Author Information
Jan F. C. Glatz is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Department of Genetics & Cell Biology, Faculty of Health, Medicine & Life Sciences at Maastricht University, located in the Netherlands. His research primarily focuses on the mechanisms of cellular fatty acid uptake and the metabolic modulation therapy in cardiac disease. Through his extensive work, he has significantly contributed to our understanding of lipid metabolism and its implications for cardiac health.
Research Contributions
Jan F. C. Glatz has made substantial contributions to the field of genetics and cell biology, with a particular focus on lipid metabolism. His recent work includes exploring the role of CD36 (SR-B2) as a master regulator of cellular fatty acid homeostasis, investigating the mechanisms behind myocardial lipid-induced insulin resistance, and the potential therapeutic targets for preventing hypertrophy-induced alterations in cardiac contractile properties. Notably, his research also delves into the endosomal mTOR-v-ATPase axis and its role in rescuing the heart from lipid overload-induced dysfunction.
