	We have received a gorgeous box of chocolate with no name of the sender. Assuming that this is something with a wish to celebrate or support our research, for whom sent us such a kind gift, we really appreciate it and will continue doing our best!

	We found that MMF could cause hepatotoxicity associated with mitochondrial abnormality in some liver transplant patients. Using that information, more safe and effective treatment could be developed!

Integrated GTP Metabology: The Sasaki Lab represents a team of scientists dedicated to research on links between GTP metabolism and human diseases, in particular cancers and metabolic diseases.

We discovered the existence of a GTP energy sensing kinase, which has the effect of propelling tumor growth (Molecular Cell, 2016 (related articles: 1, 2, 3, 4)), and  tumor promoting reprogram of GTP metabolism  (Nature Cell Biology, 2019 (related articles: 1, 2, 3, 4*, 5*.   *Japanese). A special TV program for our GTP research is filmed by NHK WORLD (video).

We continue to investigate the GTP-metabolism—its regulation and roles of GTP-energy sensor—by taking the "GTP" way! 

















Sasaki Lab’s "GTP" Way:
Geek
We investigate GTP, GTP and GTP!
Together
Collaboratin with wonderful colleagures! 
Passion
Absolute requirement for success!
