Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have found for the first time that methylmercury induces brain-specific expression of TNFα. Further, although research on TNFα has been actively carried out worldwide, induction of TNFα expression via tmRT1 is not known. The results obtained by this study not only clearly explain the mechanism of methylmercury toxicity, but also lead to the creation of a new research field called: induction of TNFα expression via tmRT1.
