Overview

Nan Chiang is a researcher affiliated with Brigham and Women's Hospital in the United States. Their work predominantly spans the fields of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, and Immunology and Microbiology, focusing on understanding molecular mechanisms related to inflammation, immune response, and lipid mediators.

Their publication record includes key topics such as:

  • Fatty Acid Research and Health
  • Immune Response and Inflammation
  • S100 Proteins and Annexins
  • Antimicrobial Peptides and Activities
  • Eicosanoids and Hypertension Pharmacology
  • Neuropeptides and Animal Physiology
  • Asthma and respiratory diseases

Nan Chiang has frequently collaborated with several co-authors including Charles N. Serhan, Magnus Bäck, Sven-Erik Dahlén, Jeffrey M. Drazen, and Jilly F. Evans.

Their work has been published in a range of venues. The most common publication outlets are:

  • IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology CITE
  • British Journal of Pharmacology
  • Progress in Lipid Research
  • Essays in Biochemistry
  • Blood

Recent papers authored or co-authored by Nan Chiang include:

  • "Polyunsaturated fatty acids and fatty acid-derived lipid mediators: Recent advances in the understanding of their biosynthesis, structures, and functions," 2022, Progress in Lipid Research
  • "THE CONCISE GUIDE TO PHARMACOLOGY 2021/22: G protein-coupled receptors," 2021, British Journal of Pharmacology
  • "Specialized pro-resolving mediator network: an update on production and actions," 2020, Essays in Biochemistry
  • "The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24: G protein-coupled receptors," 2023, British Journal of Pharmacology
