主要研究领域:细胞钙信号转导的微观过程和分子机理
钙离子是细胞最古老、作用最广泛的胞内信使。本实验室在激光共聚焦显微成像技术和膜片钳电生理技术的基础上,建立了单通道光学探测和通道间钙信号转导的研究技术,在国际上居领先优势。将该技术与分子生物学、功能蛋白组学、电子显微镜技术相配合,可以从分子间相互作用的微观水平阐述细胞钙信号是如何产生、放大和精细调控的。分子间钙信号转导的异常与心力衰竭、心律失常等重要疾病密切相关。我们通过揭示细胞钙信号动态及其精细调控过程的异常,揭示有关心脏疾病的分子机理,为其早期诊断和治疗探索新思路。
Research Interests : Microscopic process and molecular mechanism of calcium signal transduction in cells
The molecular basis of intracellular Ca2+ signaling. He combines state-of-the-art confocal imaging, single-channel patch clamping, single-molecule tracing with molecular cell biology techniques to dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying the generation, amplification and termination of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics, aiming to answer important questions about the function, development and dysfunction of the heart and brain.
