    (2) In 2012, was selected into the 2011 annual New Century Outstanding Talents Support Plan.

    3. Representative Research Achievements

    (1) Published a paper named Biomimetic doxorubicin/ginsenoside co-loading nanosystem for chemoimmunotherapy of acute myeloid leukemiadeveloped a biomimetic nanosystem (DR@PLip) based on platelet membrane (PM) coating and doxorubicin (DOX)/ginsenoside (Rg3) co-loading to potentiate the local-to-systemic chemoimmunotherapy for AML.The participation of Rg3 was proved to enhance the tumor sensitivity to DOX, thus initiating the anti-tumor immune activation and effectively combating the leukemia cells hiding in the bone marrow.

    (2) Published a paper named Low molecular weight heparin modified bone targeting liposomes fororthotopic osteosarcoma and breast cancer bone metastatic tumors.Utilized the alendronate (ALN) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) modified liposomes to deliver the antitumor drug doxorubicin (DOX), where traditionally-believed non-active drug carrier, targeting moiety could also exhibit biological functions and realize anti-tumor and anti-metastasis efficiency synergistically with the antitumor drug. Besides, both the orthotopic osteosarcoma model and bone metastasis cancer model were adopted to evaluate the in vivo efficacy.
