Scientific summary

Goal: My research interest is to investigate muscle development, signaling, and maintenance, by studying the biological role of sarcomeric and muscle associated proteins. I am interested in the molecular origins and pathways associated with the development and progression of human cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

Goal: DMD: calcium signaling through mdx mouse (CS7BL/10ScSn-mdx) showing lack of dystrophin. Approaches: cellular mechanisms of cardiac dystrophy by Ca2+ and Na+ influx pathways (RyR, TRP, NCX) in addition to intracellular and SR luminal Ca2+ concentrations
DCM: generation of the Obscurin and Obscurin-like knockout and studies of SR and mitochondria organizations and Ca2+ flux.
