Description
I'm interested in research on gastrointestinal (GI) pathophysiology. Research work was about neural regulation of GI motility and abnormalities resulting from defect in neurotransmission in the gut. Recent work focused on Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) where we investigated the potential therapeutic and mechanism of action of chitooligosaccharides in treatment of IBD in mice. Of particular interest, patients with IBD were found to share common symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)where patients of both diseases experienced irregular gut motility. Recently it was reported that IBD and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) are genitacally associated. So, i'd like to study the link between IBD and IBS in term of motility.
