Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Bachelor's at Pharmacy and Odontology from Universidade de São Paulo (1953) and Doctorate at Oral Pathology at the University of Campinas (1964). Post-doc at the University of Freiburg (Germany)(1970/1972) and Michigan Cancer Foundation (Detroit, USA)(1985). Visiting professor at the University of Vien (Austria, 1991), Technical University of Munich (1991 and 1992), Autonomous University of Madrid (1992) and visiting cientist at the Fox Chase Cancer Center (Philadelphia, USA)(1997). Currently, he is Emeritus Professor at the University of Campinas. He has experience in Morphology and Biophysics, acting on the following subjects: optical anisotropies, collagen (from molecular approaches to medical applications), tendons, image analysis and topochemistry. He has also experience in Chromatin studies (image analysis and infrared microspectroscopy). (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The action of Valproic Acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, has been investigated in several cell models under various experimental conditions. VPA has also been considered for clinical applications because of its modulating activity on gene expression. VPA affects different types of epigenetic marks through mechanisms that vary, depending on cell types and their physiological/pat…
Collagen fiber structure and organization have been found to vary in different tendon types. Differences have been reported in the FT-IR spectra of the amide I band of collagen-containing structures. In the present study, the FT-IR spectral characteristics of the amide I band of the bovine flexor tendon and theextended rat tail tendon were compared by using the diamond attenuated total re…
In interphase cells chromatin results from the integration of the structure, organization and supraorganization of nucleoprotein complexes. Chromatin harbors DNA - associated activities like the control of gene expression, replication, recombination and repair, thus playing a significant role in the cell "fate". Although huge methodological and technological advancements in Cell Biology a…
