Skip to main content Post-squalene Cholesterol Biosynthetic Pathways There has been an outstanding debate over the route of cholesterol biosynthesis since it was first discovered in the 1950s. Two alternative pathways have been proposed, the Bloch and Kandutsch-Russell pathways. Using deuterium water…

The Marciano laboratory investigates fundamental aspects of kidney development and regeneration, in both health and disease.

We study bacterial colonization of the intestinal tract, to understand how both benign and pathological bacteria affect their environment. Our long-term goal is to treat intestinal diseases by genetically engineering bacteria in vivo.

The Reinecker laboratory unravels and targets molecular mechanisms of key human genetic variants that cause chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer by creating novel genetic mouse and human organotypic model systems.

Urinary Tract Infections affect millions of women worldwide and can be a painful nuisance at best. For some women, they suffer from recurrent UTI's due to front-line antibiotics no longer being effective. What's worse is postmenopausal women are more than twice as likely to develop UTIs than women who have not yet gone through menopause. There aren't many options to exist for women who suffer from recurrent UTI's which is currently fueling the research of Dr. De Nisco and Dr. Zimmern here at UT Southwestern. At the moment, the funding support from the National Institute of Health and other funding institutions is limited. Therefore, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations to support research in this area through our lab efforts.
