Expertise and Research Interests
|
|
Abnormal tissue architecture is associated with many forms of disease including cardiomyopathy and cancer. The Radice lab investigates the function of cadherins, a family of cell adhesion molecules, responsible for maintaining cell-cell interactions and communication under normal and pathological conditions. Gene targeted mouse models are used to understand the relationship between adherens junctions and gap junctions and how malfunction of these junctional complexes leads to sudden arrhythmic death.
