Research
Cell life is highly dependent on its adaptability to the microenvironment,
including sensing and responding the physical cues transduced from
extracellular matrix (ECM) or adjacent cells. My research interests are
focusing on how mechanical force is generated and transmitted through focal
adhesome and cell-cell junctional complexes during vascular development,
especially in angiogenesis, vessel maturation and aortic tolerance to fluid
shear stress. Reveal of potential mechanisms will probably contribute to
rescue relevant pathological conditions, for example vascular inflammation
and aneurysm.
