Suzuki Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab searches for ways to prevent disease by studying exercise, immunity, and inflammation.
AboutAbout the lab
Tracing how exercise affects immunity and inflammation.
The Suzuki Lab studies preventive medicine, which aims to prevent the onset and worsening of disease by removing its causes.
Using exercise and training as models, the lab examines how the body responds and adapts to stress.
Using white blood cells and cytokines as clues, the lab develops methods to measure immune function and the development of inflammation.
The lab also tests whether antioxidants and functional foods can suppress reactive oxygen species and inflammation.
Key terms
- Preventive medicine
- The field of medicine that deals with theories and measures for removing the causes of disease and preventing its onset and worsening
- Cytokines
- Proteins that cells release to communicate with one another, which regulate inflammation and immunity
- Reactive oxygen species
- Highly reactive forms of oxygen produced in the body, which damage cells when they increase excessively

ResearchResearch themes
The lab uses exercise and training as a window into the mechanisms of the body's stress response and adaptation. It develops methods to measure immunity and inflammation, and its work ranges from basic research to applications such as control of inflammation with antioxidants.
*Illustrative imageStress response and adaptation during exercise
Using exercise and training as models, the lab analyzes the mechanisms by which the body responds to stress and gradually adapts to it.
*Illustrative imageDeveloping ways to measure immunity and inflammation
Focusing on white blood cell function and cytokines, the lab develops methods to measure and evaluate immune status and inflammatory responses.
*Illustrative imageControlling inflammation with antioxidants
The lab studies, from both basic and applied perspectives, how antioxidants and drugs suppress reactive oxygen species metabolism and inflammation.
*Illustrative imageLifestyle-related diseases and exercise therapy
The lab examines ways to prevent and treat lifestyle-related diseases. It also investigates the mechanisms by which exercise therapy works.
