Grant Activity:
Understanding the adverse cardio-metabolic effects of glucocorticoids – the clinical and biological determinants
Purpose:
Cardio-metabolic diseases are leading causes of death. Obesity is a key risk factor for cardio-metabolic disease. Glucocorticoids are hormones that regulate key metabolic and immune functions. However, glucocorticoid excess increases risk of cardio-metabolic disease by inducing obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure. My program of research aims to identify mechanisms and characterise targets that may offer novel therapies to combat glucocorticoid-mediated obesity and cardio-metabolic disease.
