Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jessica R. Goree's research has investigated mechanisms of liver injury and fibrosis, particularly in response to toxic insults like carbon tetrachloride. Her work has explored the role of myofibroblasts and specific gene expression in the development of hepatic stellate cells, which are key players in fibrotic scarring of the liver. Goree has also examined changes in the pulmonary circulation associated with cirrhosis in animal models. In parallel, her research has touched upon purinergic signaling pathways in human liver cells and the genetic basis for diseases, including mutations in the NT5E gene and their impact on protein trafficking. Her publications include studies on cell line establishment, pathological changes in animal models, and the expression of mediators involved in cellular signaling and survival during disease states.
