研究方向
1. 病原菌-宿主交互作用 (Microbe-Host interaction)
我的研究團隊專注於探討細菌性病原菌如何操控宿主的先天免疫系統,以促進其存活的制病機制。本實驗室使用的病原菌是單核細胞增生李斯特菌(Listeria monocytogenes)。此菌若感染於兒童、老年人或免疫功能低下的個體,較可能導致嚴重且危及生命的症狀。此外,感染李斯特菌之懷孕婦女常造成不良妊娠結果,如引發流產或新生兒感染等。本研究室針對孕期間李斯特菌感染的分子機制,希望藉由解析李斯特菌與宿主之間的交互作用,幫助我們了解細菌病原體如何利用毒力因子破壞宿主防禦反應與胎盤相關之病理。
2. 環境污染-宿主交互作用 (Environment pollutant-host interaction)
全球大量生產的塑膠已導致微米級和奈米級塑膠顆粒成為嚴重的環境污染來源。近期研究顯示,這些塑膠顆粒能在多種人體組織中累積並引發細胞毒性。本研究室聚焦在塑膠污染導致的孕期併發症、探討塑膠微粒對胎盤功能的損害及其導致妊娠併發症的分子機制。我們結合細胞實驗、動物模型及人類胎盤組織分析,解析塑膠微粒對胎盤免疫功能及屏障功能的破壞機制。希望提升大眾對塑膠污染健康風險的認識,且減輕與塑膠相關的生殖危害。
