S11 Obesity : Central and peripheral interplay
for energy and glucose metabolism
Saturday 15 October 08:30~10:30 | Place: Convention hall C
Chairs: Yong Seong Kim, Soon Jib Yoo
    • Recent evidence suggests that intimate communication between the central nervous system and peripheral metabolic organs is critical for the homeostatic control of energy balance and blood glucose levels. This session has four outstanding speakers from the United States and Korea. The first speaker Prof. Young-Bum Kim from the Harvard Medical School will present how the brain controls blood glucose levels. The second speaker Professor Jong Woo Shon from the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology will present the mechanism of feeding regulation through the hypothalamic serotonergic circuit. The third speaker Professor Gary Schwartz will talk about the importance of gut afferent system in delivering nutritional information to the brain. Finally, Professor Ki-Woo Kim at the Yonsei-Wonju University will present his recent findings on the regulation of energy balance and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis by central dopaminergic system.

    • Recently, many pathophysiological mechanisms have been suggested for links between metabolic diseases and an impaired control of energy balance, including gut microbiota, autophagy and immune response. In this session, 5 outstanding speakers will cover each issue. For the first topic, Prof. Rossignol from INSERM will talk about bioenergetic modulation in rare and common disease. Next, Prof. Lee from Yonsei University will talk the effect of autophagy modulation on the whole body metabolism. Thirdly, Dr. Ryu from EPFL will introduce the recent progress on the role of gut microbiota metabolites on host health. Fourthly, Prof. Shong from Chungnam University will share the current understanding about the critical role of Th2 cytokines in systemic glucose homeostasis. Lastly, Dr. Fan from Salk Institute will talk about the role of PPARδ in muscle and its potential implication in metabolic syndrome.
