Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Nikolina Jovancevic"
Nikolina Jovancevic's research primarily focuses on the functional characterization of olfactory receptors (ORs) in various human tissues, including the thyroid gland, skin, and retina, demonstrating their diverse physiological roles beyond traditional olfactory functions.!
Her findings highlight the expression and potential roles of specific ORs, such as OR51E2 and OR2A4/7, in cancer biology, particularly in melanoma and prostate cancer, suggesting that these receptors may influence cell migration, proliferation, and the progression of malignancies.!
Additionally, Jovancevic's work emphasizes the therapeutic implications of ORs as potential drug targets, indicating a novel avenue for clinical applications, especially in cancer treatment and the modulation of physiological processes in non-olfactory tissues.!
