Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Homeostasis of intracellular zinc level is regulated by zinc transporter (ZIP). We hypothesized that zinc transporter family is inovolved in salivary gland development and regeneration. In the analysis of ZIP6 knockout mouse, there is no morphological difference of salivary glands between knockout mouse and wild one. It is suggested that ZIP6 may participate in water secretion but not in protein secretion. ZIP10 was found to be inhibition of cell death of NS-SV-DC (human normal salivary gland cell lines showing ductal cell phenotype) induced by irradiation. These results may be expected to give important finding for ZIP10 to be a promising target molecule of dry mouth and be of some benefit for renewed medical treatment of saliva secretion disorder by using control of ZIP10 expression.
