Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Qinkai Lei"
- Qinkai Lei's research primarily focuses on the interactions between small non-coding RNAs and environmental toxicants, with significant studies on piRNAs in relation to BaP-induced lung injuries, showcasing a novel bottom-up approach for understanding toxicity pathways and their in vivo validation.
- His work also highlights the role of microbial interactions in the formation of floating iron films in wetlands, emphasizing their impact on nutrient and trace metal availability under circumneutral conditions, thus contributing to ecological and biogeochemical understanding.
- Additionally, Lei has developed an entropy weight method to mechanistically evaluate drug-induced liver injury (DILI) by integrating various big omics datasets and employing bioinformatics tools, aiming to enhance drug development by providing insights into hepatotoxicity mechanisms.
