1. Environmental epigenetics
Epigenetic modifications of nucleic acids play a crucial role in gene regulation and are key players in the development of various diseases, including cancer. Our research is dedicated to investigating the physiological functions of epigenetic modifications of nucleic acids by establishing sensitive and specific analytical methods such as mass spectrometry and sequencing techniques. Additionally, we explore the impact and mechanisms of environmental factors on epigenetic modifications, aiming to provide new strategies and insights for the prevention and treatment of related diseases.
2. Metabolomics
We are dedicated to developing metabolomics research methods based on mass spectrometry technology, in conjunction with appropriate biological approaches, to identify disease biomarkers. Our research aims to comprehensively explore the vital physiological functions of metabolites in disease occurrence and progression, while also investigating the impact and mechanisms of environmental factors on life metabolism. Our goal is to provide novel strategies and insights for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of related diseases.
3. Investigation of Environmental Pollutants and Their Impact on Health
Develop new technologies for the detection of environmental pollutants with high sensitivity and wide coverage, and explore the impact of environmental pollutants on human health. Through correlation analysis of environmental pollutants and health outcomes, identify key environmental factors that significantly affect human health.
