OverviewAI-generated summary

Isabel Powers investigates the role of extracellular vesicles derived from pancreatic tumors in promoting perineural invasion. Her research focuses on how these vesicles stimulate Schwann cells, a type of glial cell that supports neurons, to adopt a phenotype indicative of perineural invasion. Specifically, she has explored the signaling pathways involved, identifying Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) as key mediators in this process. Her work has been presented in abstracts and publications, with recent research continuing to explore these mechanisms in vitro.

Powers collaborates with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. These collaborations include Emory Gregory, Azemat Jamshidi‐Parsian, Robert J. Griffin, and Younghye Song. She has a total of four publications and an h-index of 2, reflecting recent activity in her research area.
