Personal profile

The Yin Lab focuses on the gut-liver crosstalk and its impact on MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease) from the perspective of the heterogeneity of intestinal absorption epithelial cells and novel gut/bacterial derived factors.

With the support of NSFC, CAST and Beijing Nova Program, 16 papers were published as the first/corresponding author in the past 5 y such as  Nature Communications  (2),  Advanced Science, Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B ,  EBioMedicine  (2),  eLife ,  FASEB J , and  Life Metabolism . Editorial comments on our findings have been published in prestigious journals. Major achievements include: 1) Revealing new mechanisms of entero-liver crosstalk: the preferential differentiation of intestinal absorption epithelium and epithelium-derived exosomes regulate the occurrence and development of MASLD. 2) Defining a novel hormonal crosstalk between the stomach and liver. Gastric endocrine cells can sense the overall energy levels to alter MASLD.
