Area of general research interest:
- Extracellular matrix and leukocyte activation
- Immunology of inflammatory bowel disease
- Operative management of inflammatory bowel disease
Specific projects include:
- investigate the synthesis of hyaluronan and associated hyaluronan-binding proteins in human colon smooth muscle cells
- determine the mechanism by which un-activated mononuclear leukocytes engage unique hyaluronan structures
- understand the signaling and cellular processes that lead to activation of hyaluronan-bound mononuclear leukocytes
Investigators:
- Sudip Bandyopadhyay, Ph.D.
- Alana Majors, Ph.D.
- Hyujin Rho, M.S.
Collaborators:
- Carol de la Motte, Ph.D.
- Claudio Fiocchi, M.D.
Grant Support:
- NIH RO1 (Principal Investigator)
Title: The role of hyaluronan in inflammatory bowel disease. - NIH RO1 (Co-investigator)
Title: Cell interactions in the inflamed intestinal mucosa
