Arachidonic Acid Products in Renal and Endocrine Physiology and Pathophysiology

Our projects intend to clarify, from basic science, the role of arachidonic acid metabolites on the function of endocrine systems under normal and pathological conditions. Our aim is to investigate whether the dysregulation of these products contributes to endocrine pathology.

Main project

Involvement of cytochrome P450- arachidonic acid metabolites on the biology of endocrine- related tumours.
