Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Transposable elements are dispersed throughout the mammalian genome. Appropriate regulation of these elements is indispensable for the survival of the embryos/fetuses. In this study, using the mouse system, I found that the application of the IL17, one of the interleukin family members, to the cells could repress their transcription. Furthermore, I identified an IL17D receptor responsible for the immobilization of the transposable elements and the downstream signaling pathways as well. In the absence of IL17D signaling pathways, apoptosis signals are concomitantly upregulated, thereby cells with low quality are removed for supporting the proper embryonic development.
