Research
We recently discovered the different responses of related outbred SW and inbred FVB stocks of mice to the causative agent of transmissible murine colonic hyperplasia, Citrobacter rodentium. After biological characterization of the model of fatal colitis in FVB mice, I'm currently studying the host factors determining susceptibility to C. rodentium infection in colitis-prone and colitis-resistant animals. The results obtained from Microarray data are verified at different levels (real-time PCR, validation experiments, etc...). My other interests include studying genomic instability in murine colons, investigating the effect of bacterial infection in base excision repair deficient mice and other projects related to colon carcinogenesis.
