RESEARCH INTERESTS:
O2-vinylated diazeniumdiolates have been shown to be selectively metabolized by CYP450. Preliminary in vitro and in vivo data show that targeting NO to organs rich in these enzymes, such as the liver, may have therapeutic benefits. Using an amino acid-based prodrug approach, we are developing selective NO donors with good toxicological profiles. We are currently investigating the structure/activity relationships as well as the transport and metabolism of these prodrugs.
