Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Laura Botto"
- Laura Botto's recent research focuses on the intersection of environmental pollutants, particularly particulate matter, and inflammatory diseases, with significant implications for conditions such as COVID-19 and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
- Her studies demonstrate how exposure to ultrafine particles (UFP) and other pollutants can activate inflammatory pathways in the body and contribute to disease pathogenesis, highlighting the importance of the ACE/ACE2 axis in these processes.
- Additionally, Botto explores nutritional strategies, such as the use of flavonoid-enriched extracts and coffee-derived compounds, to mitigate oxidative stress and inflammation, potentially offering complementary approaches to existing medical therapies.
