Cell Biology

Professor: SAKAGUCHI Masakiyo 

Cells are fundamental and essential units of life in all living organisms. Study of the cells, therefore poses mechanisms of how diseases can be caused and developed. We are approaching to solve cancer metastasis and neurodegenerative diseases at cellular, molecular and individual levels based on key molecules we discovered and to develop innovative antidotes against these diseases.

Keywords

Cancer metastasis, Inflammation, Cancer microenvironment, Neurodegeneration, Mitochondrial homeostasis, Signal transduction
