Research Abstract |
In this study, it is aimed for the elucidation of the role of microRNA in the neurologic intractable disease. The 3' UTR of disease-related genes, which is estimated to be regulated by microRNA, were proceeded to determine the entire sequence in the patient to the extent possible. For multiple sclerosis, a total of 14 genes, such as IL2RA and IL7R was selected. With respect to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, we selected a total of 16 genes such as FUS and Alsin. The significant mutation by a patient by each gene was not found, but we assumed that I was planning to synthesize the result and data with other projects.
