Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Joseph Asante's research focuses on the intersection of drug transport mechanisms and neurological disorders, particularly Alzheimer's disease. His work investigates the role of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates in influencing the risk and progression of Alzheimer's and related dementias. Asante has explored how P-gp affects the transendothelial transport of amyloid-beta peptide, a key protein implicated in Alzheimer's pathology.

Further research by Asante examines the potential of specific medications, such as ezetimibe, to mitigate Alzheimer's risk by interfering with protein interactions in model systems. He also investigates the structural and functional implications of mutations in viral proteins, such as the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, using predictive modeling. Asante has published six papers with 21 citations and holds an h-index of 3. He collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Steven W. Barger and Corey Nagel.
