1. Overview of scientific research
Using interdisciplinary biological methods,includes mouse genetics、Molecular and Cellular Biology, Genome and Biomics, etc. Systems Biology Technology,Studying epigenetic mechanisms in stem cell differentiation,Role in cell function and fate determination。
Research direction: stem cell biology and epigenetics。Embryonic stem cells have the multi-directional differentiation potential to form all types of cells in human and animal individuals,And can continuously update itself。These two characteristics of embryonic stem cells make them not only important in biological research,And it is used for cell replacement therapy,has immeasurable medical uses and prospects。Higher organisms are composed of many types of cells。They have the same genetic material,But different epigenetic information。The process dafabet best online casinoof organism development is the process of establishing a variety of epigenetic information in different cells。The most important research questions in the life sciences include analyzing the unique epigenetic information of various types of cells,And discover how they are built,How to selectively affect the expression of some genes in different cells,Thus determining cell function and fate。Mutations in epigenetic mechanisms are often closely linked to human diseases。
Mainly using interdisciplinary biological methods,includes mouse genetics,Molecular and cell biology and systems biology technologies such as genome and genomics,Studying epigenetic mechanisms in stem cell differentiation,Role in cell function and fate determination。The research results will provide an important framework for understanding the epigenetic mechanism in regulating gene expression at the systemic and molecular levels,Stem cell differentiation、Role in development and disease,Promote the clinical realization of stem cell therapy,And provide novel drug clues to treat cancer,Provides an important design blueprint for the construction of future artificial cells。
