Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Andrea Ribeiro Dos Santos"
- Andrea Ribeiro Dos Santos' research primarily focuses on the intricate relationships between mitochondrial dysfunction, genetic factors, and their implications for neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's disease (PD), highlighting the crucial role of mitochondrial Complex I alterations in the disease's pathogenesis
- Recent studies involve the exploration of gene co-expression networks related to levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in PD, indicating a significant difference in gene expression between patients experiencing LID and those who are not, thereby advancing the understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying this condition
- Dos Santos also investigates the genetic components influencing various health conditions in Amazonian populations, including the impact of mitochondrial DNA variants on PD susceptibility and the genomic profiles related to mercury metabolism, showcasing her commitment to addressing health disparities within marginalized groups
