Since 25 years, Prof. Luca Bini is active in the global approach to the study of proteins. He is internationally well known as contributors to the establishment of the concept of “proteome science”.
The main research activities were focused on proteome analysis of clinical specimens such as cells, biopsies and body fluids in different patho-physiological conditions (breast, stomach and lung cancer, lung fibrosis, acute phase, cellular differentiation and signalling, apoptosis, etc..) to identify multivariate prognostic/diagnostic markers. Prof. Bini is one of the major expert on 2D-immunoblotting coupled to high sensitivity chemiluminescent detection system to study sets of proteins sharing post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, oxidation) and to study the immunproteome of infectious disease, using patient sera. The research group is involved in the study of the immuneresponse in autoantigenic neurodegenerative pathologies, such as Multiple Sclerosis. The group headed by Prof. Bini is also active in the proteomic characterization of different myopathies, fibrotic and oncologic diseases and in the molecular characterization of some genetic diseases such as Cornelia de Lange and Osteogenesis imperfecta. The scientific activity is well documented by more than 400 articles (160 in- extenso, H-index: 30), focused on proteomics applications to the study of biomedicine, model organisms, plants and bacteria.
