Research interests: At the molecular level, the hallmark of tumor malignancy comprises dysregulation of several cellular signaling networks attributable to genetic and epigenetic changes. Recent next-generation or deep sequencing (NGS) studies have provided a more global view of the genetic and epigenetic origins of different cancer. My research is focused mainly on establishing and applying various NGS-based technologies to systematically profile nucleotide variants (at the genome or transcriptome level) in cancer samples, and explore the disease relevance of these mutational “bio-signatures”. Major research aims and platforms include, but not limited to: 1. Targeted genome re-sequencing analysis of oral squamous cell carcinoma 2. Targeted genome re-sequencing analysis of colorectal cancer 3. Targeted genome re-sequencing analysis of nasopharyngeal cancer 4. Transcriptomic sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of host response to EV71 infection 5. RNA-seq and small RNA-seq of tissues derived from oral cancer animal model 6. Small RNA-seq analysis of urine samples from acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease 7. RNA-IP-seq analysis of RNA-binding protein-associated RNAs We complement these functional genomic experiments with cell-based and animal studies to further delineate molecular mechanisms underlying the pathological roles of these variants. Our ultimate goal is to uncover sequence variants and/or gene regulatory mechanisms that are novel diagnostic or therapeutic targets. Furthermore, we aim to establish close integration of proteomic and genomic data generated by the Molecular Medicine Research Center for translational medicine application. |
