S3 Diabetic complications 1 : What’s new in diabetic microvascular complications?
Friday 29 September 09:00~11:00 | Place: Convention Hall C Chairman: Dong-Seop Choi, Kyung Soo Ko
S3 Diabetic complications 1 : What’s new in diabetic microvascular complications?
In this session, the four prominent professors will present their research in the field of diabetic microvascular complications. Prof. Niewczas from the Joslin Diabetes Center will talk about her translational studies using metabolomics and proteomics high throughput platforms to search for determinants of chronic diabetic complications. Prof. Chul-Woo Yang from Catholic university will present his recent research to show the beneficial effects of empagliflozin on pancreatic islet dysfunction and renal injury in experimental model of tacrolimus-induced DM. Third, prof. Seung−Hyun Ko from Catholic university will give a lecture about the clinical implication of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality including her recent publication. Lastly, prof. Nam Hoon Kim from Korea University will deliver a novel safety issue, with respect to diabetic retinopathy, that had been suggested by preclinical and clinical data of DPP-4 inhibitors. From these lectures, we hope you can get several novel concepts in diabetic microvascular complications.

Novel targets and therapies of diabetic cardiovascular disease
Diabetes dramatically increases the risk of various cardiovascular complications, including retinopathy, coronary artery disease, and stroke. In this session, four prominent researchers will give lectures about novel targets and therapies of diabetic cardiovascular disease. Professor Jeong Hun Kim, from Seoul National University, will present recent experimental results of therapeutic applications such as small peptide, small molecule as well as nanoparticles beyond anti-VEGF antibody. In addition, some results of in vivo genome editing with Cas9 RNPs in vision-threatening retinopathy would be provided. Dr. Do Young Park, from Sungkyunkwan University, will focus on the crucial role of pericyte for blood-retinal barrier buildup during development of diabetic retinopathy. Dr. Brian Wong, from Vesalius Research Center in Belgium, will present how endothelial cells change their metabolism during vascular branching and the therapeutic potential of targeting endothelial metabolism for anti-angiogenic strategies. Professor Jae-Kwan Song, from University of Ulsan, will deliver a lecture on previously unidentified roles of dipeptidyl pedtidase-4 (DPP-4) and insulin-like growth factor-1 as key proteins of valvular calcification process and crucial targets for protecting calcific aortic valve disease development.
