Our mission
Our overarching aim is to understand the stress responses in the liver and their role in drug-induced liver injury, DILI. The stress response, PACOS, which we discovered, is induced by moderate oxidative stress and protects the liver cells from unnecessary cell death. Our goal is to characterize the molecular mechanisms of DILI by modulation of adaptive stress responses.
