Extracellular matrix Molecular oncology Neural development Tumor angiogenesis

Prof. Makoto Noda studied organic chemistry, microbial genetics, and molecular biology at Keio University and Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan. His PhD study was to clone a primate retroviral (baboon endogenous virus) genome into bacteriophage and to use its fragments to isolate retrovirus-related sequences in the human genome, elements still hypothetical at that time. His postdoctoral study at National Cancer Institute, USA, led to the first demonstration of functional diversity among oncogenes. His subsequent studies (at Keio University, RIKEN, Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, and Kyoto University) include the discovery of a paradoxical activity of RAS to induce neuronal differentiation in PC12 cells, isolation of Rap1 and RECK as transformation suppressor genes, isolation of a series of genes whose expression is abundant in mouse neural precursor cells but low in mature brain (termed Nedd genes), elucidation of physiological functions of some of these genes using cell culture and mouse genetics, and development of functional assays useful for screening potential anti-cancer/metastatic drugs.

Colorectal cancer CRISPR/Cas9 screening Image based screening Liver cancer Stem cells Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling

Prof. Dr. Zhu Pingping has been engaged in research on the regulatory mechanism of stem cells, including Adult Stem Cells (ASCs) in physiological conditions at Zhengzhou University.Since his PhD, Zhu Pingping has been engaged in research on the regulatory mechanism of stem cells, including Adult Stem Cells (ASCs) in physiological conditions (such as intestinal stem cells, ISCs) and Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) in pathological conditions (such as intestinal CSCs and liver CSCs). The regulatory mechanisms include epigenetic regulation (such as non-coding RNAs, chromatin remodeling complexes, DNA modifications), transcriptional regulation, and microenvironmental regulation.
