Research Interests
Neurodegenerative diseases and especially Parkinson disease (PD) are my research interests. My current researches are focused on design and development of naturally-occurring polyphenols-based nanoparticles with the aim to modulate amyloid fibrillation process of peptides/proteins associated with amyloid-related neurological diseases. Investigation of the potency of these nanoparticles to protect mitochondria, as an organelle significantly involved in the onset and progress of neurodegenerative diseases, against detrimental effects of amyloid fibrils is my other major research interest. Another part of my researches is to study the therapeutic properties of these nanoparticles on the cellular and animal models of PD induced by rotenone.
