RESEARCH AREA Glucose and lipid metabolism; tumor suppressor

RESEARCH INTERESTS
The research interests of our laboratory are to apply tools of molecular biology, cell biology and animal models to understand the molecular mechanisms, signal transduction and functional roles in human diseases in the areas of obesity, type 2 diabetes and cancer development. Our current research is focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying regulation of metabolism by subcellular compartmentalization, diet- and alcohol-induced fatty liver, and glycogenesis in glucose and lipid homeostasis. In cancer research, we are deciphering the cellular and in vivo functions of a new tumor suppressor localized in the Golgi apparatus. In nutritional research, we are exploring different forms of intermittent fasting to intervene in the progression of diabetes. We published over 120 peer-reviewed articles in these research areas in journals including Nature, PNAS, EMBO Journal, Nature Communications, Diabetes, Diabetologia, Hepatology, Journal of Hepatology, Endocrinology, Journal of Nutrition, Autophagy Cancer Research, Oncogene, MCB, and JBC.
Dr. Chen is currently appointed as a full-time principal investigator in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine.
Dr. Chen got his Ph.D at Lanzhou University, and was trained in Seoul National University, AIST Japan, University of Pittsburgh, and Harvard Medical School as postdoctoral fellow. His research is primarily directed toward understanding the molecular mechanisms, prevention and treatment involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory airway diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), environmental particulate matter and lung diseases, molecular mechanisms of airway epithelial injury, and novel animal models for COPD. He has published more than 80 SCI papers, including PNAS, Autophagy, Chest, J Immunol, JBC et al, and has been funded by NSFC and 973 Program.
Dr. Gao is a Professor in the School of Aerospace Medicine at the Fourth Military Medical University. He also holds positions as Adjunct Professor at Thomas Jefferson University and Adjunct Professor at the Institute of Molecular Medicine of Peking University. He received his MD and PhD of Physiology from the Fourth Military Medical University and had his postdoctoral training at Thomas Jefferson University. He is interested in and has been engaged in the field of cardiovascular protection. His major findings include exercise-induced cardioprotection via exosome-mediated cross talk between vascular endothelial cells and the heart, and insulin cardioprotective effect for the ischemic/reperfused heart via activating the cardiac endogenous eNOS-NO system through PI3 kinase-Akt signaling mechanism. This insulin-induced “survival” signaling and resultant cardioprotection may represent a novel approach for the development of pharmacological strategies that ameliorate insulin resistance and attenuate ischemia/reperfusion myocardial injury. These findings have been published in Circulation, PNAS, Circ Res, eLife, Intense Care Med, Crit Care Med, Hypertension and J Physiol and have been widely cited in journals, such as New Engl J Med, Physiol Rev and Nature over 6000 times. Dr. Gao's work has been continually supported by the National Key Basic Research Program and National Nature Science Foundation of China.
Dr. Gao has served as an Associate Editor of Life Sciences (2013- ), Associate-Editor-in-Chief of Acta Physiologica Sinica (2015- ), the editorial member of Cardiovasc Res (2009-2017), Am J Physiol-Heart Circ Physiol (2014-)and Apoptosis (2008- ), and an international reviewer for Circulation, Diabetes, Crit Care Med, etc..

PERSONAL STATEMENT
Since starting my laboratory in 2011, I has focused on G protein coupled receptors, in particular, the molecular mechanism of biased signaling of GPCRs. Our first main research aspect are the working mechanism of GPCR. For arrestin mediated biased signaling, we have proposed a “flute model” to explain the arrestin mediated GPCR functions (Nature communications, 2015; Molecular Pharmacology, 2017; Recommended by Faculty 1000, Nature Chemical Biology 2018). We proposed that the 10 distinct phosphorylation interacting sites along the N-terminal of arrestin is the “phospho-code” reader of the arrestin, which recognized the information passed by GPCR, then translated to more then 1000 distinct functions. Our discovery can partially explain how limited effector proteins (16 G protein subtype and 4 arrestin subtype) can translate sophisticated information dictated from more than 800 GPCR to numerous cellular functions. We identified a new mechanism in activation of ion channel by GPCRs. A prototype thinking is that the ion channels are activated by GPCRs through either direct G protein interaction or second messengers downstream of G protein activation. We identified that arrestin can mediated AT1R/TRPC3 or M3R/TRPC3 coupling by forming a complex of AT1R/β-arrestin-1/PLCγ/TRPC3 or M3R//β-arrestin-1/TRPC3 (Nature communications 2017, Nature communications 2018). We also identified that orphan receptor GPR64 forms complex with β-arrestin-1 and CFTR at apical membrane of efferent ductules to regulate the salt/water metabolism (eLife 2018, Faculty 1000 recommendation). These work provided new mechanisms for GPCR activated ion channel, which may be relevant to many physiological or pathological processes. Our second research aspect is the physiological and pathological functions of GPCRs. We have elucidated how CCK1R different biased signaling and β adrenergic biased signaling regulated different pancreatic islet function and homeostasis. We also identified that short term activation of β2AR signaling improved learning and memory by increased lactate metabolism and astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle (ANLS), whereas long term stress or activation of β2AR signaling has harmful effect on learning and memory through a desensitization mechanism.

RESEACH HIGHLIGHTS
From 2010, I have led a research team with awarded project and fellowship funding. A series of biological models have established, such as unique isolated kidney perfusion system that has used to preserve human kidney donors before transplantation. Cell culture, rodent and porcine models have been used to study mechanisms of kidney diseases, and human samples such as renal biopsies have been also used to define biomarkers, and validate translational interventions. More recently, I am leading AKI-related clinical studies to further validate selected biomarkers such as SERPINA3 and SILP1 against commonly used NGAL and KIM-1 in urine and blood samples from high-risk patients. I also designed an organ/cell target gene therapy using caspase-3 siRNA conjugated with a ligand peptide (HBSP) that will be guided by its receptors (EPOR/βcR) highly expressed in injured kidneys. To generate siRNA-HBSP conjugate, I am collaborating with colleagues in Chemistry and Preclinical Research Facility in Leicester, and Biomics and Biotechnologies Co Ltd. in China, to maximize productivities and outcomes.

Dr. Chunjiu Zhong received his B.S. degree in Clinical Medicine from Anhui Medical University in 1986 and M.S. degree in Neurology from (former) Shanghai Medical University in 1992. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in Neurology in 2007 from Fudan University. Since 1992, Dr. Zhong has been working at Zhongshan Hospital, Shanghai Medical University (presently Fudan University) as a clinician and researcher in Neurology. In 2009, he joined the State Key Laboratory of Medical Neurobiology and in 2010, he joined the Institutes for Brain Science as a principal investigator. He is also associate editor-in-chief of Neuroscience Bulletin, and an outstanding executive member in Chinese Neuroscience Society and Chinese Committee for Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI).
His research has been focused on pathogeneses, clinical diagnosis, prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, especially Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Prof. Zhong proposed that Alzheimer's disease is a metabolic disorder and hypothesized that abnormal thiamine metabolism contributes to the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease by perturbing cerebral glucose metabolism and provoking multiple pathogenic cascades. Based on this hypothesis, Prof. Zhong proposed a novel strategy for searching new targets of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis and intervention through decoding the mechanism in brain glucose hypometabolism of the disease. He first found and demonstrated the diagnostic value of detecting the levels of blood thiamine metabolites for Alzheimer's disease (coverage news in AAIC 2013, Ebiomedicine 2016). He also developed two patent chemical drugs of class I in China against Alzheimer's disease as sponsor.
