 | Arthur C. Guyton Professor & Chair Director, Mississippi Center for Obesity Research Office: G251; (601) 984-1801 Lab: G253; (601) 984-1829 |
Areas of expertise
- General: Cardiovascular, renal and endocrine physiology
- Specific: Mechanisms of hypertension and target organ injury; obesity and insulin resistance; the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system; modeling and computer simulation of the cardiovascular-renal systems
Research methods and techniques
Genetically engineered mouse models; chronic instrumentation for long-term cardiovascular and renal studies in dogs, rats, and mice; 24-hr/day studies of metabolic functions (oxygen consumption, activity, energy expenditure, food intake, etc.) in mice and rats; imaging methods (e.g. echocardiography) for studying cardiac function; histology, morphmetric analyses, immunohistochemistry, and molecular biology methods for studying target organ injury and cytokine expression; isotope methods for measuring renal function.
