Opens a new possibility to treat innate immune diseases 
Prof. Kim Seyun, KAIST metabolism signaling network Lab 

On the past April 25, KAIST research team headed by Prof. Kim Seyun in the Dept. of Biological Sciences revealed the fact that IPMK, a core enzyme of inositol biosynthetic metabolism, controls the signaling network which mediates innate immune reactions for sepsis, etc. This research has found a new principle of sepsis caused by microbial infection, etc. opening a new direction to facilitate treatment of innate immune diseases. 

Finds IPMK’s (Inositol metabolic enzyme) function of transmitting immune signal  

According to the data of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, patients of septic shock occurring domestically are about 70,000 in a year and death rate within 30 days is 20-30 percent, higher than stroke or myocardial infarction. However, danger of this disease is not well known enough. Moreover, difficulty follows because there has been no treatment found except for inhibiting the symptom. KAIST research team headed by Prof. Kim Seyun, under the support by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning’s project of developing neuroscience core technology, carried out a joint research with SNU research team headed by Prof. Seong Rho hyun. Prof. Kim Seyun explained, “Though it is known that inositol biosynthetic metabolism plays an important role in cell growth or controlling energy metabolism, it was still unclear whether it has roles in the immune system. So we have been devoted to perform research in order to find the possible immune function of IPMK, a core enzyme in inositol biosynthetic metabolism.” 
The research team induced septic shock on the mice whose IPMK enzyme was genetically removed from macrophage, an important cell in charge of innate immunity and observed the result, finding a remarkably low level of inflammation and high survival rates in the group of IPMK knockout mice. According to Prof. Kim, when germs invade the human body, macrophage activates immune reaction through the signal transmitting protein called TRAF 6 (àTRAF6). TRAF 6 protein is degraded by the protein called ubiquitin to keep the concentration on its proper level, when IPMK controls the level of TRAF 6 protein in macrophage by directly interacting with TRAF 6 and obstructing its destabilization. Therefore, this study has found that on condition that there is no IPMK protein, TRAF 6 protein keeps low by degradation, which reduces the induction of inflammatory cytokines caused by excessive microbial inflammation and inhibits pathological phenomenon like sepsis.  Research team manufactured the peptide which intercepts protein interaction between IPMK and TRAF 6 and found that, using this, it is possible to lower the inflammatory reactions caused by endotoxins. 
Kim Eunha, a PhD student, participated in this study as the first author and this research appeared on Science Advances drawing attention from the scientific community. Prof. Kim clarified, “We are expecting that the result of this study will contribute to the development of treating many diseases related to excessive innate immune reactions including sepsis.“ 

“Will be devoted to the study of basic science for the future” 

Metabolism signaling network lab, which is composed of 10 graduate students and one researcher is currently exploring the functions of biosynthetic enzymes for inositol phosphates which are known to mediate various signaling actions. Besides, since 2014, the lab was selected from Samsung Science & Technology Foundation and carrying out research to find a new kind of metabolic chemicals capable of controlling the growth of cancer cells and signal transduction. 

Prof. Kim Seyun, head of the lab, clarified, “Despite the growing attention of the academy to inositol phosphate biosynthetic metabolism, there are little findings about its physiological function and working mechanism on a molecular level. Through such research, we will do our best to find metabolites controlling the growth of cancer cells and work on the functions of new chemicals in order to develop the therapeutics for the treatment of diverse diseases.” He also emphasized that piling up the research power on basic science will be a good base for scientific advance and social development in the future. Even at this moment, research for the health and future of mankind is carrying on. We want to give a big hand to these people who won’t stop daring challenges and passion for a new field.
