Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Olivia Reyes‐Castro's research focuses on understanding cellular senescence and its role in disease, particularly in the context of bone destruction during breast cancer metastasis. Her work investigates the NAD salvage pathway in mesenchymal cells and its importance for skeletal development in mice. She has utilized single-cell transcriptomic analysis to identify senescent osteocytes as key contributors to bone destruction in metastatic breast cancer. Additionally, her research explores how estrogens influence bone mass by inhibiting NAD+ metabolism in osteoclasts. Reyes‐Castro collaborates extensively with colleagues at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Aric Anloague, Hayley M. Sabol, Sharmin Khan, and Japneet Kaur, with whom she has co-authored numerous publications. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 43 total publications and 39 total citations.
