Interest
My
current area of interest focuses on the metabolic bases for the
the early events in atherosclerosis, in particular, the role of
high density lipoproteins (HDL) in the development of the fatty
streak. Using a genetic approach, as well as molecular and
biochemical techniques, we investigate the dynamics between
lipoproteins and cells of the artery wall in the disease process.
