IntroductionDr. Che-Hong Chen, a molecular biologist and geneticist, has been working with Dr. Daria Mochly-Rosen at Stanford University for the past 24 years. Dr. Chens early research includes the characterization of the first intra-cellular receptor for protein kinase C and its protein-protein interaction with other signaling molecules. Dr. Chens past research interests focused on the role of ethanol-mediated cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injuries. These studies led to his discovery of the important detoxifying function of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in the heart. More recently, Dr. Chen has been studying the ALDH gene family and its association with human diseases. By high-throughput screening of small molecule libraries, Dr. Chen pioneered the discovery of a class of novel enzyme activators and inhibitors of aldehyde dehydrogenase.
