Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry

Maria de Lourdes Bastos spends much of her time researching Pharmacology, Toxicity, Biochemistry, MDMA and Antioxidant. The Pharmacology study combines topics in areas such as Metabolite, Oxidative stress, Cathinone and Glutathione. Her Toxicity study combines topics in areas such as Acivicin, Surgery, Distribution and Pentapeptide repeat.

Her research in the fields of Hepatocyte, Intracellular and Phenols overlaps with other disciplines such as Pregnane X receptor. She has researched MDMA in several fields, including Neurotoxicity and Monoamine oxidase B, Monoamine oxidase. Her work in the fields of Hydroxyl radical overlaps with other areas such as Ascorbic acid.

Her most cited work include:

  • Toxicity of amphetamines: an update (256 citations)
  • Molecular and cellular mechanisms of ecstasy-induced neurotoxicity: an overview. (224 citations)
  • Pesticides exposure as etiological factors of Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases—A mechanistic approach (215 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her primary areas of investigation include Pharmacology, Toxicity, Biochemistry, Glutathione and Chromatography. The various areas that Maria de Lourdes Bastos examines in her Pharmacology study include Oxidative stress, Neurotoxicity and Ecstasy. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Toxicity, Antidote is strongly linked to Paraquat.

Her work on Intracellular as part of her general Biochemistry study is frequently connected to P-glycoprotein, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Viability assay and Lipid peroxidation, Antioxidant. Her MDMA research incorporates themes from Ethanol and Hallucinogen.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Pharmacology (42.91%)
  • Toxicity (22.55%)
  • Biochemistry (18.55%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Pharmacology (42.91%)
  • Toxicity (22.55%)
  • Metabolomics (8.00%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Pharmacology, Toxicity, Metabolomics, Cytotoxicity and Metabolome. Her work deals with themes such as Oxidative stress, Ex vivo and Nephrotoxicity, which intersect with Pharmacology. In her study, Cell and Mitoxantrone is inextricably linked to Glutathione, which falls within the broad field of Oxidative stress.

Her Toxicity study incorporates themes from Pharmacokinetics, MDMA, Methylenedioxypyrovalerone, Cytotoxic T cell and MTT assay. The study incorporates disciplines such as Clear cell, Extracellular, Metabolic pathway, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and Prostate cancer in addition to Metabolomics. Her studies in Cytotoxicity integrate themes in fields like SH-SY5Y, Methamphetamine, Biophysics and Colloidal gold.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Identification of a biomarker panel for improvement of prostate cancer diagnosis by volatile metabolic profiling of urine. (20 citations)
  • A multiparametric study of gold nanoparticles cytotoxicity, internalization and permeability using an in vitro model of blood-brain barrier. Influence of size, shape and capping agent. (11 citations)
  • The novel psychoactive substance 3-methylmethcathinone (3-MMC or metaphedrone): A review. (11 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry

Maria de Lourdes Bastos mostly deals with Colloidal gold, Biophysics, Cytotoxicity, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and Metabolomics. Her research investigates the connection between Colloidal gold and topics such as Biodistribution that intersect with issues in Biocompatibility, Drug delivery, Fetal bovine serum, Metabolism and Biotin. The concepts of her Metabolism study are interwoven with issues in Amino acid, Glutathione and Toxicity.

Her Toxicity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Methcathinone, Methamphetamine, Pharmacology, SH-SY5Y and Designer drug. Her Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry course of study focuses on Prostate cancer and Urinary system. In her research on the topic of Metabolomics, Metabolome, Computational biology, Biological pathway and Proton NMR is strongly related with Metabolic pathway.
