Generally, we are interested in the molecular mechanisms that underlie cardiac hypertrophy and failure. One of the major mechanisms involved in the development of heart disease is dysregulation of gene expression at the transcriptional, posttranscriptional, or translational level, which is the focus of our research. Specifically, our interest is in deciphering the histone code that regulates transcriptional activity and its modulation by the type of diet during cardiac hypertrophy and failure.

Historically, our laboratory studied the role of cytokines in driving differentiation and function of effector T cells and investigates the intracellular mechanisms of resistance to Toxoplasma gondii parasites. More recently, we have turned our efforts into understanding the relationship between host cell tropism, the immune response and the ability of the host to tolerate disease and establish homeostasis. We have recently proposed the concept that pathogens express specific "a-virulence" determinants that engage host disease tolerance pathways. | Department of Medicine | ||
