Pengli Bu, Ph.D. serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences within the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences at St. John's University, having joined in Fall 2022. Previously, she held an Assistant Professor position at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science (2019-2022).
Her educational background includes:
- Ph.D. in Toxicology from University of Kansas Medical Center
- M.S. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from Peking Union Medical College, China
- B.S. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from Shandong University, China
Dr. Bu's research focuses on reproductive pharmacology and toxicology, with emphasis on harnessing herbal medicine for Leydig cell protection, investigating transporters in metabolic diseases, and conducting safety assessments of biopharmaceuticals. Her work bridges molecular mechanisms with therapeutic applications, particularly in endocrine and reproductive systems.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals strong trends in reproductive toxicology, molecular mechanisms of drug action, and transporter biology. Her work frequently employs advanced cellular models including Caco-2 and yeast systems, with significant contributions to understanding cytokine regulation in endometrial biology, perfluorochemical impacts on gene expression, and herbal compound mechanisms.
Dr. Bu maintains active research in pharmaceutical sciences with consistent publication output in high-impact journals including Journal of Biological Chemistry, Toxicology, and Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics.
