David Ngai, With an exceptional h-index of 7 and a recent h-index of 7 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of Toronto, specializes in the field of Cell Biology, Mechanotransduction, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Disease.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Lactate helps in tissue repair by promoting efferocytosis-induced macrophage proliferation

Efferocytosis-induced lactate enables the proliferation of pro-resolving macrophages to mediate tissue repair

The role of efferocytosis‐fueled macrophage metabolism in the resolution of inflammation

PFKFB2-mediated glycolysis promotes lactate-driven continual efferocytosis by macrophages

Efferocytosis induces a transient burst of glycolysis in macrophages to promote lactate-driven binding and continuing removal of apoptotic cells

Stiffness-responsive feedback autoregulation of DDR1 expression is mediated by a DDR1-YAP/TAZ axis

The Role of the Discoidin Domain Receptor-1 (DDR1) in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell (VSMC) Mechanosensing

Discoidin domain receptor 1-deletion ameliorates fibrosis and promotes adipose tissue beiging, brown fat activity, and increased metabolic rate in a mouse model of …
