Sergio A. Cortés-Ramírez

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sergio A. Cortés-Ramírez's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer, particularly prostate cancer, and the development of theranostic tools. His work investigates the role of specific molecules, such as EV-derived miR-150-5p, in cancer metastasis and its association with high-grade Gleason scores, suggesting implications for diagnosis. Cortés-Ramírez has also explored the potential of drug repositioning in oncology, examining compounds like sildenafil for new therapeutic applications. His research extends to the broader influence of cellular components, like platelets, on tumor progression and their potential use in liquid biopsies. Additionally, his publications address the complex interplay between hormone-related cancers and autoimmune diseases, as well as the genetic factors influencing metabolic variability in type 2 diabetes patients. Cortés-Ramírez has a publication record that includes studies on transcriptomic analysis in response to environmental exposures and the empirical characterization of gene expression data in biological models.
