Abdel Aissat

Dr. Abdel Aissat is a researcher affiliated with the Department of ENT at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Paris. He is actively involved in molecular and genetic research related to cystic fibrosis, particularly focusing on CFTR protein function and chaperone-mediated correction of protein misfolding.

His research interests span Molecular Biology, Genetics, Protein Folding and Trafficking, and Chaperone Proteins, with a strong emphasis on developing therapeutic strategies for cystic fibrosis. His work integrates cellular and molecular approaches to understand and correct CFTR dysfunction.

The recent publications highlight a consistent focus on the role of heat shock proteins (particularly HspB5) in rescuing F508del-CFTR trafficking, and the clinical implications of prenatal ultrasound findings in multiethnic populations for cystic fibrosis diagnosis. These studies reflect a blend of basic science and translational research.
