Synopsis of recent research by authors named "You Joung Kim"
- You Joung Kim's research primarily focuses on the effects of molecular signaling pathways and stem cell mechanisms on retinal development and degeneration, as highlighted in studies investigating the role of Wnt/β-Catenin signaling and mTORC1 in retinal progenitor cells.
- Kim has also explored the impact of retinoid metabolism in the retinal pigment epithelium, particularly concerning Pten-deficiency, emphasizing the importance of retinol homeostasis in preventing retinal degeneration.
- Additionally, Kim's work extends to the realm of dementia epidemiology, conducting systematic reviews and population studies to assess prevalence rates and therapeutic interventions for dementia within the Korean population, thus bridging neurobiology and clinical outcomes.
