研究领域

黏膜组织(mucosal tissue),包括肠道、呼吸道等,担负着保障机体与外界正常交流的重要作用。黏膜组织内部的免疫系统在维系组织免疫平衡、防御病源入侵等过程中发挥着非常重要的作用,是目前免疫学研究的热点。天然淋巴细胞(innate lymphoid cell,或ILC)是黏膜组织中大量富集的一类免疫细胞。我们希望从对ILC的研究入手,利用荧光基因报告小鼠、功能基因敲除模型、多色流式细胞分析、高通量测序、感染及肿瘤模型等手段,揭示黏膜组织中免疫系统的功能特点、调控机制及其发育过程。具体而言包括下述内容: 1.阐释重要转录因子对黏膜组织中免疫细胞(如ILC、T细胞等)发育、分化及功能的调控机制并根据关键转录因子的表达情况发现新的免疫细胞亚群; 2.揭示黏膜组织中免疫细胞之间的相互作用关系; 3.探索肠道表皮细胞、共生菌群对肠道免疫细胞的影响。
