1.研究染色体构象调节蛋白 BRG1在致癌基因导致细胞衰老过程中的作用。
BRG1是染色体构象调节复合体的核心蛋白,其抑制肿瘤的作用正日益受到研究人员的重视。BRG1在致癌基因导致细胞老化过程中参与了染色质凝聚和细胞周期抑制蛋白过表达等重要过程。
致癌基因导致细胞老化,诱发良性乃至恶性肿瘤的现象在当今癌症研究领域正受到越老越多的关注,然而其机理却尚不明朗,有待研究。该项研究对于揭示肿瘤发生过程,探索新的治疗手段,开发新的药物都有着极其重要的指导意义。
肿瘤的多药耐药性一直是困扰癌症治疗的一个重大障碍。而高效抗癌多肽,作为一种直接破坏肿瘤细胞的候选药物,正受到越来越多的关注。本人在攻读博士期间,运用了多种方法,设计了多个系列的抗癌多肽,显著增加了高效抗癌多肽的选择性和耐药性。为抗癌多肽的功能定向设计提供了新颖的广泛适用的指导法则。
