Control of Inflammatory Acidity in Mucosal Inflammation

Research project funded by the Veterans Affairs to study inflammatory acidity in mucosal inflammation related to IBD, aiming to identify new therapeutic targets for veterans.

Description

This project focuses on understanding the role of inflammatory acidification in mucosal inflammation, particularly in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It aims to investigate how extracellular pH changes influence intestinal epithelial cell function, barrier integrity, and inflammatory signaling, with the goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets to benefit veterans affected by IBD.
