Research Interests

Research in my laboratory mainly focuses on understanding molecular mechanisms underlying the functional stability, plasticity and balance of FOXP3+ Regulatory T cells (Treg) and RORgt+ T helper 17 cells (Th17) in inflammatory diseases, as well as their therapeutic modulation, especially by compounds from Traditional Chinese medicine. By using and developing animal models with Treg-specific depletion of enzymatic subunits of FOXP3 complex, as well as these state-of-art cutting-edge technologies in single cell sequencing and immune cell metabolism, we are revealing the functional role of peripheral tissue-specific Treg cells in vitro and in vivo in health and disease settings. We expect that our original findings will be utilised by biomedical industry and be beneficial to human health.
