Endocrinology and Metabolism Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab investigates the pathology of endocrine and metabolic disorders using models such as glucagon gene-modified models.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the mechanisms of endocrinology and metabolism.
The Endocrinology and Metabolism Lab belongs to the Division of Biological Adaptation and Protection at the Research Institute of Environmental Medicine.
The lab conducts research in endocrine metabolism and molecular biology using models in which the glucagon gene has been modified.
Its current research topics also include the pathophysiology of malignant tumors of the endocrine system, the mechanisms by which endoderm-derived cells differentiate, and the pathophysiology of hereditary endocrine diseases.
Its research keywords include endocrinology, pancreatic islets, the thyroid, diabetes, cell differentiation, and transcriptional regulation.
