Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Suhjin Yang"
- Suhjin Yang's recent research focuses on the regulatory mechanisms of olfactory receptors and their roles beyond traditional olfaction, particularly in non-olfactory tissues like the liver and skin, contributing to processes such as collagen synthesis and lipid metabolism.
- Through various studies, Yang has identified specific transcription factors that influence the expression of olfactory receptors, notably OR51B5, and investigated the effects of MOR23 deficiency on hepatic steatosis, showcasing the receptor's impact on liver health.
- The research also delves into cellular signaling pathways, including the Akt signaling pathway and the modulation of glucocorticoid receptor activity by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), highlighting the intricate relationships between these pathways and skin barrier integrity as well as hormone-related physiological responses.
