Biography
Dr. Mohammed Nayeem is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology & Pharmacology, Center for Cardiovascular & Respiratory Sciences, School of Medicine, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV 26506, USA. He is also an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmaceuticals and Pharmacological Sciences, School of Pharmacy, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV 26506, USA. He obtained his B.Sc., M.Sc. and PhD in Life Science/Biochemistry/Immunology from Osmania University, Hyderabad, India. He worked in Medical College of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, VA, USA, Brody School of Medicine, East Carolina University, NC, USA and NIEHS/NIH, NC, USA. Recently, he got his R01 funded as a Principal Investigator with excellent score from NHLBI/NIH (2013) on Role of Cyp2j-epoxygenases, sEH and PPARs in adenosine-induced vascular response. Also he got his other R01 funded as a CO-Investigator with also excellent score from NHLBI/NIH (2008) on Role of CYP P450s in the Regulation of Vascular Tone through Adenosine Receptors. Dr. Nayeem has got many other awards and honors. He has published many research papers in reputed and peer-reviewed journals related to cardiovascular pharmacology, cardiovascular physiology and in Molecular Cellular Biochemistry, Naunyn Schmiedebergs Archives Pharmacology, Journal Molecular Cellular Cardiology, Antioxidant Redox Signaling, etc. He is member of various societies including American Heart Association, American Physiology Society, International Society of Heart Research (American Section), American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, Microcirculatory Society. He also reviewed many articles on Ad hoc basis related to American Journal Physiology (Heart and Circulatory Physiology), Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, American Journal of Hypertension, International Journal of Toxicology, European Journal of Pharmacology, Nutrition, Metabolism & Cardiovascular Diseases, Drug Metabolism and Disposition, Vascular Pharmacology, Neuropharmacology. His research interest covers many aspects of Cardiovascular Pharmacology including Role of adenosine receptors in the regulation of vascular tone through cyp-epoxygenases, soluble epoxide hydrolase and omega hydroxylase; the regulation of vascular tone through the generation of EETs, DHETs and 20-HETE; the regulation of vascular tone through the adenylyl cyclase cAMP and PKA signaling; the regulation of vascular tone through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs); the regulation of vascular tone through ATP-sensitive (KATP) channels.
