Excited to announce the final versions of my paper on the role of the internal elastic lamina in resistance arteries and my review on pannexins in the vasculature are out! Thank you to the co-authors for your great work! Links below

Thanks to @UVACVRC for the shoutout! Happy National Postdoc Appreciation Week 🎉

Arterial Myocyte Pannexin 1 Channel Controls Vascular Reactivity in Diabetic Hyperglycemia | Circulation Research BACKGROUND: Diabetic hyperglycemia promotes vasoconstriction by activating an ATP-dependent P2Y11L (P2Y11-like receptor)/AC5 (adenylyl cyclase 5)/AKAP5 (A-kinase anchoring protein 5)/PKA (protein kina...

The official release of our manuscript examining arterial myocyte Panx1 role in diabetic vascular dysfunction is out! Massive effort to uncover new mechanisms underlying vascular disease. Power of science! @ucdavis.bsky.social, @ucdavispharm.bsky.social

Grateful to have been a part of this exciting story!

Congratulations!

Nitrosation of CD36 Regulates Endothelial Function and Serum Lipids | Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology BACKGROUND: During obesity, endothelial cells (ECs) become lipid laden, leading to endothelial dysfunction. We tested posttranslational modification on CD36 that may regulate EC lipid accumulation. ...

Some of the strong work by Melissa Luse rounding her PhD. Love the story, and I think it opens up some new ideas in endothelial lipid handling and overall questions roles for NO…
