Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Wanhua Qiu"
- Wanhua Qiu's recent research highlights the significant role of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) in promoting repair mechanisms within the central nervous system, suggesting their potential therapeutic applications in nervous system diseases by modulating various signaling pathways and inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis.
- The findings indicate that FGFs activate critical pathways such as PI3K-Akt and PPARγ to protect against injury, enhance neuronal differentiation, and support the functionality of neurovascular units.
- Additionally, Qiu's work explores the role of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) in epilepsy, demonstrating its involvement in preventing neuronal apoptosis and cognitive deficits, thus providing insights into glucocorticoid signaling's impact on epileptogenesis.
