Graduated in Biological Sciences from the Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences and Languages of Ribeirão Preto - University of São Paulo (2002). Held the master's and doctorate in Basic and Applied Immunology by the Ribeirão Preto Medical School - University of São Paulo, with emphasis on the study of Neuroimmunology (2005 and 2009). Postdoctoral developed in the Department of Pathology and Immunology of Washinghton University in St. Louis, MO, USA, under the supervision of Dr. Marco Colonna in the study of the functions of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (from 2013 to 2015). She is currently a postdoctoral fellow by the Ribeirão Preto Medical School - University of São Paulo, under the supervision of Dr. João Santana da Silva, where investigates the role of dendritic cells and their PRRs in Coxsackie virus infection. She has experience in the area of Immunology, with emphasis on infectious diseases (coxsackievirus, LCMV, Plasmodium berghei and Trypanosoma cruzi) and cellular immunity. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is one of the most common hemoglobinopathies in the world. Patients with SCA present reduced quality of life due to complications resulting from the change in the shape and physical properties of erythrocytes. These complications consist of chronic hemolytic anemia, pain crisis, organ dysfunction, susceptibility to infections, among others. SCA can be considered a…

LXN gene that encodes a latexina carboxipeptidases-inhibited showed increased expression in the intermediate and final stages of erythroid differentiation in previous results published by our group. The gene silencing in K562 was able to reduce the expression of alpha and gamma globins genes and HbF production after eritropoese induction. In vivo model, zebrafish embryos silenced for LXN …
Dendritic cells (DC) are a heterogeneous group of cells divided in several subsets that, although share the common function of antigen presentation, they play distinct roles in immune response. Although it has been well studied the different cytokines and transcription factors that induce the development of the distinct subsets of DCs from monocytes and bone marrow precursors during homeo…
The development of the distinct subsets of dendritic cells (DCs) from monocytes and bone marrow precursors during homeostasis is mediated by the different transcription factors expressed and the cytokines present in the microenvironment. A number of these cytokines and their receptors is up-regulated upon infection, which can influence the expansion and the differentiation of the preforme…
