Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zheng Zuo"
- Zheng Zuo's recent research heavily focuses on the pharmacological activities and functional characterization of degradation peptides derived from traditional Chinese medicinal materials, particularly scorpion toxins, as well as understanding their potential applications in medicine.
- The studies also explore agricultural practices, including the impact of shallow wet irrigation on reducing nitrogen leaching in paddy fields, aiming to enhance fertilizer efficiency amidst increasing agricultural nitrogen consumption in China.
- Additionally, Zuo's work investigates the role of specific biological factors in health, such as the protective functions of perivascular adipose tissue in cardiovascular systems and the relationship between genetically determined branched-chain amino acids and cardiovascular diseases through Mendelian randomization studies.
