RESEARCH INTERESTS:
My laboratory is interested in novel cAMP signal transduction mechanisms mediated by the regulatory subunit of the camp-dependent
protein kinase, through its interaction with various other proteins targets in addition to the catalytic kinase subunit. Another
major interest centers on the use of expression genomic to delineate the factors that are involved in drug resistance in cancer.
Recently, observations from such studies resulted in the discovery of a molecular target that was further subjected to high-throughput
screening for small molecule intervention. Our laboratory has identified lead compounds that were further exploited for development
into potential therapeutic for modulating cholesterol levels via the reverse cholesterol transport pathway.
Member of the mentoring faculty for the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program (Cancer Biology Track).
