This Health Research Program opportunity is with Dr. Yanlin Wang, Department of Medicine.
Project Description: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by tubular epithelial cell injury and fibrosis of the kidney. The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of CKD are not fully understand. The summer research project will examine the role of TRIM28, a transcriptional and epigenetic factor, in tubular epithelial cell injury and regeneration. Molecular, cell, genetic, and pharmacological approaches will be used in this research project. Students can learn a wide range of biological techniques such as cell culture, cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell differentiation, PCR, real time RT-PCR, Western blot, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, histology, animal models of kidney disease.
