Daniele Tibullo is an Associate Professor in biochemistry in the Section of Biochemistry, Department of Biomedical and Biotechnological Sciences, University of Catania, Italy. He completed his Ph.D. in the Division of Hematology, AOU "Policlinico - Vittorio Emanuele", University of Catania, Catania, Italy, with broad research interests in cancer biology, metabolism in hematologic diseases, flow cytometry, clinical hematology, cell proliferation, and cells. Since the beginning of his career, his research activity has focused on the role of heme oxygenase 1, the mechanisms connected to iron metabolism, and the interaction between tumor cells and immune cells. In his scientific work, studies on metabolic consequences in response to treatments and the mechanisms of resistance to therapy have particular importance, particularly concerning the metabolic fitness of solid and hematological tumors. His research activity has primarily focused on preclinical research in mouse and zebrafish models and in vitro using human and mouse cell models. Among his most significant lines of research, studies on the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory roles of alpha lipoic acid have a prominent place.
