Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is (1) analysis of relationship among allergic genes and biological clock genes and environments, and (2) establishment of an epoch-making prevention and treatment for allergic diseases. As results, (1) expressions of biological clock genes (eq. CLOCK gene) were changeable during day and night, and production of interferon (IFN)-gannma that suppresses allergic reactions was suppressed by pH change. (2) The binding mode between interleukin (IL-18) and IL-18 receptor became clear, and then development of new medicines that are able to regulate IL-18 signaling was started for allergic diseases.
