I perform large-scale mutational experiments characterizing the impacts of protein coding variants on cell function, including infectious diseases and immunity.
Ryota Matsuoka, PhD
Assistant ProfessorDepartment of Molecular MedicineLerner Research Institute, Cleveland ClinicCleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve UniversityEmail: matsuor@ccf.org
Research projects in the Matsuoka Lab aim to decode genetic programs controlling vascularization, vascular cell diversity, and barrier integrity in the central nervous system. We employ advanced genetic, imaging, and omics approaches to dissect these developmental mechanisms using the zebrafish in vivo model combined with human-derived endothelial cell culture in vitro. Our goal is to discover novel molecular targets from our basic science research and translate this knowledge into developing therapeutics that can repair vascular and neural abnormalities in neurological diseases.

Our research centers on how changes in the extracellular matrix results in dysfunctional heart development and resulting congenital heart defects. We utilize preclinical mouse models of congenital heart disease, cell culture, genomics, biochemistry, and proteomics to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying these diseases towards the development of therapeutic approaches. Our current major research focus is on the novel concept of inhibiting a protease that remodels fibrillin microfibrils in the aorta to identify a therapeutic for Marfan syndrome.
