Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jixiong Xie"
- Jixiong Xie's research primarily focuses on the role of TRPV1, a non-selective cation channel, in cellular plasticity within hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), employing both in vivo and in vitro experimental approaches.
- In his 2019 article, Xie investigates the interplay between TRPV1 and key regulatory proteins Ovol 2 and Zeb 1, shedding light on mechanisms that may contribute to the malignancy of HCC.
- The study utilizes comprehensive bioinformatics analysis alongside genetic models to elucidate the overexpression of TRPV1 in HCC, thereby enhancing the understanding of its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer treatment.
