研究興趣

My interest is focused on tissue specific immunity and immune dysregulation in autoimmune diseases and tumor formation.

Following are research projects currently been carried out in my laboratory:

1.     Analysis of intracellular signals leading to the expression of IL-10 and Fas-L.

2.     Searching for agents potent in manipulating the Th1/2 activities.

3.     Study on the molecular mechanism of tumor immune escape.

4.     Cell apoptosis.

5.     Fas-L on tumor formation.

6.     Extracelullar matrix and immune responses
