Master in Biochemistry from FMRP/USP (2022-2024) and Biomedical Scientist from UFTM (2018-2022), with technical training in Clinical Analysis from CEFORES-UFTM (2018-2020). During his undergraduate studies, he was a CNPq-funded research fellow in Immunopharmacology (2020-2022), investigating the effects of Cryptococcus spp. on human bronchial epithelial cells. He also developed his research project in Biochemistry, focusing on Nutrition and Metabolism (2022), analyzing the impact of the pandemic on the glycemic and lipid profile of children.During his master's, he was a FAPESP-funded research fellow in the Graduate Program in Biochemistry at FMRP/USP, where he investigated the effects of a high-protein diet on the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis in mice.He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Biochemistry at FMRP/USP, aiming to understand the effects of a high-protein diet and pentoxifylline on muscle alterations induced by cachexia associated with B16F10 melanoma in mice.

Cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome characterized by skeletal muscle loss, affecting approximately 50% of cancer patients. Attenuating tumor growth can partially reverse muscle atrophy associated with cancer. In this context, previous studies have shown that a high-protein (HP) diet reduces tumor growth and metastasis. However, the impact of a HP diet on muscle mass and function in tumo…
Hepatic gluconeogenesis is vital for maintaining glycemic levels in different physiological situations. Previous work from our laboratory have demonstrated that animals adapted to a high protein (HP) diet, free of carbohydrates, are able to maintain glycemia, both in the fed and fasting state, due to the high hepatic gluconeogenic capacity, proven by the high incorporation of ¹tC of amino…
