Our research is involved to study the physiology of the female genital tract at cellular and molecular level. We are mainly focused to elucidate the genomic and non-genomic signaling pathways of estradiol or 2-methoxyestradiol that regulate reproductive events associated with egg transport, sperm migration or embryo development. Our aim is to find new molecular markers of estrogens to design new therapies that discriminate between genomic and non-genomic effects of estradiol and its metabolites.
