Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Haihong Zhang's research focuses on molecular mechanisms underlying various diseases and conditions. Zhang has investigated the role of overexpressed PKM2 in promoting macrophage phagocytosis and atherosclerosis, and the impact of upregulated microRNA-21 on lymphatic malformation endothelial cell proliferation by inhibiting PDCD4. Further work has explored the presence of estrogen and progesterone receptors in infantile hemangiomas and dysregulated TGF-β/BMP signaling in extracranial arteriovenous malformations. Zhang has also contributed to studies on deep learning applications in pediatric neurodevelopmental imaging and on vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty. Collaborations include shared publications with Gresham T. Richter, Graham M. Strub, Ravi W. Sun, and Syed Hassan Mehdi from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
