Research interests
- Our Primary Goal Is To Develop More Effective Chemotherapeutic Agents For Cancer Patients. Multidrug Resistance (Mdr) Represents A Major Obstacle To The Treatment Of Cancer
- And Understanding The Resistance Mechanisms
- Knowing How To Reverse The Resistance Hold The Promise Of Providing Insights That May Lead To Improvements In The Use Of Currently Available Anticancer Drugs. Our Laboratory Is Interested In The Molecular
- Cellular Pharmacology Of Anticancer Drugs
- Such As Drug Resistance Mechanisms
- Reversal Of Resistance Study
- New Drug Development. A Promise Of Our Research Program Is That Progress In The Chemotherapy Of Cancer Will Depend On Rational Combination Of Agents That Reduce The Function Of Plasma Membrane Transporters Such As P-Gp
- Abcg2
- Mrps
- And To Enhance The Actions Of Cytotoxic Drugs. In Collaboration With Many Researchers In Usa
- China
- Japan
- Canada
- Australia
- Egypt
- Studies In Our Laboratory Focus On Screening
- Identifying New Inhibitors Of Abc Transporters By In Vitro Membrane Vesicles Transport Assay System
- Cell Based Assay Systems. Another Research Direction Is To Study The Role Of Abc Transporters Family On The Detoxification Of Chemicals (Including Carcinogens
- Mutagens) Using Knock Out Mouse Models. In Addition
- I Have A Strong Scientific Writing
- Communication Skills (Grants
- Publications) As Well As Am Active In Public Service With Global
- Local Impact
