Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Wei-Wen Fan"
- Wei-wen Fan's recent research primarily focuses on the regenerative potential of stem cells and associated mechanisms in aging, particularly in skin rejuvenation and cardiovascular health issues faced by the aging population.
- His studies reveal significant roles for umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells in mitigating aging effects on skin structure and appearance, alongside addressing challenges related to limited myocardial regeneration in cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure and congenital heart disease.
- Additionally, Fan has investigated fundamental biological processes in fungi, including the function of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase genes and protein phosphatase regulatory subunits, which contribute to understanding cellular metabolism and growth regulation in Aspergillus nidulans.
