Peter Quesenberry's Biography



Peter Quesenberry, Professor of Medicine, The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University

Dr Peter Quesenberry is a hematologist/oncologist with a long history of work on stem cell biology and characteristics of the stem cell, especially with regard to cell cycle transit. More recently his work has focused on extracellular vesicles and their capacity to alter cell fate and to restore injured tissue. Dr Quesenberry is the Paul Calabresi, MD Professor in Oncology and Director of Hematology/Oncology Research at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.

Extracellular vesicles from mice with monocrotaline induced pulmonary hypertension can induce pulmonary hypertension in normal irradiated mice and the relevant cellular inducers are endothelial progenitors. Vesicles from mesenchymal stem cells can reverse the induced pulmonary hypertension and low dose irradiation to deplete endothelial progenitors also reverses pulmonary hypertension in these models.
