Anthony Wayne Orr · Shreveport, Louisiana
Dr. Anthony Wayne Orr's lab at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in Shreveport focuses on understanding and treating atherosclerosis, a major cause of cardiovascular disease. The lab investigates how cells interact with the extracellular matrix and how specific proteins influence inflammation and plaque stability. By exploring novel therapeutic strategies, the lab aims to develop targeted treatments that can both reduce dangerous inflammation and stabilize plaque in patients with cardiovascular disease.
