研究亮點

  本中心的研究領域包括分子細胞信號傳遞機轉、基因及表觀基因調控、能量代謝、以及聚焦於腫瘤免疫微環境的研究等,目標是達到早期發現,預防控制,逐步發展出創新且有效的治療策略,並藉由本校強大的臨床資源,針對高挑戰性的困難癌症如三陰性乳癌、肝癌、胰臟癌、腦癌、肺癌、頭頸癌及大腸直腸癌,積極推動臨床試驗、專利及技轉,將生醫產業導入本中心的研究遠景。

  近期本校洪校長團隊所發現之去除醣基的分子技術,能夠精準檢測腫瘤之PD-L1蛋白,有效提升癌症病人對免疫療法的成功率。另一方面,針對細胞外泌體的研究,讓我們了解到癌細胞如何經由遠距離投射系統傳遞抗藥功能及遠方轉移,進而於肺癌抗藥性的議題做出重大發現,根據上述堅實的研究基礎,提出新穎的合併治療策略。此外,洪校長團隊透過國際合作發現肝癌治療新標靶,該成果發表於近期頂尖國際期刊“自然”《Nature》,在精準醫療研究史上寫下嶄新的一頁。
