Profile
The laboratory investigates the use of MS-based metabolomics and how independent risk factors for type 2 diabetes evolve over time in developing insulin resistance. We also study regulation of PPAR gamma using miRNA as molecular switches in reducing adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia, since obesity and diabetes are highly associated due to interwoven molecular links.
