Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Elizabeth G Plender"
Elizabeth G. Plender's recent research primarily focuses on the structural and genetic diversity of secreted mucins MUC5AC and MUC5B, using long-read sequencing techniques to characterize their variability across human and nonhuman primate haplotypes.
Her studies also investigate the epigenomic effects of albuterol treatment on airway epithelial cells in asthma patients, emphasizing the relationship between DNA methylation and drug response.
Additionally, Plender has explored the risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission in households with children who have asthma and allergies, aiming to understand the impact of these conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
