Líneas de Investigación:

Los campos de especialización en los cuales se inserta la investigación en el CMPL incluye disfunción vascular, reactividad vascular fetal, transporte de membrana y enfermedades del embarazo. En estas áreas de trabajo, se enmarca diferentes líneas de investigación las cuales incluyen: (a) papel de los receptores de adenosina como moduladores de la función vascular fetal, (b) papel de los receptores de insulina en la regulación del transporte de membrana de nucleósidos (expresión y actividad), (c) reactividad micro y macrovascular y el papel de arginasas y sintasas de óxido nítrico, y (d) lípidos y disfunción vascular fetal en la hipercolesterolemia materna suprafisiológica. El papel de insulina y expresión y rutas de señaliación de receptires de insulina A y B ha sido abordado en diabetes gestacional y preeclampsia, así como mecanismos de regulación de pH intracelular en condiciones de hipoxia en cánceres ginecológicos humanos.
