Harvard Medical School
ProfessorUniversity of Kentucky - Lexington, KY
I'm Professor in the Departments of Pharmacology and Neurology, Co-Chair of the UK Research Alliance for Reduction of Diabetes Associated Microvascular Dysfunction (ADAM) and the founding Director of The Research Center for Heathy Metabolism. My laboratory in collaboration with the University of Kentucky’s Alzheimer Disease (AD) Research Center and UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology identified amyloid-forming amylin secreted from the pancreas as a contributing factor to brain microvascular and AD pathologies, in both sporadic and early-onset, familial AD. Despa laboratory integrates biochemical investigations of human tissues with clinical data, physiological analyses and in vivo phenotyping using genetically engineered rodent models to delineate amylin-related nodal regulatory points at the blood-brain interface that could guide therapeutic strategies for reducing/ reversing amylin-mediated pathologies.
