Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sergio A. Cortés-Ramírez's research focuses on cancer biology, with a particular emphasis on prostate cancer. His work investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor progression, metastasis, and potential therapeutic strategies. He has explored the role of extracellular vesicle-derived microRNAs in prostate cancer metastasis and their association with Gleason scores. Cortés-Ramírez has also examined the impact of environmental factors, such as low-concentration bisphenol exposure, on prostate cancer cells through transcriptome-wide analysis. His research interests extend to drug repositioning, as seen in his work on sildenafil in oncology, and the broader role of platelets in cancer progression and liquid biopsy. He has also contributed to understanding genetic variability in conditions like type 2 diabetes through transcriptomic analysis in zebrafish embryos. Cortés-Ramírez has published 17 papers, accumulating 261 citations, and holds an h-index of 9. He collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Alberto Losada-García.
