  • Ma-Li Wong, MD, PhD
    Distinguished Professor
    Research Interests:

    The long-term goals of Dr. Wong的研究是开发一个跨越实验室和临床的转化研究项目，以了解分子, 神经精神和神经退行性疾病的细胞和电路基础, 尤其是那些伴有代谢紊乱的患者. 2型糖尿病和肥胖引起的其他代谢后果与抑郁症的高发率有关, anxiety and dementia. The ongoing focus on Dr. Wong的实验室包括:重性抑郁症中新型生物标志物的表征以及抑郁症中特定基因或途径的作用, 包括炎性体信号, epigenetic markers, alternative splicing, and the gut microbiome.

    We have 4 current projects: 

    1) To determine the specific role(s) of PHF21B (plant homeodomain finger protein 21B) in neuronal function relevant to social recognition impairment; this is relevant because social cognitive impairments are a central feature of several neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric, neurodevelopmental (e.g., 自闭症谱系和注意缺陷多动障碍)条件, 也会发生在创伤性脑损伤和中风后的急性脑损伤后.

    2) A 创新的研究路线集中在研究慢性应激中神经炎症和血清素信号之间的界面.

    3) A 主要研究前mrna剪接在慢性应激病理生理中的作用.

    4)选择性剪接在阿尔茨海默病(AD)认知能力下降和衰老中的作用.

  • Mark Woodford, PhD
    Assistant Professor
    Research Interests:

    热休克蛋白(Hsps)是分子伴侣蛋白的一个子集，在所有亚细胞区室中都具有组成性和应激反应. Hsp90伴侣蛋白TRAP1主要定位于线粒体，控制细胞代谢重编程和线粒体凋亡. TRAP1上调通过促进糖酵解代谢和拮抗细胞死亡前的线粒体通透性转变，促进许多癌症的生长和进展. 在肿瘤细胞模型中，TRAP1的衰减或抑制可诱导细胞凋亡, 发现TRAP1是癌症的潜在治疗靶点.
