Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yun-Yun Wu"
- Yun-Yun Wu's recent research primarily focuses on the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in cardiovascular health, particularly their contribution to diabetic arterial calcification and vascular diseases, as evidenced by studies exploring endothelial cell-derived EVs and their mechanisms under high glucose conditions.
- Wu has also investigated the physiological effects of cold exposure on type 2 diabetes, demonstrating how chronic cold conditions influence plasma-derived exosomes to alleviate diabetes symptoms, and examining the impact of temperature on bone mass through autophagy inhibition.
- Additionally, Wu's work includes a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study that assesses the relationship between socio-economic status and bone-related health outcomes, indicating a growing intersection between social determinants and health, particularly in osteoporosis and fracture risks.
