Department	Professor	Research Keyword
Integrative Physiology		Our research focuses on the regulatory mechanisms of the plastic alterations in skeletal muscles and other musculoskeletal systems. 1. Intracellular signaling pathways regulating skeletal muscle hypertrophy. 2. Identification of factors inducing skeletal muscle weakness and atrophy associated with wasting diseases including cancer cachexia and the efficacy of therapeutic exercise intervention. 3. Molecular basis for the development of skeletal muscle atrophy resistance in hibernating animals (Why hibernating animals are able to maintain physical function without becoming bedridden status?). 4. Functional regulation of skeletal muscle and motor function by the circadian rhythm. 5. Development of optimal intervention strategies to prevent and improve frailty and sarcopenia.
