The Fuentes Lab combines dietary intervention strategies, lipid biochemistry, advanced fluorescent microscopy, membrane biophysics and lipidomics techniques to characterize how nanoscale changes to lipids and proteins in the tumor microenvironment influence immunosuppression and other disease processes. Our goal is to unravel the cellular and molecular basis of therapeutic resistance mechanisms in cancer to lay the groundwork for development of novel preventive and/or therapeutic strategies that target membrane organization.
