We use mouse models of pediatric bone sarcomas and melanoma to a) determine the molecular pathways in tumor endothelium that regulate the vascular response to exercise; b) determine how the anti-tumor immune response is changed by exercise; c) determine whether exercise and diet modifications can be used to protect against chemotherapy-induced cardiac toxicity; d) identify potential therapeutic targets in tumor endothelium to induce tumor vessel normalization; e) determine how aerobic exercise affects tumor metastasis. Additionally, we use mouse models of veno-occlusive disease (VOD), which is frequently fatal for stem cell transplant patients, to delineate the role of endothelium in VOD. We are a largely translational lab, and collaborate closely with clinicians in order to perform clinical trials in which cancer patients participate in exercise studies. Rotation projects in this lab will likely include a combination of mouse work, immunohistochemical evaluation, and other molecular biology techniques.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Assistant Professor Pediatrics UT MD Anderson Cancer Center
