Prof. Minjie Wang | Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutical Science | Research Excellence Award

Inner Mongolia Medical University | China

Prof. Minjie Wang is an accomplished biomedical researcher with a strong scholarly record, reflected by an h-index of 6, 15 peer-reviewed documents, and 93 citations. His research focuses on the discovery and functional characterization of active substances from Traditional Chinese Medicine and Mongolian Medicine, with particular emphasis on the pathological mechanisms of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and the identification of therapeutic drug targets. A major theme of his work is the role of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in vascular inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, metabolic syndrome, and adipose tissue remodeling. His studies integrate advanced in vivo animal models—including atherosclerosis, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, arrhythmia, and cerebral ischemia—with comprehensive in vitro approaches encompassing cell culture, molecular biology, immunohistochemistry, and biochemical analysis. Prof. Wang has published extensively in high-impact journals such as European Heart Journal, Cell Death & Disease, Frontiers in Microbiology, Acta Pharmacologica Sinica, and European Journal of Pharmacology, contributing significant insights into vascular biology, inflammation, metabolism, and translational pharmacology. His work also includes patented innovations related to AMPK activators for vascular inflammation and endothelial protection, underscoring both scientific depth and translational relevance.
