| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Abnormal aggregation of causative proteins is involved in age-related diseases, including dementia and type II diabetes. A curative treatment has not been developed thus the prevention of the disease is important. As a preventive method, we focused on unused seaweed growing in Tottori Prefecture and investigated the usefulness of seaweed components. As a result, we found that inhibition of the formation of abnormal protein aggregates which related diseases. It showed that the seaweed, which grows abundantly and is familiar in Japan, was usefulness.
