Guangping Chen

Guangping Chen is an Associate Professor in Physiological Sciences at Oklahoma State University since 2006, focusing on biochemical mechanisms related to xenobiotic metabolism, estrogen signaling, and sulfotransferase enzyme regulation. His work bridges toxicology, pharmacology, and molecular biology.

• PhD in Biochemical Sciences from the University of Texas at Austin (1994)

Research spans estrogen-dependent breast cancer metabolism, drug-xenobiotic interactions via sulfotransferase enzymes, and nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems. Recent studies analyze pesticide effects on PPAR signaling and cancer drug impacts on sulfation pathways.

His 15 most recent articles (2014-2023) address topics like:

• Estrogen sulfotransferase regulation in tumors
• Temperature-responsive nanoparticle catalysts
• Modulation of sulfotransferase activity by micronutrients and pharmaceuticals

Key collaborator in Chemico-Biological Interactions, Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics, and other journals.

He teaches graduate courses including Comparative Biomedical Sciences and Biochemical Toxicology, while serving on peer review panels for the American Cancer Society and Israel Science Foundation. Funding includes OSU Research Jumpstart Grants for tumoroid culture and ghrelin metabolism studies.
