Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Rahul Sharma studies immune responses and their role in disease, with a particular focus on T-regulatory cells, T-follicular helper cells, and the cytokine Interleukin-2. His research investigates how these immune components are involved in conditions such as inflammation, autoimmunity, and graft-versus-host disease.

Sharma's work also examines the tumor microenvironment and immune checkpoints in obesity-associated breast cancer. He has investigated the function of Pannexin-3 in protecting against vascular oxidative stress and the role of ST2+ T-regulatory cells in renal inflammation and fibrosis following ischemic kidney injury. His recent publications utilize spatial transcriptomics to map cellular interactions during acute kidney injury and to generate a complement atlas of mouse AKI. He also has research on immunoglobulin profiles and lymphocyte subsets in preterm neonates.
