Research Areas

​Hypoxic environments often occur in plateaus and human diseases (such as solid tumors). Hypoxic signaling pathways play a vital role in tumors, angiogenesis, and so on. In the past, people studied cancer, collected more cancer tissues and adjacent tissues for comparative omics analysis, obtained differentially expressed gene information, and then performed in vivo and in vitro functional analysis of differential candidate genes. The research group used evolutionary bioinformatics methods such as genome and transcriptome to comparatively analyze the adaptation mechanism of hypoxic environment in the plateau domestic animals and non-model animals during the rapid rise of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In addition to the known HIF1/2 signal pathway, A series of candidate genes that may be related to hypoxia adaptation were also screened. These candidate genes were proved by experimental methods such as in vitro cell survival, apoptosis, tumor cell proliferation, migration, and nude mouse tumor-bearing in vivo, Knock-in mice, etc. It plays a very important role in the tumor progression. These studies show that the use of advanced chemical methods to analyze the molecular mechanism of hypoxic adaptation in plateau mammals can also provide new targets for the research, diagnosis or treatment of human diseases, especially solid tumors, suggesting that interdisciplinary research has a role in human disease research in future, with great innovation and application prospects.
