Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A cell array consisting of 200,000 olfactory epithelial cells was formed on a microchamber array chip enabling cell alignment. After installing this cell array chip in the automated single-cell analysis and isolation system equipped with a perfusion system, the cells were subjected to time-lapse cytometry. Olfactory cells which transiently responded to stimulation of specific odor molecules were identified, and then the desired olfactory cells were isolated at single cell level. Each isolated single cell was subjected to genetic analysis to identify a combination of olfactory receptor groups that bind odor molecules specifically.
