Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We hypothesize that the interaction between host nasal cavity epithelium cell and the habitual Staphylococcus aureus influence the pathophysiologic condition of allergic rhinitis. To elucidate this, we tried construction of in vitro nasal epithelium model. A long-term air-liquid interface culture induces the differentiation of human nasal epithelial cell line. After long-term air-liquid interface culture but not normal liquid culture, tricellulin, one of tight junction proteins, is localized at the cell to cell junction. It is expected that a long-term air-liquid interface culture of human nasal epithelial cell line becomes a useful in vitro model of normal human nasal epithelium.
