• Research Map & Interests

Pediatric Inherited Diseases Research Center intends to achieve its vision in research areas by implementing the following strategies:

1- Epigenetic study of the methylation pattern of Retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRA) and LEP (Leptin) genes in breastfed infants compared to infants fed with powdered milk and supplements

2-Epigenetic study of the index of insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP-2) in relation to serum levels of APO-E, APO-B, and APOB / APOA1 in breastfed infants compared with infants fed with powdered milk and supplements

3- Development of microbiota knowledge

4- Starting new research in the field of metabolic syndrome

5-Evaluation of the importance of the role of the intestinal microbiome in inhibiting the immune system in colorectal cancer and the stimulatory effects of its surface proteins in the development or spread of colon cancer and stimulation of tumorigenic signals

6. Screening of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) at the food supply level

7- Using new genetic methods such as NGS in the study of inherited metabolic diseases in infants.

8- Preparing review articles in line with the major research goals and dissertations conducted in research centers in order to increase the scientific production of the center

9- Preparing research projects or research articles with the cooperation of other universities and scientific-executive centers to reduce costs in the current situation and the center's relationship with other centers to use the existing potentials of the country.     

10- Completing unfinished projects with the maximum participation of research team members

11- Using non-governmental organizations in the field of health to conduct applied research projects focusing on lifestyle changes in the fight against cancer using modern diagnostic and therapeutic methods, counseling, and screening of the disease at the lowest cost for the patient to achieve diagnostic biomarkers
