Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The greatest result of this research is the development of wPGSA (weighted Parametric Gene Set Analysis) method which comprehensively predicts control factors from gene expression data taking stochastic control relationship into account (Kawakami et al. Nucleic Acids Research 2016). Prediction of transcriptional regulators by the wPGSA method is not limited to atopic dermatitis, but it has revealed the involvement of regulatory factors that have not been known until now in many life phenomena / diseases, and we are conducting joint research with more than 20 experimental groups.
