| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied the mechanism of the response of mutation induction suppression (MIS), a protective response of skin tissue to UV genotoxicity, using a mechanistic model based on the Keap1-Nrf2 system, which controls antioxidative responses in mammalian cells. We performed an analysis of global gene expression changes in the MIS response and detected the induction of genes related to apoptosis and cell proliferation, which suggests that MIS is based on a tissue turnover mechanism with apoptosis and hyperplasia. The analysis has also suggested that the Keap1-Nrf2 system functions in the tissue recovery process from the skin damage produced after UV exposures. We also estimated the amounts of UV-induced DNA damage necessary for the MIS induction.
