Research Abstract |
We established the efficient a model mouse and assay system for searching antipruriticsubstances from natural source for the therapeutic drug of serious itches such as atopicdermatitis. This method monitors the frequency of scratching behavior of the hen egg-whitelysozyme (HEL)-sensitized mouse (= chronic itching model) which exposed restraint stress.HEL-sensitized ddY mouse, in contrast to ddY mouse, have shown worsened the itchiness bystress like humans' atopic dermatitis case. For the search of the protein itch-related factor, weperformed proteome analysis. We screened the antipruritic activity of several natural sourcesand found new seeds and isolated the successively active substance.
