Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Preeti Nagar investigates molecular mechanisms underlying cancer progression and plant stress responses. Her research on human breast cancer cells focuses on the role of the Non-POU Domain-Containing Octomer-Binding (NONO) protein in promoting tumorigenicity and activating key signaling pathways, including Akt/MAPK/β-catenin. Nagar also studies nonsense-mediated mRNA decay as a mediator of tumorigenesis and explores strategies for targeting oncogenic splicing, such as in EZH2. In parallel, her work in plant biology examines the function of phytosulfokine receptors, like OsPSKR15 in rice and AtPSKR1 in Arabidopsis thaliana, in regulating abscisic acid responses, drought stress tolerance, and leaf senescence, often involving reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling. Nagar’s research network includes collaborators such as Mohammad Alinoor Rahman and Md. Rafikul Islam from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. She has an h-index of 11 and has published 22 papers with 431 citations.
