Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research porject, we aimed to create a novel methodology for analyzing Influential minority cells at the "beginning of activation" and "beginning of cell-cell interaction" by collecting only appropriate cell states using the "output (secretion) of cellular responses" as an indicator. As a result, we succeeded in tracking lymphocyte activation by secretion imaging and identifying transiently induced genes during the transition process of activation. Next, we focused on lymphocyte interaction-dependent secretion of IL-6 from synovial fibroblasts in rheumatoid arthritis and secretion of cytotoxic molecules by T cells in cancer immunity, and succeeded in visualizing these secretory events associated with cell-cell interactions by improving the throughput of single cell secretion imaging.
