Overview

Adriana Albini is affiliated with the University of Milano-Bicocca in Italy and has contributed extensively to research in fields related to medicine and molecular biology. Their publication record spans diverse areas such as oncology, immunology, cancer research, and infectious diseases.

Among their recent papers are:

  • The SARS-CoV-2 receptor, ACE-2, is expressed on many different cell types: implications for ACE-inhibitor- and angiotensin II receptor blocker-based cardiovascular therapies (2020, Internal and Emergency Medicine)
  • Insights into phenolic compounds from microalgae: structural variety and complex beneficial activities from health to nutraceutics (2021, Critical Reviews in Biotechnology)
  • Prostate Cancer Peripheral Blood NK Cells Show Enhanced CD9, CD49a, CXCR4, CXCL8, MMP-9 Production and Secrete Monocyte-Recruiting and Polarizing Factors (2021, Frontiers in Immunology)
  • COVID-19 and Obesity: Dangerous Liaisons (2020, Journal of Clinical Medicine)
  • The multifaceted nature of IL-10: regulation, role in immunological homeostasis and its relevance to cancer, COVID-19 and post-COVID conditions (2023, Frontiers in Immunology)

Their research focuses on main topics including:

  • Edible Oils Quality and Analysis
  • COVID-19 Clinical Research Studies
  • Cancer, Lipids, and Metabolism
  • Angiogenesis and VEGF in Cancer
  • Long-Term Effects of COVID-19
  • Immune Cell Function and Interaction
