Research and Practice Interests

Define the mechanisms by which bacteria infect the intestine, the biochemical mechanisms whereby the infectious organisms modify intestinal function are examined, bacterial enterotoxins, toxin structure and chemistry, the interactions of these toxins and intestinal receptors and the coupling of receptor occupancy to intestinal secretion and malfunction, purified E. coli Hea-Stable Enterotoxin (ST), demonstrate the existence of receptors on intestnal epithelial cells, shown that activation of these receptors produces Cyclic GMP, which results in intestinal secretion and diarrhea, cloning the cDNA for this receptor system (GC-C) as well as the gene, characterizing the regulation of gene expression, produced mice lacking the gene for GC-C and currently characterizing the physiological and pathophysiological consequences of the lack of this receptor system.
