Overview

Paola Matarrese is affiliated with the Istituto Superiore di Sanità in Italy and has contributed extensively to the fields of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and medicine. Their work spans several subfields including molecular biology, cell biology, surgery, epidemiology, and cancer research.

Their research primarily focuses on topics such as autophagy in disease and therapy, receptor mechanisms and signaling, glioma diagnosis and treatment, cancer, hypoxia, and metabolism, as well as LGBTQ health, identity, and policy. Further topics include cancer, stress, anesthesia, and immune response, along with mitochondrial function and pathology.

Recent significant publications by Paola Matarrese include:

  • The Impact of Oxidative Stress in Human Pathology: Focus on Gastrointestinal Disorders, 2021, Antioxidants
  • Role of Cholesterol and Lipid Rafts in Cancer Signaling: A Promising Therapeutic Opportunity?, 2021, Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
  • Elesclomol-induced increase of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species impairs glioblastoma stem-like cell survival and tumor growth, 2021, Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research
  • Raft-like lipid microdomains drive autophagy initiation via AMBRA1-ERLIN1 molecular association within MAMs, 2020, Autophagy
  • Coronavirus Interplay With Lipid Rafts and Autophagy Unveils Promising Therapeutic Targets, 2020, Frontiers in Microbiology

Common coauthors frequently collaborating with Paola Matarrese include Barbara Ascione, Rosa Vona, Elisabetta Iessi, Marco G. Paggi, and Claudia Abbruzzese.

They have published multiple times in leading venues such as the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, Cancers, Biomedicines, and Cells.
