Veterinary Tech.<\/p>\n<p>Previous Position: UCLA DLAM Assisted Reproductive Technologies Lab<\/p>\n<p>I transferred to the Arispe Lab as a Staff Research Associate in May 2010 after 9 years of working for the Division of Laboratory Animal Medicine at UCLA. There I used to manage the Assisted Reproductive Technologies Lab for mice where I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Arispe and some of her amazing students. My current role in the lab involves a variety of tasks like getting new lab members set up with all of the required training, helping to maintain and update the animal use protocols, assisting lab members with various animal techniques, and cryopreserving mouse embryos just to name a few. My goals are to become proficient in ES cell culture and novel transgenic technologies to be able to provide additional support to our lab and contribute more to the scientific community as a whole while continuing to maintain my firm ideals in humane animal use in research. I feel blessed to have been given this incredible opportunity to work with Dr. Arispe and some of UCLA\u2019s brightest that also share my compassion and respect for all life whether for our mice or fellow human beings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 29.5091%;vertical-align: top\">\n<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full

My current projects address two major tumor microenvironmental aspects and its therapeutic potential: a) the importance of blood vessels for\u00a0immune\u00a0response and immune escape of solid tumors. b) Mechanisms how cancer cells overcome the endothelial barrier during extravasation and distant metastasis. By applying tumor models in-vitro and in-vivo, as well as high throughput screenings and functional genomics, we are seeking new strategies to prevent cancer metastasis and tumor progression, with the ultimate goal of clinical translation.

My research focused on the pathogenic effects of venous malformation-causative mutations in the tyrosine kinase receptor TIE2. I am very interested in the molecular bases of human disease, particularly (cardio-) vascular disease. To gain deeper insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying vascular development, I joined the Arispe lab in early 2015. My current project includes the characterization of vascular malformations and tumors and the study of novel pathways involved in vascular development. I am specifically interested in exploring the cross-talk of genes found to be associated with the emergence of vascular anomalies, in order to determine their function in maintenance of endothelial homeostasis.<\/p>\n<h4>Publications<\/h4>\n<p>Uebelhoer, M., Iruela-Arispe, M.L. 2016. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S1537189116301471?via%3Dihub\" rel=\"noopener\">Cross-talk between signaling and metabolism in the vasculature<\/a>. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Vasc Pharmaco<\/span>l. 83:4-9.<\/p>\n<p>Jelinek, D., Flores, A., Uebelhoer, M., Pasque, V., Plath, K., Iruela-Arispe, M.L., Christofk, H.R., Lowry, W.E., Coller, H.A. 2018. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jove.com\/video\/57760\/mapping-metabolism-monitoring-lactate-dehydrogenase-activity-directly\" rel=\"noopener\">Mapping Metabolism: Monitoring Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity Directly in Tissue<\/a>. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">J Vis Exp<\/span>.

Such cells surprisingly accumulate in the innermost layer of descending aortas in non-diseased adult mice. However, these immune cells are not found in the descending aortas of young mice. These findings raise questions about the significance of the intima-resident immune cells to cardiovascular disease as a result of aging. It is also worth noting that the intima contains a monolayer of endothelial cells, which again present a possible relationship with these immune cells. Our goal is to determine the functionality of the intima-resident immune cells and their relevance to cardiovascular disease and\/or endothelial cells, if there is any.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 27.5321%;vertical-align: top\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-835\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-250x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-250x300.png 250w, https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-768x922.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-858x1030.png 858w, https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-1250x1500.png 1250w, https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-587x705.png 587w, https:\/\/sites.lifesci.ucla.edu\/mcdb-arispe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2018\/02\/WINNIE-LIU2-450x540.png 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 78.7939%;vertical-align: top\">\n<div class=\"details col-sm-12 col-md-9\">\n<h4><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Winnie Liu<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"mailto:wliu193@gmail.com\">wliu193@gmail.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Arispe Lab: \u00a0Winter 2018<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Major: \u00a0MCDB<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I am currently studying the effects of cholesterol on endothelial homeostasis under my mentor, Hanna Sunshine.
