Our research interest focuses on the fundamental mechanisms underlying obesity, diabetes, and its related diseases including cancer. Currently we are investigating the regulatory role of protein quality control, particularly protein degradation induced by autophagy and proteasome, in obesity-related cancer development and adipocyte function. We also study the crosstalk between autophagy and proteasome in cancer cells and adipocytes.
