    • Research Description

      With interdisciplinary background on engineering, molecular biology, genomics/bioinformatics and mathematical/statistical modeling, three research fields are being pursued in this lab: nanobiotechnology, molecular biosensing, and systems biology.

      Nanobiotechnology. In this research area, several experimental skills such as virology, recombinant protein expression, nanotoxicity, nanoparticle labeling and nucleic acid technology will be integrated to tackle the following topics:

    • 1.Nanotoxicogenomics (奈米粒子毒性評估平台的開發與建立) To establish the macrophage/epithelial cell co-culture system for cytotoxicity assessment of nanomaterials (建立巨噬細胞/上皮細胞體外共同培養系統成為奈米材料毒性評估平台)

        To identify a set of key universal toxic genes induced in co-cultured macrophages exposed to widely-used nanomaterials and establish the gene expression profiling database (使用基因晶片找出巨噬細胞暴露在各種常見奈米材料所誘導產生具指紋辨識性的毒性基因羣並建立它們相對應的基因表達頻譜資料庫)

      To compare the toxic gene expression profiling of an unknown nanomaterial with the universal signature database for potential toxicity prediction of the nanomaterial (藉由比對新奈米材料所產生指紋毒性基因表達頻譜的變化來預測該奈米材料的可能毒性)

      2.Nanomedicine (奈米生醫應用)

      • To develop novel nanoparticle-virus complex delivery system for drug delivery and targeting in vitro and in vivo.
      • To further establish nanomotor-virus complex delivery system for accelerating molecular drug delivery

      Molecular biosensing. In this area, highly sensitive biosensors will be developed to detect two highly pandemic infectious pathogens, influenza virus (流感病毒) and M. tuberculosis (結核桿菌).

      1. Influenza virus detection

      • To develop quantum dot-induced fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) reporter platform for real-time multiplex detection of different subtypes of influenza viruses (H1, H3, H5, and N1)
      • To develop nanogold-based oligonucleotide-aptamer test strip for visual identification of different influenza viral subtype (H1, H3, H5, and N1)

      2. Tuberculosis detection

      • To develop molecular beacon-based fluorescence in-situ hybridization assay for direct identification of M. tuberculosis.
      • To develop aptamer/protein/antibody array detection system for latent TB diagnosis from clinical blood samples.

      Systems biology. In this area, high-throughput measurement and analytical tools (e.g., DNA/protein/antibody/cell/siRNA microarrays and bioinformatics) will be used to obtain large-scale biological parameters for elucidating biological problems from a systems perspective. The emerging field of systems biology represents an integration of concepts and idea from life sciences, engineering disciplines and computer science.

      To develop biological pathway analysis framework for deciphering molecular toxic mechanism based on genome-wide microarray data (發展生物pathway分析平台從龐大基因晶片數據中解析出奈米材料暴露時可能造成細胞毒性的分子機制)

    To develop mathematical modeling to systematically discover novel functional modules and interactions in regulatory and metabolic networks
