The long-standing scientific focus of the Romer laboratory is molecular signaling in vascular injury, repair, and regeneration, with a special emphasis on post-translational modification by phosphorylation. Care has been taken over the past two decades to build a multidisciplinary team that incorporates expertise in the biochemistry, molecular biology, and mechanochemical signaling of cell adhesion, the cell biology of cytoskeletal organization, matrix biology, and regenerative medicine. A strong network of international and local collaboration and the outstanding efforts of students from the Biomedical Engineering, and Cell and Molecular Medicine programs at Johns Hopkins have supported a rich intellectually and ethnically diverse environment that has helped the lab to thrive.

Current and recent work includes the definition of mechanotransduction pathways in matrix assembly and cellular responses to microenvironmental geometry (separate grants funded by the Division of Materials Science Research, and by the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems, both at the National Science Foundation), molecular mechanisms of NO dysregulation and vascular dysfunction in cardiovascular disease (funded by NHLBI, the American Heart Association, the MedImmune Corporation, a T32 postdoctoral fellowship from the JHU Children’s Center, Gilead Sciences Research Scholars Program in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, Pearl M. Stetler Research Fund for Women, and Pulmonary Hypertension Association), and microvascular tissue engineering and biomimetic vascular grafts (funded by the Posen Foundation, Kley Dom Biomimetics, and NICHD).

Our multi-level studies focus on vasculopathy in development, pulmonary hypertension, and atherogenesis, and range from transcriptional regulation, to the biochemistry of post-translational modification (phosphorylation, neddylation, and ubiquitination), and proteasomal degradation, to real time imaging of subcellular trafficking, to whole tissue and organism work with a novel transgenic mouse line with human HDAC2 expression that is specific to the vascular endothelium.


Lewis H. Romer is a Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, Cell Biology, Biomedical Engineering and Pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He has worked at the interface between cell signaling and the matrix microenvironment for the past three decades, making seminal contributions to our understanding of interplay between non-receptor tyrosine kinases and rho-family GTPases in cell adhesion, mechanochemical coupling in extracellular matrix assembly, and extracellular matrix guidance of vasculogenesis. Dr. Romer and his present and former trainees are advancing the fields of vascular tissue engineering, and biomechanics.


Meghan Bernier is a faculty member in the Division of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine and attends in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. Her research interests include clinical and translational studies in pediatric pulmonary hypertension with the ultimate goal of improving care and outcomes for these patients. In the lab, her work focuses on endothelial dysfunction in the pulmonary vasculature using cell culture techniques and animal models of pulmonary hypertension.


Xing Chen is currently working on biomimetic pulmonary microsystem at Johns Hopkins Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine. He received his PhD degree in mechanical engineering from Chonnam National University, and then explored his diverse research interests in wireless sensing biomedical implant, implantable sensor packaging, and flexible sensor with application-specific integrated circuit interface for cardiovascular health at electrical engineering of University of British Columbia and University of Utah, respectively.


Qianru Jin works on mechanotransduction projects. Currently she is studying effects of cyclic stretch on fetal lung cells, in the context of nuclear mechanotransduction. She is interested in designing and creating a novel engineering platform to study geometry and mechanical effects on vascular and lung cells. She received her BS from Tsinghua University in Beijing, China in 2011, then began PhD study at the Johns Hopkins University, and joined the Romer lab in 2015.

In the rare occasion when she is not in Ross top floor or Maryland basement, she enjoys outdoors and reading.


Gayatri Pahapale is a graduate student in the Gracias lab and is co-advised by Dr. Romer. Her work is aimed at building a platform to study the effect of physical constraints on a cell using gels, which mimic the cell matrix very closely. She received her Bachelor's degree in Chemical Technology (B. Tech) from the Institute of Chemical Technology in Mumbai, India in 2016, after which she began graduate study at Johns Hopkins.


Michal Levine Millrod earned her PhD from the Immunology Program in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Her thesis work was conducted in the Institute for Cell Engineering and focused on the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) to hematopoietic and cardiac lineages. She began her postdoctoral studies in the Romer Lab in 2018, where she is interested in using hPSC to develop personalized medicine approaches to studying and treating pediatric pulmonary hypertension.

Post Analysis

This page contains MATLAB .m files that analyze data collected on microfabricated post array detectors (mPADs). These programs are free to download, but we ask that if you use them you site the following paper: 

Lemmon CA, Sniadecki NJ, Alom Ruiz S, Tan JL, Romer LH, and Chen CS. “Shear force at the cell-matrix interface: enhanced analysis for microfabricated post array detectors”, Mechanics and Chemistry of Biosystems, 2005.

PostAnalysis 1.41

PostAnalysis 1.41 consists of a series of m-files that analyze images acquired from the microfabricated post array detector (mPAD) system. M-files are contained in a zip file, and are intended for use with Matlab version 6.5.1 and later.

Download PostAnalysis 1.41
(Right-click and choose “Save Target As”)

Installation:

After downloading the zip file, extract the m-files with WinZip. The folder containing the m-files must be added to the working path of Matlab. After starting Matlab, click on the ‘File’ menu tab and select ‘Set Path’. Then click on ‘Add with Subfolders’. Select the folder containing the m-files and click ‘ok’. Verify that the file name has been added and click ‘save’. Then click ‘ok’.

Running the Program:

PostAnalysis 1.41 must be run from the folder containing the images to be analyzed. First, switch the ‘Current Directory’ panel (on the left side of the Matlab screen in Matlab 6.5.1; at the top of the screen in Matlab 7) to the directory containing images to be analyzed. (Use the ‘…’ button to find the directory). In order for the program to run properly, the folder must contain three 12-bit TIF files with the suffix ‘Top.tif’, ‘Bottom.tif’, and ‘Actin.tif’ and the same prefix. You do not need to select these files; just verify that they are present in the current directory. After switching to the proper directory, type ‘analyze_posts_LT2’ (without the quotes) at the Matlab command prompt and press ‘enter’. A graphics window will open and will prompt for all needed inputs. Follow the instructions as directed. Some processes, such as rotation and cropping, can take 10-20 seconds to complete.

Troubleshooting/FAQ:

When I start the code, I receive an error saying that the variable ‘dir_names’ is unknown. The program cannot find the appropriate image files in the current directory. Verify that there are images with the appropriate suffixes in the current directory (see above).

Nothing seems to happen when I try to click on rotation points, drag the crop box, or select collapsed posts. You must click ‘ok’ on the textbox before the program will allow you to begin the operation.

I’ve selected collapsed posts, but can’t continue in the program. You must hit ‘enter’ with the crosshairs located over the image to continue.

I selected collapsed posts, but can’t tell which ones I’ve selected. Marked posts will not be labeled with yellow ’s until after you have hit ‘enter’ to continue (see above). You will have a chance to clear them and select again if you make mistakes.

I can’t get the fibronectin or vinculin analysis to run. At this point in time, modules for fibronectin and vinculin analysis have not been completed.

The program seems to have frozen. If you encounter a problem, you can use ‘ctrl-c’ to stop execution of the program.

Graphics Requirement: PostAnalysis 1.41 requires that screen resolution be set at least 1024 x 768 pixels.
