Mechanisms of metabolic remodelling in obesogenic/diabetic cardiomyopathy
Obesity is a worldwide public health concern and is one of the co-morbidities associated with the development of type 2 diabetes. Read more
Investigate the novel therapeutic potential for treating heart failure in diabetes.
Heart failure is the most common cause of mortality in diabetes patients, but current diabetes therapies have a limited impact on the incidence of heart failure in diabetic populations. Read more
Assessing therapeutic strategies to target the counter-regulatory renin-angiotensin system in cardiovascular disease
Project outline: . The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is a hormonal cascade mediating cardiovascular function. The RAS is key to the development of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac remodelling in hypertension and heart failure and atherosclerosis. Read more
PMCA1 – a potential target for the treatment of heart failure
Our research group is focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the development and progression of heart failure and in doing so identifying potential new targets for its treatment. Read more
Cellular protein quality control in diabetes-associated heart disease: The insight into mechanisms and therapeutic potentials
Cardiovascular complications are the leading causes of diabetes mortality. With the exception of vascular and valvular injuries, diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a distinct myocardial disease, which is characterised by abnormal cellular metabolism and defects in organelles function, leading to impaired cardiac function. Read more
Epigenetic regulation in heart failure and cardiac sudden death
A large proportion of heart failure patients die from cardiac sudden death (SCD), a direct result of lethal ventricular arrhythmias, which is the principal cause of mortality from heart disease worldwide and remains a major unresolved public health problem. Read more
