Research summary

Shady Estfanous studies molecular mechanisms underlying inflammation and immune-related diseases, with particular attention to inflammasomes (protein complexes that trigger inflammatory responses), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs, RNA molecules that regulate gene activity without producing proteins), and their roles in conditions such as multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, hepatitis C, and COVID-19. Recent work focuses on how specific lncRNA-microRNA-gene interaction networks might serve as biomarkers for diagnosing and predicting outcomes in neurological autoimmune diseases.
