Research Summary
Our research
program focuses on the characterization of signaling pathways and
cellular organelles in the heart, with a particular interest on
alterations of subproteomes during myocardial ischemic injury.
Since 1992, this research program has authored 90 manuscripts in
cardiac cell signaling and myocardial ischemic injury. The
functional proteomic approaches we employ have provided key
information pertaining to the proteomic basis of diseased cardiac
phenotypes, and enabled a holistic portrait of multiple molecules
and pathways in parallel. The proteomic delineation combined with
genetic interrogations has been effective to gain pathogenic
insights in heart diseases. Dr. Peipei Ping, the Director of our
research program, is the principal investigator of an NHLBI
Program Project Award on Myocardial Ischemic Injury and
Protection. For additional information please visit our website at
