About Anthony Zulli
Dr Zulli joined Victoria University after finishing his NHMRC Peter Doherty Fellowship in 2009 (2006-2009, University of Melbourne, Austin Health). Dr Zulli's research focuses on the mechanisms that cardiovascular disease risk factors (homocysteine/cholesterol) cause endothelial dysfunction. His research has an emphasis on the nitric oxide pathway, oxidative stress and the renin-angiotensin system, and has a recent interest on reducing kidney disease caused by cancer treatments. Dr Zulli has been funded by the National Heart Foundation and NHMRC, as well as internal VU grant schemes. His pharmacology laboratory is equipped with 80 organ bath units, were he studies blood vessels from the microvasculature (60 micron diameter) to large conduit arteries (2-4mm diameter). His approved research utilises rabbits, rats, guinea pigs and mice.
His work has recently shown that the cardiovascular risk factor homocysteine could affect the efficacy of antioxidant therapy, and his collaborative work has shown that hormones released from bone can 'talk' to blood vessels during stress, improving their function.
He has published over 80 manuscripts, attracted over $1 million in funds and collaborates with local, national and international scientists.
