Biography
Prof/Dr Peter Krippeit-Drews. has received his PhD in Biology Free University of Berlin Currently, he is working as Professor in Tubingen University. His research has included Insect endocrinology, embryonal pharmacology of teratogenic drugs, transepithelial transport potentials of crab gills, tonus fibers of the frog's skeletal muscles, electrophysiology of the vascular muscle cells of the rat aorta, physiology and pathophysiology of the cells of the pancreas, beta-cell physiology, type-2 diabetes mellitus, ion channels as drug targets, signalling pathways, beta-cell apoptosis, knock-out mouse models. He have authored The Angiotensin-(1–7)/Mas Axis Improves Pancreatic β-Cell Function in Vitro and in Vivo research articles/books.
