Research interests
- My Research Interests Focus On The Molecular Events Underlying Neurological Diseases. In My Studies I Concentrate On Three Diseases: Parkinson
- Alzheimer
- Cerebral Stroke. The Long-Term Goal To Identify Potential New Drug Targets For The Development Of Causative Treatments. These Are Progressive Diseases Of The Nervous System Involving Damage Or Loss Of Neurons In The Brain. The Causes Of The Diseases Are Unknown But Recent Evidence Suggests A Multifactorial Origin Involving Genetic
- Environmental Factors. Considerable Efforts Have Been Made To Determine The Cellular Mechanisms That Might Underlie The Cell Death In These Diseases. Over The Years
- Several Pathogenic Hypotheses Have Been Proposed
- Including Oxidative Stress
- Apoptosis
- Excitotoxicity
- Inflammation
- Mitochondrial Dysfunction. However
- Up To Now It Is Not Known Which Of These Metabolic Pathways Participate In The Process Of Cell Death
- If
- How They Interact
- Which Genes Are Regulating This Complex Network
Biography
- Dr. Ishrat working as a Research scientist at University of Georgia, Augusta, GA.
- My research revolves around the importance of vascular protection in the acute stroke period to improve outcome of ischemic stroke.
- Also, I am trying to identify tactics for decreasing vascular damage after ischemic stroke in an attempt to develop new therapies for stroke patients.
