个人简介
分别于1995年和2000年在福建医科大学获学士学位和硕士学位,2003年于中山大学中山医学院(原中山医科大学)获医学博士学位。1995年至2000年在福建医科大学解剖学教研室任助教,2003年至2004年在中山大学解剖学系任讲师;2004年至2009年在美国NIH做博士后研究工作;2009-2010在NIH做Research Fellow;2010年10月作为中山大学“百人计划”引进人才回国工作。
研究领域
研究方向一:帕金森氏病(PD)相关基因和蛋白的功能性研究。帕金森氏病具有显性家族遗传性的相关基因为alpha-synuclein和LRRK2,我们首次证明了LRRK2 能够在体内特异性加剧alpha-synuclein诱发的病理性变化,并阐明了其作用的分子病理机制。目前研究的内容:1. 探索LRRK2 和alpha-synuclein之间相互作用的信号传导途径。2. 以PD核心病理性蛋白alpha-synuclein为靶目标,研究其他PD病理性蛋白(如tau蛋白)与其之间的分子相互作用机制。 研究方向二:PD的表观遗传学研究,我们的目的着眼于研究中脑不同部位的多巴胺神经元的表观遗传修饰的差异及其原因,来解释PD的发生机制。 研究方向三:免疫炎症在PD发生发展中的作用。
