OverviewAI-generated summary
Aytan Musayeva investigates mechanisms underlying ocular surface disorders and retinal injury. Her research utilizes mouse models to explore the role of neuropeptides and other signaling molecules in conditions such as dry eye disease, corneal injury, and retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Musayeva has published work on the effects of substance P, calcitonin gene-related peptide, and alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone on ocular tissues. Additionally, her research examines the protective effects of compounds like betulinic acid and resveratrol against retinal damage. Her work also characterizes the effects of chemical exposure, such as nitrogen mustard, on corneal integrity. Musayeva's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 14, with 45 total publications and 689 total citations.
