四、 承担的主要科研项目
Multiple function incretin hormones initiate the novel anti-diabetes and obesity drug developments: Structure-activity relationships study and analogues design and synthesis of the gut and incretin hormones including Glucagon, GLP-1, GIP, Calcitonin, Insulin and Amylin over the last 20 years. One of the main contribution chemists in developing and concepting the dual GLP-1/glucagon and GLP-1/GIP co-agonists. The primary chemist to develop and report the GLP-1/GIP/glucagon incretin tri-agonists, and also the first chemist who reports GIP peptide antagonists that successfully mimetics the GIPR antibody function in vivo. These novel multi-acting incretin peptides which some of on clinical trials by big pharma of Merck, Roche and Novo Nordisk have demonstrated the potential better effective therapeutics in the managements of obesity and diabetes than the marketing mono-GLP-1 agonist drugs.
Nuclear hormones tissue targeting delivery: Nuclear hormones e.g. estrogen, thyroid hormones and corticosteroids play important roles in insulin regulatory and glucose homeostasis. Through conjugating with peptides e.g. GLP-1, glucagon, insulin or FGF21, to specifically deliver such nuclear hormone
.molecules to pancreas, liver or adipocytes to avoid other tissue’s side effects. Development of special conjugation linkers that ensure to release the nuclear hormone molecules intracellularly while keep the conjugates stable in circulations.
Peptide HIV vif protein inhibitors and mechanisms study of APOBEC3G/CEM15: Phage display screen of peptide library that binding to protein vif inhibiting vif dimerization which responsible for HIV virial replications. Fist disclosure the deamination-edited mechanism of anti-HIV virus protein APOBEC3G, developing method analysis G-to-A/C-to-U HIV DNA mutation induced by APOBEC3G. APOBEC3G cellar associated proteins separation and determination by proteomics analysis methods.
