Demetra D. Christou
Texas A&M University, Assistant Professor
My research interests lie in investigating the mechanisms responsible for endothelial dysfunction, and in general, for alterations in cardiovascular-autonomic function with aging and obesity in humans. In addition, I'm interested in the effect of lifestyle interventions such as physical activity/exercise training and caloric restriction on cardiovascular-autonomic function

Lung innate host defense as mediated by surfactant proteins A and D in alveolar macrophages and Type II epithelial cells via the receptor SP-R210/Myo18A.  We study SP-R210/Myo18A-mediated mechanisms of  phagocytosis and signaling responses in mycobacterial and staphylococcal infections
