- Investigating the mechanisms of how a-ENaC inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation and migration
Research
The focus of my PhD research is to investigate the mechanisms through the alpha epithelial sodium channel (a-ENaC) that inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation and migration. Methods involved in this research include immunocytochemistry, western blotting, immunohistochemistry, calcium imaging and single-celled confocal microscopy.
