Charles P. Rabolli

Charles P. Rabolli's research focuses on the molecular biology of heart disease, particularly how RNA modifications (chemical tags on RNA molecules that affect gene expression) and specific proteins regulate heart muscle cell function, metabolism, and repair. Recent work examines how the heart responds to stress such as reduced blood flow (ischemia), aging, and exercise, with attention to potential gene-therapy approaches for protecting heart tissue. The work spans basic mechanisms in cardiomyocytes (heart muscle cells) as well as some tissue-engineering and biomaterials projects.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from about 1 paper per year in 2017-2018 to a peak of 6 in 2022 and 2024, with an average of roughly 3-4 papers per year over the last five years.
