Research Description
  1. In 1998, began to study Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of AD, using primary cultured cortical neurons as a neuron model to study AD treatment through neuroprotection. In 2001, "Journal of Biological chemistry" published a study on the neuroprotective effects of flavonoids.
  2. In 2010, the primary culture of cortical microglia and the primary culture of mixed glial cells were used as neuroinflammatory cell models to study the anti-neuroinflammation research of AD. Two papers were published in "Journal of Biomedical Science" in 2013.
  3. In 2015, began to use APP/PS1 gene transgenic mice treated with a high-fat diet and streptozotocin to establish an animal model of metabolic stress aggravating AD. Four studies have been published in academic journals such as “Neurobiology of Aging”. From 2016 to 2018, a series of studies related to erinacines were published in “Journal of Biomedical Science” and “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” using cell models and APP/PS1 transgenic mouse models.
  4. In 2017, research on the neuroprotection of synthetic hydroxy-functionalized stilbene and 2-arylbenzo[b]furan, published in “Journal of Medicinal Chemistry”.
  5. In 2021, using cell models and APP/PS1 transgenic mouse models to study compounds isolated from Antrodia cinnamomea, published in the "International Journal of Molecular Sciences". Research on HH-F3 isolated from Graptopetalum paraguayense, published in "Nutrients".
