AREAS OF RESEARCH
Dr. Seagrave's primary research activities focus on the structural, functional, and biochemical responses of the lung to air pollution constituents. She is particularly interested in the interactions between the cells of the immune system and the epithelium. Current projects include assessing the relative toxicity of emissions from vehicles with gasoline or diesel engines and elucidating the mechanisms by which cigarette smoke causes emphysema. Model systems include inhalation and intratracheal instillation in experimental animals, and exposure of cultured cells to suspended materials in conventional tissue culture and to aerosol materials in an air-liquid interface culture system.
