Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto (FMRP) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Academic Researcher at the Babraham Institute/UK and post-doc at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology and Pathogenic Bioagents, Ribeirão Preto Medical School (FMRP) USP (SP, Brazil), where he had previously received his MSc. and Ph.D. in cell biology. Was a visiting researcher at the National Institutes of Health (NIH - NIDCR/MPTB; USA). Received the B.S in Veterinary Medicine at the Federal University of Goiás (GO, Brazil). His research experience in Cell and Molecular Biology and Innate Immunity focuses on the role of signalling proteins and specific lipids in the events of signal transduction, especially in lipid rafts, calcium mobilization, cytoskeleton rearrangement, the release of inflammatory mediators, and LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) in immune cells. Has published ten papers and received several awards as a result of presentations in scientific meetings and an honourable mention for the best doctoral thesis of the Cell and Molecular Biology Graduate Program/USP.

During phagocytosis, components of the autophagic machinery can associate with the phagosomal membrane in a process known as LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP). This association occurs independently of the signaling pathways that trigger and regulate autophagy in response to nutritional stress, or macroautophagy, although the mechanisms regulating LAP are not well understood. In macrophage…
Mast cells are immunoregulatory cells that are implicated in innate and adaptive immunity. Mast cells participate in different biological events such as host protection, angiogenesis, inflammatory and allergic reactions. The action of mast cells is related directly to their activation and subsequent mediator release. The best characterized mast cell activation pathway is that via the high…
Mast cells are immunoregulatory cells that participate in various biological events such as host defense, angiogenesis, inflammatory and allergic reactions. These events are directly related to mast cell activation and subsequent mediator release. Mast cell activation generally occurs through the interaction of a multivalent antigen (allergen) with immunoglobulin E (IgE) bound to the high…
The non-canonical pathway of autophagy known as LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) is a key cellular process that regulates the responses of innate immune cells, controlling the balance of inflammation, and innate responses that promote tissue protection and repair. LAP, an example of a CASM (Conjugation of ATG8 to Endolysosomal Single Membranes) event, utilizes some, but not all, componen…
Mast cells are immunoregulatory cells that participate in various events such as asthma, allergy, and inflammation. The action of mast cells is directly related to their activation and subsequent release of various chemical mediators. Activation via the high affinity IgE receptor, FcµRI, is the best characterized form of mast cell activation that results in mediator secretion. Mediator re…
