معرفی
Chiara Luberto is a Researcher in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at Stony Brook University. Her work focuses on sphingolipid signaling mechanisms and their implications in disease pathogenesis.
- BS in Biological Sciences, Tor Vergata-Roma II University (1993)
- PhD in Oncology, Catholic University of Rome, School of Medicine (1997)
Dr. Luberto's research investigates the regulation of bioactive lipids ceramide and diacylglycerol (DAG) through sphingomyelin synthases (SMS1/SMS2), with particular emphasis on:
- Lipid-mediated signaling pathways
- DAG-regulated protein trafficking at the Trans Golgi Network
- Insulin secretion dynamics
- Role in leukemias and lung cancer progression
Her laboratory explores how these enzymes control fundamental cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, particularly in relation to secretion mechanisms of critical biomolecules.
