Dr. Wen Qiu is currently an associate professor at Department of Immunology of Nanjing Medical University. He is exploring the role of complement especially C5b-9 in the induction of glomerular mesangial cell (GMC) apoptosis, inflammation and proliferation in rat Thy-1 nephritis as a widely used model of human mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN) and its mechanisms. These include signal transduction, microRNA regulation, transcriptional factor regulation. He is also exploring the effects of post-transcriptional regulation such as ubiquitination and acetylation on the activation of signaling molecules, transcription factors and histones.
