Cardiovascular Models

Interests

Sex differences in drug action related to treatment of cardiovascular disease is neglected, however, most drugs removed for use by the FDA relate to adverse effects in women. I am interested in exploring sex differences using in vitro models. Separately the enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase has been implicated in cardiovascular disease development. We have developed small molecules that target this enzyme and identified rare mutations that are linked with disease. Exploring drug action in genetic models in vitro is of interest.
