Research Abstract |
To exchange the information for the collaborative research between U.S.and Japanese molecular scientists, the symposium inviting scientists from both country was organized. Following are the main item discussed at the meeting for the study of immune regulation and the mechanisms of cell transduction associated to cytokine receptors as well as lymphocyte functioning molecules. 1) The role of MHC in immune respones, especialy for early T cell differentiation. 2) The functional role of cytokine (IL-6 etc) and their receptors (PBSF/SDF-1) in immune response. 3) Involvement of lymphocyte functioning molecules (CD40, CD40L,CD95, CD95L,CD80, CD86) in normal as well as abnormal immune response. 4) Molecular and functional analysis of signal transduction associated molecules such as HSI TRAF,Jak, Src, Stats etc.families.
