Keywords: Dr. Allaham research interest focuses on the challenges and advancements in managing valve heart disease patients undergoing complex coronary interventions, particularly in cases of double valve disease and intricate percutaneous procedures. This area of study is critical as it addresses the complexities involved in treating patients with dual valve conditions, where traditional surgical options may present significant risks or limited effectiveness. His work aims to explore and enhance percutaneous techniques, such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and mitral valve repair/replacement, to improve patient outcomes and procedural safety. By investigating novel approaches, optimizing patient selection criteria, and advancing imaging and device technologies, he seek to refine these interventions and ensure they offer long-term benefits for patients with complex coronary and valve disease.

Keywords: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a hereditary disorder that affects 1:500 to 1:1000 people and is characterized by fluid-filled cysts that arise from renal tubules. ADPKD results from mutations in either the PKD1 or PKD2 gene, which encode the gene products polycystin 1 (PC1) and polycystin 2 (PC2), respectively. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) expression and activity are increased in Pkd1 mutant renal epithelial cells suggesting that it may play a role in cyst formation. We are studying role of PC1, PC2 and HDAC6 in cyst formation in ADPKD.

Keywords: Our laboratory discovered a novel antiproliferative factor (APF) glycopeptide that is made specifically by bladder epithelial cells from IC/PBS patients and whose biological activity is detectable in urine from approximately 95% of IC/PBS patients. APF induces changes in expression of certain epithelial cell proteins, decreases tight junction formation, increases paracellular permeability, and profoundly inhibits the proliferation of normal bladder epithelial cells in vitro; these same changes have been confirmed in cells grown from IC/PBS patient biopsies as compared to normal controls, suggesting that APF may contribute to the pathogenesis of IC/PBS. Inhibition of APF activity or production may therefore be useful for the development of therapies for this disorder.
