Scholarena Journal of Cardiology (SAJC) Dr.Donna Wang, is Professor of Medicine, Neuroscience Program, and Cell
and Molecular Biology Program at Michigan State University. She also
directs the Division of Nanomedicine and Molecular Intervention in
Department of Medicine at MSU. she is an Established Investigator of
American Heart Association, a Fellow of the American Heart Association
Council for High Blood Pressure Research, and a Fellow of Cardiovascular
Section of the American Physiological Society.
Dr. Wang's research interests lie in molecular intervention,
neuroscience, cardiovascular medicine, drug discovery, and
nanomedicine. Her laboratory discovered that the transient receptor
potential (TRP) channels play a central role in the “salt
pathway”. These molecules signal a particularly exciting breakthrough,
as they are capable of protecting tissues/organs from inflammation and
injury. Specifically, data from her laboratory indicate that TRP
channels, activated by novel lipid metabolites, may serve as distinct
molecular sensors detecting microâ€environmental changes occurred under
pathophysiologic conditions including hypertension, myocardial
infarction, and metabolic disorders including diabetes and obesity.
