Ruohan Wu studies how immune cells, especially T cells, regulate their metabolism (the chemical processes that generate energy and building blocks), and how this affects immune function and cancer progression. Work includes examining polyamine (small molecules involved in cell growth) and adenosine (a signaling molecule) pathways, as well as antioxidant and metabolic reprogramming in T cells and cancer cells. Some earlier work also touched on environmental toxicology methods in fish liver tissue.
