    Dr. Chen's current research focuses on the signal pathway of cell death and its role and functional mechanism in cigarette smoking induced lung injury and inflammation, as well as their correlation with lung diseases, such as COPD, lung cancer.

    His current studies engaged into the interplay of apoptosis, necroptosis, and lung inflammatory response, including activation of macrophage, neutrophil and T cells. On the other hand, he is interested in studying how elastases (ELANE, MMP12, et al) released in the inflammatory microenvironment contribute to the progression of COPD and lung cancer.

    The long term goal is to identify novel molecular targets and treatment strategies to improve COPD, lung cancer therapy. He is also interested in studying the role and molecular mechanisms of aging in the progression of COPD and tumorigenesis.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
