Rui Eduardo Castro received his B.Sc. degree in Microbiology and Genetics in 2002, after completing a thesis on the role of tauroursodeoxycholic acid in apoptosis following several neurological insults. In his PhD thesis, he further illustrated the role of ursodeoxycholic acid in inhibiting apoptosis at the transcriptional level, with involvement of classical mitochondrial pathways in primary rat hepatocytes.
At the present, the research being developed by Castro combines his solid background in the modulation of liver cell function by bile acids with his most recent discoveries in the miRNA field, to answer fundamental questions on the pathogenesis and therapeutic targeting of non-alc...
