Biology (07 1000) (first-class master)
Physiology (07 1003)
Physiology is a science that studies the life activities and laws of objects. It mainly studies all kinds of life activities, physiological function mechanisms, activity rules, interactions and connections of cells, tissues, organs and systems under normal conditions. Physiology is an extremely important basic theoretical discipline in life science. The master's degree program in physiology has a strong faculty, a high academic level and a reasonable academic team and talent echelon structure. There are 2 professors, 2 associate professors and 2 young and middle-aged doctoral lecturers, most of whom have doctoral degrees. Since obtaining the master's degree in physiology in 2003, he has actively trained many graduate students, two of whom have been awarded the title of "Excellent Graduate Students in South Guangdong". At present, the tutors of physiology master students undertake many scientific research projects, such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Guangdong Natural Science Foundation, and the Research Start-up Fund for Returned Students from the Ministry of Education. The teachers in our teaching and research section are responsible for modules such as Body Balance, Digestion and Nutrition, Cardiovascular and Respiratory, Functional Experiment and Medical English.
One of the research directions:
Male reproductive physiology and male reproductive pathophysiology currently focus on the pathophysiological mechanism of male reproductive dysfunction related to diabetes. This direction is devoted to studying the pathophysiological mechanism of male reproductive disorders related to diabetes, especially the occurrence and development of diabetic erectile dysfunction. By using electrophysiological and pharmacological experimental techniques, such as in vivo recording of cavernous sinus pressure in rodents, in vitro detection of contraction function of penile cavernous smooth muscle and chronic drug intervention technology realized by micro-osmotic pump, combined with modern molecular biology experimental methods, the new mechanism of diabetic erectile dysfunction was deeply explored from the whole and cellular level. This work is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Guangdong Natural Science Foundation.
Research direction 2:
Cell Physiology Cell Physiology refers to a branch of physiology that studies the functional characteristics and regulation of cells and cell groups at the cellular level. Cells are the basic structure and functional unit of the body. The main contents of classical cell physiology include: the basic chemical composition and molecular structure of cell membrane and the membrane structure of other organelles; Transmembrane transport function of molecules or ions of different substances; The transmembrane signal transduction function is the basis for cells to accept external influences or intercellular interactions; Cell bioelectricity and related phenomena based on the transmembrane movement of different charged ions; And how muscle cells appear mechanical contraction activity under the trigger of cell membrane electrical changes. The main research methods used in this research direction include patch clamp recording, * * focusing/two-photon laser scanning microscope imaging, micro-perfusion drug delivery and local instantaneous micro-pressure drug delivery. The dynamic changes of cell morphology, cell membrane channel current, intracellular calcium signal and intercellular interaction can be directly observed in real time, and the results are intuitive, accurate and reliable, so as to study the related physiological functions and their mechanisms (such as transmembrane signal transduction pathway) in detail. The experimental models or specimens involved in this research direction include: brain slices (neurons and glial cells), pancreatic tissue and pancreatic cells, myocardial cells and so on. In recent years, it has been gradually combined with clinical related disease models and transgenic animal models. The research projects undertaken include: 2 general projects of the National Natural Science Foundation, 2 international cooperation and exchange projects of the National Natural Science Foundation 1, 2 Guangdong Natural Science Foundation projects 1, and 2 research fund projects of the Ministry of Education for returned overseas students 1. Many published papers were included in SCI, and obtained a national invention patent (patent number: ZL 20061KLOC-0/32353.2) and a utility model patent (patent number: ZL 20 1 20230370.6). Have close communication and scientific research cooperation with relevant laboratories at home and abroad.
