"Regulation of gastric and osteoclast acidification by Snx10"
The specific aims to be addressed in this project are: 1) Determine the cellular mechanisms by which Snx10 regulates osteoclast function. 2) Determine the role of osteoclastic expression of Snx10 on bone homeostasis in vivo. 3) Determine the role of gastric expression of Snx10 on bone homeostasis in vivo.

"Effects of Ekso-assisted gait training on Bone Health and Quality of Life: A Randomized Clinical Trial"
The goals of this project are to 1) determine whether exoskeleton-assisted gait training increases bone strength in the paralyzed lower extremity and 2) determine whether exoskeleton-assisted gait training improves quality of life after SCI. Secondarily, to determine whether gait training improves the following related outcomes and mediators of quality of life: mood, pain, and cortical activity of related emotional networks in the brain.

Research Summary

Research Summary/Interests

Dr. Ellingson’s primary research focus is to detect biomechanical and imaging based biomarkers of spinal health. The diverse causes of back and neck pain lead to difficulties in differential diagnosis, hindering patient-specific individualized treatment. Dr. Ellingson’s multifaceted research strategy aims to overcome these limitations by identifying aberrant spinal motion patterns, quantifying intervertebral disc pathology, and isolating neuromuscular responses to pain. Ultimately, by integrating these approaches he strives to assess and enhance an individual’s functional ability in an effort to improve their quality of life.

Research Summary

Dr. Fonkoue's current research aims to determine if post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in women causes vascular, neural, and hormonal changes linked to an increased risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. She has previously published data highlighting the autonomic dysregulation present in PTSD patients.

Research Summary

Research

Current research interests and long-term scientific goals of the laboratory revolve around the plasticity and regeneration of skeletal muscle, in efforts to mitigate the devastating functional limitations of limb salvage and traumatic muscle injuries. The laboratory examines the musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems in efforts to understand and develop effective strategies to address the deleterious effects of complex traumatic muscle injuries, namely volumetric muscle loss.

Areas of interest

Degrees

2020 Post-doctoral Fellowship, Clinical Neurosciences, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB

2016 PhD, Biomedical Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL

2013 DPT, Physical Therapy, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL

2008 BS, Biomedical Engineering, University of Rochester, Rochester, NY

My overall research goal is to maximize recovery following a neurologic injury such as stroke. A key challenge in neurorehabilitation is a poor understanding of the specific impairments an individual may have, which makes it difficult to target therapies. I use robotics to measure specific motor and sensory impairments, and then link these impairments with neuroimaging findings. I am specifically interested in bilateral coordination in both adults who have had a stroke as well as children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy due to a stroke early in development.

One of my areas of research will focus on developing robotic assessments of bilateral coordination. Bilateral coordination encompasses a wide range of tasks, from picking up a box with both hands to stabilizing a jar with one hand while opening it with the other. Robotic assessments can allow us to pinpoint the specific areas of bilateral coordination that are impaired in individuals with stroke and cerebral palsy, and then relate these impairments with neuroimaging findings. This will lead to more targeted interventions to improve rehabilitation outcomes.

A second area of focus is in how bilateral arm use typically develops, and how it is impacted by an early lesion. Accelerometers can be worn on the wrists to quantify how much a child moves their arms in daily life. We can then develop interventions to promote the use of the weaker arm in children with early lesions. Encouraging early use of the affected arm can drive positive neuroplastic changes to improve outcomes in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.

Research Summary

The Cardiovascular Research and Rehabilitation Laboratory (CRRL) has a primary interest to investigate 1) factors that contribute to the greater cardiovascular risk in women after menopause and 2) exercise intolerance in those with cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders. In addition, we aim to develop novel treatment strategies to improve cardiorespiratory regulation and decrease cardiovascular disease.

The CRRL uses a multi-system approach to understand blood pressure regulation as the maintenance of blood pressure at rest and during exercise involves a highly redundant and sophisticated integration of multiple systems with the goal of maintaining homeostasis. Our laboratory uses several techniques to quantify autonomic function and limitations to exercise in healthy and clinical populations, such as those with cardiovascular diseases and muscular dystrophy. Techniques in our lab to quantify autonomic function are muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), which is the gold standard for measuring sympathetic activity, electrocardiography, heart rate variability, baroreflex function and venous occlusion plethysmography to measure limb blood flow. Our laboratory is also interested in limitations to exercise, including cardiopulmonary and skeletal muscle factors in healthy and clinical populations. We conduct maximal/peak oxygen consumption (VO_2max/peak)tests as well as fatigability tests isolated to single muscle groups. We aim to understand the contributing factors of autonomic dysregulation to cardiovascular disease and identify optimal treatment strategies to reduce cardiovascular risk and mortality in adults.

Current projects

Mechanisms of increased cardiovascular disease risk in women who enter menopause premature or early
Influence of menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes and sleep disturbance, to autonomic blood pressure regulation.
Mechanisms of exercise intolerance in clinical populations including muscular dystrophy and heart failure
The contribution of locomotor muscle afferents (group III and IV) to central drive and cardiorespiratory responses during exercise in both healthy adults and those with heart failure
Use of neuromodulation to improve blood pressure in clinical populations.

Research Summary

Dr. Lowe's laboratory investigates cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle deterioration that occur with age, injury, and disease. We are particularly interested in how the loss of estradiol causes muscle weakness and impaired regeneration of injured muscles. Our studies point toward the deterioration of myosin function and satellite cells as two of the culprits. We are highly collaborative in muscular dystrophy research having published with eight other UMN muscle biologists. Our studies often have a flavor of exercise science and preventative medicine as well as rehabilitation. Trainee research experiences are enriched by the collaborative nature of our work that intersects muscle research from fields of biochemistry, physiology, biophysics, engineering, molecular and stem cell biology, pathology, endocrinology, immunology, and bone biology.

Research Summary

Dr. Ludewig's objective is to investigate biomechanical factors contributing to musculoskeletal dysfunction, in order to refine current clinical diagnosis and treatment approaches and develop novel scientifically founded rehabilitation interventions. The current research plan includes development and testing the effectiveness of biomechanically based rehabilitation strategies for improving shoulder function and reducing pain and disability in persons with pathologies related to abnormal movement patterns. Currently, in-vivo 3D motion and muscle activity data is collected from healthy and symptomatic subjects and integrated with state of the art shoulder models derived from imaging data. Dr. Ludewig's past and ongoing work is identifying mechanics of the full shoulder complex, identifying kinematic mechanisms of shoulder and foot dysfunction, quantifying effects of motion deviations on mechanical impingement risk to the rotator cuff tendons, and assessing the effectiveness of rehabilitation interventions including exercise programs.
