistar rats, BP.IC
Abstract
Anxiety is a normal emotion in threatening conditions and is considered a survival reaction. In some circumstances, however, the anxiety is irrational and can be a response to stressful situations. It is known that living organisms are constantly exposed to changes in ambient temperature and that can influence a variety of physiological and pathophysiological functions as well as various …
- Involvement of TRPM8 channels in thermoregulation of Wistar rats, BP.DR
Abstract
Internal body temperature (Tb), among other vital signs, is extremely important for maintaining homeostasis of living organisms, since it influences the majority, if not all, physiological and pathophysiological processes. Regulation of Tb is made by autonomic and behavioral thermoregulatory mechanisms, and influenced by ambient temperature. However, the molecular mechanisms for detecting…
- Involvement of TRPV4 channels in thermoregulation and social behavior of Wistar rats, BP.MS
Abstract
Body core temperature (Tc) among other vital signs, is extremely important for maintaining homeostasis of living organisms, since it influences the majority, if not all, physiological and pathophysiological processes. Regulation of Tc is made by autonomic and behavioral thermoregulatory mechanisms, and influenced by ambient temperature. However, the molecular mechanisms for detecting the …

- A transcriptome analysis of TREM2 mutant patients: implications for the understanding on microglia dysfunction as a risk factor for Alzheimer´s disease, BE.PQ
Abstract
Alzheimer´s disease (AD), the most prevalent form of late-onset dementia, is the sixth leading cause of death in the USA, placing a substantial burden on the health care system (Alzheimer´s association annual report). Only a small fraction of all AD cases (< 5%) are related to mutations in APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2 genes that lead to heritable early-onset AD. Most patients with late onset AD …
- Roles of thermoTRP channels in the effects of estrous cycle on thermoregulation in rats, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
The molecular mechanisms for detecting the ambient temperature (Ta) and internal body temperature (Tc) were not widely known until the recent discovery of TRP channels ( "transient receptor potential"), particulary those that are sensitive to temperature (thermoTRP). The regulation of Tc is extremely important for the maintenance of homeostasis of living organisms and thermoregulatory sys…
- Assessment of the influence of mild chronic intermittent cold exposure on the core body temperature, cognitive function, and phosphorylated Tau and BAG2 levels in familial and sporadic mouse models of Alzheimer's Disease, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive and irreversible neurodegenerative disease, accepted to be caused likely due to genetic and/or environmental factors. Loss of memory is one of the earliest clinical symptoms. AD can be classified into late-onset sporadic (SAD) or early-onset familial (FAD) that corresponds only to 1% of cases, and both are histopathologically characterized by amyl…
