Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Wei-li Chen"
- Wei-li Chen's recent research focuses on the role of nerve growth factor (NGF) in various malignancies, particularly osteosarcoma and rheumatoid arthritis, demonstrating its influence on immune cell polarization and tumor metastasis, which could inform therapeutic strategies such as larotrectinib therapy.
- Chen's work on chondrosarcoma reveals that elevated nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) levels enhance metastasis through miR-26b-5p synthesis inhibition, suggesting a potential biomarker for aggressive disease progression.
- Additional studies encompass innovative diagnostic approaches, including a fluorescence-based device for detecting lactoferrin in tears to differentiate Sjögren's syndrome from non-Sjögren's dry eye, as well as insights into xenotransplantation and acute liver injury mitigation using magnetic fields, highlighting a diverse research portfolio.
