RNA化学修饰在基因表达调控、细胞命运决定等关键生命过程中发挥“分子开关”作用,不仅拓展了RNA生物学的研究边界,也揭示了全新的调控机制与研究方向。RNA修饰在多种生理与病理过程中具有关键调控功能,使其相关通路与因子成为重要的诊疗靶点,为疾病干预提供新的策略与切入点。当前,RNA修饰研究处于快速发展但机制尚未充分解析的阶段,亟需在新技术、新功能与新机制方面持续突破。基于此,课题组拟开展如下研究方向:1. 发展空间单细胞核酸修饰多组学检测技术,解析核酸修饰在组织微环境中的时空异质性与特异性分布规律;2. 推进多学科交叉融合研究,构建并阐明核酸修饰在重要生理与病理过程中的动态调控网络与功能图谱;3. 聚焦细胞表面RNA修饰,系统解析其发生机制,建立检测方法,阐明生物学功能,并探索可操控与应用转化的策略。
RNA chemical modifications function as“molecular switches”in essential life processes such as the regulation of gene expression and cell fate determination, not only expanding the boundaries of RNA biology but also revealing entirely new regulatory mechanisms and research directions. Across diverse physiological and pathological contexts, RNA modifications exert critical regulatory functions, making their associated pathways and factors important diagnostic and therapeutic targets and providing new strategies for disease intervention. Although the field of RNA modification research is developing rapidly, many underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently understood, highlighting an urgent need for continued breakthroughs in new technologies, functions, and mechanisms. To this end, our research group will focus on the following directions: 1. Develop spatial single-cell multi-omics technologies to delineate the spatiotemporal heterogeneity and context-specific distribution patterns of RNA modifications within tissue microenvironments. 2. Promote multidisciplinary, integrative research to construct and elucidate dynamic regulatory networks and functional maps of nucleic acid modifications in key physiological and pathological processes. 3. Focus on cell-surface RNA modifications to systematically dissect their mechanisms of occurrence, establish detection methods, clarify their biological functions, and explore strategies for controllable manipulation and applications.
