Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kwak Moon Hwa"
- Kwak Moon Hwa’s recent research primarily focuses on innovative approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal cancers, especially gastric and pancreatic cancer, using peptide-based probes developed through phage display technology.
- The studies highlight the development of gastric cancer-specific drug delivery methods and molecular imaging techniques, demonstrating the potential of peptide probes in enhancing cancer-specific theranostics and targeting stem cell biomarkers like LGR5.
- In addition to cancer research, the author has explored the application of photodynamic therapy (PDT) using methylene blue for duodenal mucosal resurfacing and its efficacy in managing glycemic control, indicating a broader interest in metabolic disease interventions and the therapeutic applications of PDT in various contexts.
