研究方向：

　　本课题组从事天然免疫抗感染应答调控、肿瘤干细胞调控和肿瘤免疫治疗研究。主要研究内容分为天然免疫细胞新亚群发现与抗感染机制、非编码RNA与免疫调控、以及肿瘤干细胞调控与肿瘤免疫等三个方向。

　　一、天然免疫细胞新亚群发现与抗感染/抗肿瘤机制

　　我们发现鉴定了数个天然免疫识别受体，揭示了其抗感染免疫识别应答作用（Nat Immunol，2015、2016、2018; Cell Stem Cell，2013）；揭示了免疫细胞颗粒酶抗感染/抗肿瘤的作用及结构基础（Cell，2003; Nat Immunol，2003; Mol Cell Biol，2002；Blood，2006；Cell Death Differ，2006、2007、2009、2012a、2012b、2013；J Immunol，2006、2009a、2009b、2009c、2010、2012a、2012b、2013、2015）。发现鉴定了NKB、ILCreg、Tuft-2等数个天然免疫细胞的新亚群，发现新亚群NKB细胞通过分泌IL-18活化NK和ILC1细胞，参与抗感染免疫应答（Immunity 2016、2017）。发现一群新的ILC调节细胞亚群（ILCreg），通过分泌IL-10参与调控肠道炎症转归和肠癌的发生（Cell，2017、2018; Cell Res，2020）,发现Tuft-2细胞维持肠道稳态维持的机制（Immunity 2022）。我们将利用单细胞测序等新技术，继续发现鉴定天然免疫细胞新亚群及其功能。我们将深入探索新亚群ILCreg的谱系建立机制，探究调控ILC细胞亚型转变的调节机制。探究生理及病理诱导ILC细胞亚型转变的调控作用和分子机制，探明ILC亚型相互转变对肠道疾病发生的调控作用。揭示天然免疫抗感染/抗肿瘤应答调控及可塑性机制，以期为感染性疾病及肿瘤的防治提供理论依据。

　　二、非编码RNA与免疫调控

　　非编码RNA（ncRNA）的发现和功能机制是生物医学领域的研究前沿。我们近期发现，环形RNA cia-cGAS在免疫前体HSC细胞核内结合DNA识别受体cGAS抑制其活化，维持HSC的稳态（Immunity，2018）。发现环形RNA circPan3和IL-13R mRNA结合调节ILC2介导的IL-13R信号，维持肠道稳态（Nat Immunol，2019）。发现LncGATA6在肠道干细胞的自我更新维持和肠癌发生中发挥重要作用（Nat Cell Biol，2018）。还发现lncKdm2b通过招募NURF复合物活化转录因子Zfp292的表达，维持ILC3细胞的扩增和免疫应答效应（Nat Immunol，2017; EMBO J，2018）。发现环形RNA circZbtb20和circTmem241调控ILC3细胞分化和功能的新机制（Nature Commun，2022、CMI，2022）。我们将利用RNA-seq、高通量筛选等技术，鉴定新型ncRNA，探究ncRNA对ILC细胞的谱系建立、激活应答、免疫效应等调控作用，揭示其发挥功能的分子机制，阐释ncRNA与免疫疾病的致病关系，为疾病诊断和干预提供新靶点和新策略。

　　三、肿瘤干细胞与肿瘤免疫调控

　　肿瘤干细胞具有超强的致瘤能力和自我更新潜能，靶向肿瘤干细胞是肿瘤治愈的新希望。我们鉴定了肝癌组织中共表达CD13和CD133的少量肿瘤干细胞（Cell Stem Cell，2015），揭示了数个重要基因参与调控肝癌干细胞的自我更新机制（JCI，2015；Nature Commun，2015）。率先鉴定发现了多个新lncRNA对肝癌干细胞自我更新维持的调控作用（Cell Stem Cell，2015；NSMB，2016；Nature Commun，2016；J Heptol，2018、2019; Cancer Res，2017）。还鉴定发现多个新circRNA对肝癌干细胞自我更新维持的调控作用（Mol Cancer，2021；JCI，2021）。还率先鉴定发现tRNA m1A修饰在肝癌干细胞中异常增高并阐释了m1A修饰调控肿瘤干细胞干性维持的新机制（Nature Commun，2021）。发现肠道菌群代谢物调控肠道干细胞和肠癌干细胞的新机制（Neuron，2022、Cell Res，2022）。课题组还鉴定了识别膀胱癌干细胞的新靶标抗体（Clin Cancer Res，2014），揭示了新靶标抗体干预膀胱癌生长的机制（Cancer Res，2016）。基于新靶标抗体，研发了膀胱癌的靶向抗体药物和早期诊断试剂盒。我们将聚焦消化道肿瘤，继续鉴定发现新的肿瘤干细胞标志物，研究肿瘤微环境调控肿瘤干细胞重编程和自我更新机制，研发靶向肿瘤干细胞的抗肿瘤药物，以期发现有效的肿瘤免疫治疗策略，普惠肿瘤患者。
