Studies in our laboratory are focused around various cellular and molecular mechanisms by which micronutrients such as selenium and other products of natural origin alter the host response and immune function in response to oxidative stress caused by environmental toxicants and pathogens.
Current projects in the lab
- Modulation of inflammatory signaling pathways by selenium
- Effect of endogenous and exogenous fatty acid metabolites on leukemia stem cells
- Epigenetic regulation by antioxidants
