Susu Zhang
Contributed to a study showing that salvianolic acid B improves motor recovery after spinal cord injury in association with AKT/mTOR/HIF-1α activation and blood-vessel growth
Clinical researcher · Lishui Central Hospital / Wenzhou Medical University, China
Susu Zhang is affiliated with Lishui Central Hospital (Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University). The 2026 study she co-authored combined network pharmacology with a rat spinal-cord-injury model to show that Salvianolic Acid B (predicted by molecular docking to bind AKT1) improves motor recovery in association with activation of the AKT/mTOR/HIF-1α axis and new blood vessel growth at the injury site.
