Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yan-xin Xie"
- Yan-Xin Xie's recent research primarily focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic dysfunction related to neurological diseases, particularly through the study of Munc18-1 mutations and their impact on synaptic proteins like Doc2.
- In addition to neurological research, Xie has explored the effects of validamycin on the transcriptome of Diaphorina citri, shedding light on the biochemical pathways influenced by this compound in pests and their potential implications for pest management.
- Xie's work also includes significant contributions to the field of insect physiology and biochemistry, such as the identification of chitin synthase genes and ferritin heavy chain in various insect species, which are important for understanding growth, development, and immune response in these organisms.
