- Area of Interest Transcription, Mitochondria and Metabolism
The focus of my research has always been on transcriptional regulation with a particular emphasis on the impact of cell signaling and post-transcriptional modification on global gene expression and chromatin remodeling.
Recently I have been interested in the role of mitochondria in the activation and regulation of the adipose tissue microenvironment in both physiological condition and metabolic disease progression. In particular, I am investigating the correlation between mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) instability with the regulation of the immune response and the metabolic reprogramming during cellular stress and aging.
