Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Wen-chao Hu"
- Wen-Chao Hu's research primarily focuses on the mechanisms of chronic pain and anxiety-like behaviors, particularly investigating how CCL2-CCR2 signaling impacts inflammatory pain through NMDA receptor modulation in the anterior cingulate cortex.
- Additionally, his studies explore neuropathic pain associated with brachial plexus avulsion and the role of peripheral BDNF in somatosensory-sympathetic coupling.
- Beyond neuroscience, Hu has developed novel electrochemical detection methods using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for bacteria and biomolecular detection, showcasing his contributions to both biomedical and materials science research.
