Description de la recherche
My research program is focused on understanding the biology of extracellular vesicles in hypertension, diabetes, and kidney disease. To achieve my research goals, I employ cellular and animal models as well as well-characterized clinical samples. Currently there are three major research focuses in my laboratory.
1. Advancing knowledge of extracellular vesicle formation/signaling in diabetes and
hypertension
2. Understanding of the role of extracellular vesicles as markers/mediators of kidney
disease.
3. Assessing the impact of renal replacement on extracellular vesicles
4. Use of small extracellular vesicles in tissue regeneration
