Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Zhijun Cao's research investigates mechanisms of disease and potential biomarkers, with a focus on drug-induced toxicities and pain modulation. He has explored the proteomic analysis of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity, identifying heme oxygenase 1 as a potential plasma biomarker for liver injury. Cao has also studied the role of the anterior cingulate cortex in modulating visceral pain responses in rat models, investigating the involvement of specific receptors and vagal afferents. His work includes examining immune response proteins as predictive biomarkers for doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in breast cancer patients. Cao's research has been published in peer-reviewed journals, and his metrics include an h-index of 17, with 60 total publications and 920 citations.
