Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Narasimhappagari Jagadeesh's research focuses on investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying various diseases and exploring potential therapeutic interventions. His work has examined the role of specific lectins, such as those from *Aspergillus niger* and *Adenia hondala*, in inducing apoptosis and necrosis in cancer cells, suggesting their potential as anti-cancer agents. Jagadeesh has also investigated the pathogenesis of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and glioblastoma. His publications explore the contribution of genetic factors like APOEε4 and inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β to Alzheimer's neuropathogenesis, and the potential therapeutic effects of IL-1β receptor antagonists and other compounds in glioblastoma. He has also studied the role of fungal lectins in causing infections, such as mycotic keratitis. Jagadeesh's research network includes collaborators from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including W. Sue T. Griffin, Srinivas Ayyadevara, and Meenakshisundaram Balasubramaniam, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications.
