Short CV
Celso A. Reis is the Head of the Glycobiology in Cancer group at i3S/Ipatimup, University of Porto, where he leads an international multidisciplinary team working on the Glycobiology in human diseases with focus on Cancer. He has published 186 peer-reviewed papers, with over 10100 citations and with H-index of 48 (Scopus). His publications include papers in journals such as: Cancer Cell, Nature Cell Biology, Glycobiology, Glycoconjugate Journal, International Journal of Cancer, Cancer Research, PNAS, JBC, JACS, BBA, FEBS Lett, Molecular Cellular Proteomics, Journal of Proteomics Oncogene, Cancer Letters, Mucosal Immunology, Cellular Immunology, Journal Clinical Investigation, Nature Reviews in Cancer, among others.

Celso A. Reis research focus on the role of glycosylation in human cancer. He has addressed the molecular mechanisms controlling glycosylation in cancer cell biology, more specifically the role of glycosyltransferases regulating the biosynthesis of glycans in cancer. These included the role of sialyltransferases leading to the biosynthesis of terminal sialylated glycan antigens expressed by cancer cells, such as ST6GalNAc determining the aberrant expression of the simple O-glycan Sialyl-Tn antigen, and the ST3Gal-transferases and Fucosyltransferases controlling the expression of sialyl-Lewis antigens.

Celso A. Reis has contributed for determining the role of these glycosylation modifications, including O-glycans and N-Glycans and the consequences to gastrointestinal cancer cell biology, including the mechanisms regulating cancer invasion, metastasis and tumour glycoimmunology. CR has also addressed the application of glycoconjugates as biomarkers in human cancer and pre-neoplastic lesions, and the application of novel unique monoclonal antibodies to clinical samples, currently in the market.

Currently, Celso A. Reis develops novel strategies to detect and characterize cancer, in order to be able to improve cancer treatment based on the identification of the key glycans controlling cancer cell communication, glycans that can be used as markers for cancer patient stratification, as well as glycans and glycoconjugate that can be used as novel targets in therapy.
