Scholar-generated biography
Peng Li's research focuses on lipid metabolism and the development of metabolic diseases. Their work explores the molecular mechanisms underlying lipid droplet formation, regulation of lipid homeostasis, and the role of lipid metabolism in metabolic disorders. Key areas include the function of proteins such as Fsp27, Cidea, and Perilipin1 in lipid droplet dynamics and adipose tissue biology. Li's studies also investigate the interplay between lipid metabolism and cellular processes like apoptosis and autophagy. Their research contributes to understanding the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and the potential therapeutic targets for metabolic diseases.
