Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Alfiya Momin"
- Alfiya Momin's recent research focuses on the pathogenesis and therapeutic interventions related to pulmonary fibrosis, particularly exploring how peptidyl arginine deiminase-4 (PAD-4) inhibitors can mitigate the disease's progression by modulating neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).
- A significant part of Momin's work includes investigating the implications of litchi fruit consumption, linking outbreaks of acute encephalopathy in malnourished children to nutritional factors in litchi-growing regions, thereby addressing public health concerns.
- Momin emphasizes the role of NETosis in inflammatory diseases through her research on DNase-based therapies, highlighting the potential for novel treatments to target pathogenic inflammation mediated by neutrophils and their extracellular traps.
