天然免疫是人体免疫防御的第一道屏障,通过采用“模式识别受体”模式来识别病原体和自身异常的特异性分子,包括病原相关分子模式(PAMP)和损伤相关分子模式(DAMP)。中枢神经系统异常导致的应激和细胞的损伤,通过释放内源性损伤相关分子,介导一些列中枢神经系统疾病的发生和发展。近年来,胞质的DNA感知通路(cGAS-cGAMP-STING)的突破引起了广泛的关注,除了参与抗病毒反应,我们的前期研究首次鉴定DNA感知通路cGAS蛋白是参与体内无菌性炎症的重要分子(Nature, 2019; PNAS,2017),这一发现将众多重大疾病与天然免疫调控联系在一起,开启了研究多种人类疾病发病机制的全新视角,为疾病治疗提供新的线索,特别是神经系统疾病,包括神经退行性疾病、脑卒中、肿瘤等。同时,我们发现代谢物可以作为“信号分子“的非经典代谢功能(Cancer Cell,2011;Cell Research,2014),调控免疫细胞的分化(Nature Metabolism,2022),开启了代谢与免疫互作调控研究的新方向。我们关注免疫,代谢和中枢神经细胞的互作,整合bwin必赢附属华山医院神经系统疾病的临床资源,将通过单细胞测序和CRISPR技术,结合经典的分子生物学和实验动物模型,以神经退行性疾病、肿瘤等重大脑疾病为载体,主要研究以下几个问题:
1. 天然免疫识别、活化和炎症发生的分子与细胞机制,
2. 无菌性炎症的神经-免疫-代谢的互作和调控机制,
3. 神经系统疾病的异质性解析,
4. 无菌炎症性脑疾病的药物发现和转化研究,
5. 基于免疫和代谢干预的脑肿瘤转化研究。
