Research Interest
- The expression of proteinases in the degenerative joint diseases including temporamandibular joint disorder, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis to seek the potential marker(s) for disease diagnosis and treatment.
- The expression of proteinases in amphibian limb regeneration using regeneration capable and incapable animal models such as the frog Xenopus laevis, and the axolotl Ambystoma mexicanum.
- The induction of the regenerative ability of adult stem cells, including pulp stem cells and gingival fibroblasts, in order to restore the abilities of these cells to regenerate the tooth, the gingival soft tissue and the periodontal bone.
