Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Hongwei Xu's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying multiple myeloma and its precursor stages. Recent publications investigate the role of extracellular vesicles, gene signatures for risk prediction, and the impact of specific proteins like Cystatin M/E on bone resorption in the context of multiple myeloma. Xu's work also explores immune microenvironment alterations in multiple myeloma and its precursor stages, utilizing multi-omics approaches and single nuclei multiomic profiling. Additionally, research has examined disparities in survival for Black Americans with multiple myeloma and identified risk factors for myeloma progression in this population. Earlier work includes a systematic review on the effect of tryptophan restriction in irritable bowel syndrome therapy.
