Eficácia de técnicas não invasivas [TMS e tDCS] no controlo da dor em doentes o...
Peixoto, Joana; Bártolo, Ana; Rodrigues, Pedro F. S.; Fernandes, Sara M.Background: Pain is one of the most common and debilitating symptoms among cancer patients, significantly impacting their quality of life. Effective management of cancer pain is challenging due to its varying intensity and characteristics, making it a public health priority. Recently, neuromodulation techniques, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), ...
Efficacy of neuromodulation techniques (TMS and tDCS) in cancer pain management...
Peixoto, Joana; Fernandes, Sara M.; Rodrigues, Pedro F. S.; Bártolo, AnaThe global incidence of oncological disease is rising, driven by increased longevity and greater exposure to carcinogens. Pain remains one of the most prevalent and disabling symptoms among cancer patients, requiring urgent evaluation and treatment. However, selecting an effective therapeutic approach remains a challenge. Neuromodulation techniques such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and Transcrani...
Study of the relevance of antioxidant enzymes in thyroid cancer
Freitas, Sílvia; Peixoto, Joana; Máximo, Valdemar; Soares, PaulaThyroid cancer(TC) is the most common endocrine malignancy, arising from follicular and parafollicular cells. Oxidative stress, caused by excess reactive oxygen species(ROS) and metabolites, influences TC development and progression, as the thyroid is highly exposed to ROS. The redox balance is maintained by antioxidant enzymes (SOD, GPX) and non-enzymatic antioxidants, which limit ROS formation and detoxify me...

High-Throughput Drug Screening Revealed That Ciclopirox Olamine Can Engender Ga...
Pádua, Diana; Figueira, Paula; Pinto, Mariana; Maia, André Filipe; Peixoto, Joana; Lima, Raquel T; Pombinho, António; Pereira, Carlos FilipeCancer stem cells (CSCs) are relevant therapeutic targets for cancer treatment. Still, the molecular circuits behind CSC characteristics are not fully understood. The low number of CSCs can sometimes be an obstacle to carrying out assays that explore their properties. Thus, increasing CSC numbers via small molecule-mediated cellular reprogramming appears to be a valid alternative tool. Using the SORE6-GFP repor...
High VEGFA expression Is associated with improved progression-free survival aft...
Alves, Bárbara; Peixoto, Joana; Macedo, Sofia; Pinheiro, Jorge; Carvalho, Bruno; Soares, Paula; Lima, Jorge; Lima, Raquel T.Glioblastoma (GB) is a deadly tumor that demands for relevant biomarkers, particularly regarding patients’ response to treatment. MMP-2, MMP-9, VEGFA, and YKL40 are important molecules, given their implication in the infiltrative and angiogenic phenotype of GBs. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, VEGFA, and YKL40 in GB tissues and the patients’ respo...
What Role for Carboxytherapy in the Treatment of Acne Scars?
Peixoto, Joana; Resse Lascasas, Joana; Vedor, SofiaIntroduction: Acne is an extremely prevalent condition. The healing of active acne lesions may result in the development of scars. Atrophic scars are the main scars caused by acne and result from the degradation of collagen fibers. Carboxytherapy is a minimally invasive method that involves the application of carbon dioxide subcutaneously through small infiltrations in the skin, which improves scar tissue by in...
