I intent to better understand the mechanisms related to vascular complications in diabetes. I have made a very interesting finding that growth factor deficiency or resistance by the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 can cause cell apoptosis and contribute to early changes in diabetic retinopathy. The goal of my research is to investigate potential target of SHP-1 and other protein tyrosine phosphatases in vascular complications of diabetes such as diabetic nephropathy, peripheral arterial diseases and atherosclerosis.
