Research summary
AI-generated

Damu Sunilkumar's research focuses on natural plant-derived compounds (such as resveratrol, oxyresveratrol, and tamarixetin) and how they affect cancer cell behavior, inflammation, and enzymes that break down tissue (matrix metalloproteinases). Recent work also examines connections between gut bacteria, metabolic byproducts, and skin/immune conditions like psoriasis. This research combines lab experiments with computational (network-based) analysis to understand disease mechanisms and potential natural therapies.
