Research Topics

We are studying food science and biodynamics to

  • characterize physiological and pathophysiological roles of covalently-modified proteins generated during non-enzymatic chemical reaction, such as lipid peroxidation and glycation.
  • establish an authentic role of dietary antioxidants.
  • explore dietary factors regulating immune and inflammatory responses.
  • explore regulation of transcription factors responding to dietary environment.
