Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zheng-Bing He"
- Zheng-Bing He’s research primarily focuses on the effects of toxic dinoflagellates, specifically Prorocentrum lima, on bivalve species like Perna viridis, examining their cellular and molecular responses to diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins.
- His studies have revealed the involvement of the Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway in bivalve tolerance to DSP toxins, and highlighted the up-regulation of Nrf2-dependent antioxidant defenses as a protective mechanism following exposure to these toxins.
- Additionally, He has explored the inhibitory effects of natural products from Chinese herbs on harmful algal blooms, identifying specific compounds with significant toxicity against Chattonella marina, indicating potential avenues for environmental management of red tide species.
