Research/Clinical Interest
Title
Molecular mechanisms of chronic alcohol and obesity induced fatty liver disease
Description
My research investigates how genetic, environmental, and life-style factors influence the initiation, progression, and severity of liver diseases and how these alterations impact risk for cardiovascular disease. Our studies are important for identifying a link between the severity of alcohol and obesity-related fatty liver disease (i.e., steatohepatitis) and increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Principal areas are focused on understanding how disruption in nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) signaling, and changes to mitochondria, contribute to pathology (liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer). We are also interested in determining how disruption in cellular circadian rhythms or ‘clocks’ contribute to liver disease.
