Program details

Main symposia
S2 Basic research 1 Islet biology Chair(s): In-Kyu Lee, Miriam Cnop
Friday 20 October, 09:00~10:40
Room 2 (3F)
The Islets of Langerhans, commonly known as "islets," are small clusters of cells within the pancreas. They play a critical role in maintaining glucose homeostasis. This session consists of a carefully chosen collection of lectures that aim to clarify the obscure mechanisms behind the function of islets - presenting new perspectives on RNA processing, autophagy modulation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and ciliary control.
Lori Sussel S2-1
Lori Sussel University of Colorado, USA
RNA processing: novel mechanism modulating islet beta cell secretion
Hye Seung Jung S2-2
Hye Seung Jung Seoul National University, Korea
Down-regulation of PERK in human islets for diabetes treatment
Jaemin Lee S2-3
Jaemin Lee DGIST, Korea
ER stress and its associated signaling modulate incretin receptor signaling
Jing Hughes S2-4
Jing Hughes Washington University, USA
Ciliary control of islet function
S6 Translational research 1 Interorgan crosstalk for homeostasis Chair(s): Young-Bum Kim, Minho Shong
Friday 20 October, 16:00~17:40
Room 2 (3F)
Our body employs both humoral and neuronal systems to facilitate communication between organs, playing a pivotal role in maintaining intricate homeostasis. This session brings together four esteemed experts, each poised to illuminate distinct facets of this intricate interplay. Attendees are invited to embark on a journey of discovery, delving into the novel mechanisms underlying interorgan crosstalk axis modulation and its consequential impact on glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism homeostasis.
Jong Woo Sohn S6-1
Jong-Woo Sohn KAIST, Korea
Melanocortin regulation of autonomic nervous system
Minho Shong S6-2
Minho Shong KAIST, Korea
The GDF15-GFRAL axis controls systemic homeostasis in wasting syndrome
Toshiyasu Sasaoka S6-3
Toshiyasu Sasaoka University of Toyama, Japan
Prevention of diabetes by metabolic adaptation of glucose and lipid utilization via activation of wakefulness and olfactory system
Jihyun Kim S6-4
Jihyun Kim Yonsei University, Korea
Gastrointestinal microbiome homeostasis in health, disease, and aging
S9 Basic research 2 Puzzling the last piece of liver diseases Chair(s): Jongsoon Lee, Hail Kim
Saturday 21 October, 09:00~10:40
Room 2 (3F)
The liver is a metabolic hub, contributing to metabolic diseases. Although both nonalcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver diseases have been extensively investigated, there are still several missing pieces. For instance, the evolution of NAFLD into hepatocellular carcinoma remains a puzzle. Similarly, is there a sex disparity in NAFLD? Is there a simple method to predict patients with NASH? This session will feature four presenters who are prepared to clarify these questions.
Utpal B. Pajvani S9-1
Utpal Pajvani Columbia University, USA
Mechanisms of NASH-induced HCC
Sang Geon Kim S9-2
Sang Geon Kim Dongguk University, Korea
G13 axis in the network of liver and muscle energy metabolism
Youngmi Jung S9-3
Youngmi Jung Pusan National University, Korea
Sex disparity in progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Dongryeol Ryu S9-4
Dongryeol Ryu GIST, Korea
Machine learning-driven discovery of a novel diagnostic index for NASH
S13 Translational research 2 New paradigms of cancer metabolism Chair(s): Kwan Woo Lee, Bong-Soo Cha
Saturday 21 October, 13:00~14:40
Room 2 (3F)
Metabolic derangement and mitochondrial dysfunction are a hallmark of tumor pathogenesis. In this session, four renowned speakers will provide groundbreaking insights into the altered metabolic pathways driving cancer growth, proliferation, and survival. Uncovering intricate interplay of oncogenes, tumor suppressors, and metabolic enzymes would provide innovative therapeutic approaches to target metabolic vulnerabilities in cancer cells. Stay at the forefront of cutting-edge research reshaping our understanding of cancer metabolism and its potential implications in cancer treatment.
