Research Interest
Welcome to the integrated laboratory of Metabolism, Obesity, Diabetes (iMOD)–Suh laboratory!
Our research focuses on understanding the processes that are involved in the regulation and execution of metabolism. While we are interested in understanding metabolism from a variety of angles, the lab currently focuses on adipose, muscle, brain and exocrine gland function in normal and pathological states. Our research primarily utilizes mouse models along with various cell and molecular biological tools to address questions in the following areas.
1. PPARgamma-FGF1 axis in adipose tissue remodeling and metabolic flexibility
2. PPARdelta-FGF1 axis in muscle regeneration and aging
3. Brain FGF signaling in nutrient and metabolic responses
4. Adipose secretome analysis by proximity ligation
5. Adipose tissue aging and senescence mechanisms
6. Mechanisms of Tph1 in adipose tissue thermogenesis
7. Mechanisms of ERRgamma in exocrine gland function
8. Discovery of novel pathways involved in CNS injury and repair
9. Adipose tissue dedifferentiation mediated by growth signaling pathways
10. Mechanisms of FGF mediated radiomitigation during intestinal injury
We are seeking talented and motivated students and post-docs to join our research team and inquiries can be made by directly contacting Dr. Jae Myoung Suh at jmsuh@kaist.ac.kr
