Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The goal of this study is to develop a prediction system for onset of severe ocular surface disease, Stevens-Johnson syndrome. In this study, we investigated new disease-related genes using whole-genome sequencing analysis focusing on the possibility of newborn mutation because Stevens-Johnson syndrome, which is severe ocular surface disease, is extremely rare. Stevens - Johnson syndrome with severe ocular complications often occur after taking cold medicines, so preliminary high - risk prediction can contribute to the prevention of the onset of this disease, and the discovery of new disease - related genes which mgith contribute the pathological condition of this disease, is expected to promote elucidation and contribute to the development of new therapeutic drugs.
