Raymond A. Sobel, M.D.
Professor of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study cellular and molecular mechanisms of immune-mediated injury in CNS tissues that are affected in multiple sclerosis (MS). We study: 1) tissues of mice with EAE using histology and immunohistochemistry, 2) cross-recognition of neurons by antibodies against myelin proteolipid protein epitopes, and a distinct oligodendrogliopathy induced in mice by the non-protein amino acid azetidine (Aze), (which is found in the human diet); Aze-induced abnormalities mimic those in MS patient CNS tissues

Elsa Sola
Instructor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsCirrhosis is a common condition and is associated with recurrent complications. Therapeutic options are limited and the management of complications has been similar for the past decades. The only definitive treatment is liver transplantation; however, this is limited by the number of organs and the risk of complications on the waiting list. Patients with cirrhosis present with profound immune disturbances, but to date there are no therapeutic strategies to restore immune responses.
Dr Sola’s research interest if focused on understanding the mechanisms of immune dysfunction in cirrhosis to guide the development of future therapeutic options. With her research background in Hepatology and Immunology, Dr Sola is using novel techniques to improve the understanding of cirrhosis progression. She is leveraging her skills in human organoids to develop cirrhosis-derived immune organoids as a platform for investigating mechanisms of immune dysfunction and screening new therapeutic options. -
