OverviewAI-generated summary
Melissa Wild's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying retinal diseases, particularly diabetic retinopathy and ischemic retinopathies. Her work investigates the role of histone deacetylases (HDACs) and myeloid cells in the progression and resolution of these conditions. Wild has published on how the deletion of myeloid HDAC3 can promote efferocytosis, a cellular process that helps clear cellular debris, thereby ameliorating retinal ischemic injury. She also studies the involvement of CD5L in efferocytosis and the resolution of retinal ischemic injury, as well as how disrupting the CD47/SIRPα axis offers protection against traumatic optic neuropathy. Her research utilizes mouse models, including knockout mice, and involves proteomic analysis of aqueous humor to understand disease pathophysiology. Wild collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Abdelrahman Y. Fouda and Carol Morris, with whom she shares multiple publications.
