簡歷

李敏教授,醫學博士。為中醫內科學、中藥神經藥理學、中醫藥治療腦神經退行性疾病專家。目前擔任香港浸會大學中醫藥學院副院長(教學)、中醫與生物醫學雙學位課程主任和高智明伉儷柏金遜症研究中心主任。李教授1985年本科畢業于河南中醫藥大學,1988年碩士畢業于廣州中醫藥大學,2001年在日本東海大學醫學院獲得醫學博士。李教授主要從事神經系統退行性疾病包括柏金遜症和阿氏海默症的中醫臨床治療、中藥藥理研究與新藥研發工作。李教授的研究團隊先後開展了中藥複方治療帕金森病、阿氏海默症的隨機對照雙盲的臨床研究,從中藥中篩選小分子天然自噬誘導劑治療神經退行性疾病的分子作用機制及治療腦神經退行性疾病的中藥新藥研發工作。

 

研究領域:

 

基礎研究:

  • 神經細胞自噬/溶酶體功能異常在老年神經退行性疾病(包括柏金遜症、老年癡呆症)中的發病機制研究;
  • 中藥複方及中藥小分子化合物保護神經細胞的藥效、作用機制及分子靶點研究;
  • 神經退行性疾病相關的代謝組學、蛋白組學的研究。

 

臨床研究:

中藥複方對柏金遜症和阿氏海默症的臨床療效與安全性評價研究。

 

新藥研發:

從中藥複方及中藥小分子化合物研發治療或預防老年神經退行性疾病(帕金森病和阿氏海默症)的中藥新藥和中藥保健品。
