Outline of Final Research Achievements

The secretion of the anterior pituitary hormone such as growth hormone and prolactin is strictly controlled by the endocrine signal from the hypothalamus. The elucidation of the pituitary control mechanisms is an important medical interest because it leads to the elucidation of the cause of intractable diseases caused by abnormal secretion of the pituitary anterior lobe hormone and the development of therapeutic methods. In this study, we found that Galnt17 plays an important role in maintaining the function of dopamine nerve projecting from the midbrain ventral to the striatum through analysis of Galnt17 mutant mice and others.
