Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Bachelor's degree in Nutrition from the Faculty of Public Health at the University of São Paulo - USP. She was a student in a undergraduate research project in the area of neurosciences. She has a master's degree and is currently doing a doctorate at the State University of Campinas - UNICAMP, working with energy metabolism in adipose tissue. She has experience in histological, microbiological, cell culture and molecular biology techniques, working with the following techniques: in situ hybridization, immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy and image analysis, PCR/qPCR, cloning, western blotting, ELISA. She participated in studies about COVID19 related to the infection of adipose tissue by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. She currently dedicates her time to the investigation of mechanisms associated with the circulating molecules responsible for the regulation of UCP1. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The prevalence of obesity has been growing worldwide alongside its comorbidities. Current anti-obesity therapies appear to be poorly efficient, especially on the long-term, and are associated with significant side effects. There are two ways to lose weight: by decreasing energy intake or increasing energy expenditure. One way to increase energy expenditure in mammals is through the stimul…

CD36 membrane receptor is a glycoprotein found in several mammalian cell types.Its known functions are as diverse as: fatty acids internalization-transport, regulationof angiogenesis, platelet activity modulation and specific recognition of oxidizedlipoprotein and certain pathogen products. This receptor can also be involved inresponses to sensorial stimuli, because CD36 in rodents and it…
