Ho Kim 교수의 연구실은 환경 요인과 세포 내 산화 스트레스 반응 간의 상호작용을 중심으로 연구를 진행하고 있습니다. 특히 갑상선세포에서 과산화수소를 제거하는 퍼옥시리드옥시나제(Prx) 단백질의 기능과 온도 변화가 건강에 미치는 영향을 분석하며, 환경적 요인(대기오염, 녹지공간 등)이 정신건강에 미치는 영향을 생태학적·사회적 맥락에서 탐구하고 있습니다. 이는 환경 건강과 질병 예방을 위한 정책적 인사이트를 도출하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있습니다.

Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) play an important role in regulating cellular differentiation and proliferation in several types of mammalian cells. One mechanism for this action involves modulation of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-mediated cellular responses. This report examines the expression of Prx I and Prx II in thyroid cells and their roles in eliminating H(2)O(2) produced in response to thyrotropin (TSH). Prx I and Prx II are constitutively expressed in FRTL-5 thyroid cells. Prx I expression, but n
The authors conducted a time-series analysis to estimate the acute effects of high temperature in 6 cities in Korea and to compare thresholds of temperature on daily mortality among the cities. They examined the association between total mortality and the daily mean temperature and heat index during the summers in Korea from 1994 to 2003. The threshold temperature was estimated to be between 27.0 degrees C and 29.7 degrees C for 4 cities. For a daily mean temperature increase of 1 degrees C abov
Relevant demographic and environmental conditions need to be understood before tailoring policies to improve mental health. Using community health survey data from 25 communities in Seoul, 2013, cross-sectional associations between mental health and community level environments were assessed. Mental health outcomes (self-rated stress levels (SRS) and depressive symptoms (DS)) were analyzed. Community environmental factors included green space, green facilities, and annual PM<sub>10</sub> level (
