Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Janashrit Shrestha's research focuses on understanding and mitigating the impact of bacterial infections, specifically *Clostridium perfringens*, in poultry. Their work investigates the role of bile acids in controlling virulence factors associated with *Clostridium perfringens*. In one study, Shrestha explored how a recombinant bile salt hydrolase enzyme enhanced the inhibitory effects of taurodeoxycholic acid against the pathogen's virulence. Another line of inquiry examines how the mechanistic target of rapamycin pathway is affected by *Clostridium perfringens* and how secondary bile acids, such as deoxycholic acid, can attenuate necrotic enteritis in chickens. This research contributes to the development of strategies for improving poultry health and reducing the incidence of bacterial diseases in food production systems. Shrestha's work has resulted in two publications and has garnered seven citations, with an h-index of 1.
