Abstract
Abstract
Inducible heme oxygenase (HO)-1 catalyzes the breakdown of heme to biliverdin, iron and carbon monoxide (CO). CO binds to cytochrome c oxidase and alters mitochondrial redox balance and coordinately regulates mitochondrial quality control (MQC) during oxidant stress and inflammation. The hypothesis presented is that skeletal muscle HO-1/CO system helps modulate components in the MQC cycle during metabolic stress.Type

Heath Gasier
Dr. Gasier is a physiologist and nutritionist. His research is focused on understanding how breathing altered PO2 impacts cell physiology in the lung, brain, and skeletal muscle. Emphasis is placed on mitochondrial quality control (dynamics, mitophagy, and biogenesis) and bioenergetics. He uses in vivo and in vitro models, and employs an array of methods (e.g., confocal and electron microscopy, Seahorse respiration, immunoblotting, RT-qPCR, ELISA’s, isotope tracers, and 10X genomics) for hypothesis testing. The goal of his research is to improve the operational capacity of divers and safety of hyperoxia in hyperbaric and critical care medicine. Dr. Gasier believes in a hands-on mentoring approach and individualized training plans based on mentee’s aspirations. He is committed to lifetime learning and contributing to knowledge advancement.
