Abstract

The human heart is a unique organ that beats without being replaced for nearly 100 years from birth to death. Our research focuses on how to control the quality of cells and their components (organella and proteins) to understand how the cardiac muscle cells that make up the pumping function can adapt to the daily-exposed environmental stresses, and what triggers the heart to become vulnerable to environmental stress. Mitochondria are intracellular organelle that produce the energy necessary for biological activities using oxygen. Recent studies have revealed that reduced oxygen utilization in mitochondria is associated with diabetes, aging, and cancer progression, while overuse of oxygen also increases the risk of disease development. Our research focuses on the sulfur dynamics as a biological molecule for efficient oxygen utilization. In this seminar, I will introduce the effects of sulfur metabolism and dynamics on cardiac stress resistance, and discuss its contribution to the 'One Health' concept, which integrates the health of all animals, plants and the global environment.
