Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jennifer F Jolivert"
- Jennifer F Jolivert's recent research primarily focuses on the role of taste receptors in mediating apoptosis and inflammation responses in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and airway epithelial cells, highlighting their potential as therapeutic targets.
- Her studies reveal that activation of bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) can induce cell apoptosis in HNSCC, while T1R sweet receptors enhance nitric oxide production, contributing to innate immune responses against pathogens in the airway epithelium.
- Jolivert's findings also suggest that T2R agonists, like diphenhydramine, may have therapeutic applications for nasal infections by increasing ciliary beat frequency and antibacterial activities, positioning taste receptors as promising targets for drug repurposing.
