معرفی
Luciano Saso is a Full Professor at the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Sapienza University of Rome. He holds a Laurea in Chemistry (1987) and a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences (1992) from the same institution. His research specializes in oxidative stress modulation, antioxidant pharmacology, and the therapeutic applications of natural compounds in neuroprotection, cancer, and inflammatory diseases.
Research interests center on:
- Redox biology and NRF2/KEAP1 signaling
- Medicinal chemistry of coumarins and flavonoids
- Enzyme inhibition strategies
- Neurodegenerative and cardiovascular disease mechanisms
- COVID-19 therapeutic targets
His publications demonstrate consistent focus on antioxidant therapeutics, with recent work exploring nanomedicine, polyploid cancer cells, and multi-antioxidant approaches for stroke and ALS. Article keywords reveal strong emphasis on natural product chemistry, molecular pharmacology, and disease-specific oxidative pathways.
