Andrea Cabrera Pastor

Andrea Cabrera Pastor is a Lecturer in the Department of Pharmacology at the Faculty of Medicine and Odontology, University of Valencia. Her work bridges pharmacological research and neuroscience, with a focus on molecular pathways involved in neurological dysfunction related to liver disease.

Research Interests: Her research primarily investigates the Glu-NO-cGMP pathway and its role in learning and memory, particularly in the context of hyperammonemia and hepatic encephalopathy. Using animal models, she explores how extracellular cGMP modulates cerebellar function and cognitive processes. Her work contributes to understanding the neurochemical basis of hepatic encephalopathy and identifying potential therapeutic targets.

She was associated with the LONI Laboratory of Neurological Impairment, indicating active participation in translational neuroscience research. Although no recent publications are listed in the provided text, her doctoral work suggests a strong trajectory in neuropharmacology and molecular mechanisms of neurological impairment.

Academic Background:

• PhD in Pharmacology, University of Valencia, 2014

Supervision and Collaboration: She was supervised during her doctoral studies by Dr. Vicente Felipo Orts, Dr. Juan Viña Ribes, and Dr. Marta Llansola Gil, all prominent researchers in neuropharmacology and oxidative stress. This indicates her integration into a well-established research group focused on brain-liver interactions.

Laboratory Affiliation: Was part of the LONI Laboratory of Neurological Impairment, a research group dedicated to studying the mechanisms underlying neurological dysfunction in liver diseases.
