Research interests
Dr Min's principal research interests focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms of inflammation responses during the development of diabetic complications which investigating a): the role of monocyte/macrophage in diabetes and diabetic complications. b): the role of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)/ their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) involved in the development of diabetic complications. c): the targeted gene therapy and combination therapy on control the development of diabetic complications.
Themes
