研究领域及兴趣
人脑特别是大脑皮层是自然界最复杂、最为精密的结构；脑疾患产生严重的健康、经济和社会问题。脑发育的核心问题之一是神经元和胶质细胞如何精密地产生、空间上准确定位并形成功能神经环路。本课题组综合应用发育生物学、遗传学、细胞生物学和生物化学方法研究哺乳动物大脑皮层发育过程中神经前体细胞如何进行命运选择，尤其是大脑皮层投射神经元顺序产生的分子和细胞生物学机制。特别关注组蛋白修饰、长非编码RNA和基因组顺式元件的转录调控功能。并发现这些调控机制与多种神经系统疾病如自闭症、先天性智力障碍、神经退行性疾病和神经系统肿瘤等的发生发展密切相关。
The six-layer structure of the cerebral cortex (neocortex) of the brain is amazingly complex. We explore the molecular and cellular mechanisms governing the precise generation of cellular components of the neocortex by neural progenitor cells, with emphasis on roles of histone modifications, long non-coding RNAs and cis-regulatory elements in transcriptional regulation. Our findings have implications in understanding pathogenesis of neurological disorders including autism, intellectual disability, neural degeneration and glioma.
