I am a biochemist with a background in human physiological biochemistry, protein biochemistry and regulation of gene expression. My research interests turned towards molecular genetics with a focus on the underlying causes of Malignant Hyperthermia in humans, but I remain a biochemist at heart. I work closely with anaesthetists at Palmerston North hospital on DNA analysis for Malignant Hyperthermia and calcium homeostasis in skeletal muscle. I run a research laboratory as well as an IANZ accredited diagnostic laboratory for Malignant Hyperthermia and teach a range of subjects including DNA structure, function and analysis, metabolic biochemistry and regulation of gene expression.

Current Projects

Project Title: Genetic Diagnosis of Malignant Hyperthermia

Our research will improve diagnosis of malignant hyperthermia (MH), which is a potentially fatal genetic disorder triggered by inhalational anaesthetics. If MH is diagnosed before surgery safe anaesthesia can be given to the patient. The current diagnosis is morbidly invasive (requiring a large muscle biopsy) and costly. Recently, we have found new mutations in MH-susceptible families that could form the basis of DNA tests for MH. Before carrying out these tests, we must show that the new mutations cause MH. This will allow us to provide simple, rapid, non-invasive and inexpensive DNA testing.

Project Title: Functional effects of RYR1 mutations

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a genetic disorder that is triggered by inhalational anaesthetics administered for general anaesthesia. MH manifests as a range of clinical symptoms including muscle rigidity, irregular heart rate and high temperature. Metabolically, MH results from dysregulated skeletal muscle homeostasis. If not rapidly recognized and treated, an MH episode can lead to death. If MH-susceptibility can be determined prior to general anaesthesia, an alternative non-triggering and safe anaesthetic procedure is used, thus MH can potentially be prevented. We use a range of state-of-the-art molecular tools to identify causative mutations in families known to be MH-susceptible. Once mutations have been shown to segregate within a family, we move to functional characterization to confirm dysregulation of calcium homeostasis. Finally, we develop and implement DNA-based predictive diagnostic tests. Thus far we have identified mutations that cause MH, and implemented DNA-based diagnostic tests for approximately half the New Zealand families affected by this disorder. This is an example of translational medical research and is carried out in collaboration with specialist anaesthetists at Palmerston North Hospital.

Graduate Supervision Statement

I operate an “open-door” policy for my graduate students encouraging them to discuss experimental results and any potential problems as they occur.  The intention here is to instill in the graduate student the ability to assimilate data, critically analyse it and ultimately “take charge” of their individual project as early in the programme as possible.  As some graduate students need to use shared biological resources there are ample opportunities to develop and implement teamwork strategies and skills.  To this end weekly research meetings are held with all laboratory personnel to formally present work in progress and informally discuss successes and failures.  This encourages interaction between students and research staff and assists in gaining confidence in both formal and informal presentation of work.

Graduate students themselves always prepare the first draft of any manuscript that may arise from the research work and I have acted as an effective mentor in a range of different subject areas that has ultimately led to publication.  The ultimate aim is to produce a self-critical graduate who can enter their chosen career with a sound background in appropriate scientific method, with the confidence to critically develop their own ideas, challenge others and be an independent and successful researcher.  


Prof Kathryn Stowell is available for Masters and Doctorial supervision.
