Research Interest

Proteomic approach of identifying early breast cancer biomarkers (proteins, proteases, and hormones) in the fluid of the breast microenvironment (BCF and NAF), collected noninvasively from healthy and breast cancer patients; Study of signaling mechanisms regulating biomolecular expression and enzymatic activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMP) in physio-pathological conditions (e.g., breast cancer, neural stem cell differentiation, chronic venous disease); Degradomic approach of analyzing proteinases circulating in biological fluids (NAF, plasma, urine), released from healthy and diseased tissues during neoplastic, inflammatory and degenerative processes; Biomolecular approaches of studying single cell analysis for a single patient pharmacogenomic.
